witnessed the killing of the Austins,

hve or six Of the Mexican bandits as
residents of the Sebastian community.

hrmed, would make certain that
Mexican residents on the Texas side
OF the Rio Grande are at least partly
responsible for recent outlawry charg-

Millard was forced by the Mexioans
to drive a cart in which Austin and
his son were taken from their fields

Agree with Wilson

Two days of conferences and hearing
reports have brought all the partici-
pants in accord with President Will
sons general plan, which is promised
on the fact that the great majority
of the people of Mexico desire peace.
which to be lasting must go beyond
consideration Of those who have fur
thered their plans through force of
arms. The conferees were impressed
that while armed forces are in posi-
ton to keep the country in s. state of
turmoil, they are only a small proper
ton Of the people of Mexico. While
all the participants are in sympathy
with the Presidents plan to induce the
military factions to enter another
peace conference and have signified
their willingness TO cooperate with 1t
to the fullest extent, the South Ameri-
cans are not sanguine of success, I'M
less some way can be found for elm
ination of the military leaders and
recognition of all classes in Mexico.
It is that there are questions of vast
moment, when considered in the light OF
Mexico, international obligations and the
responsibilities Of the nations which are
preparing 10 sponsor ner rehabll1tauon,
that cannot be determined in any brief
conferences, but must be the subject OF
deliberations. Foremost is the extent to
which the claims of the military chiefs
shall be considered and what concessions
between them can be arranged.
Plans Of Gen. Scott
One development which emphasized
that feature was the dispatch tonight
Of Major General Scott, chief of staff OF
the army. to the Mexican border to con-
fer with General Villa.
After a conference between General
Scott and Secretary Lansing and Act

Novogeorgievsk is situated at the
junction of the Vistula, Narew and
Rawka rivers to the northwest Of War
saw. It has two powerful bridgeheads,
eight citadels and "a redoubts; con-
tains II and 12-inch batteries. Military
observers here believe an army corps
can hold out there for many months.
Il the camp is protected by massive
earth works, which doubtless have
been enlarged and improved since the
Russians were compelled to begin their
retirement. The laying Of siege to
Novogeorgievsk may prove one Of the
most interesting operations Of the war,
as it doubtless will show whether
earthworks are less susceptible to the
fire of high explosives than are cupola
forts.
