El Paso, Tex., Nov. 25.—Constitutionalist officers in Juarez at
noon reported the federals had been driven back all along the rebel
front and that Gen. Pancho V ilia had ordered a general advance
of his men against the Huerta troops, declared to be in retreat. An
Associated Press correspondent stationed at the top of a wireless
tower 300 feet high, three miles east of El Paso, confirmed the
rebel report that the federals were falling back south of Juarez.
He could see the maneuvers with field glasses. At that hour fight-
ing was still in progress south of Juarez.
GENERAL ADVANCE WAS ORDERED.
A general advance was ordered by Villa at 10 o’clock, according
to the information given out in Juarez. It was said that at that
hour Villa had succeeded in driving the federals back from the
center and that the only fighting close to Juarez was that directed
against Salazar’s felerals at Zaragosa, east of Ysleta.
SALAZAR AND VILLA ARE OPPOSED.
Col. Juan N- Medina denied any knowledge of the defeat of
Salazar ,but the report was current in Ysleta that he was a pris-
oner. It was also reported in Ysleta that Villa had personally
directed his men against Salazar and that he had' lost ground
steadily, Salazar slowly driving the rebels toward Juarez.

White House—a floral bower in itself,
everything was quiet and in readiness
for the ceremony at 4:30 o’clock. At
the executive offices some of the wed.
ding guests came early to pay their
respects to Persident Wilson. Colonel
E. M. House of New York, an intimate
friend; Cleveland H. Dodge, a Prince-
ton classmate, and John A. Wilson, a
cousin, were among the first to arrive.
The president had one business en-
gagement1—a cabinet meeting.
Some of the bridal party stopping at
the White House were entertained at
luncheon by Associate Justice Lamar
and Mrs. Lamar. It was the last of
the series of pre-nuptial functions.
The president and Mrs. Wilson had
some of their relatives and friends at
luncheon.
Mrs. Wilson visited the executive of-

president’s office and the cabinet room
and walked through the south grounds.
A score of long-time residents of
Princeton were early callers. Mr. Sayre
and his best man, Dr. Grenfell, took a
long walk in the morning and were at

Corry M. Staden, who was attorney
here for the Nicaraguan government
during -the Zelaya regime, conferred,
with officials of the department of jus-
tice early today, but said he was un-
able to learn much about the status
of the case. He intimated that if he
could get certain information from the
department he could produce Zelaya
without putting the government to the
necessity of serving a warrant.
Solicitor Folk of the state depart-
ment later today received from the
Nicaraguan legation a request for the
provisional detention of Zelaya pend-
ing the arrival of a petition now in
transmission from Nicaragua asking for
his extradition on murder charges.
When Stadden appeared at the depart-
ment he asked that Zelaya be given
a hearing on the extradition petition
and was told it would be granted.
Zelaya’s extradition was sought, it
was learned, on charges that he was
responsible for the murder of two of

placed in the east room was a huge

"OBEY WAS OMITTED.
The fact that the word “obey” was
to be omitted from the service attract-

book of common worship of the Pres-

/“obey” is not included in the Presby-
terian form as it is in the Episcopalian
service.
“In all love and honor, in all duty
and service, in all faith and tenderness’’
are the words which distinguish the

THE BRID AY PARTY.
The bridal party selected by both the
bride and groom reflects in its person-

rious pursuits.
Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfell .the best
man, has world-wide fame as a mis-
sionary physician in the bleak land of
Labrador. His wife, who was among
the guests at the White House today,
was Miss Anna McClanahan, of Chi-
cago, where their marriage took place
with Francis Bowes Sayre, today's
bridegroom, as an usher. Dr. Gren-
fell’s second return from his humble
home in an isolated island, to be best
man at a White House wedding adds
another chapter to a career already full
'of unusual experiences.

Schenectady, N. Y., Nov. 25.—It was
voted last night to call out all union
workmen at the plant of the General
Electric Company here at 7.30 o’clock
this morning. Trade union officials
in a statement announcing the strike
said 1,200 men will be affected.

plent when the strikers left. The plant
is run on the open show plan.

