HONDURAN REBEL
VICTORY PREDICTED
Dispatches to Navy Depart
ment Indicate de Facto Gov
eminent on Verge of Collapse

Early collapse of the de facto gov
ernment in Honduras and ultimate
success of the revolutionary forces
headed by Gen. Ferrefa was predicted
today in dispatches received by the
Navy Depa rtment.
Commander Causey, in charge of
the American naval detachement sent
TO protect American lives and prop
erty in Tegucigalpa, the Honduran
capital, predicted victory for the
revolutionists.
Capt. ASserson, commanding the
cruiser Milwaukee, at Amapala, re-
ports the military forces in that port,
at the instance of revolutionary lead
ers from the north coast, declared
themselves yeste erday in favor of Fer
rera and that the revolutionist lead
ers were proceeding to southern ter
ritory in order to persuade de facto
Plan to Renew Attack.
The situation at Tegucigalpa was
reported quiet, but revolutionary
leaders were planning to renew their
attack on the city, and a combined
Posta and CariaS was expected mo-
mentarily.
Commander Causey also forwarded
to the Navy Department by radio,
through the Milwaukee. Authentic
reports prepared by Associated Press
representatives, which the de facto
government would not permit to be
for lal
The paraphrase of the Associated
Press dispatches issued by the Navy
Department said it was the general
opinion that the de facto government
could not resist revolutionary pres
sure much longer. The western area
was said to be in the hands of the
revolutionists. and final attack on
Tegucigalpa by Ferrera was expected
at any time.
Establiah Neutral Tone.
Foreign interests in Tegucigalpa
were said to feel safer because of
the presence there of the officers and
men from the Milwaukee.
Daily fights in the suburbs about
Tegucigalpa are taking place, the
dispatch said. The de facto troops
are using artillery stationed on hill-
tops and fire across sections of the
city lying between the guns and the
revolutionary camps.
Due to inability of the de facto
government to maintain order on
March Is, the dispatches said, the city
was in a state of anarchy. Murder,
looting and general disorder prevail
ed everywhere. 1t was this situation
that caused Minister Franklin Morales
to call for a detachment of sailors
from the Milwaukee.
A neutral zone has been agreed
upon by de factoand revolutionary
leaders to afford safety for foreign
ers. 1t is patrolled by the American
sailors, under, command of Comman-
der Causey, who, the dispatches said,
show excellent discipline.
