News 10 SUPPRESSED.
MEXICO CITY, April 3.-People Of
Mexico City were ignorant today Of
the fact that Torreon had fallen and
that General velasco and the re-
manning remnant OF his command are
in flight.
For days there has been constant
clamorfng for news from the besieged
city but General Huerta has stead
tasty refused to permit the news
papers to print any reports as to the
battle. Today he again issued orders
that reports from the front should not
be printed. Not knowing of the re-
verses met by the federals, the city
is quiet and the people are still
awaiting news OF some sort. Last
night War Minister banquet gave out
a statement In which he declared that
reliable advices justified his saying
that Toreon was safe and would not
be captured.
