Laredo, the Mexican town opposite
here, at daybreak today.
Gen. Carranza’s followers, num
bering about six hundred men, dur

many of them carrying what be
longings they could.
Numerous city officials, carrying
books and records were among the
refugees.
After a snarp exchange of firing,
the Rebels, about eight o’clock,
fell back from the factory, under
the hot Federal fire, and retreated,
being slowly pushed by the Feder

No harm to any Americans was
reported at this hour.
The fighting resulted in twenty
Caranzists and fifteen Federals
dead and nearly fifty soldiers in
jured.
The Carranzists retreated to the
hills South of Nuevo Laredo, where
they appear to be preparing for a
fresh assault.
