2 10,000 REBEL PLGH ON AFTES BIG VIGTORY g By JOHN W ROBERTS. ZACATECAS, MEXICO, June 26.— With 20,000 Constitutionalist soldiers rushing to Aguas Calientes to com plete the work begun by the capture of Zacatecas, General Villa to-day bent his efforts to the establishment of a new governmental system here and removing traces of the recent battle in which General Medina Bar ron’s Federals were overwhelmingly defeated. Three hundred rebel soldiers were detalled to gather up the bodies of thie slain Federals. They were piled into vast heaps, oil poured on them and ignited Smoke of these funeral pyres could be seen in a dozen differ ent sections of the city. ‘ First estimates of 6,000 Killed may. prove too large, but officers in charge | of the work insist that it is not far wrong. On some of the hills which guard the northern entrance to the‘ ¢ity, and inthe canyon through which the railroad enters the city, great heaps and rows of dead Governmentl soldiers were found, slain by the reb els’ machine guns. 1 Buildings Leveled by Rebels. | Zacatecas, the eagle city, has been the scene of battle in many revolu tions, but never has it suffered the damage such as that wrgught by the guns of General Villa. Row after row of buildings were leveled by the shells of the Constitutionalist gun ners. With the city in his control, Villa took no time for rest. He has prob ably had no more than five hours’ sleep since the city was captured. He dashes from point to point in the city, at one moment giving di rectiong for the dispatch of troops to Aguas Calientes, at another ordering the distribution of food to women and children made homeless by the fire of his guns and at another settling a minor dispute that may have arisen. “This is the beginning of Huerta's end,” he declared to-day. “Within a month we shall be in Mexico City. The hirelings of the assassin of Ma dero can not stop our progress.” The cars which the Federals had filled with supplies when they pre pared to evacuate the city were sent to-day to Aguas Calientes to help the Constitutionalists there. They will be of vast benefit to the Rebels and materially facilitate their campaign. General Trinidad Rodriguez, the (Constitutionalist leader who died yes terday from wounds received on Tues day, lay in state to-day in the Gov ernment palace, with rebel sentries at the head and foot of his bler. The body of General Antonio Rojas, leader of the Federal irregulars, was burned in a funeral pyre in the southern sec tion of the city. Mediators merse As Rebels ve. By LAURENCE TOD. MEDIATION HEADQUARTERS, Niagara Falls, Ont, June 28.—Thu arrival at Buffalo of the Constitution alist Delegates Luis Cabrera and Rafael Zuzaran, to discuss terms of peace with the Huertistas, is now scheduted for Saturday night or Sun day. The American delegates and the Argentine envoy, Dr. Naon, are con fident that Cabrera will keep his agreement made in Washington to bring about a peaceful settlement of Mexico's civil war. All sides waited to-day for word from the Constitu tionalists that Cabrera would be up held in his promise. Interest in the mediation confer ences has died out. Ambassador Da Gama, of Brazil, has gone to Long Branch, N. J, where he has a sum mer home. Minister Suarez, of Chile, will leave late to-day or to-morrow for Washington. Both men will re main subject to call from Dr. Naon, who will remain here to watch the peace parleys between the two Mexi can factions. The two mediators 'will come back whenever their serv jces are wantde. It is an open se cret, however, that they don't believe that a provisional government will be estahlished in Mexico until the reb els enter Mexico City.

Representative William A, Ashbrook, of Ohio, a Democratic lead er in the House, has announced that he has the signatures of a majority of House Democrats to a petition which he has been circulating asking the House Rules Committee to bring in no further reports for the consid eration of general legislation at this session, except on the seaman’s and workingmen's compensation bills. A petition similar in substance has been signed by the majority of the Republicans. 4 The turn that the agitation started. by the whisky men to force a vote at this session on prohibition has taken is regarded peculiarly satisfac tory to both sides. Having started the movement to secure a vote on the Shepherd-Hobson proposal at this gession of Congress, with a view of_ killing it because the temperance peo ple lacked the constitutional two thirds in both Houses of the Con gress, the whisky people found a boomerang. The movement aroused the tem perance people of the nation. Peti tions, letters and telegrams were pouring in from every quarter to members of Congress. They were loading down the record. Seizing the opportunity, the temperance people had become unusually active and would have mustered a majority of votes in the House, but not two thirds. i Again, the amendment was being made the issue over the country and threatened defeat for members who were advocates of either side. There fore, expediency was sacrificd to principle and the Ashbrook petition was eagerly signed. This leaves to be considered by the House at this session four conserva tion bills, the Moon posteffice bill and the seamen’s and work&zmen'fi com pensation bills yet to reported by the Rules Committee. It fixes possi bility of adjournment at August 15, 3ut with September 1 the most likely ate, Senator West Falls; ’ Hip Is Badly Sprained WASHINGTON, June 29.—Senator W. S.
