MEXICo CITY, Mexico. Dec s.-Ihe
latest reports from the Guatemala
frontier are of II more serious character
than any which have before reached
the capital. II is claimed that the
Guatemalans have assassinated 81
Mexican colonel. member of the sta n
of Gen l.ulanc. and from unofficial
socurccs il is reported that company
of the Nineteenth Battalion of the
Mexican forces has had two engage
mcnts with u force of 400 Guatemalan
gucrrclas. The first assault on the
Mexican troops WAS harmless Skin
mish, but the second resulted in two
Mexican soldiers being killed.
The Guatcmalans retreatcd hastily.
and it is not known that they suf-
fered any material damage. This
particular body of mounted Guatema-
lans is reported as still lowering about
the vicinity of the Mexican troops, but
il is believed that after making the az
tack they retired to the Guatemalan
side of the international line. Should
official information confirm these re-.
ports. it is highly probable the Mexi-
can government will nj once demand
reparation in n satisfactory manner for
the outrage.
