GAN NOT CHANGE THE
 LOCATIONS OF BANKS
Attorney General Gregory to Give Opinion on Matter of Federal Reserve Board.
lsy aeview le,sen Mire ]

WASHINGTON, April 15.--Attorney General Gregory today held that the federal reserve board has no authori- ty to change the location of federal reserve bank. His opinion submitted in response to a request from the board. also held that there is nothing in the law to prevent reduction of the capital Of reserve banks. fixed at s4.O0o. 900 on organization by the of fer of members of banks from one district to another.
 The attorney generals opinion, which was not made public. is under stood to hold that inasmuch as the law provides that the charters issued to existing reserve banks shall run for period of twenty years. bank location could not be changed without forfeiting of it's che rter. which is not permitted by law.
 Official designation of reserve banks by the name of the cities in which they are located. is cited as one req. son why the power of relocation does not rest with the board. It would be impossible. the attorney is said Io have held. to transfer a bank without changing it's name which would re- quire that the bankers charter be for feited and charter to it's successor is sued. Otherwise, already the name would be the same in which case the Richmond bank. for instance. al though located in Baltimore. still would be officially the federal reserve bank of Richmond

SAN ANTONIO, April 15.--It was an "u~provoked attack" upon unarmed American soldiers. who had entered Parral merely to purchase supplies that precipitated action between Mex ! licans and Americans there, according 1 to an official report received tonight from General Pershing. His report was the first news that has been re- ceived of the incident, from the Amer , ican front.
 General Pershing sent his report in duplicate from Satevo, 90 miles north west of Parral. It appeared that he did not receive a report from the troops yet in the vicinity of Parral un- til today and that upon its receipt he forwarded his report to General Funs- ton immediately. He said that part of ,he soldiers. leaving their arms at the camp outside the town, entered to buy food They were fired upon and re. leated in the direction of the camp. Ihe troops there moved forward to meet tine Mexicans who were pursuing the reireating troops and began a sharp fire. killing forty MeXicans. He reported the American dead as two. No mention of wounded either of the Americans or Mexicans was made.
 The Americans were a detachment of the 10th Cavalry and it was indicat- ed that they were commanded by Col. w C. Brown
 General Pershing said he had des patched additional troops in the direc- tion of Parral. but General Funston withheld. for military reasons, that part of the information relating to what units were being moved and the exact disposition, although he intimat- ed that he regarded the orders GeneT- al Pershing had issued as covering the situation
 General Funston did not regard Gen eral Pershing's report as wholly satis- factory, however, because of its brevi- ty. He sent him a message tonight asking him to amplify it as quickly as possible. Whether the attack on the men who went into Parral was made by residents or by soldiers. or wheth- CT by both was not stated and no men tion was made of any assistance given the Mexican troops in the suppression of rioters or in the restoration of or der.
 One copy of the report was sent through Consul Letcher at Chihuahua to the State Department in code. This was sent from Chihuahua over the commercial wires in control of the Mexican governm The Amercan military has not been permitted 10 use the wires for transmission of code messages.

M MEX|CANS ARE URGED TO RISE
 AND EXPEL
 INVADERS
Circulars Posted in Magdalena District of Sonora Advo- cates Trouble for Carranza and United States.
fBy Review Leased Wirej

DOUGLAS, April 15.-Circulars . printed in Spanish, calling upon loyal Mexicans to rise and aid in expelling the American troops from Mexican soil. were posted recently in several localities in the Magdalena district of Sonora. according to an American phy- sician arriving here who is unwilling that his name should be used because he intends to return to Mexico soon.
 American troops have crossed the border. All MeXicans are urged to join in expelling the invaders of their country" is free translation of this notice, the doctor said
 The notices are believed to have been posted by Villa sympathizers he says. although many Mexicans do not hesitate to express their resentment because the Americans have entered their country. It is only in a few localities that ill-feeling toward the Americans is exhibited. The circular comprises the chief evidence of this feeling
 Not since the American troops cross ed the international boundary in pur- suit of Villa, has Douglas passed through day of such nervous tension as today. When 1t became known this morning that som; Of th .rilitarv or sanizations stationed here had been informed that they were to hold them selves in readiness to leave here at a moments notice. coupled with the serving of field rations, etc, to the men. as though in preparation for i'm mediate departure. numerous high colored rumors were set afloat The least of these was that all of the soldiers stationed here were to be withdrawn. No troops left during the day. A majority of the soldiers sta tioned here were held in Camp Harry J. Jones, mile east of Douglas. not being allowed to leave the limits of the camp.
 It was stated on high military au- thority that even if a portion of the troops were removed, from here. enough would be left to protect the city and adjacent district in any event.
 The rumor vendors did not pause in the local field. but spread frightful stories about preparations for Mexi- can raids. That several field guns. screened from view from this side of the line had been discovered pointing toward Douglas was one of the ru- mOrS.
 The story that thousands of De Fac to troops were congregating a few miles south Of here in preparation for raiding the town, was again revived. Still another rumor. believed by many but denied by the military. was that two field guns had been discovered hidden in the homes of Mexicans in Piertleville. suburb of one mile north of Douglas.
 Military and civil officers were kept busy tracing these rumors to their sources and Investigating. but with out result

