northern Sonora, and other Mexi-
can rebel officers today sought ref
uge on the American side of the
border, after a reported breach be-
tween civil and military authorities
at Aqua Prieta, said to have placed
that town in an uncertain status in
the revolutionary movement.
First hint that there had been
disagreement of the military and
civil forces of the city came when
P~residente Loreto and his compan-
ions appeared OF the American side
Of the border and sent back an
emissary to hold a conference with
General Ramon Yucupicio in COM
mand Of several hundred Mayo and
Yaqui Indians in Aqua Prieta.
The Douglas dispatch said the
Loreto party displayed evidences of
utter fear" and declared they would
not return to Aqua Prieta until they
have further assurances Of the po-
sition Of Yucupicio.
When called on the telephone
General Yucupicio admitted there
had been a breach between himself
an dthe provisional government at
Aqua Prieta, headed by Presidente
Loreto, but denied he had several
relations with the entire rebel cause
He said that he was still awaiting
orders from General Francisco
Manzo at Nogales.
Rumors that Aqua Prieta ives
about to return to the federal fold
were circulated late last night when
it was learned that General Abel

ora. headquarters of the revolution
in the north, indicated negotiations
may have been started by federal
and revolutionary military leaders
for a bloodleSs end to the uprising
there.
Opposing Leaders Meet
General Francisco r. Manzo, sec
ond in command of the revolution
airy troops, and General Abelardo
Rodriguez, head of the federal
forces in the Northwest, held a
secret meeting here yesterday. The
meeting started reports that a
~peaceable end to the uprising in
the north may have been sought,
but Rodriguez's departure for Naco,
Sonora, to communicate with the
loyal General Augustine Olachea,
was held as evidence no truce was
to be expected for the present.
The Douglas, Ariz., dispatch re-
ported today it had been informed
that Olachea had announced ne
would receive reinforcements from
the Rodriguez forces along the Dor
der through American territory. 1t
was stated the reinforcemenrs
would enter the United States at
. CaleXico, Calf, from Baja, Calf,
and would move into Arizona, to
re-enter Mexico and continue to
Naco.
May Lose Aqua Prieta
Reports that the rebel units at
Aqua Prieta, said to consist OF
several hundred Indians, would re-
turn to the federals were %circulat-
ed in Douglas today after it had
been learned that General Rod
riguez had conferred there with
Emiliano Tamez, Mexican consul
at Douglas, and Roberto Y. Pes
guerra, a special envoy Of Presi-
dent Portes Gil.
The possession Of Naco by the
federals is a thorn in the side OF
the revolutionary movement, since
it is an important point between
the rebel strongholds in the states
of Sonora and Chihuahua.
Olachea. with 1900 men mostly
Yaoui and Mayo Indians, is firm
ly entrenched at Naco, and has
been in communication with Gen
eral P. Elias Gales. commander-ln-
chief of the federal armies.
Federals Well Armed
General Rodriguez recently was
said to have a small force OF met
at San Luis on the Sonora-Baja
border, and a supply of munitions
at MeXicali, Mex. In addition, air
planes were said to be ready al
Los Angeles for shipment to Mexi-
cali. Large stores of guns and am
munition are said to have been de-
livered to the federals Of northwest
Mexico from American territory.
Preparations of the revolution
aries for an attack upon Naco as
reported yesterday included the
movement of 1000 soldiers from
Ortiz. Sonora, to rebel headquarters
at Nogales, across the line from
here. 1t was said two bridges be-
tween Naco and Nogales had beer
destroyed by the revolutionaries II
order to hold Olachea's forces II
Naco.
At Naco, Ariz., 275 American
cavalrymen were encamped neal
the Arizona Edison company
plant which furnishes the watel
supply of Bisbee and Naco.

