HERRERA LOYAL 10 |Bride Accompanies Her Husband on 'VIOLENT ARTILLERY Explrmg lp o Itewrof China DUEL EAST OF MEUSE ; DE FACTO REGIME, Governor Enriques Says Herrera is Close After Bandit in Southern | Chihuahua. ‘ — \ GOVERNOR'S DENIAL SPECIFIC | GALVESTON, 7"0x , March 23 General Luls Herrera is conducting | active military operations against the Villa forces and has not gone over to the bandit leader, according to a | cablegram from Mexico City, received by the Mexican consulate here today. This message says that the Herrera | campaign against the Villa force is being waged in southern Chihuahua EL PASO, Tex., March 23.—Ignacio Puriquez, civil governor of the state of Chihuahua, sent a telegram to ' Consul Garcia at El Paso today de- | claring that General Luis Herrera, | commanding the garrison at Chihua- | hua City, still was loyal to the first | chief and not to credit reports of his | defection to Villa, Consul Garcla made public a message from Gevernor Enriquez, which reads “Your message referring to the press i reports regarding General Luis Herrera recelved. I have just shaken hands with Herrera and he is loyal to the legal gov- | ernment of Mexico. Do not give credit to reports in this matter.” Reports of General Herrera's revolt were heard at army headquarters yester- i day and from private advices received i here. They were credited, but an abso- lute confirmation or denial of the report was lacking. Much Apprehension at Bl Paso. ‘Whether or not the report of Herrera's defection was correct it was obvious that in military circles much apprehension was felt over the situation at Chihuahua. Brigadier General Bell said he had been advised everything was quiet In Juarez, and while his reports indicated there was i & Villa sentiment in Juares, he regarded R the situation as satisfactory. The gen- | eral sald every precaution had been taken to meet any possibility of an uprising In Juares. General Bell sald that he had no infor- mation regarding & vague report that General Pershing had taken over the Mexican Northwestern railroad south of Cases Grandes and that troops were be- ing moved south from that point by rail- road. The general did not know whers tho report came from. The military base at Columbus had not heard of the re- ported seizure of the raflroad. General Bell added that Major General Funstén had not advised him concerning any change of the army base from Co- lumbus to Bl Paso, but that the transfer could be quickly sffected. ) Rallway Badly Needed. early agreement with the Carranza for the permission to use rallway lines is greatly desired The main base would | | | | | - o T il 34 and once hiz command s ready & position to start & against the American il b ol e i i H : | i firmation of & report of Carranza’s army with Villa. in rex early today and r service, which was suspended for fear of trouble in that 5 H H E f 2EE i i i i i ¢ : i £ the military authorities planned to ruileve all Mexicans 3] i 1 it Y martial law in i igf i reserves, equipped with i ! i rd in Juarex, but baseless. government offi- have sent to Washington a coached in the strong- urging that steps be taken to Mexicans along the border, right of forcible entry and ry.

It was feared that one of his earlier moves would be the cutting of the North- western rallroad, over which General Funston hopes to recelve permission to move supplies to the American troops, now almost 20 miles into Mexico. To prevent this move General Funston s powerless, and it s doubted If Carranza's troops are in position to oppose Herrera, Reports at headquarters that General Gavira's garrison at Juarez was about to revolt, and that the troops at Torren were manifesing disaffection, were re- ‘garded with apprehension at the fort. ‘The Mexican consul here continued to deny their truth and reiterated his asser- tion that Herrera had not taken tne field. Early reports at Fort Sam Houston did not indicate any marked development in the campaign against Villa.
