Before the battle ended a
veritable rain Of machine gun
bullets whizzed over the muddy
Rio Grande, international 'bor-
der, and landed in Ell Paso.
Three persons, two small chill
dren and an unidentified man
were wounded critically.
Several plate glass windows in the
center of the city we're smashed.
Although United States troops
were stationed along the river front
and guns were trained in Juarez
from vantage points on this side OF
the boundary, Brigadier-General
George Moseley, commandant at Ft.
Bliss, took no action in the conflict.
Arrest Federal Officers
He announced, however, that he
had received telegraphic instruc-
tio,ls from Washington giving him
full authority to take any steps ne
considered necessary.
Rebels forces arrested federal Of
f1cers .as rapidly as they could be
rounded up, but announced that
none would be executed.
Blood on the streets bore witness
to the fierce struggle.
Wounded soldiers who had crawled
into houses during the battle were
rushed to hospitals three minutes
after the fighting stopped. The
dead were carried away rapidly.
Riderless horses, many Of them
wounded, also were taken in.
Many Lose Lives
The main battle was over al 9
a. m. but there was scattering fire
for more than an hour more as
the rebels sought out and dislodged
machine gun and sniper nests.
Unofficial estimate of the number
killed on both sides ranged from
so to $50 and more, although no
accurate check could be made be-
cause of the rapidity with which
the bodies were removed from the
streets.
A rebel leaders momentary delay
of a firing order probably saved the
lives of two American newspaper
men. who we're mistaken for federal
spies as they penetrated the revo-
luton zone near Juarez, General
Augustine De La Vega, rebel leader,
revealed today.
The newspaper men were Robert
Conine and Gerald Daley, Ell Paso
Post and United Press representa-
tives, who had gone by auto to
within eight miles of Juarez near
the scene of reported conflict.
Confronted by a line of men, ris-
ing from the sage brush, the re-
porters turned their car and re-
treated. Later in an interview with
General De La Vega, Conine and
DALEY learned they had been mis-
taken for federal spies.

its first session just three weeks ago,
today seemed heading rapidly for ad-

Premier BRAND of France this morn

solution is to convoke a meeting Of the

Plenary Session Likely.
Philip Snowden, British chancellor of

inadequate the latest offer of the other
four creditor powers, on being informed
the meeting be held at $3.50 PM, but
eventually agreed to pm, when the
delegates of the six powers will meet
and the fate of the conference pre-
sumably will be settled.
It is regarded as likely that a plenary
session of the conference will be held
tomorrow, at which will be announced
that adjournment is necessary until
after the coming session of the Council
of the League Of Nations at Geneva.
Snowden yesterday told the repre-
sentatives of France. Italy. Belgium
and Japan that their new offer on di-
vision of reparations did not satisfy
British claims. He criticized the offer
point by point. He said that 1t was the
equivalent of only 81 per cent OF the
amount Britain claimed as her share.
The other creditors had claimed 1t ap-
proximated IS per cent.
Barriers Pointed Out.
Mr.. Snowden pointed out that, while
its money value on the basis OF 5l2
per cent discount would be equivalent
to 28.6O0. 900 marks, the Germans had
not given their consent to disposal OF
surplus payments over the Young plan
between April and September. which
the creditors counted on to provide IA
400 900 marks of this sum. Mr.. Snow
den did not regard as clear the method
OF the Italian contribution of 100000
marks to be paid from Italy's share
of Eastern reparations payments.

distributed in accordance with the Spa
the chancellor said, Brit
ain would receive 120.000000 marks an
nually, while under the offer made by
the four powers her share WOULD be only

Finally we pointed out that the
smaller reparations creditors, whose
share in unconditional annuities is re-
duced from $4,000, 900 to 100000
marks, do not participate in the offer.
