Consul Pressed to Seek Surrender at Torreon
Acting consul Cunard Cummins was compelled to deliver a demand for Torreon’s surrender to General Velasco amid reports of harsh treatment by General Ville. Front dispatches claim a rebel force was repelled at San Pedro and Hidalgo moved to reinforce Torreon as Velasco succeeded Hidalgo at Satillo with around 12,000 to 13,000 troops. News from the front was censored heavily, and Cummins faced gunfire during the mission.