FEDERALS' ADVANCE ON
REBELS SPEEDS UP

MEXICO CITY, March 14H(P-
The drive designed by the Mexican
government to break the backbone
Of the revolution in the north gath
cred momentum today.
Three federal columns moved
from eastern Coahuila relentleSsly
upon Torreon, held by the princi-
pal rebel army under General j..
| Gonzalo Escobar.
Retreating rebels resorted to Skin
mishing and desultory fighting to
harrass their attackers and some
| casualties were reported. Genera
ally speaking their principal con-
Germ was to reach the comparative
safety at Torreon.
One hundred and fifty miles to
the south of torreon General Gales
moved his headquarters to Frio,
Zacatecas, near the Durango bor-
der, to direct from there concentra-
ton Of the huge federal army
which he relied upon to take Tor
reon and smash the rebellion with
a decisive blow.
Rebels May be Stubborn
There were indications that if the
rebels chose to defend their strong
hold its capture may be more diff
ficult than som of the more opti-
mistic have anticipated. The city
is in the center of a hilly region
affording fine natural fortifica-
tions.
Forces Of General Gales engaged
in subjugation of Durango fought
with a small rebel force about half
way between Canitas and Durango
City yesterday and killed II rebels
and wounded about 40 others. Sew
en- were taken prisoner and execut-
ed.
Troops of General Andreau Alma
Fan and General Eulogio Ortiz adj
vanced toward Torreon from Sal
tillo and Monterey along a north
ern route, capturing the Puebla of
Hopolito. The column of General
Ssturino Cedillo followed the high
way from Saltillo toward Torreon.
Gales Strategy Apparent
From southeast of Zacatecas Gen.
eral Lazaro Cardenas led a column
toward the rebel stronghold. Re-
ports of his detection to the rebels
we're denied by President Portes
Gil, who said they were rebel pro-
pagand adesigned to mislead people

and advance the interest of the lost
cause"
The strategy of the delay Of Gen
eral Gales in an immediate attack
upon Torreon is becoming evident
as his campaign advances. BY clear
ing up Durango and obtaining
control of the rail head there, and
by obtaining control of the three
rail line sbetween Saltillo, Monte
rey and Torreon, he has left the
repels but one direction in which
to retreat is possible, northward to
Chihuahua.
Gil Is Confident
Meanwhile there were other as
poets to the revolution. General
Gales ordered the larg eforce Of
federals which engaged in the
cleanup of Vera Cruz to proceed to
Irapuato, G~uanajuato, to join with
militant Agarians there in holding
the socalled religious rebels who
have menaced western and central
| Mexico for the last two years.
In an interview President Emilio
Portes Gil expressed the most COM

last chance of the rebels to win had
passed. The president appeared a.
most carefree
It was announced that direct
| railroad service between Mexico
City and Laredo would be resumed
today as an aftermath of the re-
Capture of Saltillo, as long as this
| city was held by the rebels a "a
hour dctour by was Of Tampico was
necessary.

CANITAS BECOMES
IMPORTANT CENTER
BY JOHN LLOYD
Associated Press Staff Correspondent


CANITAS. State Of Zacatecas,
Mexico, with General Gales
Army, March 14.@P)-Little more
than a railroad station, Canitas
would be of practically no import
ance were it not for the fact that
the line from Mexico City branches
here, one arm stretching out to Du-
range City and the other to Tore
on, both cities in rebel country.
This circumstance has made of a
| few struggling huts surrounding a
fork in a railroad a point of enor-
nous strategic value, as has been
converted into a center Of great
hustle and hustle, with tracks clut-
tered with troop trains carrying
contingents of the Gales army to
the generalissimo's new headquar-
tiers at Rio Grande, northeast of Ca
nitas and about one third Of the dis
lance to Durango City.
General Gales move in shifting
his headquarters to Rio Grande
rather than advancing them along
the direct line from Canitas to
Torreon seems to indicate he in
tends first to capture Durango City
and then follow the railroad which
connects it with Torreon. BY thus
clearing out any rebels who may
still be lingering at Durango, Cen
eral Gales will have eliminated the
danger of a flank movement by the
enemy cutting him off in the rear
as he advances against Torreon.
The fate of Durango is taken for
granted and there are even con-
firmed reports that the federal ad-
vance guard has already occupied
it.
General Gales line Of commune
cations back to the city of Aguas-
callenteS runs up over one of the
highest points in Mexico, namely
the city Of Zacatecas, situated at an
altitude of about 5000 feet. From
AguaScalientes northward the rail-
road line climbs abruptly, twining
its way around the sides of the
mountains, with constantly curving
tracks. and doubling back and forth
in such fashion that one can look
far below at various sections of the
line already passed.
From zacatecas to Canitas the
railroad deScends. although not 50
abruptly as it climbs from Aguas
c%alientes. The entire region from
Aguascalientes to Canitas is heavily
picketed by federal soldiers, sta
toned at short intervals. General
Gales is taking no chances of an
enemy marauders cutting his COM
~munications. which would be COM
paratively easy if a weak spot were
left anywhere along the line.

ed out the second squadron of the
Tenth cavalry and a small detach-
ment Of infantry, all under COM
mand of Major Charles B. Halle
tine, of the Tenth cavalry.
Conditions across the border from
Naco, according to attest reports

tie between Mexican federal and
rebel troops at that place.
With the new detachment, a total
of 800 American cavalrymen and
100 infantry r now concentrated
at the border point.
