HUERTA ARMIES ARE
CRUMBL|NGA AWAY
Northern Federal Armies Ap-
pear to Have Lost Heart
After Repeated Defeats.

Recent successes Of the constitution
alist armies in northern Mexico suggest
the idea that the federal forces are be-
coming discouraged and are crumbling
rapidly. General Villa is credited with
the statement that the battle of Sdltiilo
will be the fiercest on record IN the
campaign. but in spite of this there
are many signs that the Huertista
forces are losing hope and are melting
away.
Constitutionalists here expect the cap
ture Of Tampico this week. Troops can
he sent there by rail from TIE region
about Monterey.
Large quantities of artillery and am
munition are falling into constitution
alist hands. This means serious weak
eni1g of the Huertista capacity for re-
sistance.
In the territory of Tepic. General
Obregon in the last few days captured a
force of 1,70O men. with 1000. .1oC rounds
OF ammunition, a number OF machine
guns. three field pieces. and 2.o00 rifles.
The federal force guarding the town OF
Acapancta surrendered.
In addition to this, the constitutional
lists have won an important "ictory
forty miles from San Luis Potcsi, cap
turing 1,SO0 prisoners and vast Iuanti-
ties of war munitions.
A third victory was won ty Gen.
Pablo Gonzales, in command between
Monterey and sSaltillo. Seven Canhon
and much artillery ammunition were
taken.
These victories, all occurring in the
last several days, tend to bear out
stories from Mexico City about the
situation there, and seem to Indicate the
Hucrtista forces are losing their srip.
Indications are that unless the mill
tary tide turns soon and the federals
win an important victory, which will
brace them up. they will speedily so to
pieces under the constant battering of
the constitutionalist forces under Villa,
Gonzales, Obregon, and otncr COM

REBELS TELL ALIENS
Admiral Mayo's Dispatch De-
scribes Friendly Offers of
ConStituti0naliStS.

The official text OF the report re-
! ceived at the Navy Department from
! Admiral Badger. regarding conditions
at Tampieo, and the precautions being
taken to protect the lives of Ameri-
cans and other foreigners. was made

In a statement issued by the depart
ment. il was said: Admiral Mayo has
reported TO Admiral Badger that at
o'clock yesterday afternoon, General
Gonzales. commanding the rebel forces
at Tampico. sent an officer on board
the American flagship with copy of
letter addressed to all foreign con-
suls at Tampico. notifying them to have
their nationals take refuge on the
ships in the harbor or TO come to his
camp. where their safety would be
guaranteed. The officer requested Ad-
miral Mayo to communicate the con-
tents of this letter to the captains OF
all ships present. which was DONE
At an earlier hour this morning Ad-
miral Mayo had reported the receipt OF
reliable information that constitution
alists around Tampico had received
tillery, which were rapidly being placed
in position.
The admirars message continued:
AS soon as the artillery is placed n
serious attack and probable lombard
Inent Of Tampico will be commenced"
Admiral Mayo's message stated fur
ther that the constitutionalist forces
number over 5000. He says that the
cOnstitutionalists are friendly to
American citizens and that they will
make every effort to protect foreign
properties. avoiding as much as pos
sible taking positions which might
draw federal fire upon them.
The admiraIs report further states
thta he Is Informed that General
Caballeros has publisneed in bulletin
form TO his troops the entire corre-
spondence with him regarding the
protection of foreign property and en-
Joining his troops to use care to pre-
vent injury to any such property.

j. s. TRIES TO LEARN
DISPOSITION OF ARMS
Badger Unable to Say Whether
German Ship Landed Num-
tiOnS for Huerta.

The Navy Department is still await
ing information whether the German
steamship CeciIe put ashore at Puerto
Mexico any portion OF the arms and
ammunition consigned To the lIuerta
government at the City of Mexico.
In reply to Assistant Secretary Roose-
velt's cable of last night to Admiral
Badger. word was received today that
the admiral is without information as
10 whether any war material was
landed. a message stated. however,
that diligent. though discreet, inquiry
would be made and the department
would be promptly advised of any in
formation obtained.
Some little surprise is expressed at
the uncertainty which still surrounds
the Cecile and her cargo, as it is
pointed out that the German vessel, fol-
lowing her departure from Puerto MeXi-
co, was last reported at Vera Cruz,
where Admiral Badger should be able
to ascertain what disposition had been
made of that portion OF her cargo in
question.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt stated
today that he had cabled instructions to
Admiral Mayo to use every endeavor
TO bring all Americans out or the
Tampico district Immediately. News of
the opening of the CoastltutIoualiStS' at
tack upon Tampico is hourly expected.

Congressman Dies Says ''Mur-
derer Huerta Is Preferable
to PitiIess Bandit Villa"

Congressman Martin Dies. in a speech
in the House on the pension appropria-
ton bill which passed last night. de-
cIared that the Mexican people are in
capable of self government. They have
never shown such capability, he urged,
in detailing revolution after revolution.
Talk to me about establishing a
stable government in Mexico by placing
Villa in the presidency" exclaimed Mr..
Dies. IF were compelled to chose be-
tweer murderers, I would take that
buH-headed old murderer Huerta, in
preference to that rapacious. pitiless,
BIC cd thirsty. rowing bandit and plum
dcrer of mems homes, villages ana
towns, known as Villa.
What kind of a government will en-
sue in Mexico If we bring about the
downfall of the present dictator and
set I'D another in his place? You Will

Congressman Fess, of Ohio. asked the
of the states just across

what has been seen in Texas in the
way of Improvements and in national
spirit.
