Washington, Oct 14.-Following a
conference with the president, Secre-
tary of War Garrison sent Gov. Hunt
Of Arizona vigorous request that he
refrain from sending militia to the
Mexican border.
The secretary pointed out that such
move might precipitate war between
this country and Mexico.
A dispatch from Gov. Hunt stated
that a critical situation, similar to that
at Naco, existed at Douglas, where two
Americans had been wounded by shots
fired across the border. He said all
the available militia was being mob
ilized.
Secretary Garrison replied, saying
that there was no need for additional
troops on the border. Fourteen troops
OF cavalry are at Naco and four troops
at Douglas
