TMCRTRAPPED
CAVALRY, SAYS
GEN. PERSHING
Mexicans Advanced in Bat
tle Line During Parley,
Report Asserts
"ITALIAN BRIGADE" OF THE THIRD REGI MENT, N. G. P., ON THE WAY TO THE AR MORY
TROOPER TELLS OP FIGHT
BAN ANTONIO. Juno M.Whlls tha en
tiro border anxiously awaited new of fur
ther flghtlnr in Mexico, the details of
General Pershing's first offlclnl report to
Oerieral Funston on the Cnrrlanl conflict
magnified the first vague story of Mexi
can treachery that reached the border and
Indicated clearly that the methods of
Indian warfare were responsible for tho
ambush of the Americans.
Tho official report showed how tho blade
troopers of, tho 10th Cavalry, trnppcd and
almost helpless, fought for five hours
against overwhelming numbers before they
retreated to the nearby hills. From there
the shattered force, carrying Its wounded,
began to make Its way slowly back to
the baso at Colonla Dublan,
American officers hero had predicted that
tho tone of General Pershing's report would
determlno whether a. now expedition should
start Into Mexico through Juarez. After
reading tho report they asserted that noth
ing could now stop this contemplated
march.
"This can mean nothing but war," said
ens of tho highest officials at El Paso. "It
indicates beyond all doubts that tho Mex
icans are boldly defying President "Wilson.
In view of tho attitude taken by the Presi
dent In his latest note, I believe that within
a few days will come word to advance and
a declaration of war."
TIIOOPEH'S STORY OF THE FIGHT.
General Pershing's first report was
based on tho Information brought him by
four troopers who were present nt the Car
rlzal fight. Mounted on the only horses loft,
tho llttlo command was sent at a killing
pace to tako word to headquarters and at
tempt to got relief. Hero Is tho story told
by their spokesman :
"Wo had been marching Blnce early Wed
nesday morning -when we reached tho neigh
borhood of Carrlzal. Captain Charles T.
,Boyd was riding ahead or the column. Just
behind him was Captain Lewis S. Morey:
Lieutenant Henry It. Adair was further
back with tho column. There wore GB men
In the troop.
"From our position wo could see some
Mexican soldiers In tho village. Captain
Boyd sent forward a messenger under a
flag1 of truce to ask permission to enter
the town In search of the bandits that we
were hunting. General Felix Gomez sent
back word Riving permission to enter.
Gomez himself rodo out to meet Captain
Boyd. Captain Boyd gavo tho word for
the column to advance. "We wero lUBt
starting forward when wo noticed Mexican
troops pouring out from behind different
kinds of shelter adobo houses and the
like nnd doploylng to tho right nnd left.
IN BATTLE FOHMATION.
"It was battle formation. From the first
glance we saw that they outnumbered us nt
least five to one.
"Captain Doyd noticed their movements.
To nny soldier that sort of thing can mean
only that an attack Is about to begin. I
saw Captain Boyd motion to tho Mexicans
and make aomo remark about It to Gomez.
Gomez wheeled his mount around and
signaled with his hands. Then he made
a daBh for his own lines.
"I saw, Captain Boyd fall. A moment
later Captain Morey was wounded In the
ohoulder.
"Lieutenant Adair gave us tho order to
dismounts We got aut of our saddles In a
hurry. Then he told us to throw ourselves
on our faces and roturn the fire. Some ono
got Gomez just as ho was reaching his line.
The next minute Lieutenant Adair was hit.
Both he and Captain Boyd are dead, I
believe.
"Tho machine-guns were still going. I
could hear tho bullets whistling over us.
"Because of Lieutenant Adair's orders we
saved a lot of men But the horses did not
havo the same luck. Tho bullets started
to hit them and they wero going down as
If their legs were suddenly cut out from
under them. The others, stung by tho bul
lets nnd kicked by the dying horses, began
to rear and plunge. Tho men In charge
tried their best to hold them, but they
broke awny Some of tho men were killed
trying to save the mounts.
"When tho horses got nway we were
marooned. We fought back and pre
vented the Mexicans from advancing In
plto of their advantage In numbers and
tho machine guns. We began to fall back
toward the bills as well as we could.
"Wo recovered four horses, and then
tho four of us wero oent hero to report.
We left tho rest of the troops in tho hills.
Tho retreat was slow because of tho
wounded. Tho Mexicans kept following
and firing, but wero kept away by tho
accurate rine nre or our men."

