The reinforcing column lost twenty-four men and thirty-seven injured, including their commander Colonel Samuel G. Cuellar. Both General Madero and Colonel Cuellar were wounded. the rebels lost fifty-eight killed and an unknown number of wounded, forty-one men were captured. Of the rebel casualties, fifteen of the killed were Americans along with seventeen of the captured.
