Sees End Of Uprising

NEW ORLEANS Dec. 29-(By As- sociated Press. )-Reports today that Mexican federal forces had begun an offensive toward Vera Cruz were &C., cepted by the Mexican consulate here as indicating that the end of the De La Huerta uprising is in sight. Arturo Melias, consul general. said once Vera Cruz gets under the control of the federals, peace would be restored quickly throughout the country.
 Persons here familiar with Vera Cruz hold that the rebels have little chance of escaping from the city; if 1t is attacked from even two sides and reports are that the stronghold will be approached from three directions It is claimed 1t will be a case of the rebels raising a white flag before the battle begins or be driven into the sea.
 It is understood that the rebels at Vera Cruz are running short of oil and fuel supplies and if such reports are true they would be in a difficult position should the federal forces manage to gain control of the rail- road from Vera Cruz inland.
 Teodoro Frezieres. comm ercial agent here for De La Huerta, claimed the oil fields near Tampico were in rebel hands. but MT. Elias denied this emphatically.
 MT. Elias had a telegram today signed by President Obregon, stating that General Lazaro Cardenas, who attacked rebel forces between Guad- alajara and Colimina had annihilated the Tamazula.
