With the belief general here in constitutionalist circles that, the fed erate at Zacatecas have been rein forced recently and that they are de termined to defend the city to the last the hope of speedy capture of this important point is far from sight.

Hopes of a settlement of the reported breach are based upon thp concerted appeal of leaders of both factions to bury all deferences for the advancement of plans to overthrow the Huerta government.
