With 4,000 soldiers, commanded by nine generals, supplied with stores of provisions taken over from the Amer- ican side, the federals had provided every precaution to resist the 4,200 rebels advancing from Chihuahua un- der General Ortega. The rebels, fatigued and short of rations after their long seven-day overland journey of more than 150 miles, were resting at a ranch at the south end of a canyon known as La Mula pass. The prospects were that the whole rebel army would not get through the pass and in firing distance of the fed- erals within several days. So far no firing between the oppos- img forces has occurred. The fed- erals have not left Ojinaga to check the rebels. Officers of the federal army, includ- ing General Francisco Castro, are confident that as long as they remain im the fortifications of Ojinaga, which is regarded as impregnable to an en- emy except of vastly superior num- bers, they will be safe.

Peterson of Minnapolis, candidate for senator in the same primary, have been interviewing members of the league in the hope of getting the endorsement, it is re- ported. But according to the reports the ruling forces in the league have agreed on Steenerson and will at- tempt to put through the endorse- ment.
