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."

ble to defeait at any Tnonlent. but
in the great frowlling government

tile new Labor goveminent will
bring about its "revolution,"
That. at least, is the expert view
of Professor J. 'I-I. Morgan, profess-
or of constitutiollal lilw in the Unl-
versl-ty of London, who discloses,
with almost dramatic abruptness.
the extraordinary powers, fl-ee from
the slightest parliamentary or
judicial control. now passing into
the hands of Ramsay MacDonald
and his associates.
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-

These are merely some of the
things they could do; what they
will do remains, of course, to he
seen.
