REBEL CANNON FORCE FEDERALS BACK A MILE IN MEXICO CITY FIGHT Ambassador Wilson Reports Rebel Victory, and Madero Announces That He Is Ready to Give Way to a New President. MANY SOLDIERS KILLED NEAR AMERICAN EMBASSY. Taft Still Opposes Intervention, but Battleships and Troops Are Hur- rying to Points Near Mexico. Censored Cabl: Despatches from Mezico. MEXICO CITY, Feb. 18.—President Madero has agreed in prineiple to the appointment of.a President ad interim. This was announced on the authority of the Mexican Foreign | Minister, Senor Lascurain, The news, which came out of the National Palace, became known throughout the city in the early afternoon. The position of the Government is weakening and the Federa! troops are apparently becoming demoralized. Desultory cannon fire from both the rebel and Federal positions was in progress at noon, The belief was then gaining ground that a >} settlement of some kind would be reached to-day. The situation of the Government forces became so critical that one ; | strong detachment of Federal troops retired from the capital and marched Seb eemennnes in the direction of Cuernavaca, forty miles to the southward. It was found shortly after daylight that the rebels under Felix,’ Diaz had materially extended their lines and were threatening some of: the Federal positions. Silas F, Gilmore, an elderly American, who has charge of ime, tant mechanical works here, was wounded by three bullets in the wht forearm as he was walking along Colima street. He got into the: middle of a skirmish between detachments of rebels and Federals, Firing with heavy guns went on practically the whole night trom both Federal and rebel positions, In the total darkness, however, , it was impossible to ascertain whether any advantage had been gained by either side. Just about 10 o'clock the firing became hot again and the big guns of the rebels at the Arsenal were brougbt Into play on the National Palace with ‘The palace was threatened with an attack of rebels who had \* flerce fire. made a sortte. One rebel battery bas been placed in @ position to the wst of Nisa street, within a block of the United States Embassy, and another one four blovks to the east of the Embassy. ‘These batteries, ae well as the Federal cannon, maintained silence and everybody In the vicinity of the region where fighting had hitherto occurred, which incldes what is known as the Ameri. t anxlety. can colony, waited In Madero Losing Ground, | | Hits Troops Forced Back, Ambassador Reports 18. WASHINGTON, Feb, ‘The tide of the ten days’ bloody and | indecisive fighting in Mexico eems to have turned and Felix Diag is gradually pushing Madero's soldiers to defeat, This news comes directly in uncensored cablegram from Ambassador | Henry Lane Wilson and is the first definite news of the real status of the | warring armies in the heart of Mexico City to reach the outside world | since Saturday night. The strictly censored despatches of the correspond. which pass through tne hands of a Madero official, hint to-day at what Wilson gives as a fact. | DIAZ STEADILY ADVANCING. | Yesterday, the Ambassador reports, was a continuous round of cone ‘thict during the day and part of the night and the engagement closed with Diaz steadily advancing his lines into what had been hitherto Federal, strongholds, Last night Gen, Huerta, Madero soxccnani ose ee : La tial wat pe demurrer war to the e a Ph ‘abe whi . a o made in « apartment plaintiff ahowld have fia @2 the der the ke \ APA OBD?) nding Aehirer the calling, cullire; of Mra, « ore reat wal te Nort t rety . ra n Mre He ta witht} iled fr n front of ry ‘or'n behalf, the jurymen tacitly ad okenthatos rhe botela end other ic places | corth Dakutad, Martine (New Jerse : eved the evitence| the city, ‘Theme stands ure gives [NY f , Petia asta tie er to the oahe licensed under the | uriman oy Yurk) Olly Withesson, ania), Paynter (entu een waltin dudlanay, Maryla sar of surtroona u went | her mands tightly clenched and her face und War drawn and haggard.
