TO DRAFT NATIONAL
 GUARDSMEN AT ONCE
Secretary Baker Presents New Regular Army
 Plan to Hay.

Washington, June 22.-A resolution authorizing the President to draft national guardsmen to take the feder- al oath immediately into the regular army, under the terms of the new army bill was submitted by Secretary Baker to Chairman Hay of the house military committee. MT. Hay said he would call it up tomorrow and press for immediate action.
 If possible MT. Hay said, he would obtain consideration of the resolution by unanimous consent, but he was prepared to ask for a special rule if necessary
 The resolution differs slightly from the provision of the measure original 1y prepared for bringing the national guard into federal service in that it would provide for service during "the period of the emergency instead of "the period of the war;
 Members of the active guard of the reserves in all states, territories and the District of Columbia who take the oath would be subject to draft under the resolution. The President would be authorized to combine vari- Ous incomplete units in order to bring them up to war strength and to ap- point officers for them.

ARREDONDO SEEKING
 REASONS FOR FIGHT
Calls on Lansing and Asks Explanation of Carrizal
 Battle.

Washington June 22.-Eliseo Are today called on Secretary Lansing and asked for an explanation of the action of American troops in approaching g the town of Carrizal. MT. ArredOndO also sought an explanation of the re- ported action of Gen. Pershing in oc- cupying the towns of Casas Gran5es and Nuevo Casas Grandes, saying such an act would be one of open hostility.
 Official Mexican dispatches were de- scribed to Secretary Lansing, 'ndlcat- ing that the Mexican forces thought the American troops who approached Carrizal intended to take the town. Mr. Arredondo said he called Secre- tary Lansing's attention to the dlS- tance traversed by the American troops from their base and to what he called "the lack of prudence or the American commander in ap- preaching the Mexican railway.
 Secretary Lansing had no official .n- formation on which to discuss the Carrizal affair and according to MI. Arredondo, also was without krtoWl- edge of whether any Mexican towns actually had been occupied.
 He said his reports showed that seV- enteen soldiers had been captured, but did not give the number of casualties among either the Americans or the Mexican forces.

No New Orders For Funston.

 Secretary Baker informed President Wilson early today that there had been no report from Gen. Pershing on the fight between American and Car ranza soldiers near Carrizal yester- day. Mr. Baker went to the White House with despatches from Gen. Funston giving such information as had been obtained from Mexican sources.
 Later Secretary Baker said no new orders had been sent to Gen. Funston and that the government would take no step until an account from it's own officers showing what happened had been received.
 National guardsmen to reinforce the border patrol will be sent as soon as their mobilization and organization is completed but MT. Baker would not predict when that might be.
 We have only the information from Mexican sources and from a few Americans who arrived on trains it Fl Paso" said the secretary. We are waiting for further information, eith- CT from Gen. Pershing or other Amer jean sources"
 He would not state whether a puni- tive expedition would be ordered to pursue the Mexicans who attacked the Americans.
 From unofficial sources MT. Baker said he had been informed of the al- legged statement by Gen. Obregon as- suming responsibility for the orders is sued to the Mexican detachment which made the attack. He would not comment.
 Secretary Baker said no marching orders had gone to national guard units. Nothing could be done, he de- clared, until a report from American sources had been received.
 Other officials took the same view. They would not discuss possibilities on the basis of the incomplete and conflicting Mexican advices.

Causes Alarm Among United States
 Army Officers Who Are Confdent
 of Ability to Carry Out Without
 Any Hitch Any Orders That May
 Be Sent Them.
 San Antonio Tex, June 22.-Gep. Funston's headquarters reflected early today the unrelieved strain in the Mexican situation.
 The night had passed without news from Gen. Persh1ng and army officers here professed to see remaining rhance that war might be avoided, although unwilling to believe that the commander of the American force that clashed yesterday with Gen. Ire who's men at Carrizal had been the aggressor.
 Frank skepticism was aroused by g not have been attempting to enforce the Carranza edict by force, and it was pointed out that his determination to force the Americans back to their own line was indicated by the official admission that he had sent a message to the American commander advising him to withdraw.
 Gen. Funston spent the night in ef- forts to learn more details of what occurred at Carrizal.
 Staff officers realized that in the event of military. operations on 8 big scale. the great problem would be in dealing with the various big units of the Carranza army stationed within striking distance of every point Of entry from Brownsville to Lower California.
 News that Juarez was being evacu- Rted by the Mexican garrison did not surprise the headquarters staff, which yesterday learned that Gen. Ricaut had removed his forces from Mata- moras and that similar action had been taken at one or two other towns. In no case, however, have E the Mexican forces moved far south < of the border. Apparently the inten- ton of the Mexican army officers was to make such disposition of their men that defense could be maintained I beyond towns that lie under the guns z planted on the American side. not < able exception was offered at Piedras Negras opposite Eagle Pass, where the garrison at Ojinaga, opposite Pre- sidio, and from Negales also was re- ported a heavy concentration in the Interior and in position to menace a rich valley on the American side.
 None of the reported Mexican troop movements caused anxiety at army headquarters, however, where conf7- dence is felt in the ability of the American forces to carry out, without hitch, any orders they may receive.

