' iliinisbuis, Penna, H A RRISBURG SfSSgSfe TELEGRAPH CARRANZA MUST GIVE PROOF OF POWER [Continued From First Page.] partment to-day to obtain more defi nite information of the disposition of Carranza troops in Chihuahua. It was said that the tone of Carranza's note prompted the action of military offi cials without regard to the diploniatic phases of the situation. To Outline Situation | General Funs ton has been asked to outline clearly the situation in Chlhua- I hua according to his most recent ln formation of the whereabouts of Car ranza detachments. No anxiety is felt . for the safety of General Pershing's columns, but in view of the statements in General Carranza's note it is de- I sired to know as accurately as possible what the movements of his forces are. t It was explained at the War Depart ment that the real mission of the ex | peditlon at this time was to prevent attacks upon the wide sections of the i border controlled by its position in Mexico. As a question of military strategy it is considered that only a force disposed as are General Per shing's troops could accomplish that. Raids Now Impossible A large border garrison or patrol, it was pointed out, might repel an attack but could not make it impossible. With General Pershing's forces ready to break up any attempt by bandits to assemble a force for a surprise at tack on an American border town offi cials feel that renewal of raiding within the none controlled by his forces is virtually impossible. Cavalry patrols are active through the territory on both sides of General Pershing's base and his line of com munications and war department offi cials hold that a condition of complete security is being maintained in tills region and along the border, despite the allegations of the Carranza note that the expedition is "interned in Chi huahua State" lying idle and with no military object, its position constitut ing a continued menace to the peace of the two countries. No additional troop movements were In contemplation so far as known. Situation Not. Seiious There was no indication at the State Department that the develop ments had produced an urgent situa tion. A reply may not be made for a week or ten days. Various inaccur ate statements it makes will be pointed out. References to the effect of Am erican domestic politics upon the bor der situation, the suggestion that all Latin-America is waiting to see what the United States will wo to maintain its protestations of friendship and the reference to American trade in war munitions with Europe probably will be wholly ignored, although it is un derstood they would have brought a sharp rebuke if any less perplexed and disordered government had taken such a course. The reply probably will point out that Major Langhorne's detachment penetrated nearly 200 miles into Mexi co in pursuit of the Boquillas raiders, without encountering one Carranza soldier. Gen. Pershing Will Confer With Gavira Late Today Colonia Dublan, Mex., June 1. Every preparation has been made for the proposed conference on military co-operation between Gabriel Gavira Carranza commander of Northern Chi huahua and General Pershing. It is believed the informal talks will begin late to-day. General Pershing declined to make any comment on the conference. Np place for the meeting has been chosen, although General Pershing to-day re ceived a Carranza captain, who called to inform him of General Gavira's ar rival and suggest the station at Neuvo Grandes as the place for the meeting. General Pershing made the trip by motor from field headquarters near Namlqulpa, accompanied by Lieuten ant-Colonel Cabell, his chief of staff, his personal aid, a stenographer and interpreter and a small guard. on permanent organization will be called for.
