More Federals In Juarez.

New York Times 100 years ago today, July 25, 1913:
Col. Lerrazas Reinforces Garrison — Food for Chihuahua.
    EL PASO, Texas, July 24.— Fifteen hundred Federal reinforcements reached Juarez this afternoon under command of Col. Alberto Lerrazas. ex-governor of Chihuahua. Six hundred are volunteers, 250 from Orozco's command. Their arrival precludes the possibility of a successful rebel assault on Juarez, as the garrison is said to total almost 3,000 men now. They announced they at once would begin campaigning against the rebel bands near Juarez.
    Col. Lerrazas, discussing the disposition of the United States to stop exportation of arms and munitions to all Mexican factions, said:
    "The revolution in Chihuahua is now practically crushed, but we have to put down the bandits. If we cannot get arms and ammunition we cannot protect our own property and people or foreigners."
    Officials of the Mexican Central Railroad announced that four trains of freight, accompanied by a military train, would leave Juarez late to-day for Chihuahua, to relieve the famine there.
