would not make answer to the com
nor issue his proclamation dealing
with the formation of a provisional
government In Northern Mexico until
he had reached saltilio. At the same
time Il was announced that the con-

departed from Durango on his way to
Saittllo by way OF Torreon.
The delay in the issuance OF the

establish himself as provisional presi-
den, at SsltiIlo.
