Mexico City, Feb. 13.-Up to noon,
when the shells Of the contendno
forces had torn their way through
the heart Of the city for four hours,
nothing like decisive result had
been achieved either by the federals
or the rebels. 1t had been practical
ly an artillery duel, although occa.
sionalIy small arm fire played a
vicious part in the battle.
The swift and crushing action prom.

veaIed On the contrary the fighting
was Of monotonous regularity, the
federal troops slowly pounding the
rebel position and endeavoring to
silence Diaz's guns in order that the
final charge might be made with less
sacrifice of life. To this the rebels
replied with steady fire, but they
we're more chary in throwing away
their ammunition and appeared to
take better aim than ever.
Most Of the rebel fire was directed
at the federal batteries, but one OF
Diaz's batteries from time to time
dropped shells over the city into the
grounds Of the national palace and
onto that ancient building itself, the
walls of which withstood the bom
bardment we'll.
At the beginning Of this firing there
was a great force Of federal soldiers
in the palace grounds. When the
shower Of shells became heavier a
federal battery received orders to
reply with vigor and under cover OF
