Four Soldiers Killed

LAREDO, Tex, May o.-Nuevo La
redo, the Mexican town opposite this
city. surrendered to rebel forces at 7
o'clock this morning after a two hours
battle. Three Federal defenders and
one rebel soldier were killed. The re-
volutionists attacked from three sides
Of the town.
General Reynaldo CARA commander
of federal forces in the Nuevo Laredo
military district. tonight is refugee
on American soil. Following defeat Of
mis- troops and capture of Nuevo Laredo
by revolutionists early to-day the Car
ranza officer arrived in Laredo to-
night and took refuge in the Mexican
Consulate.
General Cara, who ordered his
troops to make a determined stand
against the rebel attack on Nuevo
Laredo at dawn. saw his defense
erumpled after short fight and with
his son escaped in an automobile. Pur-
sued by rebels, the general eventually
forded the Rio Grande, five miles west
of Nuevo Laredo and arrived on
American soil with his automobile per
forated by bullets.
Nuevo Laredo Celebrates Surrender
The revolutionists approached Nuevo
Laredo shortly before dawn from the
west and drew the Federal force on
that side. About one hundred mounted
rebels then entered the town from the
south and east When they reached
the center of the city the Federal gar
1ison began to fire into the air and
surrendered without serious resistance
The casualties occurred in the western
outskirts during the first stages of the
attack.
The most resistance, however, took
place in the section Immediately sur
rounding General Garzas residence
This probably was for the purpose OF
covering the Federal commanders es-
cape, it was said. The number of men
involved in the battle could not be
ascertained.
When the rebels had taken full con
troll of the town the populace turned
cut in celebration Bands paraded the
streets playing popular marches, while
the crowds cheered.

In view of events in Mexico and the
asccndancy Of General Obregon, to-
gcthcr with the fall of Carranza, The
Tribune reprints the following excerpts
from a dispatch by Wilbur Forrest,
writing from San Antonio, Tex, Ian
p, 1920, after study Of the Mexican
political situations:
"Another revolution in Mexico within
the next three months and possibly
sooner is not an abnormal forecast.

which undoubtedly has considerable
basis. lie is known to have ardent ad-
vocates IN the Carranza army who have

liable channels that Oregon has the
secret sympathetic interest Of various
rebel chleftains who would agree to lay
down their arms if he became Presi-
dent. Likewise they doubtless would
employ their arms to aid him i'm his
ambitions. IF he rebels against the
government, an eventuality considered
hlghly probable in view of events, the
rebels also will join hands with him.

the Carranza controlled elections in
July. which would inevitably seat the
government candidate or launch his

supporters into Obregon's political sack
