Bitter Struggle On

Road To Madrid

REBEL ARMY REVERSED

But General Mola

Still Confident

REVOLT NOT INTENDED

TO RESTORE MONARCHY

Madrid, July 28.

Both rebels and loyalists are nearing exhaustion, following attacks and counter-attacks in the northern mountains. It is apparent that the rebels, despite their reversals, have successfully reformed their lines. However, the loyalists are apparently on the initiative. Meanwhile, it is believed that General Mola, commander of the rebel armies of the north, is -concentrating his greatest force in the region of the ancient, walled city of Medinaceli, 95 miles north-east of Madrid, and is preparing for a lengthy defence if this is necessary.
