Federal and Rebel clashes spill across Mexican border
Rebels repulse a federal sortie at Eagle Pass. Gen Inez Salazar plans to pursue the rebels from Juarez with cavalry. In Monclova a large federal sortie is driven back, with reports of executions of two Monclova businessmen. Refugees and preparations to defend Piedras Negras are noted as federals push along the Rio Grande. Nogales reports rurales deserting Ojeda and joining the constitutionalists. The United States investigates Ensenada officials for refusing to extradite a San Diego suspect. Bryan calls the shooting of Dixon a serious matter and seeks further investigation. The Juarez incident prompts questions on border guard duties amid ongoing revolutionary unrest.
