MEXICO CITY, July 15.-The long
srpected break between General Pablo
Conzsles and the present government
.upears imminent tonight. Gonzales
i. under peremptory orders to report
Immediately in Mexico City to clarity
Mis- attitude in the attack made yester-
dsy on Monterey. A special train is
awaiting him at Monterey by order of
General Plutarco Elias Gales, Secre-
,sry of War. The opinion here is that
Gonzales will refuse to come here and
will revolt.
The situation has been precipitated
BIZ General Irinco Villareals attack on
Monterey. Reports differ as to the ex-
tent to which the Northern Mexican
Evolutionary elements were represent
ed in the attack, but the indications
are that the assaulting forces included
General Pablo Gonzales, the "little"
Jesus Guajardo and possibly Carlos
0zuna, VINO lead a revolt at Santa
Engracia, in the State of Tamaulipas.
0zuna recently was reported wounded
and in fight, but was forced to effect
junction with Guajardo.
Monterey Attack Unsuccessful
The attack on Monterey was unsuc-
cessful, and traffic with Laredo has
been resumed under a heavy guard.
The fighting continued for more than
six hours, during which, it is reported
here, Gonzales went over to the at
lacking forces. This report has been
denied by his secretary, who said that
General Gonzales had been in hiding
for fear the rebels might make an at
tack on his life"
When these various reports were re-
ceived in the capital General Gales
ordered special train placed at the
disposal of Gonzales to report here.
GONZALES did not take advantage of
this offer and the Secretary of War
sent him sharp message, informing
MIN that the government was not in
ciined to temporize with him further
ana ordering him to report Immediate
~ AS yet nothing more has been
heard from Gonzales.
~ Inc break between Gonzales and the
nuerta regime has been expected for
some tune. The characteristic lack of
Ilscislon OF Gonzales has been striking
y exemplified in recent happenings.
tis permitted the psychological moment
i0f revolt to pass several weeks ago.
Retained His Bodyguard
AT that time he withdrew from the
army but still retained his bodyguard
~ 4vo men, commanded by a colonel,
sie lowest ranking man of which was
sergeant OF the first class. President
oe Huerta recently removed this
saalo because 1t was a cause Of con-
slant friction with the military au-
!snofltles OF Monterey. The President
informed Gonzales the force was needed
ELSEWHERE This move was INTERPRETED
as IS displaying lack of confidence in
AZ 1mcials tonight ara taking all pos
sue precautions to guard against any
A0S'iie movement beaded by Gonzales.
