Washington, Dec. 11.-Official re-
ports from Rear Admiral Fletcher to
the Navy Department today said the
Constitutionalists were making prog
res in their attack on Tampico, and
thus far no foreigners had been IN
jured. The non-combatants were cen.
tered near the water front where they
are under protection of the guns of the
American cruiser Chester and the gun
boats Wheeling and Tacoma. The bat
tleships Rhode Island and Michigan
were farther out.
Fighting has continued since yester-
day, and from the harbor the Ameri-
can naval officers have observed that
strategetically the Constitutionalists
seemed to have the better Of 1t.
If the foreigners safety becomes
doubtful in the neutral zone, they will
be taken aboard the ships. Some are
already aboard.

Washington, Jan. 2S.--Atter a eau
Gus of republican senators, today, at
which plan to fight for confirfa.

nations was agreed upon, Senator
Smoot moved an executive session of
the senate, with the idea OF holding
the session as long as a quorum
could be kept. The republicans had
promised to remain in their seats to
hold the quorum and = repeat the
motion every day. II democrats
we're equally determine , permit
no combinations other than army,
navy and diplomatic, and a livery
struggle was probable.
The republicans declined to con-
slider the proposal made By the dems
ocratic caucus for joint committee
OF ten to go over the nominations
and select some for confirmation.
The proposal found no support
among republicans. In legislative
session Senator Martin, democratic
floor leader, stated that the demo
Gratis would continue to oppose &c
tion on the majority OF the Taft ap-
He declared that the
democrats do not fear the effect of a
filibuster on legislation, adding that |
if any appropriation bills failed of
passage before March 4, they could
be passed in the extra session.
The republican CAUCUS presented
solid front to insist upon confirma-
tions. Senator Dixon and Senator
Poindexter, who have joined the pro-
gressive party, were not there, but
other republicans classed as progress
sives were present and apparently in
accord with the plan of the caucus,
which held that each case must
stand on its merits. 1t was decided
to revoke the agreement to proceed
'irst with army and navy appoint
nents, the republicans holding that

faith by their deliberate manner of

BY receiving 43 out Of a possible
rs votes, Senator Fall was assured
that the legislature was sincere in its
action when it reelected him to the
United States senate in June Of last
year. In fact, he received four more
votes than were given him at that
time.
Both houses were crowded with
spectators when the vote was taken.
The galleries were packed with the
friends Of the various men upon whonl
il was expected a ballot would be talk.
en-. when the result was announced
a cheer went up that was heard for
many blocks beyond the capitol build
ing. voting began PROMPTLY at noon
The senate, being the smaller body,
hnished its balloting earlier than did
the house. Many senators left their
seats and rushed into the hall Of ths
lower house and witnessed the casting
OF the final votes.
There was much jubilation in the
republican camp over the reelection Of
Senator Fall and he received copgra-
tulations from all sides. It may be
said, however, that there never was
the SLIGHTEST doubt as to his election
in the minds Of Judge Fall or Of his
friends.
Considerable resentment is felt in
Santa Fe and throughout the state
against Governor William c. McDoa-
aid and his legal adviser for their ae-
ton which made another election nee
essary: the refusal Of the governor
