No Fight Yet.
EI, Paso, Tex., Nov,. 24- So far as
known in Juarez today there has been
110 fighting between the federals and
rebels south of Juarez.
The rebels were stretched across
the country in a line from east to
west 13 or 14 miles south of Juarez
lf.st night, while their commander, Vil
la, was in Juarez arranging to send ;
Buplies to them. The federals, accord- j
inp to Villa retreated from a point IS j
miles south of Juarez, which they had
reached in their advance when they
saw the rebels marching out. Villa 1
immediately camped and does not
know what became of the federals,
but says if they do not attack him
soon, he will press south after them.
His objective is the city of Chihua
hua. He declares ho intends to hold
Juarez, or die fighting.
Pancho Villa returned during the
night to his army after shipping sev
eral car loads of supplies to his men.
Rebel reinforcements from Ojinaga,
have reached Juarez. They number
300 and are volunteers from the east
ern border commanded by Major Ma
nuel Ochoa. Another hundred men
with additional horses are on the way.
Eleven Mexican citizens are being
held today as prisoners of the United
: States army at Fort Bliss in connec
tion with an alleged plot to organize
a movement to aid the federals in re
taking Juarez. Among the prisoners
is Colonel Jose Orozco, a cousin of
General Pascual Orozco of the federal
army and a former commander in Jua
rez. The Mexicans were gathered up
at different places in the city by
American soldiers. They disclaim any
connection with the federal army or
the alleged plot.
Laredo, Tex., Nov. Zi. Fifty Amer-!
icans and about 150 Mexican refugees
arrived here today on the first train

New York, Nov. 24. Fifty American
refugees from Monterey and Vera

the American Smelting and Refining
company at Monterey, and Mrs. Vir

Sun Diego, Calif.. Nov. 24. Lieu
tenants Eric L. Ellington and Hugo
M. Kelly, first division army aviation
corps, were killed this morning in a
fall of about eighty feet from an aero
plane. The accident occurred across
Ihe bay from San Diego on the
grounds of the army school oil North
Island.
No reason for the accident, was dis
covered although a careful examina
tion of the aeroplane was made. The
j machine was shattered, but the offi
! who examined it reported all con
trols in faultless condition.
(aplain A. C. Cowan, commanding
the post, was among the eye witness
es of the act.
"They were trying out u new six
cylinder machine," lie said, "and they ,
were between 80 and 100 feet from '
the ground when they lost control.
"The machine was a new one and
Kelly was not familiar with it. El
lington went as instructor with Kelly
as pupil. The machine had a dual
control which enabled either occupant
to control it at will. The controls
were connected together enabling the
instructor to correct instantly any
mistake made by the pupil.
"Lieutenant Ellington and Kelly
rose at 7:113 a. m. and sailed around
the field for about five minutes. Of
Mr. course they were making no attempts
