 The remnant of the Huerta army. which sought asylum in this country, rather than face possible extermin ation by the rebels. will be formally intern ed at Fort Bliss tomorrow as wards of the government. They are to be held there indefinitely. It will be the first time the American army has been called upon to shelter, feed and .clothe an entire division of a foreign army. which includes six disarmed generals
 None af those in the unusual cara van of Mexican soldiers women, chill more visib1y affected on getting with in sight of Maria than Gen. Salvador Mercado, Huerta.s former military chief. who ordered the evacuation of Ojinaga.
 Mercado was confessedly hlaaliliated, not only at the defeat of his army and the necessity for his flight to for eign soil, but also because of a report from Mexico City that he would be court rnartialed should he return to his native country.
 The picturesque march abounded with incident The birth of child, the deaths of several wounded sol diers, the search for water in the des- ert the constant struggling away from the line Of march and the rounding up again Of scores of the refugees, were some Of the difficulties with which the United States cavalry. commanded by Maj. McNanee, had to contend.
