MEXICO CITY, May 13.—Virtual martial law prevailed today in Mo- relia, capital of Michoacan, the scena of Thursday night's fighting between the police and radicals on one side and Catholics on the other, in which there were more than 100 casualties. Correspondents of Mexico City newspapers in Morelia give varied estimates of the numbeks of the killed. El Democrata says the dead aggregated ten and the Elcelsior fifty, while El Universal says merly that there were 100 victims. Federal troops last night displaced the city police guarding the streets and restoring order, and today. ac- cording to dispatches received here, they were patrolling the streets as a precautionary measure against fur- ther clashes which were said to be imminent.

The police, under Chief Inspector Vincent Coyt, attempted to disperse the paraders, and when they refused to acquiesce the clash followed. According to the reports the offi- cers were immediately reinforced by radicals among the spectators, many of whom carried arms. Within a few minutes the streets were filled with fighting men. women and children. Shots were fired and clubs and fists were freely used before federal troops could be rushed to the scene to quell the rioting Business at Standstill. The Catholice, a few of whom were armed, saw the fight was unequal, and broke and ran for cover, climbing over walls and breaking through win- dows in search of safety.
