'l‘hu forces 0i’ tlio rebel general. Sanchez, tho statement adds. are retreating in disorder and it is be- lieved the way is open to Vera Cruz with. however. the possibility of resistance being offered at Soledad. 20 miles west of Vern Cruz, if a reorganization by the rebels can be effected. Other- wise, it is stated. the revolutionary army will he divided.

Specials from Vera Cruz indicate that, llic, first statement of rebel casualties placing the number at 2,000 was too conservative since numerous wounded prisoners still are being counted, willi prospects tln- total will reach 4.000. This numbi-r includes many prisoners and deserters.

Fortin is in the state of Vera (‘ruz approximately (l5 miles west of the port of Vera Cruz.

iii capturing Esperanza the fed‘ ci-als took an important rcbcl (rode, which resulted in tho interception of wireless messages between I)o la llucria and Estrada and rebel agi-nis in tho United States. The nature of tho messages was not made public.

Govt. Consider Em- ployment of Aeriial Bombing (Canadian Press)

LONDON. Feb. 1i. —Onc section of ihe Liberal pnriy have transi- for rejoicing (aver the rnctincili- ation of Mr. Asquith and Lloyd siafl’ of Lloyd (lcorgehi national quarters on Ahingdon Street. 'l‘hi.- members of the staff have, receiv- eil six months’ pay in ll(‘\l of the regular notice and iili‘ office is to be closed forthwith.

The (Iflllllify agcnts of tlii- latc National Liberal tirgziuizution like- wise have been paid off.

in the present fortunes of Lfb eralism in iliiis country it is (iOllili- ful ii’ many of’ the eniployt whose services have now been d - penscd with can ho, absorbed iiilo (the remaining Liberal organize tion.

Thus ends the party that was born in 191C when Lloyd George ilisplacctl Mr. Asquith in the Prcmilersliip.

A possibility lliat, the new Gov- ernment of Ramsay MacDonnliI may adopt. a frcsh policy towards the employment of aerial bombing secms foreshadowed iii an inter- national communication issued from the Colonial Officc today. Aliuding tn recent newspaper com- ments on tho bombing by ziircraft of natives in the kingdom of lrak the eonimiiiiicatlon says:
