BROWNSVILLE, Texas, September
lO.-Despite the agreement of Carranza
authorities to remove their troops
from the Texas border, a large body OF
the First Chief men have entrenched
themselves at PrOgresso Crossing, thlr,
ty miles above here.
They have not fred on American
troops, but word comes from their
camp to commanders of the United
States troops that they "reserve the
right to fire if any Texas rangers, dep,
uty sheriffs or civilians appear on the
American side of the Rio Grande.
Regardless of what weight this threat
may carry, active troop movements
are under way on the American side
and in view of recent statements from
Washington there is a likelihood OF
trouble as it is the intention of the
border troops TO resist fire and II any
attack in force is made on American
territory to pursue the Mexicans ou
their own soil.
Torreon now appears to be the OBJ
iective of General Carranza with hts
army to the south. Americans arriv
ing from SaltillO say a CarranZa army
is mobilizing there. Tt is reported tina,
