CARRANZA CALLS AIDE
HERE TO BORDER POST
Consul, After Conference at
Embassy, Hurries to San
Diego, Cal
The sudden doparturo of Theodore Frc
aleren, Carrnnza's Consul In this city,
for tlio border three days npvo became
known last night.
Four days nn Frezleres received orders
to proceed to Washington, and from there
left, according to admission at the Mex
ican Kmhasqy, for San Diego, Cal., which
was referred to as a most Important dip
lomatlo post Just now. Washington offi
cials were Interested In the fact that
Freileres was ordered to the border nt the
time that Carrnnza was drawing up his
note to the United States nuking the with
drawal of General Pershing and his troops.
Before coining to this city and acting
as the Cnrranza representative here, Fre
zleres was the chief of tho Carranza
secret service In Mexico. Ho was In charge
of the First Chief's bodyguard at the time
Carranza first entered Mexico following
the flight of Huerta. It was Frezleres
who discovered Villa and General Fellpo
Angeles In a house In Mexico City
while they were plotting ngalnst Car
ranza. Ho reported this to tho First
Chief and asked permission to slay tho
two. Carranza forbade such a course
and, privately, Frezleres nltvnys blamed
the First Chief for permitting Villa to
get away from Mexico City with his
skin whole. Frezleres contended that
had Villa been snuffed nt the Very out
Bet Carranza would havo had his Govern
ment In hand long heforo ho did.
At tho snmo time that It becamo
known here that Frezleres suddenly had
left for border polntp. It beenme known
that Roberto Pesquelra, tho confidential
fiscal agent of Cnrranza In New York,
had returned recently from tho border
and that ho likely would leave for there
Within a few days.
As soon as Carranza felt thnt he had a
grip on his country he dispatched three
men to tho United States. Kllsco Ar
redondo, a son of Carranza's sister, was
detailed to Washington; Theodore Fre
zleres, who comes of old French stock In
Mexico, was first sent to Washington,
later to Baltimore and finally made Con
sul hero on Juno 4, 191GJ Roborto
Pesquelra, a brilliant young Mexican and
known to be tho right-hand man of Luis
Cabrera, Minister of Flnanco In the Car
ranza Cabinet, was sent to New York.
When Carranza was recognized ho
named his nephew, Arredondo, tho pro
visional Ambassador to this country. This
caused some feeling as Pesquelra and
Frezleres had been mentioned for tho
place. It wns openly stated nt tho time
that Pesquelra and Arredondo had
words over tho nppolntment and that
Pesquelra might bo recalled from this
country altogether.
Following tho Villa plotting incident
in'AIexIco City and Immediately after tho
American forces evacuated Vera Cruz,
Carranza sent Frezleres thcro to organ
ize tho police forco of tho district.
Fj-ezloros' tltlo was General Inspector of
Police for tho Vera Cruz district.
The local consulate Is now In chnrge
of a young man from resquelrn's office
In tho Equitable Building, Now York.
This young man refused to talk yester
day. It was learned thnt Dr. T. O.
Pelllccr, who hns been doing diplomatic
work for Cnrranza nt various border
points, was on his way to take up
Frozleres' work nnd would bo named the
consul.
U. S. TROOPS CLASH
WITH MEXICANS
Continued from I'uge One
of which was not given) will havo been
established by Monday. Simultaneously
another dispatch reported that tho nd
vnrico guard of Brigadier General Persh
Ing's flying column was pushing Into tho
Stnto of Duran.o disarming nil Mexicans
on tho way.
Tho order for disarmament nnd confis
cation of weapons resulted from tho Par
ral affair last Wednesday when a mob of
Mexican civilians and Cnrrnnztsta soldiers
attacked 40 unarmed United States sol
diers while in Parrnl on a nonmllltary
errand.
