REVOLUTION IN MEXICO
DEVELOPMENTS FEARED. By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. New Y’ork, Nov. 14. According to despatches from. El Paso, despite emphatic official denials, rumours persisted on Sunday to the effect that a serious revolutionary movement was developing along the northern border of Mexico and in the State .of Chihuahua. General Nicolas Hernandez, ex-Chief of Staff of the late Panco Villa, is reported to have crossed the border accompanied by 15 of Villa’s old followers carrying machine-guns, ammunition and rifles. It is feared the force will grow to large proportions. Thousands of Villa’s sympathisers kept their rifles when disbanded and need only ammunition. Twenty-three thousand rounds of rifle ammunition believed to have been smuggled from the United States have been seized at Nueva Laredo.
