Rebel Commandcr-in-Chief Says He Has Plenty of Arms and Ammunition to Insure Success of Siege of Mexico City

Undergo Untold Hardships, Having Only Such Food and Water as They Could Carry - Federal Officers Are to Be Intercepted
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCHl

VILLA AHUTMADA, Dec. A. Fifty five hundred rebels, forming necleus of the army by which General Villa savs will march on to Mexico City and overthrow the Huerta dictatorship were to enter Chihuahua City, the state capital tonight Before leaving Chl- buahua. General MercadO, at the re quest of United States Consul Marion fletcher and other cOnsuls, left 200 sol diers for police duty the promise being made that the rebels on entering the city would not molest these men. The federal police took fright at the rebel approach. and fled. The consuls then prevailed on the citizens to do the policing.
 It was in this city that Villa, now in supreme command of the military fore es of the revolution, said he would gather about him 10000 men and start south by the way of Torreon and Zaca- tecas to Mexico City. The report that Zacatecas with 3OOOO population, the capital of a rich mining district, is all ready being attacked, indicated that there are rebels to the south in great numbers. Scattered bands of rebels, ranging each from a few hundred to several thousand are to be impressed into the main army according to Villas plan and he will have at least 10000 men when he goes on to the high pla- teau leading to the capital of the re- public.
 Already equipped with machine guns, artillery and millions of rounds of ann munition by his victories in the north, Villa said he is no longer hampered by the inability to get arms from foreign sources, but that he could readily Ob- tain them from the federals who are reported in the few remaining northern strongholds to be ready to eYacuate. Defeat of the federals in their retreat from Juarez is known to have placed great quantities of arms in the hands of the rebels.
 Rebel advices were that FredericO Move, civil governor of Chihuahua, made elaborate preparations for the reception of Villa. having put in gala state the palace where Villa once q bandit now will command and that Will Ia will probably occupy the home va cated by one of the millionaire Terraz- as families It was from Chihuahua that Villa. 19 years ago, adopted the career of bandit because he was ord- cred arrested on a charge of having killed an army officer. Now he not only himself, but the men who rallied around him, occupying the quarters of the federal officials who sought him as an autlaw

Important Central Avenue Real Estate Transfer Marks First Step ill the Project for Handsome Business Structure
FOUNDATION FOR
 EIGHT STORIES
When Completed First Two Floors Will Probably Be come the Future Home for the Goldwater Depart ment Store

One of the most important real estate transactions which has oc- cured for many months in Phoenix was the purchase on Wednesday of this week of the Irvine property, just opposite the Hotel Adams on Central avenue, by Dwight B. Heard and his associates. It is understood that among the others interested in this purchase are Messrs. w. H. Brophy of Bisbee. Barry Goldwater of this city. A. c. Bartlett of Chicago and w J. Watson of the latter city.
 The transaction was arranged through MT. Heards office, and in speaking of the matter yesterday Mir. Heard stated:
 It is our purpose to erect on this tract, which has a frontage of 6912 feet on Central avenue and a depth on the alley of 150 feet, a modern business and office building of con crete-steeI which We shall hope to make a decided credit to Phoenix. The foundations and structure will be built to carry an eight-story building, although it is probable that not more than four to six stories will be built at first. The building will be strictly fire-proof, will have a large basement extending under the sidewalk, will have complete steam heating and ventilating plant, vacuum cleaner plant two sets of elevators, in addition to a freight elevator. and we shall hope to make of it a building which is second to none in equipment, finish and convenience"
 It is understood that F. L. May berry. of Mayberry & Parker, archi- tects of the Center street bridge, the Goodrich building and the Goldberg buiIding-al cOncrete-steel structures has recently been in conference with the new owners, and that full plans will soon be under consideration and that actual construction will be under way early in the new year.
 An interesting comment on the growth of values in Phoenix is that when MT. Irvine came to Phoenix in the 70's he bought the half block in which this property is included for S6SO. which is quite contrast to the SEQ 0OO that was paid for the 69lz- foot frontage on Wednesday.
 The owners of this property feel that there is a demand in Phoenix for just the kind of building they pro pose. and that they will have very little difficulty, in view of the un- usual equipment offered. in having the property rented before it's completion. It is understood that Cioldwaters are considering the first two stories and basement as a permanent location TOT their establishment.
