Tex, July 10.-Guaymas, cne Of the
most important seaports on the Mexi-
can west coast, was evacuated by fed

General Carranza.
The constitutionalist commander in.

agree to an afmistice until the federals
should leave the city by boat, the truce
being to save property of non-com-
batants and unnecessary slaughter.
General Carranza has authorized Cen
eral Alvereto to establish municipal
government Immediately.
It is understood the terms Of evac-
uation announced yesterday were car
ried out, in which the American naval
vessels in the harbor guaranteed the
armistice, with q promise also that
after it was over the federal gunboat
would not lombard the newly -estab-
lished constitutional garrison.

'sConcerning the disaster which be-
fell the column which rallied out Of
Guadalajara and which was met by the
forces OF General Lucio Blanco, re-
port they have been entirely dispersed.
They made shameful flight. The
number Of killed, 1t is impossible to
estimate. We fought over some 100
kilometers. We are now engaging the
scattered bands which have fed to the
mountains. All the federal artillery
was found scattered over the country
covered by the battle"
0bregon said he was certain his own
losses would be small because of the
feeble federal resistance He said no
prominent constitutional officers were

lowered with cons.s tency just around

In order to improve the situation it
was decided to publish fraternity stand