Instendof tho hunt for Francisco Villa
and his outlaws being hnltcd by tho de
mand of General Carranza that tho Ameri
cans withdraw from Mexico, It Is being
pushed with more vigor than ever. Tho
mountains and desert plains of Chihuahua
and the fringes of Sonora and Durango
are being searched in every nook nnd
cranny by tho hard-riding troopers, under
Brigadier General Pershing.
The Increased shipments of nrms nnd
war supplies ncross the line Indicate that
the United States Government has no In
tention of withdrawing any of Its forces
very soon.
As a result of tho new phases, which
have developed In the relations between
Mexico and the United States, precautions
aro being taken by the military authori
ties all along the border to prevent a
repetition of raids such as occurred at
Columbus.
Ten thousand Carranzlsta soldiers are
said to be within a few hours' march of
the border.
Reports from the front lire slow, al
though numerous unofficial dispatches
have been received from newspaper cor
respondents. There has been no direct word from
Brigadier General Pershing since an aero
plane brought news of his arrival In the
neighborhood of S&tevo last Tuesday. All
the telegraph wires are In control of the
Carranzlsta Government and the de facto
organization Is careful of messages al
lowed over the lines.
Private advices tell of the destruction
of a great amount of foreign property In
the vicinity of Parral by Mexican looters.
A rnob stormed the property of the Al
va rado Mining and Milling Company, an
American concern, doing more than $2,
000,000 damage.
It Is believed that the Carranzlsta Gov
ernment will make use of the Parral light
of last Wednesday, In which two Amer
ican soldiers were killed outright, to mako
fresh demands upon the United States
Government for the "dlsoccupatlon" of
Mexican territory on the ground that the
presence of heavy forcesof armed troops
U inflaming the Mexican populace In a
high state of anti-American feeling.
Mexican official reports attempt to shovv
that Carranza officials In Parral finally
stopped the hostile demonstration of na
tives, despite the fact that shooting did
not cease until American reinforcements
arrived on the scene with a machine gun.
U. S. IS WILLING TO "TREAT"
ON EVACUATION; CHASE GOES ON
WASHINGTON, April 15 Recommen.
dutlons from General Funston which. If
adopted, may radically alter the Villa
hunt, were understood to be In the hands
of President Wilson and Secretary of War
Raker today.
They were contained In a long code
message, the subject of a midnight con
ference at the Whte House. The Funston
message am pot give news of the Parral
fight between American yoldters and
civilians, and the fourth day Blnce that
fight began without word from the front.
Speculation as to contents of the Fun
ston, dispatch ranged from requests for
more troops to the taking over of Mexican
lines (isefu In transporting supplies, and
reiteration of Funston's previous request
for shifting his base from Columbus.
Meanwhile the American expedition to
ret Villa continues. Although Secretary
Lansing ban declared he is prepared to
treat with Carranza over the withdrawal
otj the troops. It is known no time limit
has as yet bern considered. It Is assumed
that the Stale Department will not recog
nize CarraiAa as In control of the situa
tion, utiles his own forces are able to
achieve te object Of the American ex
pcilUonthe capture of Villa.
I noJiWal messages still told of
utfcood Parral battle! hitherto ucro-
ported officially. A border story, hint
ing that n Carranza representative was
en route tor Japan with motives Inimical
to tho United States, was branded here
ns merely an effort to drag the "yel
low peril" "Into n situation already
frauctht with sufficient dangerous pos
sibilities. Carranza's proposals for a protocol,
now held up. show that the de facto
regime sought to limit strictly the num
ber of men to be engaged nnd tho time
to bo consumed. An Invading nrmy,
operating under a reciprocity nrrango
ment, wns to consist of 1000 cavalrymen
only, towns were not to be occupied and
tho forces were to withdraw when their
object wns accomplished. The State
Department countered these proposals
with no limitation on the invading
force's slzo and nought actual co-operation
from the forces of tho invaded
country. Secretary Lansing said no
limit to tho expedition had been ngrced
upon.

WASHINGTON. April 15. Advices re
ceived by the Mexican confidential agency
hero todny Indicate that General Carranza
hi future Is going to conduct his cam
paign against Zapata from Mexico City.
