Gutierez LUTION IN MEXICO ernment Will Admit to Obtain and Government is of Sonora Chooses Execution Rather Than Join Federal Ranks—400 Federal Troops Join Forces of Carranza. Mexico City, March 16.—There is a wide variance between the official and unofficial reports received in the cap- ital regarding the magnitude of Mex- jco's latest revolution. Information from sources heretofore reliable makes it appear that Carranza’s revolt is far more formidable than the government Teports would indicate. According to. the government, the rebel governor of Coahuila holds no towns, commands not more than 400 men and is chiefly occupled in run- ning away from the government troops. Has 4,000 Men and a Railway. Private advices are to the effect that he holds Lampazos and Busta- mente, in the state of Coahuila, and that he has at least 4,000 men, man: of whom are state troops, under his command. Furthermore, it is reported on the same authority that Carranza is practically in control of the Mexi- can International railway and is oper- ating portions of it. In addition to destroying the bridges, miles of tracks have literally been-re- moved, the rebels using a crane and a locomotive by which Jong sections are torn away at one time—a trick learned from Orozco when he destroy- ed the tracks between Chihuahua and Juarez. Governient Poorly Informed. The public and press in Mexico City are anxious for peace, have been opti- mistic, but are now beginning to re- cefve with doubt the reports of dwin- dling revolutionary movements, espe- cially in the north. Accurate informa- tion Is difficult to obtain and there is belief that even the government has ; been badly informed in many cases. ON PRIVATE BUSINESS.
