Preparations TO Resist Attack.
MATAMoROs, Mexico, Feb. 3,
Via BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Feb. 8, 1921
II is now openly stated that General Cortina
will not be permitted to enter this city. It is,
however, expected that he will not attempt it,
for, if captured by the revolutionary Gen eral
Quiroga, who will probably arrive soon, he
will be shot. Neither can Cortina cross over
to the American side, owing to the fact that
there are several indictments of murder
against him.
Guns have been placed in the Notifications
of Aatamoros to-day, and preparations are
being made to resist the attack of the revolu-
tionSdts under QuirOga. General Rocha, the
government commander, is expected here
from Vera Cruz.
