Measures To Stop the

Brownsville, Texas, Oct Boiling
with rage over the continued banditry
along the Rio Grande, citizens of towns
hereabouts gathered today at Mayor
Browns call to discuss means of re.
lieving the situation. Brown himself
announced there would be no discussion
of reprisals, But, in the temper of the
citizens there was some doubt that he
or any one else, would be able to re-
strain such efforts.
1t was true that dispatch of add.

Congressman Garner's visit to Wash

yet the fresh killings of the past week
made it likely that, unless strong meas

moment.
Two supposed raiders were slain by
cavalry detachment last night while
trying to cross the Rio Grande. Theli

Washington, Oct. GA dragnet of
American troops and special secret
agents was thrown out along the Rio
Grande border today in search for
leaders of recent disastrous raids by
Mexicans, which have cost many
American lives.
Drastic Measures Ordered.
President Wilson himself personally
directed the efforts to check the raid
ers, and he authorized Secretary of War
Garrison and Attorney General Greg
ory to resort to drastic measures to halt
the marauding which has grown in
volume since the United States recog-
nized General Carranza as chief execu!
tive of the factional government Of
Mexico.
American influences were believed to
be responsible for the circulation of
wild rumors Of border conspiracies.
General Villa was reported instigating
attacks ON American troops in reprisal
for recognition Of his enemy and in the
hope of forcing American Intervention
in Mexico. Still another rumor said
Villa had secured new American finan-
cial backing. General Felix Diaz too,
was rumored to be fomenting new
revolution with the aid Of General
zapata, Villas ally.
Even more Amsrican reinforeements
are contemplated for the Brownsville
district.
