MEXICO CITY, Oct. 11.-With
the Mexican revolution broken eight
days after it began, government
troops today pursued fleeing rebel
generals who deserted their troops
in the battle that ended the revolt.
A fugitive, with twenty men left
from what a few days ago was a
revolutionary army, Gen. Arnulfo
Gomez was believed to be hiding in
the Vera Cruz Mountains, President
Gales said in an interview today.
Gales said he thought Gomez was
likely to remain hidden in the
mountains rather than risk a dash
to the coast and safety.
Those remaining rebels not with
Gomez, Gales said, we're broken
into small groups of ten and fifteen
men, whom federals were pursuing.
Other Bands Yield
Information from Chapultepec to-
day was that several additional
bands of rebels had surrendered.
''It no longer can be dignified by
the name revolution" said War
Minister Amparo, adding that the
revolt had been quashed completely.
Pursuing Federal troops were un-
der General Escobar, who COM
manded the government forces in
the decisive battle at Avahualulco
and Cozautlan, in Vera Cruz.
In a six-hour fight at Avahua-
lulco sunday afternoon and evening,
the rebels were routed completely,
and fled to the hills, President
Gales announced.
Generals Take Flight
Two hours after the fighting be-
gan, Gomez and the other rebels
fled, it was declared, leaving their
troops behind to carry on a hope
less fight
More than 500 rebel troops sur
rendered to federal forces Monday
at Cozautlan.
Escouar reported heavy casualties
among the rebels.
"It is worth mentioning" he said
in his report TO PRESIDENT CalleS,
chat our troops we're greatly
pleased to punish their former COM
panions-in-arrns who forgot their
duty"
The number Of dead and wounded
was not given.
Fifty-two federals were wounded,
including six officers.
Revolt Shortest on Record
The governments announcement
of the surrender of the rebels came
at time when it was believed that
the subjugation of the rebels would
be a long drawn out affair of the
well-known guerilla kind.
Instead, it came swiftly, making
the revolt against Gales the short
est revolution in Mexican history.
With only a handful of men, it
was considered unlikely that Gomez
would be able to make good his
temporary escape. The Navy
watched the coast to prevent his
escape to the seas.

COLLEEN SCORES B|G
 HIT ELLA C|NDERs"
 AT LIBERTY TONIGHT

Colleen Moore registers another genuine triumph with the delightful cinema entertainment called Ella Cinders," which opens at the Liberty theatre tonight and which will hold the audience in paroxysms of laughter at times and at others draw a tear or two with touches of pathos.
 For one thing, her performance demonstrated beyond cavil that Miss Moore is one of the most versatile and winsome personalities of the screen today. Whether she be in satins or calicos-and for a good section of this picture she is in calicos-she is ap- pealing in the nth degree.
 l "Ella Cinders" is a unique experi- ment in motion pictures, a highly suc- cessful one. It marks the first at- tempt to make feature motion pie 1 ture from a newspaper comic strip, having been adapted rom the gOlnC creation of William Conselman and Charles Plumb, now running in a hundred dailies. More of this sort of thing will be welcomed by movie goers.
 Tn the story Ella is the slavy in the Cinders household, and how she gets away from the environment of her |stepmother and stepsisters, falls in love with an iceman, wins a fake beauty contest and crashes the gate" Ito success in the movies furnishes delightful entertainment in only the manner that is Colleen Moore's.

They said that there are three

year, the experts found little traffic
in women either in or out OF Can
ada.
The section on Mexico indicates
that women are taken there for i'm
immoral purposes by evasion Of the
Mexican laws. Tijuana, Tampico,
Mexicali and Mexico City are among
the cities discussed.
1t states that American girls are
numerous at Tiajuana, and also
Tampico, and says many girls enter
Mexico allegedly as actresses to work
in cabarets.
Tijuana is pointed out as typical
of seasonal traffic, houses being OPP
Grated there in connection with bars
during the racing season when large
crowds flow over the California line.
Concerning Cuba, the report says
exploiterS and women come from
and go to Havana, without difficul-
ty either by procuring false pass
ports, travelling as married women
or disembarking from their steamers
at Jamaica or Costa Rica or some
other Central American port and
then proceeding to Havana, as Amer
ican citizens, which they are able
to do since Americans do not need
passports to visit Havana.
An outstanding feature of the white
slave report is the protest of M.
BRAND, the French foreign minister,
against what he terms the publica-
ton of confidential information which
cannot be controlled, "moSt of which"
M. BRAND said, seems to have been
received by unauthorized agents, and
not by the members of the white slave
committee themselves"
Mr.. BRAND adds that the nlfornla-
tion appears chiefly to have been
cleaned from the exploiters of women
or from persons of equally dubious
morals.
"The report" M BRAND asserts,
conveys a general picture which
does not in the least represent the
| truth"
