' Replies to the First Chief's Note.
The conciliatory reply of the Unite
States to Carranza’s Igst note had not
had time to reach the Mexican: em:
bassy Friday before the first. move in
a campaign of co-operation against
bandits threatening the American bor-
der was suggested by the de facto gov-
ernment of Mexico. :
Carranza, through Ambassador Des-
ignate Arredondo, notified the state
department that a de facto govern-
ment force had been destroyed by a
large band of Villg followers at Car-
Carranza expresged the fear that this
band had proceéded northward through
the desert and might concentrate near
the border for a raid into United
States territory. He suggested that
the American troops on the berder ex-
ercise particular vigilance in the
stretch of border line between Boquil-
las and Ojinaga and promised that
meanwhile every effort would be fhade
by his own forces to pursue and cap-
ture the bandits. :
The dispatch containing the warn-
ing was at once turfied over to Secre-
tary of War Baker by the state de-
partment and telegraphed to General
Funston. The means for dealing with
the threatened raid will be decided
upon at General Funston’s headquar-
ters and officials here expressed the
belief that the Villa band will meet
with a warm receptiom if it attempts
to cross the Hne. 2 : +

| Secretary of Agriculture Patton
has received replies from farmers
in 43 counties to the offer of the De-
partment of Agriculture to place sheep
on farms for the purpose of stimulat-

cannot be given more than ten ewos,
the number to be allotted to each

reperts on the conditions and to give
half the lambs raised. About 2000
