Most Serious Blow to Huerta Prestige
Mexico City December 3 The dispatch of a federal peace commission from Chihuahua to Juarez to treat with the rebels marks the severest blow to Huerta era prestige yet noted. Officials doubt the provisional president sanctioned the move though it aligns with Interior Minister Urrutia's overture idea. Also reported: Kidder, Waters' Pierce Oil agent, released on bond after sedition charges tied to railroad dynamite outrages. U.S. officials view Wilson's Congress message as signaling a gradual erosion of Huerta's grip. Rebels gain hope as seven federal generals evacuate Chihuahua City en route to the United States, led by Salvador Mercallo, raising fears of further desertions and border arrests at Presidio and Marfa.
