Battle Llasted Eleven . Hours, Heavy Casu- alties _on Both Sides

(Canadian Press)

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 11.-The

federal forces have achieved an overwhelming victory over the rebels after eleven ‘hours of furious fighting on .the banks of Leorma river at Ocotlam, according to a report mlade by General Arniaro Verbaldl to President Obregon.

Heavy casualties were suffered

by both sides.

A number of the commanding

generals were killed during the crossing of the river subsequent to the storming of “Death's Bal- cony", as the soldiers call the rebel trenches, according to special des- patches from Octolan. The des- patches add that President Obre» gon has sent congratulations io General Armaro and his troops.

After crossing the river the fed-

eral forces successfully attacked thc rebel position at Cuitzeo, forc- ing the main rebel command to hoist the white flag and sound bugles calling for a parlay. the des- patcheg said. The following des- patch was sent early today to General Arnolfo Gemez, military commandant in Mexico City. by President Obregoa:

“I am pleased to report that our

loyal soldiers have given the bfg~ goat example that can be demand-

ed imhnavary-.and-.. _.loyalty wh-lie

crossing the Lerma river where the rebels have organised defenses aided by the natural advantages offered in that region.

Battle Laatad 11 Houra

"Tha battle lasted eleven hours

without any truce. beginning at seven o‘clock (Saturday) in the

morning and endilllg at six o'clock in the evening. t is impossible ti give an estimate of the losses suffered bythe enmy, because the flshting _ended at nightfall over a very extensive area. ,

"Our troops suffered three hun-

dred casuaiitiqs more or less, in dead or wounded. because the crossing of the river over an lm- proviséd bridge and the subse- fluent assault had to be done under rebel fire.

"i feel hignlyproud of the man-

ner ln which our soldiers scorned death in the action, which was an honor .io the national army."

LONDON, Feb 11.-'Not in tile

That. at least, is the expert view

Here are some of the t.hings

which he says the new cabinet can do without even consulting Parlia men-t:

1. Recognize Russia (already ac

complished.

2. Draft and sign' any sort o

treaty with Germany.

3. Grant complete self govern

ment to any or all the colonies and dependencies-a power strongly np~ held by Gladstone as one of the prerogatives of the .gorvernlmen without regard to Parlizlment..

4. While -india is under parlia-

mentary control. the new secretary of state for 'India could, with a stroke' of .the pen. reduce the ‘in- dian viceroy to impotence and give Klbondkthe rim of -the pl'aoel-~pl~ac- tlcally speaking.

These are merely some of the

things they could do; what they will do remains, of course, to he seen.
