Luis Herrera, until re cently Carranza's military gov ernor of Chihuahua, has renounc ed Carranza and joined the Villa forces and taking with him 2,000 troops. From 1913 to 1915 Gen. Luis Herrera was one of Villa’s bri gade commanders. He with his brother, Maclovio Herrera raised a brigade in southern Chuahua that gained much prominence in Villa’s early campaigns. After the death of Maclovio Herrera, and the subsequent reverses of Villa, Gen. Luis Herrera deserted and joined Carranza. The peons in this section are loyal to Villa, which accounted for his ability to successfully withstand Porfiro Diaz’s rurales for eight years.

The new vein is said bv local mining authorities to greatly exceed in richness the ore of the abandoned mine. Samples have been forwarded to assayers in San Francisco. An effort will be made by local people to bring in outside mining interests.
