 The official report follows:
 Ut is known that Generals Miguel Alvarez and Ignacio Munoz fell in the combat. General Osorno and a good number of federal officials were exc cuted.
 Regarding the fight at zertuche. the report says in part.
 There were captured also a gen eral and 32 officers composing his staff. All were executed immedi, ately."
 The report of General Villa said that the retreating garrison of Mon clova had been joined by the forces which had retreated from Paredon previously and that this juncture ac- counted for the number of federals on the trains which were captured.
 General Villa stated the battle in the outskirts of Paredon began at 10:40 D. m and ended at midnight, and that the enemy was routed en- iirely.
 He also reported a large quantity of rolling stock had been captured with all the transport wagons of the federals, much ammunition and sew eral machine guns, in addition to nine cannon and considerable quantity of arms.
 The constitutionalist losses said the dispatch, were relatively small. General Villa paid high compliment to the officers and men under his command. He told how he had sent four brigades to Zertuche to check the advance of the forces which had been driven from that point previously by General Madero
 This movement, he said, had re- suited in the capture of the three troop trains, a supply of provisions, quantity of artillery, ammunition and the general staff numbering 32, who were executed
 Word has been received that Gen eral Francisco Murgia, having occu- pied Monclova and left a garrison there, is leading the major portion of his force to Paredon with the in- tention of taking part in the Saltillo campaign. He has opened the Ma tional railways line from Piedras Negras to Bocatoche, station about 20 kilometers south of Monclova, and will continue to press repair work.
 A dispatch from Durango stated that General Carranza expected to leave that point today for Torreon. Seven prominent attorneys from Torreon, Saltillo and Monterey have been confined in jail by constitution aist officials on charges of pernicious political activity, according to word which reached here today. The names | of the seven men, said to be well known throughout northern Mexico, could not be learned here.
 The execution of General Ozorno iand another general whose name was not giver together with 32 members of the unknown generals staff and other federal officials, indicates the bitterness with which the campaign is l being waged about Saltillo.
 General Ozorno's advance in rank has been rapid It is said he held captains commission but two years ago. General Ignacio Munoz, who was killed in the battle at Paredon, was nephew of General Porfirio Diaz, for mer president of Mexico. and was widely known socially in Mexico City. General Miguel Alvarez, also killed in the battle, began his military ca. reer as a second lieutenant in the army of Francisco Madero. with whom he is said to have been a favorite be. fore the ilLfated president met his death.
 General Guardiola, who was in com mand of the federals. had been com. mandant at Piedras Negras. which he evacuated after the occupation of Vera Cruz by American troops.
