--Advices telling of the defeat
of federal forces and the death
of Gen. Francisco Carera-
Torres, a federal commander,
E; In battle with rebels at
| Carneros in the state of San
! Luis Potosi, were received
{, at revolutionary headquarters
here today.
: Heavy rebel losses were reported
by the government today as
powerful federal and insurgent
forces continue to converge on
Torreon, where the next few days
may witness either one of the
biggest battles in the history OF
Mexican revolutions or a speedy
disintegration of the entire revo-
lutionary movement.
An army of $4,000 rebels was re-
ported massing at Torreon, while
Gen. Gales, commander -in-chief
of the federals, was proceeding
northward and $4,000 men under
Gen. Alr3azan were advancing
from the east to descend on the
rebel stronghold.
Rebels Anticipate Battle.
Rebel headquarters anticipated
a decisive battle, but the govern
ment at Mexico City was equally
optimistic that the rebellion had
failed and that the insurgents
would scatter northward before
the federal drive.
Government successes were re-
ported at widely scattered points.
Along the border, in the heart
of the rebel country of Sonora, a
serious detection of Yanui and
Mayo Indian troops hit the in
surgents heavily.
Gen. Olachea, hitherto apparently
supporting the rebels, staged coup yes
terday and today was strongly in
trenched at Naco, which he took over
in the name of the government.
Rebel reverses in the east and west
also were reported.
Railroads Being Repaired.
Retreating before the advance of
Gen. Almazan, the insurgents evacu-
ated Saltillo after looting two banks
of about 100000. The Federals were
hard at work repairing serious railroad
damage caused by the withdrawing in
surgents.
In the west the insurgents. who had
been driving on Mazatlan at first
slowed down their advance and today
were reported to have withdrawn their
main forces north of Culiacan and
Quila.
President Portes Gil, confident that
the revolt has been crushed. has STOP
ped recruiting in the army by volunteer
organizations.
Gen. Simon Aguirre Executed.
Gen. Simon Aguirre, brother of Gen
Jesus Aguirre. defeated rebel leader In
Vera Cruz. was court-martialed and
executed for his part in the revolt.
Government circles said the rebeI
leaders we're sending their families
northward to cross into the United
States. They held this as an indication
of the collapse of the rebel movement

HAVANA, March 13 R).-Dr. Edward

balances due on liquor sold to Walsh
and Edward j. Martin for s47,50O. Un-
able to collect. the plaintiffs obtained an
embargo against shipment of the liquor,
which still holds.

but have had no direct dealings with
him since october. 1927. and have no

Fifth Slash Since Mellon Took Office Now Being Considered, But Growing Incomes Keep Collections Up.

Washington, Nov, 2l oP'-A total reduction Of nearly two billions of dollars in the taxes of the nation since 1921 will be accomplished if congress adopts Secretary Mellon recommendation that inc rates on incomes for 1929 be lowered ny one per cent.
 The reduction made by couSr.s~ since Mellon took office iu 1921 were through the revenue acts O. 1921. 1924. 1926 and l"2G. Tn" first slash became effective in l423 and cut s6G&,0oo,opU of the total collections,
 But as the tax rates of the nu- tion were reduced. taxable incomes increased with corresponding oenr- fits for the treasury In 1H2@ the total income and miscellaneous taxes collected hy the government amounted to $$197.451.oS& and the next year despite reduction Of s66S.OO0.00O the total collected was but sS7.0U0. GOO below the 1922 fig ,n.e and included q considerable in crease from some sources.
 In 1924 the tax collections mount ed to s2.796,179.257 and through congress that year cut $514,0nt.ooo of the estimated tax payments. inc next year saw only a drop of S2l2,- 900. 900 in the collections which reached a total or S2.5&4.l40.26h, This sum with the cut was regarded as showing an actual lnrcease Of approximately S4U0,G00,000 from the same sources as compared with the wear before. Tax collections Contjn- ued to mount in 1926 and 1927. showed a slight drop in 1928 and an increase of S2J0. .000. .0O0 in 1929 despite another taN cut that took S222. .O0O,000 more off the total taxes.
 , Says Cuts Increase Income
 Secretary Mellon in recommend ing tax reductions to congress maintained that reduction in taxes invariably increased revenue and explained that this resulted from funds that were held in investment becoming active because the surtaX and income tax was not so heavy. It also caused an expansion of business, he said, which increased the flow Of revenue for the govern ment.
 Reduction in rac governments expenditures played great part in l-;, t, These expenses have been reduced from sG,4S2. 2.0O0.000 in 1920 10 $3.- s48.O00.G for the fiscal year of 1929 ending last June 90.
 How Past Slashes Worked
 The first tax reduction bill oliec- many burdensOme war time taxes. Personal exemption for heads Of families whose income was not in excess of s5O00 was increased from s2,000 10 S2,500, credit for each child or dependent increased from s2O0 to s40O. surtaxes decreased from G5 per cent maximum to 50 per cent maXimum and tho excess profits tax was eliminated. The bill also eliminated most Of the transpor- tation tax, reducing it hy $273.OoO,- 900.
 The government went further in 1924 and reduced the levies on small incomes cutting the rates from four and eight per cent to two and four and six per cent while the surtaxes were revised so that the
