agents today. They based those state
mcnts on the action Of the Carransa
authorities in sending every available
soldier In Northern Mexico to the ~
lief OF the bcsieged city.
This Is the fifth day Of tho battle
for possession of chihuahua City. De-
spite the efforts OF Carranxa off,
clals at Juares no word Of the fata
OF General Trovino and his garrison
mas been received since noon Satur-
day. At that time villa with his
forces was still encircling the city.
The losses during the four first days
OF the battle have boon extremely
heavy on both sides. according tQ
reports reaching the border.
"wc cannot estimate the loases."
said one report. "but the stroets of
tho city are filied with dead. at -
impossible to pick W the wounded
for incessant firing. Many buildinGs
throughout the city havo been dam
aged by shell fire."
During the attack early SATURDAY.
morning vfllistas penetrated into the
city proper and maintained = foot
hold for I time In zarc0 avenue.
Machine gun fire drove them back.
At another time the bandits gained
the church or Santuario de Cuada-
lupo in the west side Of the city.
Shells from 754milimetcr guns de-
molished the church and Carranza
cavalry scattarcd tho survivors.
Although the telegraph wire has
been open to Parral. within ten miles
OF the state capital. since Tuesday,
the military operator at Parral In
formed General Gonzales at Juarox
THAT no teleprams had reached him.
Messages sent from this end OF the
line to chihuahua City did not re-
turn.
In United States official circles
here today 1t was stated that Chihua-
hua City Is certainly in a state Of
siege or messenger would have
brought news. United States secret
service men say that the possibili-
ty OF an attack on Juarez In . few
weeks is looming big. Two deserters
from Salaxar's band told govern
ment agents that Salaxar had been
ordered by villa to come north after

all OF Little Wallachia territory
which forms the western portion of
all Rumania, though 1t will take sew
cral days to clear out the Rumanians
hidden in the forests and cities. Be
tween seven and ten battalions are
believed to be bottled up here Of
ficers say 1t will be interesting to
see what the Rumanians will decide
to do---whethcr they will fight or
surrender.
Reports reaching Falkenhayn's
headquarters today indicated the
Germans operations were progress
ing splendidly. 1t is believed the Ru-
manians will be forced to choose a
new line far back OF the Alt river,
thereby giving up all of the western
part of their country. which contains
valuable stores. most Of which are
owned by England, England origin
ally purchased them to keep them out
of the hands of the Germans.
The success achieved by Falken-
hayn on the Danube opens many
miles of important transportation
facilities.
AS far as comment at General
Falkenhayn's headquarters is con-
cerned the situation of the Central
powers against Rumania is regarded
as excellent. All five of the passes
are now In German hands.
