La Libektad, Salvador, via Galveston, Tex., May 9. —Vice President Antonio Ezeta has been wounded in the severe fighting between the government forces and the revolutionists.

His injuries were‘so severe that he was forced to retire from the field and the command of the government troops before Santa Ana devolved upon Gen. Bolanos.