Both Sides Open Fire at an Early Hour
This Morning.
By Associated Press.
El Paso, Tex., Nov. 25.—Mexican fed-
eral troops resumed fighting early to-
day in their attempt to capture Juarez
from the constitutionalists under Gen-
eral Francisco Villa. Apparently they
depended on their heavy guns to break
the rebel lines, the battle opening with
heavy cannonading.
Simultaneously firing opened at 4.30
this morning southeast of the Juarez
race track, and opposite Ysleta, Tex.,
about 12 miles east of Juarez. The
federals used cannon in both attacks.
The appearance of the federals near
the race track indicated they had
worked their way around the rebel
outposts during the night.
CLAIM CONTRADICTED.
The heavy fighting at Zaragosa, op-
posite Ysleta, was taken to contradict
the claim that General Inez Salazar’s
federal troops had been surrounded
and virtually made prisoners last night.
This claim had been made by Juan N.
Medina, chief of Villa’s staff. Early
today reports from Ysleta were that
the fighting was heavy, the roar of the
cannon being plainly audible.
These reports stated that Villa had
taken four wagon loads of supplies
and ammunition across the border at
(Socorro during the night, together
with a considerable supply of forage
for his cavalry.
The sound of battle south of Juarez,
the center of General Villa’s battle
front, was heard here ’early, but the
fighting was not close enough for any
missiles to fall in Juarez or El Paso.
REBEL VICTORY REPORTED.
Reports received at rebel headquar-
ters at 9 o’clock said th’e rebels had
forced the federal center back to
Samaiyauca, 32 miles south. However,
cannonading could be heard in Juarez.
It was admitted at that hour that
some of the federals who had passed
the constitutionalists’ right wing last
night were fighting for the water sup-
ply al Rancho Flores, 12 miles north-
west of Juarez.
Passports were demanded today'
from all Americans who appeared on
the streets of Juarez, but persons hav-
ing no business in Juarez were hustled
back to El Paso by rebel guards.
HOTELS ARE USED.
All hotels in Juarez were cleared
during the night by rebels for use as
hospitals. Many wounded were report-
ed left on the field.

Washington, Nov. 25.—The struggle
in the open senate over the adminis-
tration’s second great legislative mea-
sure, the currency bill, which was open-
ed yesterday with a short statement by
Senator Owen, the administration lead-
er. was continued today when Senator
Hitchcock, also a Democrat, took up
the defense of the substitute bill agreed
upon by the opposition faction in the
senate banking committee.
Although the bill presented by Chair-
man Owen had the approval of the ad-
ministration in most of its particulars,
many prominent Democratic senators
are admittedly open to conviction upon
the vital points which split the senate
committee. A Democratic caucus will
take up the subject later, and attempt
to reconcile Democratic differences
and bring the party into accord upon
a bill that will be acceptable to the
house and to President Wilson.
The forces led by Senator Hitchcock
include all the Republican members of
the senate banking committee. - Many
Democrats are favorable to these fea-
tures of the Hitchcock bill which in-
clude public ownership of the stock of
the regional banks and a small number
of those institutions.
Senator Hitchcock pointed out the
importance of currency legislation to
the country generally.
“President Wilson, in making curren-
cy reform an administration measure,
has merited and received the praise of
the whole country,” he said. ■ “His wis-
dom and courage in bringing this need-
ed reform to a practical issue is to be
highly commended. Nothing less than
presidential influence would have made
banking and currency reform possible
for some time. I yield this tribute to
the president of the United States the
more readily because I have frankly
opposed and criticised him when he
urged hasty action which I deemed
dangerous.” \
The senator reviewed the differences
between the bill he presented and that
presented by Senator Owen and dwelt
at length upon the provision in his
draft to make the four regional banks
publicly owned and government con-
trolled. He declared that the house
bill and the Owen bill were faulty in
that they forced banks to give up a
part of their present capital for the
new system.
“To take away from, these individual
banks at one swoop one-tenth of their
cash capital was, in my opinion a mis-
take, it was to aggravate the evil of
lack of capital, which already existed,
and still further reduce the margin of
safety for the depositor. And so I
have joined in recommendating an
amendment by which the capital in the
regional banks, instead of being sup-
plied by the banks themselves is to be
supplied by the people of the United
States.”
Senator Hitchcock said that his plan *
contemplated regional institutions at
New York, Chicago, St. Louis and San
Francisco.
Senator Owen gave notice today that
he intended to keep the senate hard
at work on the currency bill until it
is disposed of.
“It is costing the country $5,000,000
a day to delay this currency bill,” he
said. I propose to keep the senate in
session until 6 o’clock every evening
and insist upon consideration of the
currency bill in all the spare time the
senate may have.”
Democrate senators at a conference
'tomorrow morning will take up the
program to hurry the bill along.

