REBELS MAKE ATTACK ON LEADING PORT
BATTLE FOR POSSESSION OE CITY. MEXICO CITY, March 24. Warships, airplanes* artillery, cavalry, infantry and other units are engaged in a battle at Mazatttan, Mexico's premi'er Pacific port, which has been going on since three o'clock on Friday afternoon. This information was rather startling in view of yesterday's optimistic news from the Mazatlan front, which gave the impression that a battle for the possession of the city was practically out 1 of the question. There are no reports yet concerning the losses on either side, but that the rebels are making a determined effort to seize possession of the city in advance of the arrival of Federal reinforcements appears certain.
