Sends Guard to Meet Federals.
Threatened with an attack at Chi
huahua by feierals reported to have
advanced northward from Torreon,
General Villa today dispatched 1000
rebels as an advance guard to head
off the advancing federals.
The decision of the federal troops
TO show aggressive action was 0e-
lieved to have resulted from the fact
that the rebels had to scatter their
forces in following General Merca-
dos retreat to Ojinaga and two
thousand in Jaurez which leaves him
less than 5000 in Chihuahua.
With Torreon, an important rail-
road center directly south of Villas
present position, the federals have
base from which the rebels be-
lieve movement toward Chihuahua
