ment would deeply regret and will

that this government would have for
its object not Intervention in Mex

consequences which might result

of American territory from further
invasion by bands of armed Mex

Anxiety.
AWAIT REPORT OF pERsH1Na

Washington, D, C., June a.
While the government had no official
confirmation early today of Mexican
reports that American and Mexican
troops were in battle yesterday,
with heavy losses on the American
side, there was a. stir Of grim pur-
pose about the War and State de-
partments.
Secretary Baker conferred with
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing regarding reports given out
by Mexican commanders at the bor-
der. Afterward Mr.. Baker fastened
to the capitol for conferences with
the congressional niiitzryr9rom
tee chairmen. He submitted 10
Chairman Hay Of the house commit
tee resolution authorizing the pres
ijent to draft National Guardsmen
willing to take the federal oath into
the regular army Immediately. Chair
man Hay will call up the resolution
tomorrow.
Officials said President Wilson
would await definite report OF what
has happened from General Pershing.
1t was not expected until late today,
as the town of Carrizal, where the
fighting was said to have occurred,
is sixty miles or more from General
Pershing's advance base at Nami-
quipa.
Policy Is Unchanged.
AT the White House it was said
the presidents policy was unchanged
for the present at least, and that
Mr.. Wilson had no intention of GO
ing before congress Immediately.
Stories of the fight seem to indi-
cate that the Americans were am.
bushed and suffered their chief losses
from machine gun fire.
1t is presumed General Pershing
promptly dispatched reinforcements
to aid the cavalry detachment.
Secretary Baker said no marching
orders had gone to National Guard
units Nothing could be done, he
declared, until a report from Amer
icarl sources had been received.
There we're no efforts to conceal
the anxiety with which the situation
was viewed. There is enough SINH
larity among the border reports to
convince them that a serious clash
occurred, WHOEVER may have been the
aggressor and whatever the outcome,
1t has brought war with Mexico so
close that officials say any hour may
see the conflict in full swing.
Doubt Americans Aggressors. y
Reports from Mexican sources tell
ing Of the clash, but not disclosing
Anne. ican casualties, were accepted by
o..cials as fairly authentic, although
none would believe that the Amer
leans made the first attack.
Pending receipt OF General Fun
ston's report, President Wilson con-
sidered the situation serious. He was

WELL BELcHES FLAME
Great Fountain os Fire in Abandoned
Bore

Near De BeuQe, Col. an abandoned
oil we'll has developed into a flaming
gas and water gusher which. because
of its peculiar actions, has attracted
considerable attention.
With clocklike regularity great
column of water belches forth every
seventy six hours, shooting to the
height of about $50 feet and lasting
approximately three and half hours.
Especially at night during the periods
of these heavy flows, it looks like an
enormous pillar of fire. The heat con-
verts some of the spray into steam,
which adds materially to the beauty of
the fountain, glowing as it does with
fire of many colors.
The normal flow rises some ten
feet above the ground. while every
forty minutes, and lasting for about
two minutes, the water spouts thirty
feet in the air. The gusher has main
iained this odd schedule for more than
three years with remarkable regular
iry.-Popular Mechanics.

j. 5. TROOPS AMBUsHED
At CARR|zAL--17 KILLED
q TAKEN PRISONERS

Trapped and fighting against heavy
odds, the troops of the 10th cavalry,
engaged at Carrizal on Wednesday,
June 21, charged twice directly into
the jaws of the ambush which the
Mexicans had laid for them.
With bullets in his arm and shoul-
der, Captain Charles T. Boyd, the
commander, remained in the saddle,
leading his negro troopers until they
had captured the concealed Mexican
machine gun trench, when he fell,
mortally wounded, with a bullet in
the eye.
This was the gist of the first de-
tailed account of the engagement
from American sources, which was
brought to General Pershing by Cor
poral Green, of troop G, who was at
Captain Boyd's side until he fell.
The Americans We're 1anked on
both sides by the Carranzistas, who
hard partly surrounded the little COM
| mand between General Felix Gomez,
| the Mexican leader, and Captain
| Boyd. In front was a concealed
| Mexican machine gun trench from
which stream of bullets unexpected
ly was poured into the American
ranks.

CLOSE TAB ON WoRKMEN
is KEPT BY NEW CLOCK
Swiss Invention, Similar to Stop
Watch, Expected in Increase
Factory Efficiency

ClliS'CuSJ
A new watch LIS a number of inter-
esting and valuable functions, but it
will not tell the time. 1t is Of Swiss
origin and manufacture and is close
relative to the stop watch, which was
originally designed for use on the
race track, but this piece is designed
for more practical uses, as it is meant
to comprise part of the equipment Of
the factory and industrial establish
ment where it is desired to secure re-
liable data as to cost and time Of va
rious mechanical operations.
The old fashioned stop watch an.
swered this purpose for long time.
but its use detailed a rather prolong-
ed computation with pencil and paper
to arrive at the result of output per
hour or day. The dial of the new watch
Is divided into tenths and hundredths
Of minutes and also contains figures
spaced two hundredths of a minute
apart and distinctly legible that indl-
cate at any point of elapsed time ex-
actly what the corresponding output
per hour is.
For instance, if it requires rs Of a
minute to perform one operation, as
SHOWN by the stopping of the large
hand, the reading 1873 directly under
1t is the corresponding output per
hour.

ATTACHMENT FOR HAY PRESS
Automatic Tying Device tina. Performs
Entire Work

Will H. Leavitt, of Stamford, Texas,
after seven years of experimenting,
has perfected an automatic tying de-
vice for use on hay press. When the
bale is ready to tie, the feeder simply
touches a button with one foot. A
3emi-circular needle carries the wire
behind the bale, passes over some
nicely adjusted rollers and into other
nicely tying parts where the wire is
cut and the two ends firmly twisted
together. The needle then returns
and allows the next charge of hay to
follow the bale just tied. There must
be as many needles as wires to be tied
on bale. No blocks are required and nu
tying is done by hand.
