de Clairmont. agent of President
Diaz. commissioned to purchase the
formula or an explosive in san Fran
cisco. Two shots were fired at Clair
mont as he was entering his houss.
He returned the fire, but the would

De Clairmont stated that In addi-
ton to being special agent for Prasi-

weeks ago, his mission being, he said,
to purchase the formula for new ex-

MEXICO CITY HAS ONLY
MEAGER REPORT OF BATTLE.

Mexico City, April 14.--Neither the
war department nor the department
of foreiCA relations received any but
the mosi meager reports regarding
the battle at Aqua Prieta today.
The reports to the foreign office
We're sent by the Mexican consul in
Douglas, but were so unsatisfactory in
their character and so brief that Min.
lister de la Barra instructed him to
ampllfy them and also instructed the
consul at Nacc to go to Douglas to
assist the consul there In his investi-
cation.
The account of the battle received
by the war department was nothing
more than the information that the
town had been attacked by a superior
number Of rebels and that the federals
after making all resistance possible.
had surrendered.
No representation has yet been
made by the state department in
Washington to the foreign office con-
cerning the firing across the interna.
tional boundary and the resultant loss
OF life. That such representation may
be made is not considered improbable.
but Il is likely that the Mexican gov
ernment will protest regarding the
part played in the battle by Captain
Gaujot who crossed the boundary
thus, technically, invading Mexico.
Minister de La Barra conferred with
both President Dias and War Minister
Coscio regarding the battle on the
border and tonight in official circles
no great concern is evidenced in the
incident as relates to the progress of
the war; but 1t has great interest.
however, in view of the international
complications which may grow out OF
It,
Military men regard the taking Of
Aqua Priata as rebel mistake. By
them 1t is pointed out that RED
Lopez and his men have placed the
insurreefes In a aredieament. TO
hold the town 1t will be necessary for
him TO receive. the support of the
ma5er portion Of Madero's army ana
Il is not believed that the chief Of
the revolutionists deems ii advisable
to tie up any considerable number Of
his men.
On the other hand. it is pointed
out that the government will not pas
sively permit the occupation OF the
town by the rebels. Already one
force Is approaching Aqua Prleta aud
unless Lopez is able to get reinforce-
ments he must either abandon the
place or resist odds which the war
department believes will be over
whelming.
1t is believed here the taking Of
Aqua Prieta viii have the effect Of
stimulating the energies of the rebels
| and that 1t will gain for Madero hun
dreds ard perhaps thousands of re-
cruits, even should he be forced to
! abandon the place.
While international complications
growing out of yesterdays battle are
possible, Minister de La Barra today
stated that the controversy between
the United States and Mexico over
the Blatt-Converse incident is in a
fair way 70 be amicably adjusted.
Today he sent to the United states
ambassador for transmission to the
American state department a note
concerning the two United States
citizens in which he made representa-
tions which he believed would be ac-
ceptcd by the United States govern
ment.
