I , AGUA PRIETA IS h STORM CENTER Insurrectos Skipped Out Monday Night, Claiming That They Were Out of Ammunition AGUA PRIKTA, Mexico. April IS.— When darkness fell tonight it. was un certain whether Colonel Diaz's federal troops would retain undisputed pos session of the city or whether rebel reinforcements, upoparjng suddon!> from the westward this afternoon would precipitate another battle Watchers were Surprised after n, day of quiet to see a column of troops move out of the mountain passes' 12 miles west of Agtm Pricta'and tl. boueh on the plains in front of the city. The column began Its march directly toward the city. Tho ni"ii were mounted and rode rapidly. As they drew dearer It was made out with the aid of glasses that they were reb els. As they approached the outer breastworks ot the city the federals opened on thorn at long range and tha column halted. Senora Talmantes. Preseut It was later ascertained that the force was that of Juan Cabrel, .and with him was Senora Talamcites Mexican. "Joan of Arc," wi'*? her com mand. A Mexican 'r.surge.nt who crossed the line ♦> the American side said ho was one of Cabral's band, and that Gebral had no knowledge of the evacuation of Aqua Prieta loclay by the rebels and was moving forward with the expectation of joining them. The rebel column resumed its march on a line parallel with the city. They evidently had no intention of ap proaching near enough to do battle. As darkness fell it was impossible to make out whether the moving rebel column would come into con tact with the federal garrison or not. From daylight this morning there was seen no sign of the rebel garri son which vanished last night from Aqua Prieta. They vol.utarily gave up tho city and fled, following the exhaustion of their ammunition in yesterday's all day battle. As the command moved away they shouted across tho line to American sentries that they would be back 'in l tow da>s with more ammunition to fight it out. Oakland Preliminary Election OAKLAND, Cal..
