UNDER CLOSE GUARD
Orozco's Men Will Join with
General Carranza's
Forces

Galveston, Tex, Sept. 3.--All towns anc
ranches along the Mexican border are
up in arms awaiting what they believe
will be a general invasion by Mexicans
on Monday. Mercedes, Harlinger, De-
Rio and score Of smaller towns are
closely guarded by armed citizens and
soldiers. Ranches all over the border
section are guarded by cowboys and
rangers heavily armed. Several suspi-
cious Mexicans have been arrested in the
border country, but it is believed that
only one Mexican was killed. AT various
points along the Rio Grande bands of
armed Mexicans have been seen. They
were mounted and were galloping along
as if looking for orders to cross into
Texas. Peace officers and citizens along
the border sent an appeal for more sol
diers and rangers. They assert that
trouble is sure. 0rozco's followers are
to join Carranza's army against all com,
ers, according TO reliable information
from the Rio Grande country.
Washington, Sept. 3.-State depart
ment dispatches yesterday reported a
revolt of Carranza garrisons at Frontera

and some other officials escaped to Vera
Cruz.

NO LEGISLATION
FOR AVIATORS
Who May Come Down in Neutral Ter.
ritory During War--Many Foreign
Aviators are Coming Down in
Netherlands Jurisdiction.

The Hague, Sept. 3s-The large mum.
Der Of foreign aviators who day by day
lcome tumbling out Of cloudy sky into
the territory of the Netherlands have
drawn attention TO the absolute lack OF
Legislation regarding shipwreeked ayia-
tors.
international law and the law OF vari-
Gus nations have regulated the rights
of foreign men of war who are forced
to seek temporary refuge into q neu-
trail port. The foreign warships may re-
pair the damages it has suffered and it
may take on board sufficient coal to sail
TO the next home port. Ii German
cruiser should suddenly arrive in a
Dutch harbor she would be given coal
| enough to reach Emden, the nearest
German port. A British ship woruld be
sent to Harwieh. All this is generally
understood as an esta blished rule of
war. But when foreign aviator, through
lack of gasolene is obliged TO land upon
neutral territory he is informed for the
rest of the war. Apparently he does
rot come under the class of the warship,
for in that case he would obtain few
cans of oil and would be given a chance
to fly home. In the same way, If the
flying machines were given equal rights
with the warships, a broken machine
might stay upon neutral ground in or
der to get repaired before it once more
took to the open sky. In times to come
all this may be regulated, but at the
present time number of aviators walk
around in Dutch and Danish and Swiss
&c. tbas.. .f
rule which TO them seems entirely un-
fair.
When an aviator lands in the sea and
is picked up by neutral fishing or mer
liant vessel he may 90 home freely. If, |
however, he is picked up by a torpedo |
boat OF neutral nation, that neutral
nation is obliged 20 intern their involun-
tary gust This rule. however only /
counts for aviators. Shipwrecked ma
rines seem TO go free no matter who
saved them. But the aviator who is
iished out of his wrecked machine by an
official vessel belonging 10 a neutral ma
W losses his liberty for the rest of the
war while he would be allowed TO go
home il he had waited few minutes
onger for fishing sloop.
A rather complicated question arises.
when an aviator just before he is APP
preached by a naval launch dives from
MS machine and claims his right TO lib
,rty as a distressed mariner" Unfor-
a ride Of several hours upon
he choppy waves of the North sea sit
ing on the wings of a disabled flying
machine seem to produce a state Of alb.
eet sea sickness And the aviators who
night have awaited themselves OF the
echnical rights Of their case as dds.
ressed mariners were usually in such
n advanced state Of seasick indifference
bat they cared not what happened as
ong as they were hoisted on board some
hing stable.
