t:It'iJ a report with 'lie state depart-'
merit at Washington from which he I
quotes the following:
"The campaign which General !
VI11 m has been personally directing'
against tlie occidental part of the
republic lias had to date the most
complete success. The convention
armv has taken possession of the
whole territory of the state of Jalisco
and lias also taken possession of Co-
linia and at this moment is in the
suburbs of Manzanillo which port
will be attacked within the next few
days. The convention army under
the commands of General Buelna
ami other chieftains who have been
operating in the states of Sinoloa and
Sonora. have routed the enemy late-
ly forcing them to go back to the
p«»rt of Ma/.atlan which we hope also
to take very soon.
"Gem ral Villa is right now in his
headquarters at Guadalajara and
very soon he will assume perso-
nal command of the army which is
k Tampico. General Villa
has conferred with Duval West con-
fidential agent for the American gov- j
eminent who went to Uuadaiajar !
for that purpose.
"News to our agency advises thai j
the uprising against Carranza in Vu !
catan is not for the purpose of < pa- I
rating from the country but to the)
contrary it appears as if tle-se lc.ei- |
ers will render to the convention!
government support by General Villa j
to whom a com mission to neirotiai - !
arrangements has been sent."