They think that outside of Mexico City

U. S. TROOPS, IN RESCUE DASH, CLASH
WITH CARRANZISTA FORCE, IS REPORT
EL TASO, Juno 23. Tloporta of a second
battle between Amerlcnn and Mexican
troops near Carrlzal were received here
today. They lacked confirmation from any
ofllclnl source.
Gcnoral Pershing Is known to have sent
two squadrons of tho 11th Cavalry to the
relief of the negro troopers of the 10 th who
wore attacked on Wednesday, nnd It was
considered probable that these reinforce
ments had already come In contact with the
Carranzistas
Between 6000 tnd 7000 Carrnnza troops
aro concentrated In the Carrlzal dis
trict, and border observers declared that
General Jacinto Trevlno's announcement
that his troops would continue to nttack
American soldiers moving through tho coun
try meant that the warfare opened by tho
Carrlzal ambush would continue.
It Is known that both tho Amerlcnn and
Carrnnza commanders expected a battle to
bo fought nt Villa Ahumada
The Mexicans nro preparing to contest
tho march from Juarez to Chihuahua City
tho movement thnt would be the ccntro of
an offensive.
For this reason, American olllccrs view
with suspicion tho ovacuatlon of Juarez
by tho majority of the Carranzlstns. They
suspect that somewhere In tho hills back
of Juarez the forcen that left nro being
placed where they can best harass an
Amerlcnn advance. It was even reported
today that ono body of Carranzistas had
been sighted less than two miles from Ju
arez. Tho hills back of Juarez make nn
offensive screen for such operations
The advantage of an nreoplane In learn
ing the disposition of theso troops Is obvious.
But there aro no arcoplanes at El Paso or
Fort Bliss.
The tactical strength of tho Mexican
movement was commented on by Amerlcnn
officers while watching the movements of
the troops through field glasses high on the
hills on tho American side. From their
position back of the hills the Mexicans
would bo out of range of the artillery
that might be used to bombard Juarez.
From there they would support the small
body now left In Juarez proper and cover
tho retreat that would follow such a bom
bardment. Ono well-directed shot could put tho
Mexican Ilallvvny system out of operation.
Tho move to tho south keeps this commu
nicating lino open.
Fresh reports from nil parts of the bor
der indlcato that tho Mexicans aro obtain
ing recruits by hundreds and nrmlng them
for battle.
Ono icport snld that Francisco Villa was
xalslng a new army to light under the Car
ranza banner, but this received llttlo
credence In military circles here.
Juarez Itself Is sullenly quiet. Americans
who go to the Mexican end of tho Interna
tional Bridge must go prepared to swallow
insults or encounter tho Cnrranza holdlery.
It was necessary to call on the consular
service to rescue an American newspaper
man who was taken prisoner there lato jes
terday. Tho 4.7-Inch guns on tho American sldo
still menace tho llttlo Mexican city. Gen
eral Gonzales and a comparative handful
of men nio still believed to be In Juarez,
General Bell, at Fort Bliss, Is said to
havo Information thnt a considerable Car
ranza force Is hidden in the hills around
tho city. Tho troops that evacuated tho
city aro reported to have concentrated 22
miles south of Juarez with other Carranza
forces.
Tho fate of Captain Lewis G. Morey's
cnvalry detachment, which was In tho Cnr
rlzat fight, caused considerable uneasiness.
Nothing has been heard from Morey's
men since they were lured Into nmhush
Wednesday and cut up by marhlne-gun fire.
Genornl Pershing has arranged to rein
force tho relief column If It Is attacked
by tho vastly superior number of Cnr
ranzlstas In the Carrlzal district
Tho absenco of any aeroplanes with tho
Amerlcnn expedition In Mexico was tho
basis of considerable criticism hero today.
Aviators In swift flying mnchlnes could
havo learned the truth about the Carrlzal
situation almost Immediately. All aero
planes Intended for scouting with Pershing
are dismantled at tho Columbus base under
going repairs.
MEXICAN MERCHANTS STILL HOPE
WAR WITH U. S. WILL BE AVERTED
MEXICO CITY. June 23. Although
armed conflict with the United states Is
considered Imminent, many of tho Mexican
people still hope for a settlement of the
controversy by diplomatic negotiations.
Thursday was observed as a holiday In
the capital, being the religious festival of
Corpus Chrlstl. Business was suspended
generally. The streets and parks wero
crowded. Tho people tatkt-d of nothing
but the prospects of war with the United
States.
Mexico City business men Interviewed ex
pressed disbelief that the United States
would risk destroying her friendly rela
tions with Latin-American countries, after
laboring so hard to establish them, by con
flict with Mexico. They bellevo tho Amer
ican Government believes that the Invnslon
of Mexico would arouse hostilities ngalnst
the United States throughout Central nnd
South America, endangering, if not ruining,
tho trnde relations of American merchants
and manufacturers.
The proclamation Issued by Wnr Minister
Obregon, calling upon nil who havo been
In arms against the Government to aban
don that attltudo and Join tho Carranza
forces In case of wnr with tho United
States, Is expected to bring general re
sponse. Thoso who have been declared outlaws
by Carranza are excluded from tho call.
Those who do not accept the call will bo
considered outlaws. Obregon called atten
tion to the fact that opposition leaders In
tho States of Coahulla, Chihuahua, Durango,
Zacatccas and elsewhere already have rec
ognized the Constitutionalist Government,
thus setting tho example for others.