Theso advices stated that the advance
guards of Carranzistas were operating out

that Carranza's entrance Into the city

ment. Tho people chcred him all day. It
Is saldthat Carranza will remain In the

MASSING OF CARRANZISTAS
RELIEVED "UNFRIENDLY ACT"
AVASHINGTON, April 1C Tho United
States Government Is seriously concerned
over the massing of Carranzlsta troops
along the lines of General Pershing's com
munication In Mexico. This feeling of
unrest Is added to by nn absolute failure
to get Into touch with General Pershing,
who Is at the extreme front In person.
Pershing has not reported In three days,
olticlals say, nnd General Fred Funstou!
seems to bo unablo to get Into touch with
him. Army aviators aro now trying to
reach Pershing to find out Just what Is tho
matter.
It was 'admitted at the White House to
day that last night's midnight conference
between Secretary of War Bnkcr and
President Wilson dealt with tho reported
movement of Carranzlsta troops. The
fact that some 5000 men, well armed and
equipped, under the command of General
Gomez havo been moved from Sonora to
Chihuahua, where they are In position to
try to cut ,oft the American expedition,
within the last 48 hours, is declared by
army officials to be an unfriendly act. Sec
retary Baker so told the President and it
Is understod that the State Department
now Is seeking an explanation of that
move. '
The. general tension over the Mexican
situation was growing today.
Officials frankly Bay that they fear trou
ble tomorrow, as Sunday Is a feast day In
Mexico.
AMERICAN FLEET HELD READY
FOR QUICK DASH TO MEXICO
WASHINGTON, April IB. In view of
the International situation, the Atlantic
battleship fleet will be held In readiness
to put to sea on short notice. A statement
to this effect was made by an officer of tho
Navy Department.
Tht fleet, under command of Admiral
Fltecher, Is on Its way north from Guan
tanamo and is expected to reach Hamp
ton Roads today. The schedule calls for
the vessels then to disperse and go to
their home yards, where the men will re
ceive shore leav and repairs of a minor
character will be made,
The service which the batleshlp fleet
could render In Mexican waters In cse
of serious trouble would be of Inestimable
value, officials explain. The first concern
of the United States Government would
be to provide tor the safety of Americans
and other foreigners In Mexico.
The United States now has four naval
vessels ready for emergency lii Mexican
waters. The battleship Kentucky, with
Commander Dlsmuth In command, Is at
Vera Cruz; the Machlas, under command
of Lieutenant Commander Marshall, an!
the Marietta, commanded by Commander
Scott, are at Tamplco, and the Wheeling,
commanded by Commander Watson, Is nt
Puerto Mexico.
U, S. COLUMN AT PARRAL
CUT OFF, FUNSTON FEAnS
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., April 15. Al
though nearly 4S hours have elapsed since
the first reports of the fighting at Parral
arrived from Mexican sources, General
Funston today was still without any of
ficial dispatches from General Pershing.
The )ong delay Is Increasing the feeling
of alarm here for the 1(0 ccvalrymen at
tacked at Parral. If Is feared that they
have been unable to rejoin the main ad
vanced column and report back to Gen
eral Pershing.
Accounts of the fighting recelvtu from
Consul Marlon Letcher at Chihuahua con
vinced officials here that the American
troops obeyed Instructions and camped out
side Parral. despite the Carranza state
ment that they encamped Inside the city.
Letcher reported as his latest information
that a detachment of unarnied American
troopers entered Parral to obtain supplies,
and were fired upon by Carranza troops
and cltlMns. who killed two Americana.
The others retreated to their camp out
side Parral, and, turning a machine jrun
usaa their assailants, killing 40t ,
AMERICANS BRING HARVEST TO MEXICAN PEDDLERS
Commerce has not thrived in the region below tho Rio Grnndc for
the last few years and the market for frljotcs and tortillas ha3
been rather sluggish. Hence the presence of United States troopers
has been welcome to nt least ono Section of the native population.
