 in Holding Their Men

Agua Prieta, Sonora, April 27.--Reb- 'el troops are preparing to march on Mexico City from the state of Guer- rero, General P Elias Gales, com mander in chief of the Liberal con stitutionalst" army, announced here today.
 The revolution in Guerrero, he said, was more serious for the Mexican fed- eral government than the movement in Sinaloa where troops under Gem cral Angel Flores continue to prog ress toward Mazatlan. The revolu- ticnists from Sinaloa and Sonora join with the rebels in Guerrero for the attack on Mexico City.
 They expect the capture of Mazat- Ian by the rebels will easily lead to the subjugation of the balance of Si. naloa and rapid progress through Nayarit, which is said to be sympa- thetic with the Sonora cause. In Jalisco, the next state south, revolu- tionary forces are said to be making headway, as in Colima, where the capital city of Colima and the port of Manzanillo are objectives of victor ious rebel troops. Michoacan also was reported in revolt against Car- ranza.
 General Alvaro Obregon was said to be directing the revolutionary movements in Guerrero. The reports from Fl Paso that a force of Car- ranza troops in Chihuahua City had revolted gave strength to the rebels asserting that Carranza officials are massing troops in western Chihua- hua for an attack on Sonora were having difficulty in organizing for battle.
 Military Headquarters here forecast that within two weeks communities ton by rail from the border of the United States to Mexico City would be completely cut off.
 l.. More soldiers arrived here today from eastern Sonora and southern parts of the state. It was said at: military headquarters that should Carranza postpone an attack on S0- nora, rebel troops from this state would attack Chihuahua.
 Another to Desert.
 Sonora officials said they had been advised that Col. Felipe Del Arco would revolt with his men at Chihua- hua City. A bulletin issued at head quarters by General Gales today. said General Manuel M. Dieguez who was named to lead the Carranza troops against Sonora through Sina- loa, or to recruit forces in Jalisco. Many of the Dieguez soldiers, the bulletin said had deserted in JaliscQ and joined the rebel band. General Francisco Murguia in Tamaulipas al- so has lost several garrisons which deserted to the revolutionary forces.
 Col. Yoldi, who was proclaim ed commander of the revolutionary army in Nayarit by Gov. Jose Sam tos Godinez is harrassing federal troops under Gen. Francisco de Sam tiago, who has been unwilling to 70 to the aid of Carranza troops in Si-N naloa. the bulletin said.
 Several regiments of infantry has been formed from Sinaloa recruits. gained by General Flores since he in- vadcd that state, it was said. and these will be formed into an army division to be known as the Sinaloa army corps of the "liberal constitu- tionalist" army.
