 Mr. Carrothers learned that Gus taVe Bauch. the German American be- ing tried by the rebels as a spy, still is safe at Chihuahua and received re- neWed assurances that he could not be executed unless found guilty. BauCh is said to have given the only damag- ing testimony against himself Rebel friends testified to his apparent harmlessness. Bauch told the military court that when he had been running an engine for the federals between Ciudad Porf1rio Diaz and Ronc1Ova he carried a pass from the federal gov ernment and had many friends among the Huertstas.
 Why did you come to Juarez? he was asked
 "Oh, just for pleasure" he is quoted as replying.
 His rebel friends confirmed this re- ply and declared their opinion that he was harmless
 No word was received as to when the fifteen rejected American soldiers will be returned from Chihuahua. It is hoped that, among them will be found at least some of the foreigners reported missing. Henry Compton, Roger Laurence and a man named Curtis.

yourselves? We reply, most assured

not turn America into a military
camp. We will not ask our young
men to spend the best years of their

make itself effective should occasion
arise. And especially when half the

Let US remind ourselves, therefore.
Of the only thing we can do or will

the past, not upon a standing army.
nor yet upon a reserve army, but upon
