The Ambassador in Mexico (Morrow) to the Secretary of State

46. I am informed by Estrada that the garrison at Vera Cruz, commanded by General Aguirre, has risen and that there is an uprising in Sonora presumably headed by General Manzo.

The Government has closed the ports of Vera Cruz and Nogales to prevent the entry of arms and munitions.
