PAREDON, State Of Coahulia, Next
CO, May 18.-The advance of General
Francisco Villas Constitutionalist ar
my against Saltillo has been temper
arily checked by the Federal artillery
The rebel force was moving to the
northern side of Saltillo encountered
heavy federal force, supported by
heavy guns, near Ramos AriZpe. The
federals poured heavy fire against
the Constitutionalists. the latter retir-
ing to walt heavier artillery.
Throughout the night there was in
termittent firing on all sides of the be-
sieged city and the rebel positions
were moved closer to the outposts of
the defenders. General Villa made a
personal tour Of the outposts after
which he said he was satisfied that
this week would see the Constitu-
tionalist flag floating over the capital
of Coahuila"

camp was astir for a renewal of the
long range fighting. A heavy detach-
ment of cavalry moved against Flora,
where body of Federals had posted
themselves with their cannon
Scouts reported to headquarters that
some difficulty had been encountered
by the troops sent against Saltillo from
the Northeast because of the noun
famous condition of the country
Get Guns Into Action.
The rebels were compelled to move
cautiously to avoid ambuscades and it
was a difficult job to drag the big guns
over the steep road
The removing of the wounded, who
fell at Flora, to the hospitals in the
rear were the first grim evidence of
severe fighting at Saltillo.
The wounded men could give no idea
of the number of soldiers who were
killed and wounded, but believed the
number was heavy. Long after sunset
the darkness was split by rifle fire and
the bombardment of the rebel guns.
On account of the heavy reserve force
of the Constituencies, it was ex-
pected that the Federals would re-
treat during the night into Saltillo.
A report was current that Villa
might postpone the grand assault upon
the city proper until more ammunition
could be brought from Tampico, but
the rebel officers would tell nothing of
their plans.
