There was one disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. It
is known that these Included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal frr-nds of
the bride and groom and of their fam-
ilies and by admirers o! President
Wilrcn. Handsome presents were
sent by both the senate and the house,
that of the latter being a diamond Ir-
valliere which Miss Genevieve Clark,
as had been requested by the bride, i daughter of the speaker, bought for
and the number of guests was rather
small—distressingly so to many per-
sons in official a id social circles of
Washington who had expected to re-

At the center and east wing

i ed Juarez at night, bringing the total
i number of wounded rebels being cared
: for here to 116. Mrs. Francisco Villa
I has taken charge of the hospitals i
j Juarez where the wounded are being
{ treated.
Reports which cheered the constitu-
i tionaiists in Juarez, emanating from
i General Villa’s headqt arters in that
i city, were that uuo federal forces were
rbout to be caught between two forces
. of rebels; that 2,000 Sonora rebels
I were making for the ear of the fed-
1 erals and should be able to begin a
| flank attack; and tl.at General Manuel
I Chaos, rebel commander, from south
i of Chihuahua had skirted Chihuahu;
City, advancing cn the rear of the
federate and already has taken posses-
sion of the federal lines of communi-
cation and transportation to Chihua-
hua City.
After issuing these reports General
Villa's chief of staff. Colonel Juan N.
Medina, asserted the federate would
be prisoners in Juarez in a few hours.
The exact result of the action about
Zaragosa, where Salazar was report-
ed to be surrounded by rebels and
fighting an artillery duel, is still in
doubt.
Juarez is practically empty of am-
munition and supplies. Every cart-
ridge has been sent to the front with
General Onega, who, with 300 rein-
forcements, left for General Villa’s |
camp Tuesday evening.
Colonel Med-.^a of the rebel force. I
appealed to the American Red Cross,
through the local president, Dr. C. F.
Braden, for aid ir treating the Juarez
wounded. Dr. Braden wired Washing-
ton for permission to send aid across
the river.
at 4:30 o’clock about twenty-five
miles south of Juarez, according to an
chauffeur who reached
*uarez at 6 o’clock Monday evening
from Tierra Blanca. The entire army
on both sides was engaged. A report
that the federate were attempting a
flank movement from the west reach-
ed Juarez about the hour the frontal
attack was reported. Two hundred
| mounted men were dispatched to
Fancho Florec to hold the western
I n.outh of the pass which entered the
- . town from the west.
lYancis Sayre was the thirteenth to be stated that General 1
i i a- xtruia. u mi f]anfc engaged the
o’clock.
These reports came from American
employes of the Mexican Northwest-
ern railroad, who reached Juarez from
below Bauche. The reports stated that
the federate were first repulsed in an
| attempt to break through the rebel
lines, but returned with reinforce-
ments and a desperate battle was on
w hen the Americans left.
Simultaneously with the report of
the attack on the west came a report
that the skirmish line of the constitu-
tionalists on the east of Belen, Texas,
was being driven in and the federate
were advancing on Juarez.
The remainder of the force at
Juarez was rushed to the region oppo-
site Ysleta and Belen, while additional
infantry reinforcements were hurried
to Rancho Flores to help check the
flank movement from the west.
Reports from all sides at 7 o’clock
declared that all the engagements
were general. At that hour word was
received from General Villa that he
was holding the federate back at the
and ordered ammunition and
■fl^trushed to Tierra Blanca.