GENERAL STRIKE IF SEAMEN |S FORESEEN IN
 ACTION
Two Steamships Tied Up, for Various Periods in N. Y. Sailors Want 25 Per Cent. Increase in Wages.
(sy Review Leased Wire.)

NEW YORK, April 15.-Action be lieved to be the forerunner of an effort to cause a general strike among sea men of all classes on ocean going steamships resulted here today in one vessel, the American liner Mongolia. being delayed several hours in sail ing; another, the New York and Porto Rico liner, Brazos. being forced to anchor down the bay after leaving the pier
 The Mongolia, laden with 100000 tons of mixed cargo for Liverpool was to sail early in the day. but did not get away until D. m. The crew it was said, struck after a demand for higher wages had been refused by officials of the American line. When the yes sel finally sailed it was expected that truce" had been effected. and that some of the demands of the strikers had been granted.
 The Brazos had made her way as far as the statute ofliberty on her out ward voyage when a delegation of firemen. coalpassers and sailors was saidto have appeared before Captain H. w. Barstow and presented de mands similar to those in the case of the Mongolia Captain Barstow anchored his ship and communicated the news of the threat ened strike to the owners. The latter declined to make any comment to- night.
 The demands of the seamen were printed in four languages, English. Spanish. Italian and Portuguese.-and posted by the strikers on the Mon- golia and the Brazos. They were sign ed by officers of the International Seamen's Union of America.

OTHER NATIONS ARE
 DEEPLY CONCERNED
American Demand Will Be Ready for Dispatch to Der lin Sometime During the Coming Week.
(sy Review Leased Wire )

WASHINGTON. April 15. - While President Wilson and Secretary Lan- sing today were engaged in marshall ling the accumulation of evidence that Germany. in her submarine warfare. had violated solemn pledges given to the United States of the word of two more shipping disasters, apparently due to illegal acts by German submar- ire commanders, was received at the State Department Consular dispatch es indicated that the steamship Mar gan Abbey was attacked without warn ing on April s and that the Inveriyon was sunk by shell fire after the crew had been forced 10 the small boats more than 100 miles from shore.
 Americans were aboard both ships and were endangered.
 These two cases are being investi- gated and may be included in the Am erican demand of German methods of conducting submarine warfare which it was said tonight would be ready for transmission to Berlin early next week The President and Secretary Lansing devoted large part of the day to the consideration of the submarine situa- tion They had before them a number of afidavits secured from American survivors of the Sussex and other yes sells recently attacked and number of documents containing information for warded by the British government. These documents arrived on the liner St. Paul yesterday. They reached here this afternoon.
 It was said the actual value of affi- davits had been materially lessened by the contents of the German note replying to the American inquiries. The affidavits probably would have rlsyed an important part in the indict ment if the administration did not re- gard the German statements about the Sussex as constituting virtual admisl sion of guilt.
 It became known here tonight that the contemplated action of the United States. which is expected to bring the submarine controversy to a clear cut issue. is being watched closely by the diplomatic representatives of other neutral nations. The United States is taking into consideration the case of many neutral vessels which, while not carrying American citizens. have been sunk by German submarines. Inves- tigation of these cases has been pro- ceeding some time. Furthermore, the interests of the United States and oth- CT neutrals are understood to be identi- cal in some of the cases. So far, how ever, the United States has declined to act with other neutrals not only in re- gard 10 the submarine question but on other subjects as well. It was said the American government saw no need for joint action in the present situation. l IL was reiterated they thought talk ing the action contemplated the Presi- dent would consult with Congressional leaders. It was indicated that Repub- licans as well as Democrats would be called into the conference.
