Mexico City, July 15.-Official an.
nouncement is made that President
Huerta sent his resignation to Congress
at O'Clock this afternoon.

Abdication by President Huerta has

While these developments we're in

active advance against Mexico City, and
Gen. Carranza was reported to be con-
sidering taking active leadership in the
field, and thus be the commander-in-
chief for what appears will be final
assault on the capital.

about 10 O'Clock.
BE was enjoying bis usual good health
and had spent the day working for Sc.

Of town and was present for supper as

Friends missed him Sunday and in
quiry failed to reveal his whereabouts.
A reward has been offered and general
search OF the city and surrounding ter
