WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW.

New York, Jan. 9.-The feature OF the
week in the cotton market was the re-
port OF the Census Bureau, issued at the
opening this. morning. Prior TO the pub
developed a steadier tone on reports OF
improved export demand In the South
and rather more optimistic talk as to
general trade conditions, owing to rather
easier money markets abroad. and the
tendency # favorable talk as to the new
currency system.
The amount Of cotton reported ginned
to January I was 400 600 bales In excess
of ginning to the same date last year, but
the Indicated ginning for the last period
in December showed a record breaking
falling off as compared with returns for
the preceding period. This seemed TO be
taken by many traders as. Indicating q
ginned and while the rarge ginning re-
ported for the first half Of DeceJnber had
favored crop stimate of around II, D.C0Q
bales, today's figures led to predictions
that the total yield including ~linters,
would not exceed IA, 400 900 bales. Pn-
combined influence cf smaller supply fig
ures, an easier English bank rate and q
lower ocean freight market also led to
talk of q still more active demand from
foreign spinners. There are two more
cen sus reports still to be published this
season which may cause some further
| modification Of crop views, while the mar
ket will also soon begin to feel the in
huence Of early new crop preparations
Meanwh 1t is felt that spot market
developments will be closely watched. As
not a few operators contend that out
side conditions are still unfavorable to
any sustained Improvement and that any
sign Of weakening on the part Of interior
holders would be quickly followed by &
renewed selling movement.

Bombarding the Garrison.

still were bombarding the Federal
garrison at Q o'clock tonight at which
hour several shells had fallen on
United States territory. .
The entire border patrol was or
dered out because numerous Federal
deserters had already crossed and
more were expected.
General Mercado. Of the Federal
garrison sent a note to General NC
Nance Of the fifteenth United States
Cavalry asking if the Federals might
send across the border some guns for
which they had no ammunition. +.
Major McNamee replied that any
guns sent across would be seized and
held In this country and that h men
bringing them would be disarmed and
forced back to the Mexican side.
Later Genera Mercado sent over
seven wagon loads of government
documents under the escort of g
wounded lieutenant who also brought
his personal fleets. The wagons
were pulled out OF the river and taken
into the United States army camp.

The defeat of the F'ederals by their

fall of the ,Huerta government in this
vast section OF Mexico was preceded
by q, series of dramatic incidents. Just
six weeks ago tomorrow, General Sal
vador MercadO with his 1000 troops
evacuated Chihuahua City.
His fight across the desert TO Ojin-
aga, where he hoped to replenish his
food and ammunition supply required
almost q week. He was accompanied
by many rich Mexicans,. among them
Luis TerraZaS, one of the most extern
Isive landlords in the world, who fear
ed violence at the hands of the reDel
forces.
The flight Of Mercado with his army
drew forth a belief that ultimately he
would be forced across the Rio
Grande and seek safety in the United
States. How soon the retreat to
foreign soil was to follow then hardly
could be co~njectured, but 1t was

trenches withou avail. 1t was not
until Villa, military head of the revo-
futon. appeared on the scene that the
reverse came for the Federals.
General Villa arrived only q few
days ago. His presence together with
the coincidence that the Federals had
only fifty rounds OF ammunition left
for each man. seemed to take from
the Federal generals their asst vestiGe
Of hope. Federals were rushing
about in disorder and was more in
tensely pathetic than that Of General
Mercado, an old campaigner in va
rious revolutions who appeared at
the liver bank and informed an or
derby OF tie United States army that
he wished asylum in a foreign oun
try.
General Mercado was taken to Maj
McNamee. the commanding officer.
who held him pending orders from
Erigadier-General Bliss.
Major McNamee was convinced at
a late hour that many Of the Federal
soldiers had not succeeded in reach

Change OF Orders Necessary.
Washington, Jan. 1O.-Surrender OF
the Mexican federal generals at Dim
aga to the United States military au-
thorities at Preside and the flight OF
their soldiers to this side OF the border
may confront the War Department
with the necessity Of changing orders
to General Bliss with reference to
foreign soldiers crossing the border.
Secretary Of War Garrison on jan
uary 2 instructed General bliss to ex-
tend aid to wounded soldiers seeking
assylum; to permit refugees to cross
the river if necessary to save their
lives; to disarm them and hold them
as refugees. as long as would be dan
gerous to force them back.
With regard to what will happier

STORY OF ATTACK.

General Villa had with him 1000
men while Generals Herrera and
Hernandez led 1900 from the West.
from a base at the village Of San
imam. The main body Of rebels, COM
prising about 4,800 men, advanced
along the river road from the east.
Steadily creeping toYard the Fed
eral Notifications high on the pla-
teau where Ojinaga stands. the reb-
els occupied positions within four
miles Of the village before they met
resistance.
The Federal outposts opened fire,
their rifle volleys being supported by
the fire Of a few machine guns. The
rafting return fire Of the rebels soon
silenced the guns Of the outpost. The
scattered Federals were thrown into
disorder and attempted to retreat, but
fifty were captured and seven others
threw away their rifles and jumped
into the river, swimming to the Amer
lean side.
