ROUTS COMBINED FEDERAL ARMY NEAR SAN PEDRO IN
 NINE DAYS OF FIGHTING.
HURRY CALL FOR AMMUNITION
Asks That 100000 Rounds Be Sent to Him at Scene of the Battle. Losses of Both Armies Will Reach 5000 Killed and Wounded.

Juarez, Mexico, April 14.-A nine days battle, possibly more desperate than that at Gomez Palacio and Tor reon, has resulted in a victory for the rebels under General Villa, ac- cordng to an official report made public here this afternoon.
 The combined rebel force came upon the reunited Federals, said in the last days of the battle to have numbered 15,000 at San Pedro de las Colonias, state of Coahuila, 40 miles east of Torreon. Killed and wounded on both sides, it is said, will number in the neighborhood of 5000.
 The rebels claimed to have taken 700 prisoners. The Federal army is said to have included the Torreon garrison, led out of that city in re- treat by General Velasco, those of General Maas. General Hidalgo and General De Moure and two others.
 Maas, Hidalgo and De Moure were on their way to Torreon with rein fOrcements, but Velasco retired be- fore their arrival. Since then, until the federal concentration at San Pedro and environs, the federals have been maneuvering in an en- deavor to mobilize in force, while rebel attachments have scurried hither and thither between Viesca, Parras and San Pedro to prevent their concentration.
 When the general engagement was brought on, it is reported that the battle line measured 20 miles in a semi-circle about the city.
 telegram from General Villa asked for two million cartridges. There were no other details.
 While the battle of Torreon was in progress there were persistent reports that federal endorsements were drawing near. General Velasco feared they would be cut to pieces, and withdrew in excellent order from the city, although his loss in killed and wounded was considerably less than that of the rebels. He headed east and south and for time the rebel pursuers over whom he had a start of ten or twelve hours, were unable to lOcatet him. He was first definitely observed at Viesca, a sta tion on the southernmost end of the three railway lines running between Torreon and Saltillo and it's south ern enyirons.
 Meanwhile a rebel column had oc- cupied San Pedro near lake on the northernmost of the railway lines, about sixty miles north of the south ern line. The first detachment sent against the city by General Villa was repulsed after for days of desultory fighting, but when rebel reinforce ments arrived the federals fled east ward a short distance.
 Villa left a garrison in the town but it was unable to withstand the onslaught of a new column of federal volunteers under Generals Benjamin Argumedo and Emilio P. Sampa. While these fights were taking place Velasco moved to Parras and It is now assumed cut across from that point to San Pedro, where a general engagement is reported to have been brought on last night.

electors was furnished to the judges of election in Poinsett county and that the voters were not required 10 show their poll tax receipts. He also claims that some of the judges were drunk and that he has been unable to receive a copy of the poll books and tally sheets used at the election.
 In conclusion, the charge asks that the contestant be declared the nominee for the United States sen- ate and that the vote in Poinsett county be thrown out. That the vote of the county a sascertained by the convention March 30 be accepted in case the vote is not thrown out; that the ballot in the possession of the election officials be purged of all illegal votes and that all ballots and tally sheets be brought before the committee for their inspection and the inspection of the petitioner.

Washington, July 1.-The suffragists
who called on President Wilson at the
White House to ask his support for
the suffrage amendment to the consti-
tuition got cool reception. The presi'
dent abruptly terminated the interview
and withdrew from the room, leaving
the 500 suffragists alone.
The president before the cross
questioning had begun told the delega-
ton that the question ought to be
settled by each state separately. This
meant that President Wilson is op-
posed to the pending Mondell-Bristow
resolution which was the immediate
cause of the visit to the White House

The President: 81 do not think that
that has anything to do with my con,
viction as to the best way that it can
be done"
Mrs. Dorr: at does not, but 1t leaves
room for the women of the country

The President: Certainly it does.
Good room. But l have stated my
conviction and l have no right to crit,
else the operations of others who have
different convictions, and l certainly
would not wish to do So"
Mrs. Wiley followed Mrs. Dorr and
then began a rapid fire questioning.
II do not think it is quite proper
that submit myself to cross examin-
ation," said the president.
Mrs. Wiley then thanked the presi-
dent for his courtesy and the presi-
dent replied:
81 am very much obliged to. you.
1t has been a pleasant occasion"
1t was at this point that the presi.
Gent backed thrOugh the folding doors
