FL Paso, Tex, May 15.-American
soldiers at Fort Bliss are engaged
more in preventing Mexicans from be-
coming prisoners than in OBTAINING the
200 odd federal soldiers already held
at the Texas army post. A report that
many of the Mexican soldiers had es-
capped today led to count which
showed that there were six more pris-
oners than originally transported here
from Naco, Ariz.
The recent altering Of the prisoners
mess from meats and potatoes to black
beans is credited with the popularity
Of detention. The soldiers who SO
long defended. Naco. Sonora, ars
housed in comfortable walled tents
formerly used by the United States
infantry. The cost of their keep has
been much reduced by their prefer
ence for beans and pancakes over the
food supplied the American soldiers.

specified no disposition of the prison
sers who We're detained when the in
.surgents finally drove them over the
