OrOZcO Is Within
Four Miles of JuareZ

Ell PASO. Tex. Feb. ct was re-
ported at noon that General Orozco was
within four miles of Juarez. Two
machine guns and a mountain howitzer,
were today mounted in a position to
help I'm the defense of the city.
The revolutionists under General Oroz
co are in better condition for fight
ing today than at any time since
they started northward. They have
captured most OF the munitions which
were destined by Rabago for use in
holding the city pending the arrival of
Navarro's command from Guerro, and
which were abandoned by the federal
cOmmanGer when his troops were COM
PEELED to fight their way through the
rebed lines from BuaChe, ten miles south
of Juarez.
These are supplies that were badly
needed by the rebels. They are report
ed to include boxes Of rapid-fire ammu-
milton, some rifles. and large quantities
of rife ammunition. This last was a
"godsend," as Orozco's men had used
most of their spare bullets in the at
tempt to hol.! the Rabago forces in the
small cut near Buache, where their
train Of seventeen cars was derailed.
JuareZ, however. now is believed to
be safe.
Navarro a Menace.
General Navarro, with his 600 seasoned
veterans, who drove Orozco out of the
Guerrero district. is far more OF a men
ace to the rebels than the handful Of
poorly armed and badly disciplined
troops who now hold the city. Navarro
can fight, and OrOzco has a wholesome
respect for his prowess.
1t Is now believed the rebels entrench-
ed to the south and east of Juarez.
threatening to attack the city in a
short time" are merely a portion of
the Orozco forces left behind to deceive
RabagO. The main body Of the OrOzco
army, military men here believe, is hur-
rying south to ambush Navarro.
