According to these refugees rebel

which federal troops have been with
drawn 1t was reported in the capital
before the refugees left that General
Billa's forces were advancing south
with the intention of taking the city,
lest the riotirg get beyond the con
troll of the Huerta authorities.
The inhabitants of many towns to
the north were said to be rioting and
throwing out the officials. 1t was
known in the capital that the northern
rebels had refused to rally around
Huerta as the alleged defender of the
nation against American invasion and
although some of the southern rebels
had arrived in the outskirts of the
city, ostensibly to make peace with
the dictator, there was a fear in the
capital that these bands were more
bent on getting loot than in joining
Huerta's forces.

In particular, it is said. the people

by the discovery that he was the orig
