Americans Captured by Mexican Rebels While Marching to Saltillo
About one hundred Americans including women and children refugees from Torreon are reported captured by Mexican rebels as they travel overland toward Saltillo. Saltillo authorities refuse to send aid, fearing rebel atrocities, while the American embassy seeks intervention. General Tracy Albert with 1000 men advances from the north toward Torreon, possibly driving rebels away, but progress is slow. Deputy Coast General J. C. Allen led the refugees from Torreon and escorted them toward Saltillo, with news of their peril arriving as the caravan endured bad roads and limited rail service.
