Huerta’* men are busy denying that
tJenei*al Salvador Mercado, command
er of the Federal* In Northern Mex-
ico, made overturn** for peace to the
rebel*. In spite of the denials, how
ever. the report of Mercado’s action
generally believed, and is thought
to constitute the most serious blow
>et struck at Federal prestige.
Local Revolts Feared.
The prospect of local insurreotions,
fostered by frightened Fedora Is in the
« Hpilal or by hitherto silent advocates
of. the rebels' cause, is considered not
impossible. Preparations for defense
in event of strife within Mexico City
are being made by all citizens of
foreign powers except the Americans
The people of the I’nited States who
have remained in Mexico City to look
after their interests fear that any at
tempt they might make to insure
protection would be construed by
the Federal.* as hostile. Therefore
they have arranged to seek shelter
with the Europeans in event of trou
ble.
Huerta's officials are seizing upon
flimsy pretexts fur the . arre«*t of
Americans. If. S. Kidder, connected
with an American oil corporation,
was arrested on the charge of sedi
tion. although the grounds of his
detention were practically nothing
His entire offense, it is understood,
consisted of looking at the land
scape through his field glasses, and
in talking to natives In the course . f
Ids travel concerning general con
ditions.

CHIHUAHUA. MEXICO. Dec. 6.-—
General Villa and his rebel army oc
cupy Chihuahua. They gained the
city without a struggle and there
fore the residents are rejoicing that
they have escaped the horrors of
war that have hitherto marked every
spot where Federal* made resistance
to the powerful Constitutionalists.
Villa has n force of nearly 7.000
men, a formidable army, according
to the standards of .Mexico. He left
Juarez with 2.000. and 5.000 more men
Joined him on the way.
Recruits flock t«» the rebels in great
numbers Villa confidently expects to
have 20.000 men by Christmas, when
be will confront the capital.
Rebels Start in Few Days.
The march of the rebels will be
• onunued toward Mexico City with
in a day or two. Temporary military
headquarters of the Constitutionalist
party probably will be established,
and then Villa will continue his
march, leaving only a few hundred
men to garrison Chihuahua.
General Salvador Men ado was in
command of the Federal* who occu
pied Chihuahua. Upon the approach
of the rebels he sent a peace com
mission to treat with Villa. The rebel
h-ader rejected his overtures scorn
fully. but Mercado did not w'ait even
for the reply. He Med. with all his
officers and troops, ami with a num
ber of civilian refugees, who prob
ably feared tl.e vengeance of Villa.
It is believed that the peace com
mission was sent to Villa a* mask
to enable the Federal** to flee.
Federal* Threaten Mutiny.
The city is quiet, and the residents,
if anything, welcome the advent of
the rebels. Mercado. practically
bankrupt and without funds to pay
Ills disgruntled forces, had for days
been threatening to exact tribute.
His soldiers, on the other hand, were
an even greater my nave. They
threatened footing and mutiny.
But Villa has come, and is already
preparing to leave, and Chihuahua
sees the prospect of pear
Villa, will march on M< teroy and
the few remaining Federal strong
holds in North Mexico. He expects
little resistance at any place, and al
ready has announced his intention of
garrisoning those places with a hand
ful of troops and inarching with his
main army on toward the capital.

HAMMOND8PORT, X. Y , Deo. 6.
Lieutenant Hermann Wohl, a Ger
man naval constructor, to-day com
pleted a series of trials of a n -w
fiylng boat designed by Glenn H.
Curtiss for Germany. The tests in
cluded a duration flight of more than
an hour at full speed. This was fol
lowed by a drifting test, in wan n me
machine, with motor stopped. was
turned loose in a wind blowing twenty
miles an hour. The new boat headed
into the wind automatically and was
not at all bothered by the compara
tively rough waters.
As a test of speed climbing, the
flying boat was obliged to a.ia.n an
altitude of 1.500 in less than fifteen
minutes. This was accomplished
easily.
On the speed range test a maxi
mum of more than 60 miles per hour
was shown as an average with and
against the wind and a slow speed
of just over 40 miles per hour. All
of the tests were made with a use
ful li/ad of 600 pounds.
The machine itself shows marked
Improvement in minor details, ma
hogany being,used exclusively in the
planking of the hull and the lining
of the double cockpit. Seating ar
rangements are for four persons. ;md
the boat rose easily from the water
with that number aboard.
The requirements demanded that
the machine rise from the water with
in 1.200 feet from the starting point.
Just now the largest fleet of flying
boats ever turned out in this country
is under construction at the Curtiss
plant here. There are flying boats
for England. France. Germany, Italy,
Russia and the United States.
of these more than 30 are design
ed for European Governments and
but three for the United States Gov
