Troops in Attack Against
The Capital. :

Aqua Prieta, Sonora, April 27.-
Rebel troops are preparing to march
on Mexico City from the state OF
Guerrero, Gen. P Elias Gales, com
mander-in-c chief of the liberal con-
stitutionalist' army, announced here
today
The revolution in Guerrero, he
said, was more serious for the Mexi-
can federal government than the
movement in Sinaloa where troops
under Gen. Angel Flores continue
to progress toward Mazatlan. The
revolutionists from Sinaloa and
Sonora plan to join with the rebels
in Guerrero for the attack on Mex
leo City.
Capture of Mazatlan by the rebels
they expect will easily lead to the
subjeetion of the remainder of ST.
naloa and rapid progress through
Nayarit. which is said to be sym.
pathetic with the Sonora cause. In
Jalisco, the next state south, revolu-
tionary forces are. said to be making
headway, as is also the case in Co.
limo and the port OF Mazanillo are
objectiyes of victorious rebel troops
Michoacan also was reported in re-
volt against Carranza.
Carranza Troops Revolt.
Reports from FL Paso that force
of Carranza troops in Chihuahua
City had revolted gave strength to
the rebels assertions that Carranza
officials massing troops in western
Chihuahua for all attack on Sonora
were having difficulty in organizing
their men for battle Military head
quarters here forecast that within
two weeks communication by rail
from the border of the United States
to Mexico City would be completely
cut off.
Sonora officials said they had
been advised that Col. Felipe de-
Arce would revolt with his mer
at chihuahua City. They said ar
rangements had been made whereby
del Arce and commanders in two
other important Carranza garrison
cities in Chihuahua were to join the
revolution at a prearranged time
To Lead Federal Troops.
| A. bulletin issued at headquarters
| by General Gales today said Gen
Manuel NJ. Diguez, who was named
to lead lthe Carranza troops against
Sonora through Sinaloa, has been
unable to recruit forces in Jalisco
Many OF the Dieguez soldiers, the
bulletin said. had deserted in Jalisco
and joined rebel bands. Gen. Fran
cisco Murguia in Tamaulipas also
has lost several garrisons, which
deserted to the revolutionary forces
Colonel Yeldi, who was pro
claimed commander of the revolu-
tionary army by Gov. Jose Santos