CARRANZA TROOPS EXPECTED TO EVACUATE JUAREZ TO-DAY
Trevino Believed to Have Ordered Redisp0sition of Troops Composing Ring Around Pershing's Men to Offset Relignment which Began Yesterday.

Ell Paso, June 22.-Evacuation of Juarez by the Carranza garrison is ex- pected today as a result of yester- days battle between troops of the Tenth Cavalry and a Carranza com mand at Carrizal, in which a number been killed.
 Reports to General George Bell, Jr, commanding the El Paso military dis trict, indicated that hurried prepara- tions for the departure of the 4,OOO troops under General Francisco Con- gales were being made in Juarez throughout the night. Troop trains with steam up stood in the railway yards while supplies, armament food and forage were being hastily loaded into freight cars.
 Captain James Allison, provost mar shal of Fl Paso, received a report rom a Mexican source early today that the evacuation of Juarez was already un- der way and that one train of box cars and day coaches, heavily loaded with soldiers, some of whom were perched on the tops of the cars had left for the south over the Mexican Central line.
 Throughout the night the streets in Juarez were filled with cavalrymen, a number of small detachments moving from the city and into the hills be- yond, while others left Juarez ostensi- bly, to taken station at border points within a few miles of Fl Paso. How ever, neither Andres Garcia, Mexican consul at E1 Paso, who spent the night in the Mexican town, nor Mexican mill itary officials would discuss the report ed evacuation over the telephone.
 "Details of the engagement at Car
 rizal are awaited anxiously here. Gen.
 Bell said early today that no reports had been received from Gen. Persh- ing, the American expeditionary com mander, or from any of his subordin- ate officers.
 Confidence was expressed, however, that the American version of the clash would be received later in the day. Pitfan For Cava1rymen. A new version of the engagement
 was brought here today by a Mexican | civilian, who was in Villa Ahumada early yesterday afternoon and who said he assisted in dressing some of | the Mexican wounded. He said that | Gen. Felix Gomez, the slain Carranza | leader, had been aware of the ap-
 proach of the Americans for twelve l hours and had sent a number of i couriers to them warning them to re- 1 turn to their encampment When they l persisted in their advance, he said. a i pftfall several hundred feet in length 1 was dug directly in the trail over which the cavalrymen must ride This

Large Concerns May Announce General Plan Within Next
 TWenty-four Hours
WOULD GREATLY ENCOURAGE
 MORE MEN TO ENLIST HERE
Companies E and I May Be Ordered to Report at Mantle Tomorrow Although no Official Information in Change of Original Plan Has Been Received-NeW Recruits Continue to Volunteer Their Services.

New Britain manufacturers, it is planning to get together on the question of providing for their men who are entering the military service and within the next twenty-four hours developments of an interesting character are looked for. With the manufacturers the question of allow ing men to depart helter skelter from any and all departm ents is a serious matter, as most of the local concerns are rushed. Each factory has it's own particular problems to face, but with the aim of getting together and agreeing on some general policy of releasing men for government ser vice and providing something in the way of recompense for the men who have offered their service to the country in it's time of need they will meet and decide the issue.
 This, it is felt, will prove more satisfactory for all concerned than for one or two factories who perhap ps can afford to spare the men and care for their families in handsome shape, to offer large premiums, leaving the rest open to unjust criticism that they Ia ok the true spirit of patriotism.
 Thus far although rumors and re- ports are of frequent occurrence no concern has yet made definite an- nouncement that it would make pro- vision for the enlisted men. One re- port gained considerable credence this morning that a large local con- cern had offered half pay for an in definite period, but investigation de- veloped the fact that the company was considering the matter, but would await the action of the manu- facturers in general before an- nOuncing a decision.
 Would Aid Enlistnents.
 While enlistments are being made hourly at the armory, the local cap tains feel that no one thing would stimulate this essential work as much &s definite assurance from all the factory heads in New Britain that their men and their families would be protected while they are away stripes.
 May Move Tomorrow
 All kinds of reports were ahOat to- day at the armOry as to when orders to move to Mantle will be issued. It vas reported on excellent authority that the order to start would be given early Saturday morning and another

SAYS DRINK LEMONADE
FOR RHEUMATISM

Relief from rheumatism and sciatica
can be obtained by drinking lemonade
and avoiding alcoholic drinks.
To get rid of this stubborn disease,
however; to stop the twinges, pain and
swelling, and drive the poisonous accu
mutations from the joints and muscles,
all generously inclined druggists will tell
you to take half teaspoonful of Rheuma
daily until all misery ceases.
Rheuma is a powerful remedy, because
only a powerful remedy can overcome
such a terrible disease; but Rheuma acts
speedily the first dose taken and you'll
know that you will soon be your healthy,
happy self again.
The Red Cross Pharmacy and all drug
gists know what Rheuma will do, for
they sell great deal of it and guarantee
that two 50-cent bottles will overcome
rheumatic agony or money back.--Adv.