Minister Sazonoff was asked about com
mercial relations between Russia and the
United States.
"I see no real obstacle In the way of the
closest commercial relations between Bus
sla and America," he replied. 'The Idea
has my hearty support. I quite share your
blo Ambassador's expressed views on the
subject. To like each other better we need
only to get better acquainted,"
Discussing the Polish situation, the For

unfortunate people of invaded Poland.
'The population there la sadly treated by
the enemy." he added, "They continue to

was asked.

replied 'Officers and men are thoroughly

PERSHING'S REPORT RECEIVED;
CAPITAL AWAITS MORE FACTS
WASHINGTON, June 23. A report from
General Pershing containing the story of
the Carrlzal fight between, Americans und
Carranzistas, based solely on Information
of returning 10th Calvnlrymen, was In the
War Department's hands today.
Its contents wero characterized as con
firming press reports of tho cavalrymen's
story In most particulars, but olllclals
said they could not rely entirely upon It as
proving that the attack was unprovoked,
with the Mexicans entirely the aggressors.
The War Department la awaiting further
detailed Information.
Secretary Baker declined to mako publlo
the text of Pershing's message, on the
ground that It was not official Information,
and because both he and Pershing regard
It ns "In tho rumor" class Incidentally,
the Secretary has decided to put the lid on
Information which Is not strictly official.
This Government unquestionably will
make demands upon Carranza for release
of American prisoners taken In the Car
rlzal battle, as soon as It is definitely es
tablished how many were captured. It was
officially stated today.
The returning cavalrymen -are under
stood to have t6ld Pershing that the Mex
icans were at fault In the trouble.
Army men generally said today they did
not believe the Carrlzal Incident by Itself
would provoke war; they expressed them
selves, however, as believing war could pot
be avoided ultimately.
Following a 15-mlnute conference with
President Wilson today at the White
House, Secretary of War Baker said no
change In policy regarding Mexico Is con
templated. The Administration, he said,
"Is still awaiting Information on tho Car
rlzal Incident."
Official statement -was made that at no
time has the President discussed with any
department official the subject of cnlllng
for volunteers.
The Administration position up to early
today tended to class the Carrlzal Incident
with the now-forgotten Parral clash and
the more recent unprovoked attack upon
American sailors at Mazatlan,
One source of real trouble In tho Carrlzal
affair, apparently still remaining. Is the fact
that American prisoners are still held In
Mexican custody.
As for Carranza himself. Administration
men have some reason to believe he Is try
ing to keep his men In line nnd avoid hos
tilities. On the other hand, the attitude of
his generals la manifestly unpleasant. Gen
eral Trevlno's reported approval of the Car
rlzal clash and his announcement that he
would take similar action In tho same cir
cumstances was regarded here as Indicative
of a threatening trend of events, perhaps
beyond Carranza's control.
Mexico City Is comparatively calm as far
as State Department reports show. The
American "gravest consequences" note due
for publication there may provoke strong
antl-Amerlcan outbursts.
The State Department, memorandum to
Pan-American countries, regarding the
United States' Intentions in Mexico, was
generally'Jnferpreted herq as showing that
the Administration will go the limit of honor
In avoiding war,

VERA CRUZ. Mex.. June 2J. Arrival of
hundreds of American refugees here today,
fleeing before war clouds, failed to bring
any unusual excitement, to Mexico's prin
cipal seaport. The native residents are op
timistic. The refugees unite In declaring
the crowds which greeted them at the rail
road stations on their trip here were fairly
courteous.
Out In the harbor today the United States
warship Nebraska was riding peacefully at
anchor, with nearly 200 American citizen
aboard. The Nebraska's officers have en
deared themselves to the refugee by their
hnsnltalltv but they are mighty airxlous
for the nrrival of a transport which will re

WASHINGTON, Juno 23. Threat of a" '
with Mexico was seen In tho action of
Chalrmnn Hay, of tho House Military cy.
uueu, who, upon mo convening of toda--.
season, sought to have the responsible,
of drafting tho National Guard into '
federal Bervlco placed upon ConKresji 5.
not entirely within the discretion of ik. ,
Amendment to his previous resolute
was offered to show that Congress bcll2 '
that llio "emergency existed" whereby uu
of other than the regular United statH
Army was warranted. rtl"
Tho original draft of the Hay resolute
read that "whenever In his opinion T,
omergency exists which demands the ..
of troops in addition to tho regular !
of the L'nltod States, tho tr..?JVm.lr '

BUTLHIl SKI3KS REASONS.
"I am ready to voto for this resolution,
but I want an assurance from President
AVIlson that nn emergency exists," said Rep
rcscntatlvo Butler, of Pennsylvania. ,"I -
know this means destruction of property '
nnd life nnd war for years to come."
"Why doesn't tho President present hl
reasons?" nsked Mr. Butler. "Tho passage
of thlM resolution menns tho destruction
of property, of hutnnn llfo nnd probably
war for years to come. Thero ought to be .
something In tho record to Justify this act
other than tho nhsuranco of tho chairman .
of tho Military Affairs Committee that he' .
has learned through tho Secretary of 'yar ,
that tho President desires this congressional .
action."
"Is It not truo?" asked Representative .
J Hampton Moore, of Pennsylvania, "that
when tho Cuban troublo was on President '
McKlnley sent to CongroB3 his reasons fof1
desiring a similar action?" '
"I was In Congress then." said Repre- '
sentatlvo Butler. "The President submitted '
four reasons for Ills request That Is as
familiar to mo as the Lord's Prayer Is to a
Sai'nt."
