Rubio Navarette, after being twice de-
feated by the constitutionalists In his at
tempts to reinforce the federal garrison
at Victoria before the capture of that
city, has been forced to return to Mon

forces were routed at Montamorelos and
at Linares, in the state of Nuevo Leon.

hands of the rebels under General Castro
and Augustine Elizondo, according to re-
ports received today at constitutionalist
headquarters at Matamoras from Victoria.
There Is well defined movement of
constitutionalists from Tamaulipas into
the state of Nuevo Leon. both from Vic
torfa and Matamoros. 1t is believed here
that an attack ON Monterey is imminent.

ward of the constitutionalist armies has
received a check, the extent of which is
not yet known. That the rebel leaders
themselves have taken alarm and are
preparing to modify their plans of cam
paign to meet the threatening aspect of
the federal forces was however positively
affirmed.
Owing to the absence of telegraphc
communication and to the reluctance of
the officials here to divulge any of the
movements of the contending armies in
Mexico, which by any chance might aid
one or the other faction unfairly, 1t is
not possible to ascertain all of the phases
of this last military development.
1t is understood, however, that the fed
eral leaders in the north, who, after the
supposed defeat sustained by them in the
battle at TERRA Blanca, were believed to
be fleeing northward in an effort to find
refuge across the border in Texas. actual
ly had abandoned that purpose. Instead,
1t is reported, they have reorganized their
forces and begun a fanbng movement
on the army which the rebel general,
Villa, has rushed from the captured city
of Juarez toward Chihuahua. Villas line
Is very much extended and his commun-
ications would be seriously jeopardzed
by a sudden incursion from a formidable
force of 1900 federals, commanded by Oroz-
CO, and which is rapidly advancing toward
him, apparently with the purpose of driv-
ing him into Chihuahua.
May Entrap Villa
Meanwhile at least two other federal
generals with fragments of the army re-
assembled after the battle of TERRA Blan-
ca, are reported to be concentra ting on
Chihuahua, with the purpose of entrap-
ping Villas command. This movement
might fail, it is pointed out, through the
reinforcement of Villas command by Car
rama troops.
II the federal troops adhere to their
original plan of making their way into
the United States. instead of surrender
ing to the constitutionalists, they will
have to do without conditions and
probably will not be permitted to figure
further in the present war in Mexico.
Secretary Garrison today said these refu-
gees might cross the line, but they must
do so without any undertaking on the
part of the United States officials to per-
nit them to return into Mexico.
