GENERAL GOVERNMENTAL
WRANGLE OF PHILIPPINE OFFT- GERS CAUSES UNUSUAL ORDER.

Captain KoehIer and Major Scott Make
 Mutual Charges Which Lead to Or-
 ders for Thorough Investigation of
 Affairs in United States Army in the
 Islands-NOvember Set for Trials to
 Allow of Witnesses Getting There
 From this Side of the Pacific.
 Washington, July 2O.-A wrangIe be- tween two army officers in the Philip pines ending in mutual abuse was the reason for the issue by the acting sec- retary of war of an order to-day for the assembling of a general court-mar- tial on November 1 at Zamboango, in the Island of Mindanao. This rather unusual course was pursued because the officials here were not certain but that some officers higher in rank than the two principals first named might be drawn into the matter.
 From the order it appear, that Cap tain l.. M. Koehler, Fourth cavalry, is to be tried for using incorporate lan- guage toward his superior officers. At first it was charged that the captain abused Major Hugh L. Scott, his im- mediate superior. They preferred charges against each other, and General Wood found the major blameless, but court-martialed the captain. The court found him guilty and sentenced him to be reprimanded, The captain, in his indignation, declared that he had been treated unfairly, thereby refecting on General Wood and 1t was because the latter so requested that the depart- ment itself ordered this second court martial.
 The remote date fixed for the meeting of the court is explained by the neces- sity of sending witnesses in the United States to zamboango and other legal requirements.

 MoVement--Troops Preparing to auelI
 Disturbance When It Starts.
 El Paso, Tex, July 2O-Rafael YsabeL governor of Sonora, Mex. passed through Fl Paso to-day en route to Mexico City to consult with President Diaz and prepare for the threatened uprising in that country September ts. President Diaz is calling all his gov ernors into conference. Considerable trouble is feared in Sonora, as Cananea is located in that state and is said to be a revolutionary hotbed.
 The uprising" to which reference fs made is the proposed demonstration to be made against foreigners on septem- Der 16, the day of the independence fiesta in the various state capitals. The movement originated with the League of Mexican Railroad Employees and it's purpose is to drive out of the country foreigners who hold official positions in the railroads, mines and smelters. The government, it is said, will take prompt measures to quell any disorders.
 For some time past rumors have been rife in almost all the Arge cIfies in Mexico which may portend anything from a great strike of the laboring ele- ment to revolution against the ad- ministration of President Diaz.
 Circulars have been posted in Mon terey, saltillo, San Luis, Potosi and other large cities throughout the re- public, warning all foreigners to leave the country before September 16, the independence day of Mexico.
 The circular says in substance: w ANSAA 4hSAlCV LOT Ll0 RIGX1fATa, and warn all foreigners that if they do not leave the country by the 16th of September they will be driven into the sea-
 Continuing. the circular says: suThe principal industries and business of the republic are in the hands of foredgners. principally Americans. The railroads. although they apparently belong to the nation, are the exclusive property of Americans; the Americans direct them, The mining industry is largely control led by the foreign element and our ma tion, heretofore independent. is being made the servant of foreign capital.
 We are on the border of an ahyss and great catastrophe menaces us unless we force all foreigners out of the country and give our own people a chance"
 The Mexican government does not fear any serious trouble, notwithstand- ing the posting of these circulars. and will be fully able to cope with any con tingency which may arise.

 The Central American war, which bade fair to involve four or more re- publics in addition to the two originally concerned, Salvador and Guatemala, began in May with the departure of expeditions from Salvador to assist a Guatemalian revolution under the leadership of General Toledo. Engage ments with varying results were fought between the insurrectionary forces and those of the government of Guatemala until Salvador formally entered the conflict.
