zapatistas still Active

The program Of qualification will, 1t
is expected, be put to some severe
tests. A band of adherents of zapata
fred on a a federal troop train run
ming from the capital to Cuernayaca
yesterday and 60 soldiers were killed
or wounded. Similar bands of zapa-
tistas continue committing raids in
the federal district itself and in the
state Of Morelos indicating that some
mountaineer rebels to the south of
the capital are determined to keep up
their guerilla warfare despite the
negotiations between the government
and the brothers zapta.
While the federal government ex-
presses itself as sanguine of success
in the northern states, lack Of har-
mony between the various bands Of
rebels in that region was developed
on the arrival here of representatives
of Orozco and other chiefs.
Today and tomorrow are to be de
voted to conferences between these
rebel representatives and the minis
ters of war and interior. The rail-
roads between the capital and the
north are still interrupted. There
has been practically no nail ;tom The
