LOSSES ON BOTH SIDES
SAID TO BE ENORMOUS
Villa Is Hailed as Popular Hero
and Mexico's Greatest Mill.
tary Genius.

erals were making a final stand in the
defenses oil the west side.
An unconiirmed rumor at midnight had
it that the rebels had taken the hiu
known as Cerro de la Cruz an important
defense, but veritication was lacking
today.
Fighting in City's Heart.
Latest advices from both Villa and
newspaper correspondents indicated that
the rebels had carried their assault into
the very heart of Torreon, and that the
federals were hard pressed At that
time it was Gen. Herra's force of 1000
men which was reported to have entered
the town from the east, and the counter
march of Gen. Villa into Torreon from
the north was eXpet.ed to throw the
federals under Gen. Refugio Velasco into
utter rout.
No military official in Juarez today
doubts that the battle which Gen. Villa
has waged against Gomez Palacio, now
his and Torreon. mas been the most
desperate of any engagement OF this or
any other revolutionary movement in
Mexico. Gen. Villa went to the front
with 12,C.O seasoned men, well equipped
for d vigorous, smashing assault against
any resistance the federais might offer.
DULL nave AOSSCos
News dispatches indicate that the
federals fought fiercely, and that the
loss in dead and wounded was enormous
on both sides.
Lack of hospital facilities, the heat OF
the desert. and the four days of strenu-
Gus, practically constant lighting under
the v.rile and tenacious leadership Of
Pancho Villa We're believed to have
amaSSed a large casualty list.
Villa himself has become a hero. Every
where in Juarez his praises were being
sung today. By Maderistas and consti-
tutionalists he is looked upon as the
greatest military genius in the southern
republic, and great confidence is ex-
pressed that he will push his triumphant
way with his rebel army to the very doors
of the National Palace in Mexico City.
With "vivas'' for Villa and '-vivas" for
Carranza. the supreme chief of the revo-
luton. rebel sympathizers gathered about
the streets of Juarez early today to well
come Carranza when he ended his long
overland march from Nogales to this
city, en- route to Chihuahua. And none
could tell whether viva Villa or Viva
Carranza" was shouted with more fervor.
