FAILURE TO SAVE TOR
REoN
.ALVlREzS FORCES HIKED
LEFT THEIR GENERAL AND HIS
STAFF TO BE EXECUTED
sUMMARILY

Mexico City, oct, 1O,-The failure
-of General Trucy Aubert to get to the
city of Torreon in time to relieve it,
a mission on which he set out from
Saltillo nearly a month ago with a
large force Of federal troops-is ex-
planned by the fact that the greater
part of his 1000 men deserted him
before he had completed ha1f Of his
journey.
He had reached MADEIRA, rs miles
east of ToTeon, when news of the
evacuation Of the city reached him.
AS soon as the vanguard Of the re-
treating federal troops came into view
General Aubert's men fled with ali
their arms and ammunition
The report that General Aubert had
gone over to the rebels was not sub-
stantiated. He is said today to be at
1ipolito, 50 miles west Of saltillo 10
which point he retreated with the men
who had evacuated Torreon under
Generals Ignacio Bravo, Manguia and
Eseudero.
General Alvirez, who started with
1000 men, two siege guns and a nnm.
Der Of pieces light artillery to retala
the city Of Durango from tbe rabo1s
ana whose defeat caused the eyaena-
uon Of Torreon. fell into an ambus.
cade at La Iona, 30 miles to The
southwest Of Torreon. Relying on IN
formation that the rebels had left the
vicinity, he moved forward Sudden.
y he found both advance and retreat
cut OF in canyon by heavy forces Of
rebels who poured in a sharp fire
ffom both sides of the pass. General
AiYirez made a stout resistance and
managed to get word back to Torreon
asking for reinforcements
Anothe story of the same fiebt il
that the federal troops under General
Alyirez broke and fled as soon a M
first She was fired. General Alvirez
who was regarded as one Of the
0ravest officers in the federal armv
was captured with his staff and alI
are said to have been executed on ~
spot by the rebels
