ments the rebel troops were report
ed victorious.
Orders were given by Gen. Fran
cisco Villa for the advance of his
troops late last night. His action
was fastened by the interrogation of
a wireless message from President
Huerta at Mexico City to Gen. Refu-
gio Velasco, commanding the feder-
al garrison at Torreon. AS caught
by Villas wireless station, the mes
sage directed Velasco to take the Of
fensive against the constitutional
lists.
A special train has been started
for Juarez to bring Gen. Felipe An
geles, secretary of war in the, .cabi-
net of General Carranza, to Chihua-
hua to command the artillery, with
Colonel Irwin second in command.
Within a few hours after orders
were given for the rebel advance,
dispatches from the extreme front
reported a federal movement west
ward from Mapimi through Canyon
La Candena. which, owing to it's
proximity to the federal outposts,
had not been strongly garrisoned by
the onstitutionalists. The small
rebel force retreated.
General Urbin with 1000 men at
Palayo, nine Spanish leagues to the
north, was ordered to advance and
Villa issued orders for the
advance of all the cavalry at Esca-
lon, Conejos, Peronal and other
points along his battle front to the
northward of Torreon.
A later report from the front said
Gen. Aguirre Benavides had pro-
ceeded southwark from Conejos in
response to General Villas order to
advance and encountering large
body of federals south of Peronal,
drove them into Bermipillo. Losses
were not reported.
General Villa is said to be impa-
tient for the arrival of General An
geles, in order that he may get to
the scene of battle. He has suspend
