heute to-dtiy, when the depot quarter?
master threatened jo abandon the

tracks.
According to Captain Norihayic, the
big Harrlmari roml has declined to
switch freight from the International

depot near Hie encampment. This
makes it necessary to send the supply
Wagons four miles for Grbat Northern
freight.
Tlor, are several cars of clothing
and rations stalled oil the inland Great
Northern tracks to-night because the
wagon method is not adequate to the
demand. ,
Southern Pacific officials state that |
their engines and tracks lire being used
to their fullest capacity by their own
?work and that to attempt more would
bring about a congestion of the yards

Vmei'tcailN Most Active.
.Minister Limantour after reading all
dispatches from F.l Paso. Texas, out?
lining the alleged activities ot Amer?
icans in Mexico, particularly in the
destruction of railroad properly and in
the supply of arms and ammunition,
said that lie could not help being
greatly annoyed by such reports, and
those of n similar character which he
considered dearly showed tho Amer?
icans have been more active than Mex?
icans in the capacity of Insurrection?
ists In Northwestern Mexico.
He added that Americans who have
allied themselves with the insurrec?
tionary movement in Mexico can
scarcely expect protection longer un
doi their own flag, and it would seem
obvious that tliey should take their
own chances when committing depre?
dations upon property under a foreign
fl a g.
Wanted for War.
Speaking more in detail on this
point. \\r. Limantour said:
"1 am firmly convinced that, except
for the sympathy, financial support ana
actual participation In conilicts of
Americans, the insurrection in Chihua
huh and Sonorn could not long con?
tinue. Almost daily one reads of the
part taken by Americans in that In?
surrection, and thoy are the only
known leaders except Madcro.
"This morning's dispatches report
that a young American, a former brok?

leading a band of desperatoe."i along
the line of the National Kail way of
Mexico ami the Mexico Northwffern

.Marching Tpivard .Innre-/..
Ml l'aso. Texas, March 14,? Actuated
by d report that within the next three
weeks the Mexican' government would
try to open railroad communication
with tho city of Chihuahua, in an ag?
gressive campaign, oven in rural re?
gions, Francisco I. Mndero's force oil
1,00.0 ihsurreclds to-day was reported
to have begun a march of if?0 miles
from Cnsas Grandes toward Juarez.
Captain Oscar tj. Croighton, an Ameri?
can, who, with a small hand, is cred?
ited with having destroyed the greater,
part of forty-ilvo miles of the Mexi?
can National Railroad, Is still near
.1 uaroz.
Madero's reported start towards
Juarez caused little anxiety in Juarez.,
although it was asserted by tnsur
recto leaders hero that only BOO Fed?
eral troops are in that city under Gen
oral Navarro.
Colonel Garcia Cuell?r, formerly
chief of President Dia ?'s staff, is at
Casus Grandes, shot in the arm. lie
lins 600 men ami several machine guns,
which formerly were used for the de?
fense of Juarez. Colonel Rabagb, with
700 Federals, left Juarez ten dnvs ago
to repair tho Mexican National Rail?
road. He is supposed to be near Chi?
huahua City, cut off by Crclghlon's
destruction of the railroad north of
him.
Word was received to-day that de?
cisive action by the Diaz government
might, bo expected within the next
three, weeks, nncl that the action would
originate in Mexico City. Resumption
of business on portions of tho railroads
in Sonora and Chihuahua would fol?
low within a short time, it was stated.
No word was received to-day con?
cerning tho fate of fhe fifteen Ameri?
cans who wore captured after tho do.
feat of the Insurrectos nt Casas
Grandes eight days ago. The impres?
sion grew, however, that the men had
not been executed, but were still held
prisoners. This view was held by mili?
tary officers at Juarez.
Town Is Surrounded.
Presidio, Tox . March 13?via. 'Marfa,
Tex, March 11.?The insurgents under
General Sanchez. have surrounded
Ojlnaga, and a long range battle has
boen In progro' ? since yesterday noon.
Sanchez lias demanded the surrender
of the town.
At noon yesterday tho insurgent
army, numbering about 600 men. ar?
rived from Mulate and took position
on tho hills surrounding Ojlnaga.
General Sanchez sent a message to
General Dunne, of tho Federal forces,
inviting him to come into the open
and light in order that non-combatants
In the town might not be endangered.
L<uquo answered the. message with two
shrapnels that burst in the ranks of
the Proriunclados, but did no damage.
At night a detachment crossed the
Concho River and closed Gie road to
tlie west. The Federals' only way of
escape is across the Rio Grande to tho
American side.
F. s. MeCombs, a Scottish soldier of
fortune, killed two Federal sentries
during the night and obtained their
guns.
Sanchez announced his intention of
starving out tlie garrison. Ojlnaga Is
naturally a strong position, and to
Storni the town the insurgents would
have to charge up a bare elope in tho
face, of machine-gun fire.
A number of Americans watched the)
battle froth house tops in T'resldTo. One
original woman gave a "hattlo tea,"
and entertained her guests on the nut?
house top.
Tho Insurgents nre prepared for a
long siege. They have a herd'-of 160
beeves and four wagon Riads of corn
meal, flee and f rljoles. Kvory man
has a bundle of titled meat tied to his
saddle.

the candidacy of Mr. Sheehan scorns to b?

to havo backed up the executive fully.

Fistencu upon the preservation of the prin?
ciple of majority rule as a matter -?f pnra

the Legislature alone is constitutionally em?
powered to deal with the situation.
Summed up in a nutshell, the situation
apparently renialna unchanged as a result
of the conference, although Governor Dix
reported progress at its conclusion.
To-day's ballet for Senator failed trv show

there was no material change in the line?
