Rumors of Gen Villa succession in Mexico unfold
United States troops in Presidio Texas warned both federals and rebels that if a battle overthrows at Ojinaga occurred there must be no cross border fighting. Reports say Villa’s forces advance from Chihuahua to attack Ojinaga as Huerta plans to continue in power with Geronimo Gerostieta or Gerostieta as president and Huerta stepping to field against rebels. Rail fuel oil shortages threaten Mexico’s railroads and could halt traffic from Tampico to San Luis Potosi, with northern routes at risk if rebels persist.
