A counter attack which would attempt recap- |ture from General Gonzalo Escobar was imminent. So scriously did the government| egard rebel succcsses in northern Mexico and capture of Monterey Monday by General Gonzalo Escobar that a large body of troops was |taken from the Vera Cruz campaign and dispatched to Nuevo Leon. Gen- eral Andreu Almazan, commanding | |the Vera Cruz campaign, was sent | with the contingent San Louis Potosi. | Meanwhile another federal contin- gent was advancing northwestward | from Tampico under Geenral Eulo- gio Ortez, and was bivouacked at Monte Morclos, Nuevo Leon, where it awaited General Almazan. Monte Morelos is a short distance south of Monterey. Another federal column started from Matamoras, northeastern Tam- aulipas, while General Barulio Ser- ratos at the head of federal troops advanced from Nuevo Laedo south- ward and reached Salinas Victoria, | a few Kilometers north of Mon- General Meza, formerly of cobar's command, ad- d from Coahuila to join with erratos contingent. Action Shifts to North | Thus in the space of 24 hours| government cfforts to quash the re- bellion shifted from Vera Cruz, where opening the port as an out- let to the gulf was a matter of some necessity, to the north where rail- road communications with the| United States had been broken by rebel successes. The contingents moving against Monterey will prove a formidable army, but such arc the natural for- tifications of the city bitter fighting may take place in an attempt to re- capture it. General Escobar has 2,- 000 troops at the for its d fense. It is believed he will face as many as 8,000 federals. The government announcement telling of the plans for the offensive expressed the belief Monterey would shortly be retaken and General Es- cobar defeated, Against reverses in the north the government had fo its credit vic- tories in Vera Cruz, including re- eturn to its fold of the unit commanded by Genera) Molinar.
