New Republic Proposed in Northern Mexico
Rumors in Chihuahua say northern Mexico could form a new republic amid the revolution. Observers note Torreon’s delayed attack and Huerta’s ouster as factors. Carranza and Villa deny plans, though reports link Carranza factions moving toward Chihuahua as a possible sign of secession. The proposed territory would include Sonora, Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, Tamaulipas, and perhaps Sinaloa, with Huerta still holding few strongholds.
