Just now, Joseph Singer. Of Portland,
is congratulating the winners and in the
second paragraph, announcing that he
is in a receptive mood for the job OF
serseant-at-arms of the house Of repre-
sentatives.
Tom Bruse, Of Portland, also has O
longing look directed to the same occu-
patton for 40 days and there are Others
who are willing to serve their country
as sergeant-at-arms for the lower house
and incidentally put themselves on the
states pay roll.
When it comes TO the more important
service, that of speaker Of the house
Louis Bean, Of Eugene, representing

FL Paso, Texas, Nov. "a. Heavy
fighting between force of from three
to five thousand -Nillista bandits at
tacking Chihuahua City and the Car
ranzisia garrison there, was still in pro-
gress at noon today Mexican De Faeto
Consul Soriano Bravo stated. Officers
at the Juarez COMMANDMENTS expressed
fears that the ammunition of the Chi
huahua City garrison would be exhaust
ed before night.
Yesterday afternoon train with all
the aSeilable ammunition at Juarez was
started southward. Carranza military
authorities at the border today had no
news of it. Due to lack of men, only
30 guards were sent as escort to the am
munition train. Doubt as to the outcome
of the battle caused orders to be issued
to hold all trains now in the yards at
Juarez under steam, ready TO start
south.
The heaviest fighting in chihuahua
City is centering in the western part of
the city between the waterworks and
the penitentary. Late reports stated
that Villa is gaining ground and the
capitulation of the city is looked for in
official circles here. d. N
The Villistas have gained foothold
upon Nombre De Dios, north. Of Chi

were killed in yesterdays battle, a mes

but it is thought the general killed may

high Officers were killed.

FL Paso, Texas, Nov. 24.--Another
fierce attack upon chihuahua City was
launched by Villistas early today. From
the southern and western sides of the
northern Mexican capital 1000 bandits
made simultaneous assault and at 10
o CLOCK today the fighting still was
in progress.
A message from General Trevino,
Commanding the Chihuahua City, to Con
sui General Garcia at Juarez, reported
the renewal of the assault upon the
city.
From the wording of the wire re
