MEXICO CITY, March 15 (®.— Capture of Durango would open an- other rail advance to Torreon for the | federal forces. The city, has about 40.- | 000 population, and, like Torreon, splen: did natural mountain fortifications. At Torreon, 150 miles northeast of Durango, the Tebels are reported to be | strongly intrenched and in some circles there is less hope of evacuation of the | city without a battle than has been the | case heretofore. Flight northward to Chihuahua offers the rebel Gen. J. Gonzalo Escobar and | his forces an opportunity for possible | escape into the United States; to re- main in the city they court a decisive battle with the federals on which their cause must either rise or fall. Five Columns Move on City. ‘The federal offensive against the city | took the form today of five separate columns moving in 1ts direction. Three of these came from the east under the | command of Gens. Andreu Almazan, Saturino Cedillo and Lazaro Cardenas. A fourth offensive body, part of the the railroad between Ganitas, Zacatecas and Torreon. The fifth, under com- mand of Gen, Calles himself, was en- gaged in the attack on Durango, prior to a movement against Torreon from the southwest. The three divisions moving from the east expect to converge at Lake Viezca, midway between Torreon and Parras and 60 kilometers east of Torreon. Un- confirmed reports said part of the forces of Gen. Almazan had already reached this point. The Eastern armies have, in addition to cavalry and infantry contingents, four regiments of artillery for use in bombardment of Torreon if it is neces- sary to its capture. Both from the east and southeast effective Mexican methods of tearing up railway lines are dclaying the federal | advance. The retreating rebels took lo- | comotives and attaching chains to the steel ralls, pulled them from the ties, twisting and breaking them. It is said here Gen. Calles will find | the liné from Durango to Torreon | much less damaged in this way than other lines entering the Coahuilan city, and that knowledge of this accounted partly for his determination to secure control of the state before attack on| n.
