Mexico City, Feb 12.-Thc Rebels un-
der General Felix Diaz started TO advance
on the National Palace shortly before
nine this morning. The rebels appeared
to be using heavier cannon than esterday
and directed their fire toward the Ma
tional Palace and to the higher build
ings in the center Of the business district,
where many federal machine guns and RI
fiemen are posted. The effort made by
the Federals to isolate the rebels from
the water supply was ineffective. because
Of artcSian wells where the rebels are.
The Federal forces were strengthened in
the night bv reinfOrcCmentS OF artillery
and infantry.
The suggestion Of the foreign diplomats
that neutral zone De established is con
sidercd unfcasiblc by the Mexican gov
ernment as it is impossible to tell III
which direction action may be shifted.
Because Of the long range Of cannon being
used there's no place i'll the city which
can be considered safe.

he criticised the course Of the Pujjo com
