The home guards Of the northwest

1000 men, have been brought here to
garrison the city and guard the rail-
road south Of here.
It is asserted in wei informed

and that they suffered heavy losses
in the Jimenez fights last week.

This fact has created some uneasiness.
Near Bustamante station. south of
Santa Rosalia, some bridges were

isolate this city from the south.
However. Gen Murguia, who was at
Santa Rosalias effected repairs and
