JUARBZ, Mex, March 1T.-Authorita-
tive announcement was made here this
afternoon that General Villa had left
Chihuahua before dawn today. moving
south toward Torreon.
The news OF vlIla's departure was taken
as indicating that the assault on Torreon
would begin at once.
Those familiar with the tactics of the
rebel leader believed that he would not
delay the attack after making q first
move toward the south.
This belief was borne out by the rigid
telegraph censorship which Villa insti-
tuted at Chihuahua two days ago, and
the suspension of railroad traffic, prob
ably in order 20 secure all available equip
ment for the troop movement to the
south. The main rebel army, however.
has been held in position for attack for
several weeks, and since the raising Of
the embargo on munitions of war. has
been well smmunitioned and armed.
Insurgent officials here apparently were
as ignorant Of Villas plans or movements
as the public so rigid had been the en-
barge on all news from the south. Rail-
road telegraph lines also were included in
the censorship and ban was placed upon
all code or personal messages.
