 HIIEDGED IN BY REBELS
De La Huerta Prepares To Take Control In
 Mexico City.
(By the Associated Press)

by the ASSoclated PreSS)
 Mexican rebel forces seem to be rapidly closing in on Pres ident CarranZa and all that re- mains of his army, entrenched in the hilly country between San Marcos and Apizaco, 15O miles northwest of Vera Cruz. Rebel chieftains are evidently determined to capture the pres ident, who fled from his capital last Friday.
 General Trevino, one of the lead ing figures in the revolution, has gone to Apizaco, state of TlazcaIa, to pro- feet the life of Carrenza if he is made prisoner.
 Dispatches appear to clear up some of the obscure details of the flight of Carranza and what threatens to be his final stand. When he left Mexico City Carranza is alleged to have taken with him government funds amount ing to 1000, 900 pesos His trains were stopped between Aparn, state of HUdago and Apizaco, state of Tlax- cala, but the president and the troops accompanying him in his flight made their way down the railroad for a distance of approximately 35 miles before being halted by rebel forces coming northward through the state of Puebla- Dispatches declare the treasure reputed to have been taken from Mexico City by Carranza has been captured by the rebels.
 NezuSor near the Mexican border, has gone over to the rebels without a struggle, the CarranZa officials fleeing across the international border and thus es- caping capture.
 Governor De La Euerta of Sonora, who has been named supreme leader of the revofrzthon, is preparing to go to Mexico City to take over control Dispatches from Vera Cruz state that rebel leaders hope to hold the presi- dential election late in July accord ing to the provisions of Mexican law. For this purpose they desire the ap- pointnnent of a provisional president who will give assurances the election will he conducted fairly.

He in sisted that Admiral Sims had not agreed with the departments views as to the necessity for ? protecting transports and told the committee he had found it necessary to remind Admiral Sims several times during the war that the first duty of AnnerI- can desroyers abroad was to rrotect these vessels.
 The admirars course regarding the protection of troop ships caused the department much anxiety the sec retary declared, and finally he Nbluntfy" told Sims that everything was secon dary to the safeguarding of vessels carrying American soldiers
 MT. Daniels charged that Sims withdrew the destroyer escort from the first convoy as soon as it arrived abroad, leaving the transports with out protection for the return voyage. Admiral GIeazes, in charge of con- voy system, doubted the authenticity of Admiral Sims order directing the destroyer force to proceed to Queens town, and made an investigation both through the American embassy at Paris and the navy department.
