Preside, Tex. Dec. 31.-The bat
tie between 5000 rebels under Gen.
Ortega and the northern division of
the Mexican federal army, entrench-
ed around Ojinaga, Mexico, across
the border from this place, still was
in progress when darkness fell last
night. No bullets came across the
border.
The forces had been engaged for
thirty-six hours and many had been
killed and wounded. The federal
forces. crippled and disorganized by
the first rebel onslaught, chung to
the hillside trenches where their
leaders had decided to make a last
stand. They rallied somewhat from
the panic that seized many of them
with the first volleys of the rebels
sghen daylight disclosed the position
Of Ortega'smen, and put up plucky
fight against heavy odds, although
their losses were heavy from wounds
and assertions. Many wounded and
deserters waded waist deep through
the river to the American side.
DEATH THEIR PORTION.
Although the rebels tonight APP
peared to have much advantage the
outcome Of the struggle vas not
cieariy defined. That me ftS "a, "a,
willsurrender is improbable. bed Ne
Gen. Ortega has explicit orders to
execute the so-called volunteers and
their commanders, Generals Orozco,
Salazar, Rojas, Orpinal, Alanis. and
Gomez. Eighteen hundred yolun-
teers also come under the sentence
of death imposed by order of Gen.
Villa. That the federals with all
their generalsexcept perhaps Castro,
Mancilla and Landa, of the regulars,
will be forced over to the United
States IN case OF defeat, was thought
on the American side to be most
likely.
The land which slopes down to the
shsllow and muddy Rio Grande on
the American side all day presented
the busy aspect Of the rear of an
army in action. Cavalrymen of the
border patrol galloped along the
waters edge ready to send back any
Mexican soldiers who attempted to
cross or to stop possible general
rush of the whole federal army across
the border. Only wounded soldiers
were given assistance.

Mayors Annual Report.
TO THE COUNCIL:

TO THE COUNCIL:
Pursuant to a custom that / have
followed for many years, / herein
submit an annual report in writing
of the administration Of city affairs
during the past year. While some
of the figures for the current year
are not based on annual reports, they
are approximately correct, as the
few days not included will not ma
terially affect the results recorded.
! have thought it best to make this
report in advance Of my retirement
from 1ffice, in order that the figures
compiled may be accessible to my
honorable successor as soon as pos
sible for such purposes as he may
desire to use them.
The finances Of the city are in a
very satisfactory condition. The
bonded debt of the city was RED Nced
800 during the year, deficit of
So, 033 on Jan. LIST and a floating
debt Of about 81, 500 were paid and a
balance Of about So, 600 is on hand in
the general fund at the close of the
years business. The bonded debt
now consists of $4,000 of refunded
o. V. Railroad bonds due in 1921 and
S66, 900 of 1910 and 1911 High School
bonds due in 20 years from dates of
issue. Besides this bonded debt of
$4,000, there is an unpaid balance
of 81, 425 on a sewer contract, "a de-
tailed report of which have made
to your honorable body and the cur
rent bill for street lighting from
Sept. /, 1918, amounting to about
50, 800, which is undergoing investi-
cation The street lighting contract
expired Nov. Is, 1918, and the bill
since that date is without legal au-
thority under a recent decision. In
Guiding this bill, the indebtedness of
the city is all told $74,225. while
there are uncollected claims of near
ly $4,000 due the city. The revenues
Of 1914 may be safely estimated at
$85, 900 for the general fund, but
since the courts have construed the
school debt to be a current liability,
the contracting of new debts for
1914 beyond the actual running ex-
.penses of the government is limited
to a few thousand dollars. barely
enough to renew the water and
street lighting contracts.
STREETS AND SEWERS.
During the year more than $780,
600 was expended on streets and
sewers, OF this "a. TOO was a deferr-
ed payment on the Bitulithic streets
built in 1912. about half Of which is
due from property owners and
should have been recovered by suits
long since. More than $4,000 was
spent in extending the system Of
drainage sewers and was wisely ex-
pended. Much Of the rest was spent
in repairing macadam streets, some
Of which was not wisely spent. I'M
