MEXICO CITY IN zAPATA'S
 HANDS NOW


 Washington. Nov. 26-General Blanco left Mexico City at a. m. yesterday and the forces of zapata immediately took possession of the city, according to despatches to the state department today.
 These despatches made nov men ton of any disturbances in the capi- tai up to that time.
 Although communication with Mexico City was difficult, officials here were able to get in touch with General Blancoi took away with him all rolling stock that could be used in transporting troops
 Most of the wires connecting the capital with the outside world have been cut.
 General Villas troops are reported a few miles north of Mexico City and officials here think a, joint occupation of the capital with the Zapata forces is likely as there is a complete un- derstanding between the two factions.
 The forces of Villa, according to of ficiaI telegrams, are closing in on Tampico from San Luis Potosi and have already reached the oil fields in vicinity of Tampico. The Villa advance guard has given assurances that the foreign oil interests will be protected.
 Recent reports from state depart ment agents who have been in touch with Zapata led officials here to be- lieve the southern chief would main tain order in the city.

 Official communications of the warning European nations were so cautious they gave lit tie new information as to the situation on the various fields of battle today but unofficial advices indicated that fighting was proceeding with great in tensity in Belgium and north western France as well as in Russian Poland.
 Military activity in the west is centered on the line from the Belgian town of Ypres. across the border to La Bassee in France. This latest phase of the war is believed to mark another German effort to push forward ta the English Chan mel and it is said the battle is blazing forth with all the fury and desperation of the former German attacks.
 The Germans have brought up reinforeements and new heavy guns and it is expected l in London that the next few days will be marked by some lof the most deadly encounters of the war. Definite news as to the outcome of the crucial struggle in the east is still lack ing.
 Private despatches from Pct lrograd state that the Russians have made an important for ward movement on the Czen- stechowa- -Gracow line which, roughly parallels the border of ISilesia and extends from Po- Hand to Austrian territory near 1 the fortress of Cracow.
 l F2nssians on Offensive
 The latest official statement from I Petrograd says that the Russians ard T still on the offensive on the main I battle ground between the Vistula and I Warta rivers and that heavy lcs5eU I have been inflicted on the retreatnG e 1 enemy. Austria and Germanys how I ever, state that the battle stiu tn
 progress and that the issue had not been decided
 PortugaPs decision to send mi
 forces to the aid of the allies when in the opinion of the executive such action is necessary, has been received
 with enthusiasm throughout the coun- try There were no indications how s ever, when this move would be made
