busly wounded Clinton Robinson, mar
shall at Hastings, when the officer at
tempted to put him under arrest. Six
men, arrested by the militia near the
place where johnson was killed. are
being held for examination. None Of
the six was armed. They are all white
union miners from the Ludlow tent
colony and their presence in the COM
pany OF the negro is believed due to
a chance meeting on the road.
Marshal Robinson was called at
Hastings to quell general fight that
had broken out among party Of ne
groes. Johnson opened fire on the Of
ficer with a revolver, inflicting two
serious wounds, and then made his es-
cape into the hills south Of the camp.

Ell; Paso, Tex, March 31.-A tale OF
rebel ,reverses and rebel luck was
brought here last night from the front
by John 8. Reed, correspondent of the
New York World, and Robert Dormain,
photographer, who escaped from
Torreon. Their stories are the first
accounts Of eye witnesses since the
attack on Gomez Palacio, Lerdo and
Torreon begun. They left the front
Saturday morning, at which time they
estimated the rebel loss was 1000 in
killed and wounded.
Dorman brought back a report that
Colonel Victor Huerta, son of Presi-
dent Huerta, was among the federal
dead He eaid also that British Vice
Consul Cummings of Gomez Palacio
was sent to Torreon by General Villa
to suggest to General Velasco that he
surrender.
Cummings left Gomez Palacio Fri
day evening and was expected to re-
turn early Saturday morning, but when
the correspondents left he had not re-
appeared. and there was much specu-
lation as to his safety.
I'VE were whipped twice at Gomez
Palacio," related Dorman, but the
federals didn't have the good sense to
follow up their advantage, and Villa
returned to the attack after reorganiz-
ing and ultimately occupied the city.
We were whipped right there, but Ve-
lasco, the federal commander, didn't
know it.
Federal prisoners whom we cap
tured said that Velasco later went in
sane in the trenches. He is cripple
of previous revolutions and has bad
arm and bad leg. The prisoners tolo
Us he went mad after Gomez Palacio
and went raging up and down the
lines, cursing and issuing the most abb
surd orders. Ultimately his own Off
GERS put him under restraint.
Our attack on Gomez Palacio was
centered on the hill known as Cerro
de la Pillar. 1t is precipitous and we
made seven assaults before taking It..
The result of each of the six assaults
which were unsuccessful could be dis
cerned after the battle by the rings of
ucdu IcUclS. xAcN uOOAco ul6IAASlAy
marked the line where they were re-
pulsed.
"The homemade shrapnel Of the
rebels had much to do with the early
repulses at Gomez Palacio. Only about
one in thirty exploded.
General Villa is fighting man.
He was everywhere and his greatest
delight was to join the assaults on foot
and throw hand grenades himself.
ultimately he will take Torreon.
"When We left, Saturday morning,
the fight for the possession of Tor
reon was in progress. 1t was slow,
stubborn work, as the rebels had to
fight from house to house, the enemy
retreating from position to position
through holes knocked through the
mud houses which are built one
against another"
Reed and Dorman agreed that the
superiority of the federals' artillery
should have given them permanent
victory but for Velasco's failure to fol-
low up his advantages.
The rebel and federal forces at Tor
reon still are engaged in battle, it was
learned Monday night.

President Holds Conference as Con-
gress Battles over Measure.
Washington, March 31.-While op-
posing factions were clashing in ora
torical flights on the tolls repeal bill
at the capitol Monday, President Will
son held several conferences at the
White House and expressed keen re-
gret that what had promised to be
dignified contest over principles had
degenerated into fight upon the ad-
ministration.
Wilson characterized as "a crowning
insult of number Of insults" in the
debate, the declaration Of Representa-
tive Knowland of California that the
administration had made deal to re-
peal the toll exemption with Sir Will
lam Terrell, secretary to Sir Edward
Grey, British secretary for foreign af-
fairs.
Little doubt as to the result Of the
vote on the bill is entertained by any
one, the majority for the repeal being
estimated at from 80 to rs votes.
