Ell PASO, Tex. April 10.-Advices from
Torreon say that Aguas Galleries. CAPT.
tai of the state Of the same name, and
the center Of the drawn work export
trade in Mexico, is threatened by q force
OF 900 insurrectos. Four hundred rebels
are said to be advancing on Comacho in

Porvenie mines in Sonora, all horses,
arms and supplies having been taken. it
is said, and many Of the mine workers
having been impressed into service with
the rebels. The mines are owned by an
American company.
Reinforcements from Hermosillo have
gone to the assistance Of the federals
driven fro Arizpe. and a battle with the
victorious nsurrectos In that vicinity is
expected when the two federal forces
form a junction.
Alliance With Indians.
The insurrectos have abandoned Topia,
Durango. to go to Velardena to rein
force the rebel force battling with the
federals in that vicinity. 1t is reported
the federals have formed an alliance with
the Cuencame Indians near Durango
under a compact by which the Indians
are to have their lands and rights re-
stored if the insurrectoS are driven out OF
the state.
Material is still being taken from here
TO Pearson and Casas Grandes for rail-
road extension work. The natives, 1t is
said. are rapidly leaving that region

Special Car for Madero.
SAN ANTONIO. Tex. April ia
telegram received here by Francisco
% Madero. sr, said private car has
been sent from the City Of Mexico by
Minister Limantour to carry Senior Ma
dero to Chihuahua to confer with his
son regarding peace negotiations.
What may have been nothing more
than a comedy of errors prevented a
start from FL Paso by automobile to
the rebel camp. Senior Madero received
three kilograms from Limantour that
col. TambOrel. commander of the
.Tuarez garrison, had been ordered 20
deliver the passports to any one who
No.,
This card was given to Senior Madero
IN New York.
Col. Tamborel did not receive the pass
night the Madero party, thinking some
thing wrong, determined to return here,
where they arrived yesterday. Mean
while, Binister Limantour was notified,
and said the passports would be in the
hands of a messenger on the special car.
Mystery Is Explained.
On the train from Ell Paso, Don Fran
cisco met Gen. Cueler. the federal lead
err. who lost an arm at Casas Grandes,
and the mystery was cleared. The pass
ports. he said. had been in the hands OF
Gen Navarro. who also is at Juarez. The
latter had said nothing to Col. Tamborel
and was waiting patiently for the mes
senger with the Limantour card.
Don Francisco asserted that If the as
surances are satisfactory he and his
party will proceed at once to Chihuahua.
He declined to view recent developments
in the City of Mexico and the warlike
