.Trcvino Orders His Men to
Avoid Any Possible Clash,
Gavlra Will Take Up
Fighjt on Outlaws
f if. GATHERS FRESH FORCES
Eli rASO. Texas., June 5. Any Carranza
toldler who fires on an American wilt be
punished by death, and any civilian attach
ing Americans will be subject to charKcs
of treason, punlshabla also by death. This
Is the substance of a decrco Issued by C?cn
tral Jacinto Trevlno, division commander
lit Chihuahua City. The order Is designed
to prevent friction between American nnd
Jte.tlc.in troops.
This Is the second development, from the
rcrshlwr-GavIra conference nt Nuevo
Casas Ohindcs last Thursday", the drat hav
ing been the appointment of General Gavlra,
at the stiggestlbh of General .Pershing, to
undertake personally the campaign ngalnst
Villa bandits.
The Mexican troops are under orders not
to fire upon Americans, nnd, If nttneked,
not to return tho tire, but to report the In
cident to Wliaicvcr iieitui(uuiioin iiiejt urn
attached and a'valt further orders.
General Gavlra said today ho would
leave tomorrow for the. bandit zone to be
gin his operations, which he said would be
so vigorously prosecuted as to leave no
doubt as to the ability of Carranza forces
to deal with nny form of disorder In tho
State. Ho Bald his command would num
ber between 8000 nnd 10.000 men. Most of
these, he saldr would bo converted Into
cavalry as' rapidly as mounts could bo ob
tained. About 4000 are now' cavalry.
The entire forco will then spread out
patrols ovor "every foot of ground In
Western Chihuahua, searching every cave,
tree, rock, ravine, settlement and house
where a bandit could hide." Tho troops,
h dld. would onerat5along the lines
which made the old Federal Huralcs so
effective a hard pursuit and a quick
finish. . ,
General Gonzales has been assigned to
take command of Juarez whllo Gavlra Is
In the field.
On the American side of the line a
general strengthening of nrtlltery forces
ws noted today. Two batteries of field
artillery from Fort Sill, Okla., have been
ordered to Eaglo Pass and Laredo, reliev
ing two batteries of the Cth Field Artillery,
which will go to Douglas, Arl, Brigadier
General George Bell., Jr., commanding here,
Is understood to have asked that the 5th
Field 'Artillery at Fort Sam Houston be
stationed here.
"The first .Arizona Infantry came Into
being yesterday evening by tho mustering
in of the last three companies of the Arl
lona National Guard. Tho regiment has
0 officers nnd about 850 men. All of the
Texas regiments now having been mus
tered Into service, the New Mexico N'ntlonal
Guard Is tho only border mtlltla regiment
not mustered In, becauso the regiment
lacked the requisite peaco strength r um
bers. '
PRESIDENT DRAFTS REPLY
TO DEMANDS BY CARRANZA
WASHINGTON, Juno 5. President .Wil
son today began the draft of his reply to
the latest note from Carranza demanding
withdrawal of American troops, or expla
nation of why the United Stntes should keep
Its troops on Mexican soil.
It Is the Administration's present Inten
tion to have Its reply In Cnrranza's hands
before the end of the week perhaps before
Thursday to forestall as much as possible
expected adverse criticism of tho Presi
dent's Mexican policy at the Chicago con
vention. With the personal help of Secretary
Lansing, It Is said In high Administration
circles, the President might comploto a
rough draft In time for Cabinet considera
tion tomorrow.
That the troop withdrawal sugestlon
would be refused seemed certain. That the
refusal will convoy to the de facto Govern
ment officials finality of decision In this re
spect seemed also a certainty.
But the answer will be couched In such
term as to leave the Carranza Government
ample' opportuptty to "keep Itself right" be
fore, the' Mexican public. '
'.Completely peaceful conditions below tho
border, the note will state, must prevail
with some degree of certainty that whole
sale banditry and lawlessness, and raids on
the American side cannot recur.
. Private but apparently authentic advices
to the War Department from military of
ficials as well as consular and private ad
vices to the State Department, which re
count unrest and some antl-Amerlcan feel
ing, will be cited as explanation of the
necessity for continued presence of Amer
ican troops In Mexico.

Close LDaUS MorO Day!
John Ackerman, Who Often
Faced Death, Pensioned on
Fiftieth Birthday
After 22 years of continuous service with
the Philadelphia Flro Department, John
Ackermnn, of tho 6th street and Lehigh,
nvonue flrchouse, ''celebrated his BOth birth
day anniversary by retiring and going on
tho pension list. Ills friends In tho com
pany with which he last served are plan
ning a farowell reception for him Borne
time this week. N
With n record for fearlessness and strict
attention to duty, AckerVnan has formed
many cjoso friendships with tho fire-fighters
In every section of tho city. During
his long years of service he has had several
narrow escapes from death and has had
numerous minor accidents.
In the Spring Garden tunnel fire soveral
years' ago ho had his closest call. Here ho
was surrounded by flro In-tho underground
passago and was forced to run nlmost half
a block through tho seething sea of flames.
Again, nt the Nlcetown coal yards fire,
some years ago, ho was pulled down an
Ice-covered hill on his knees. Tho accident,
serious at the time, developed Into n weak
ness In his legs which nearly proved fatal
several times later at critical moments on
the ladders.
"I am glad that I have served my time,"
said Mr. Ackerman today. "I can spend
the rest of my days with n peaceful mind,
but I certainly will miss the boys."
Beginning his service In the Fire De'
partment with Company 23, he later was
connected with Truck No. 9, Engine Com
pany 32 and Engine Company 34. He
lives at 1911 Napa street with his wire
nnd two boys. John and William. Neither
son expects to follow hid father's life-work.

Improves your skin
while cleansing it
Almost any soap will cltan the
skin and linir. Many toilet soaps
are pure enough to do so without
injuring these delicate textures. But
those who want a soap which not
only cleanses but actually helps the
complexion and hair are wise to
choose Rcsinol Soap. '
The soothing, healing properties
of Rcsinol enable it to pivtect the
skin and scalp rom annoying erup
tions, keep the complexion clear,
and the hair rich nnd lustrous. This,
soaps which arc merely- pure and
cleansing cannot be expected to do.
When the iltln la In bad condition, through

since then. No industries have been more affected than the paper, print
ing and binding trades. The publishers therefore had to notify us that they
could not renew our contract
We wish we could havergone on selling this great work at these low
prices for years, for we believe that nothing which we could have of
fered to the public would give them more lasting value nor at a greater
bargain. This is impossible, and we therefore give you this timely notice.
