The Consul at Nuevo Laredo (Robertson) to the Secretary of State

Laredo, [Tex.,] April 20, 1920—9 a.m.
[Received 12:24 p.m.]

General Ignacio L. Pesqueira appointed Governor of Sonora by President Carranza arrived Nuevo Laredo last night. Proceeded to San Antonio this morning thence to some point near the Sonora border presumably Nogales. Report that Governor Rubio of Michoacán and State forces have revolted and that General Obregón is now in Michoacán furnished me today by responsible party.