FIGHTING CEASES.
The battle had ceased at Zaragosa,
opposite Ysleta, Texas, twelve miles
east of El Paso. The fighting there
opened early. , A.
Inez Salazar, a former rebel general,
but now a Huerta commander, was
said to be leading the federals. He
was several times today reported a
prisoner, but officials in Juarez de-
cluared they knew nothing of his cap-
ture.
The fighting was heavy at Zaragosa.
the roar of artillery being plainly heard
in El Paso all morning.
Juan N. Medina, chief of staff to
General Villa, at noon said the federals
had all been driven back as far as
thirty miles south of Juarez, except
those at Zaragosa.
This was the second day’s conflict
between the armies, said to total from
10,000 to 12,000 men. The federals be-
gan fighting yesterday afternoon by
attempting to flank Villa on the west
in an effort to get behind him and
attack Juarez from the northwest, but
were repulsed. Then an attempt was
made on the rebel center, but this also
failed.
It was announced that Colonel Por-
firio Talamantes, one of the rebel col-
onels, was killed in the battle last
night.
A train bearing fifty wounded and
several dead rebels reached Juarez at
noon. Wh'en it returned south it car-
ried nurses and doctors. Americans
who returned from the front reported
the federal artillery doing great dam-
Vage to the rebels.
U. S. Marshal at New York Unable to
Loeate Him.

New York, Nov. 25.—United States
Marshal Henkel said today he had" no
trace of J. Santos Zelaya, former pres-
ident of Nicaragua, for the arrest of
whom the department of justice issued
a warrant here. He is accused of caus-
ing the execution of Groce and Cannon,
Americans, in Nicaragua and the war-
rant calls for his extradition to that
country for trial.
Zelaya was last seen on Saturday at
a hotel where he had been staying in
this city. The marshal said today that
his men were endeavoring to find out.
where Zelaya had gone but had been
unsuccessful. One report had it that
Zelaya had fled to Canada.
The general’s baggage was still at
the hotel uncalled for today.

THE BRIDAL COSTUMES.
Just what the bride and bridesmaids
will wear at the White House wedding
of today has been carefully guarded
until the event itself takes place, but
the general character of the bridal
’ gowns and toilettes has become pretty
well known.
Pure white satin of a soft weave but
with a decided sheen is the material
of the bridal gown and real lace and
orange blossoms adorn it. The mode is
that of the best designers of the day
and a slim effect is secured, although
the satin is draped on the skirt. The
outline of the round neck is marked by
embroidery which extends down one
side of the skirt. The court train is
quite long and narrow and is hemmed
straight across the square edge. The
lace appears on the corsage and makes
a fluffy frill to the elbow sleeves.
The bridal veil will be arranged in
the present fancy for the cap effect,
the lace being nearest the face and
orange blossoms giving the conven-
tional touch to the coiffure.
The entire gown, it is further said,
will express the bride’s taste in the
selection of her trosseau which is of
fashionable materials and made on
smart models without a vestige of ex-
aggeration in any detail.
Pink in varying shades is the color
of the dresses to be worn by the five
attendants. The palest tint of all will
be worn by the maid of honor. Two
I of the bridesmaids will be dressed in
a rose shade and the two others in a
much lighter pink. The material is
charmeuse and the over drapery of
chiffon on waist and skirt matches the
satin underneath. Marie Antoinette col-
lars and flowing sleeves of creamy
lace are smart touches. In their pink
moire hats, the trimming is of silver
lace.
Mrs. Wilson, wfe of the president, is
to wear chiffon brocaded in velvet in
an ecru tint. Lace in the same tone
and a fringe of mink tales is the chief
embellishment.
The bride’s traveling suit is in dark
green and her hat is in the same color.
BEAUTIFUL GOWNS.
Many beautiful and artistic gowns
are to lend color and brilliancy to the
White House wedding this afternoon.
There had been little information as to
who was to be asked to the wedding
until the fortunate ones had their in-
vitations in hand, when the women bid-
den had at once to turn their attention
to gowns and hats. This brought to-
gether some of the latest modes from
the centers of fashion, and many smart
gowns and toilettes were to be seen at
the ceremony of today.
Madame Jusserand, wife of the
French ambassador, dean of the diplo-
matic corps, who with her husband oc-
