Denials from Mexico City

Mexico City, june 28.-Stories emanating from border towns in the United States which declare that important towns in the northern part of Mexico are in danger of being attacked by revolutionists are declared here to be nonsense. It is declared that there is no organized force in the north and that the bandits who sacked Viesca are being closely pressed by Mexican cavalry and will be captured within a few days. Reports that the town of Torreon is in danger of being attacked are absolutely without truth.

A special to the Associated Press from that place says that everything is quiet and that since the Viesca and Las Vacas raiders were routed all has been quiet in the State of Coahuila.

Reports that bridges have been burned and much track destroyer] along the Mexican Central's lines are denied by C. R. Hudson, vice-president of the road, who assured the correspondent of the Associated Press that not a rail had been misplaced by any one.
