The fourth week of the Mexican

in the grip of their first major
clash for possession of the import
ant seaport of MaZatlan.
After a two-day battle in which
heavy losses appeared inevitable,
the federal garrison at MaZatlan.
outnumbered at least 2 to l, was
still in possession Of the city while
relief troops were barely forty miles
away.
The main body Of federal rein
forcement numbering 5000 men was
at Irapuato pressing on to bring AID
to the beleaguered city.
Rebel reports that the city had
fallen were denied by the govern
ment which reported being in tele-
phone communication with the de-
Tending federals last midnight.
While the fighting ragged on the
west coast, the main contending
forces began slowly to close upon
each other in central Mexico.

LONDON PAPER BACKS
ACTION OF GUARDS

LONDON, March 25.-CP)-The
sinking Of the British schooner I'm
Alone by a United States coast
guard vessel excited little editorial
comment in London newspapers to-
day, though given a big play in the
news columns.
One diplomatic writer pointed out
that if the firing occurred within
twelve miles of the American coast
Great Britain would hardly be in a
position to protest, and, indeed,
could not do so if the I'm Alone was
warned to heave to and refused, and
if the American cutter made every
effort to avoid killing Of the crew.
The same commentator contended
the placing of the crew in irons was
also justified if liquor smuggling
could be proved legally against
them.
