Aug. 14. A lot tur received hero today gives dotnlls of a sensational fight between Mexi can federals and reboU on tho Ms- cnpahi liver near San Junn llautlsta. A band ot rebels prowling through thut section stopped a small river boat ami forced its officers and pas sengers to laiTd. Tho two officers In charge of tho mob favored "shooting ajl tho party, but tho 100 robols un der -thorn pbjectod. After n short dispute, ono ot tho robols, according to tho lotter, Btoppod from tho ranks and shot both offlcors, killing thorn Instantly. Tho rebels then wont to tho Mercedes rnncuo, took nil tho women mul children into a largo warohouso with thorn nnd proparad to spend tho night. Tho robols wcro soon by n federal lloutonnnt, who gathered a force and stormed tho warohouso at daylight. Tho rebels fired, killing soveral of tholr oppo nents, Tho federals tlion out off n largo tree trunk and battored tho door down. They did not shoot, but used tho bayonet, killing Sixty ot tho vebols. Tho otliorforty oscnnod, TO TALK RECESS WASHINGTON', Aug. 1-1. Sennto democrats nro in eonferenco hero to day to deeido whether to recess af ter tho tariff hill pusses until No vember. President Wilson is oppos ed to tho recess. Tho caucus in tho sennfu recessed ufter henring from the president that ho would not toler ato n recess after tho tariff hill is passed. On the floor of tho sennto nil ef forts to obtain mi agreement on the tin to for n final vote on the tariff were futile. Thero was n general discussion which nt times grew acri monious. Senator Simmons urged August 23 as tho date, hut Senator Gallinger nnd denounced tho democratic ''sc rret caucus" plan of legislation. Then Senator James took n hand nml indicated that Oallinger simply sought to prolong debnto in order to foreo deferred notion on tho cur rency. Senator Penroso also nt.lneked the democratic caucus plan nml charged tho White ITouso with coercion. Ha eon defended tho president nnd de nied that the sennto over had he?u coerced. On this Penrose said Hneou might bo "tho innocent victim of n bunco game," upon which Senator Williams sarcastically "kidded" Pen roso while tho chamber laughed. WASHINGTON, Aug. ll.-Ambas-sador to Mexico Henry Lane Wilson, who fttandi in imminent K:ril of im mediate dismissal by President Wil on for his issuance of a statement replying to the British foreign of fice's declaration Hint Great Brit ain recognized Huertn, provisional ly, only nfter Wilson had publicly lauded tho Mexican dictator, toilay reiterated bin criticisms. Wilson also admitted having given Senntor Smith inside information of the Mexico City situation. "I feel justified," said the nmbnu- sador, "in stating whnt I did in ans wer lo whnt purported to he nn of ficial statement by the British for eign office reflecting on mv course in Mexico. I have not attempted to embarrass tho Wilon administration nnd have studiously nvoided making stntemenla which might endanger the success of the present negotiations. I nm stitll of the opinion that the statement of tho British foreign of fice was misinterpreted hv the news papers which printed it." Wilson said that neither Scerctnry Brynn nor President Wilson had nskol for liis immediate resignation. It is reported, however, that Pres ident Wilson is n very nngry man because the nmbaRsador hns again injected himself into n situation from which ho was tacitly dismissed. Officinls hero expect that John I.ind, tho president's envoy, soon will Inkc decisive action in Mexico City. His task, it is believed, will be enser through Great Britain's nn noiincement that sho has recognized Iluerta only in his capacity of pro visionnt president. I Ins, it is thought certain, will tend to discour nge Huertn nnd will make him more amenable to Lind's demands.

It was jnst previous to this that Attorney Coghlnn had announced to Judge Vnn Fleet that the opening stntement of tho defenso would bo based on the contention of tho de fenso that tho Warrington girl had been persuaded to color her testi mony to snvo herself from prosecu tion under tho juvenilo net on n chnrgo of contributing to tho depend ency of tho Diggs nnd Cnminctti minor children.
