Suddenly, straight out Of the flaming

TEXAS RANGER KILLED
Armed Force of Mexicans Crosses
Border to Attack Mercedes and
Meet Cavalry.

Brownsville, Tex, Aug. 17.-Armed
Eexicans in force crossed the Rio
Grande at ford near Mercedes, at
tacking an outpost of half a dozen
cavalrymen at Saenz.
Ranger Lieut. Reynau at Mercedes
telephoned state Adj. Gen. Hutchings
fere that Corporal William of Troop
o, Twelfth cavalry, was killed in this
fight and Lieut.. Roy o. Henry of the
same troop was wounded.
Reynau said he understood 270 Mex
leans had crossed and that they we're
coming to attack Mercedes.
Reports of renewed attempts by
Mexican bandits to reorganize their
bands in the lower Rio Grande valley
were brought here by j. ]. Sanders
captain of Texas rangers.
Rangers and peace officers ara dis
arming all Mexicans outside of the
larger towns throughout the Browns
vile section. Firearms discovered in
the possession of Mexicans in rural
communities of this section is practi
cally equivalent of a death warrant
unless that Mexican is well known to
Americans as being peaceful.
After an attack lasting all day Gen
Gales Carranza troops investing No
gales, Sonora, across the international
boundary line from here, halted foui
miles from the town
Mexican soldiers entered American
territory fifteen miles west of Nogales
and began slaughtering cattle, accord

ranch, on the border. Three automo
biles loaded with armed men started
for the scene soon after the report
arrived.

Belated reports from isolated com,

Thus far it has been impossible to
estimate the toll of death and prop
erty loss by shipwreck, although it is
known a number of vessels have
failed to reach the shore and their
wreckage already is strewn along the
beach.
There was an enormous loss to cot
ton growers in the storm belt, some
estimates stating that rs per cent OF
the crop of central Texas was de

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, Aug. 1.-THE State
Department made public the reply of
the United States, rejecting views set
forth by the Austro- Hungarian gov
ernment in a recent note contending
that expectation of war munitions
from America to Austria's enemies
was conducted on such scale as to
be not in consonance with the defi-
milton of neutrality
Though friendly in tone the note
fatty denies the Austro- Hungarian
contentious and recalls that that coun-
try and Germany furnished munitions
of war to Great Britain during the
Boer war, when England's enemies
could not import such supplies.
1t insisted that the American gov
eminent is pursuing a strictly neutral
course and adhering to principle
upon which it would depend for muni-
tions in the markets of the world in
case it should be attacked by a for
eign power.
Attention is directed to the fact that
Austria Hungary and Germany before
the war produced great surplus of
war munitions and sold them through
out the world especially to belliger-
ents" and that never during that
period did either of them suggest or
apply the principle now advocated by
the imperial and royal government"
Asserts adoption of Austria's plan
for embargo on munitions would
plunge all nations into militarism by
forcing them to assemble large sup
plies of war materials in time OF
