Should the Troops Of the Lion

They win Be Treated as Band
lis and Returned TO Mexico.
CARRANZA TROOPS CAN
CROSS WITH IMMUNITY
Funston Has Orders Under Which
He Can Level Artillery at the
Attackers of Aqua Prieta, in
Case Of Danger to Douglas.

WASHINGTON, oct 27.-Should
the Villa troops cross the border and
attack the Mexican town Of Aqua
Prieta from the American side, as
press reports have indicated they
might do, they viii be treated as out
laws and disarmed I'm the event re-
sistance is shown they viii be shot
down by the United States troops ac-
cording to officials of the States and
War Departments made this clear to-
might although no official advices
were received that such development
is in prospect.
Major General Funston has full
authority 20 take any necessary steps
TO prevent q violation of American
territory by Mexican armed parties,
short of actually invading Mexico. The
order to cross it is believed would
come from Washington, but if bullets
fam on the American side during any
battle. Funston may use the artillery
TO drive the combatants away. I'm the
event of a battle at Aqua Prieta in
which Funston found it necessary 80
use his guns to protect American
lives and property, it is said they will
undoubtedly, be trained on the forces
of Villa who will be considered as
outlaws. and not the Carranza forces.
With the recognition Of the Carran-
"a regime as the de facto government
of Mexico the border situation has
somewhat changed. Should armed
men. IN revolt against that govern
ment. cross the line they will be con-
sidered, officials allege, as merely out
laws. 10 be placed in custody and sur
rendered to the Carranza forces on
the proper application for eNtradition.
should the Carranza forces be de-
feated and forced to fee across to the
American side, they will be disarmed
but permitted to return to Mexico AT
some other point on the border where
their arms will be returned to them.
The United States does not recognize
that a state of belligerency against the
Carranza government exists, and there
will be no question of internment.
Intmations reached Washington
that Governor Ferguson Of Texas
might decide to ask the President for
a wide use of federal troops near
Brownsville where bandits raids are
frequent. Some officials suggested il
IS believed he might himself declare
martial law within the restricted
zone and ask the aid Of the federal
government in rounding up the band
it's and outlaws therein.
