S. to Be Determined by De Facto Chief's Final Statement Rather Than on Carri zal Battle Mt. Gretna. Pa.. June 26.—Mexico looms upon the immediate horizon for Philadelphia First Brigade. The honor of being the first Pennsylvania troops to be sent to the Mexican border in re sponse to President Wilson's call has fallen to General W. G. Price's brigade of infantry, to field hospital N'o. 2, of Philadelphia: company B. engineer battalion, of Philadelphia, together with company A, engineers battalion, from Scranton, and the field battalion of signal troops from Pittsburgh. Orders for these commands are to entrain "at once" for a des tination which has not as yet been made public. General Price was utterly inaccessable for the time being be cause of pressure of military business, but it was manifested from his manner that he was intensely proud of the tribute paid his brigade. Every man who could by hook or crook get leave from another command long enough to do so, made his way to the lines of the First brigade and the other troops named to congratulate them. The engineers formed their companies and paraded about their company street cheering and singing. At almost the same time the "marching orders" were received came word that twenty-four carloads of ammunition were on their way here from the Allegheny arsenal at Pitsburgh, and probably will arrive to-night. The railroads are hard at work assembling the troop trains which will carry the -men and their baggage and equipment, the quartermaster corps is bending efforts to assemble the great volumes of equipage necessary and to prepare the im mense quantity of travel rations which will be'necessary to the sub sistence of the troops enroute. By Associated Press \\ ashington, June 26. —\\ hether a state of war shall exist be tween the United States and the de facto government of Mexico depends upon the formal declaration of policy by General Carranza expected hourly to-day in response to the note telegraphed to Mexico City yesterday by Secretary Lansing. The American government will insist upon the immediate re lease of the cavalrymen captured at Carrizal. as demanded in the note, but high officials of the administration explain in interpreting the communication that the course of the United States will be de termined By Carranza's final statement of his intentions toward the American expedition in Mexico to protect the border, rather than on the specific circumstances of the Carrizal incident. Await Captain Morey's Report The War Department had not re ceived at an early hour the letter from Captain Lewis 8. Morey, of the Tenth cavalry, giving the first official Ameri can version of the fighting at Carrizal. It had been advised, however, that Morey was safe at one of General Pershing's camps and a complete re port on the afTair was expected promptly. The published text of Captain Morey's letter was construed as indi cating that the American force was to some extent responsible for the clash.

Until a few | days ago it had been years since a special trainload of Lancaster countv. grown tobacco has left this city. The train, over the Reading Railway, con sisted of forty-three cars, and contained 2,000 cases of 1909 tobacco. Its desti nation is France and Belgium, and It had been bought at prices ranging from 11 hi to 12>4 cents a pound. Within the last six weeks a single New York firm has purchased 3.600 cases of the 1909 packing. This is the tobacco that has proved so costly to i manv Lancaster packers, because of the attitude of packers before It was cut. j and later, while curing, in order to keep down the price. The crop not only went begging for years, but the prices were ruinously low. When agents of foreign Governments began buying It six months ago. It be- j Ing the only cheap tobacco to be had, it was selling as low as « and 7 cents | a pound, and fullv 25.000 rases wer» for sale The demand has sent the prices up to 12, 13 and 14 cents a pound. i 101 "ROOKIES" LEAVE TODAY TO JOIN COMRADES Recruits of Companies D and and I and Governor's Troop Entrain For Gretna DRUM GOES RAT-A-TAT Big Crowd Bids Farewell to Newly Enlisted Men at P.
