This photo matches with another Bains News picture entitled "federal barricade captured by insurrectos". They show the same place. Taken on Lerdo avenue; it´s a isoseles triangle shaped block (whose base is Vicente Guerrero street), Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico. I'd like to ad a photo that depicts how it looks today, but don't know how to. Dr. Roberto Duarte

Up to may 16th Juarez was already taken by the insurrectos (Maderistas) but the peace negotiations were still takign place, Díaz resignation hadn´t been signed. The revolutionary army people were in a standby (Madero threatening if Diaz would not resign, the revolutionists will resume fighting). The "Tratados de Ciudad Juarez" were signed on June 21rst.

Katz cita a un periodista de El Paso Times (Timothy Turner) que describió La Toma de Ciudad Juárez. Entre otras cosas menciona que le sorprendió la estrategia de pelear dentro de la ciudad. Los revolucionarios llevaban el rifle al hombro y en las manos hachas, zapapicos y mazos con los cuales oradaban las paredes que unian las casas y así abanzaban de una casa a otra para no exponerse a la lluvia de balas, lo que sucedía solo al cruzar de una calle a otra.
