OSBORN MAKES ANNOUNCEMENT

shall not be candidate for presi-
dent in the Michigan primaries.
This statement appears to be war
ranted by previous personal utter
ance TO the effect that l would be a
candidate il Senator William Alden
Smith is not The candidature OF
Senator Smith had been announced
and | had publicly rendered him my
cordial support. Came an interview in
the New York Times afterwards quot
ing Senator Smith as saying there was
nothing serious about his favorite
son activity and that he was for an
other. The Senator, so far as my
knowledge extends did not repudiate
that interview. IL was at once inter-
preted that Senator Smith was only
planning to control the Michigan
situation for whatever might be gain
ed by so doing did not like the in
terview or the Interpretation.
At about this time my name was
suggested for the presidency by many
influential persons and newspapers in
several states. Desiring TO further the
dignity OF Michigan and obtain for our
state some OF the great consideration
il deserves, | challenged the position
OF Senator Smith. This caused Repre-
sentative Patrick Kelley, manager of
the mith-for-president movement, to
al once issue a formal statement that
Senator Smith was bona fidc candi-
date. The Senator himself was ma
rooned i'm California by the floods. He
has recently returned TO Washington
and fortified Mr.. Kelly's statement by
personal utterances that leave no
doubt OF the worthiness and earnest
ness OF his position. Consequently,
shall continue TO give to him my earn
est support
Senator Smith is a deserving son OF
Michigan. In long and creditable
career he has served in both houses OF
the Congress OF the United States. In
politics he resides in a position mid
way between the extremes and should
appeal favorably TO all factions this
year when republicans hunger for
harmony in order that the real danger
of democratic maladministration may
be removed and the paralysis OF
national honor cured.
| II is well known that at the recent
meeting in Chicago OF the sub-com-
mittee OF the Republican National
Committee 10 select a temporary chair
man for the convention at Chicago
June Z, my name was given prominent
consideration thank those who
would thus honor me. Also am
grateful to the many who have thought
OF me as an acceptable presidential
candidate II il should transpire at
any time during the convention that
there Is an opportunity to nominate
any citizen of Michigan am confident
that the delegation from this state will
act for the welfare of the nation, OF the
state and OF the party as its earnest
and honest larger convictions would
dictate.
The Nation has indeed fallen into a
somber place. Nothing can rescue II
until there is efficient government.
This demands the defeat OF the demo-
cratic novices at both Washington
and Lansing. No real preparedness
can be planned until this is done. Only
harmony born OF common sense can
equip the republican party 10 do it's
work. II is in this interest that take
the position outlined above.
Yours respectfully.

TO WITHHOLD SHIPMENT
 OF ARMS AND AMMUNITION
Plans Have Been Made By the Navy
 and Treasury Departments.


 Washington. June 20 The purpose of the United States to withhold all arms and ammunition shipments from Mexico sas long as this menace con- tiriues,r is announced. It was learn ed today that plans have been laid by the navy and treasury departments to aid in stopping such shipments by wa ter, while the military patrol of the border will close that route.
 Another preparatory step taken by the navy was the decision of Secretary Daniels to ask the senate to add au- thorization for approximately 10000 additional enlisted men to the pend ing navy bill. which as 1t passed the house provides for an increase of H. 900 over the present strength.
 NTr Daniels explained that the nec- essity of putting many small ships, usually held in reserve into commits sion for service in southern waters made it imperative that the navy be recruited up promptly. It is possi- ble the authorization for the increase will be sought Tn a separate measure to avoid delay. Should war come the personnel of the fleet must be imme- diately increased. the aviation corps ana other auxilithy service must be strengthened and an ample reserve of trained men must be prepared.

The Russians, continuing their ad- vance against the Austrians through Buwokina, have crossed the Sereth river southwest of Czernowitz and oc- cupied the towns of Zadova, Stroginetz and Gliboka. The Austrians in this region, their army cut in two. are de- clared by Petrograd to be in disorder ly retreat with the Russians energet- ically pursuing them toward the Car pathian mountains.
 The element of uncertainty as to t11e situation between the Prfpet river and the Ga1ician frontier has arisen owing to the divergent reports of the Rus sian and German war offices, both of which claim successes for their armies. Northeast of Kiselin, which lies be- tween Lutsk and Vladimir Volyski, Petrograd says an Austrian attack. supported by Germans was repulsed, while Berlin asserts that the Teutonic allies were victorious and are fighting their way forward against the Rus sians

attacks on any large Mexican force which might attempt to assault Gener- al Pershing's entrenched camps or cut him of from his border base of supplies. One column with strong artillery support, is said to be ready to cover Pulpit Pass. the military highway through the mountains be- tween the states of Chihuahua and Sonora and through which the formi- dabIe Sonora garrisons might seek to strike at Pershingss rear detachments.
 It was pointed out that establish ment of general line across Mexico south of Pulpit Pass would close that route to hostile forces. Another ar- gument advanced in support of the plan of action was that the various railroads could be quickly repaired and made use of to supply the troops. making 1t possible to shirt the entire scene of hostiiities on to Mexican soil

NOTE VIEWED AS THE

It Arraians the De Faeto President For Allowing Bandits to Roam at Will
 Washington, June 20-Fhe note de- livered today is viewed here as Pres ident's final word to General Carran- ga. It makes no overtures for furth- CT discussion and leaves virtually no question to be settled except one whether the de facto government will suppress outlawry against Americans. It arraignes General Carranza by name for having permitted bandits to roam at will through territory contiguous to the United States while he has seen fit to recite sgroundless sentiments of hostility toward the expedition sent after Villa and eto iilpute to this government u1teri0r motives for the continued presence of American troops Eou Mexican soil. ss S
 Secretary Lansing calls attention in the note to many evidences of Car ranza,s hostile attitude as contained in official reports and asserts that the steps toward clearing up the situation In northern Mexico promised by Gen. cral Obregon at conferences with Gen. efal Scott actually have constituted a display of military force directed at the American expedition and designed to impede it's operations. He affirms too. that Carranza has given his sup port to the press campaign of anti American agitation in Mexico and cites a published statement by the first chief calling upon the Mexican people to be ready for any emergency and intimating that with the United States is impending.

ARMY OFFICERS ADMITTED
 PRIVATELY WAR IS IMMINENT
Say carranza Has Shown Determine
 ton to Force the Issue.

Washington, June 2o.-Army officers and high officials here admitted pri- vately their belief that war was inn n1inent, since Carranza had given ev- cry indication Of determination to force the issue at any cost, but were disposed to refrain from making any statements that might serve to further inf1ame the minds of the Mexican peo- pie.
 For the same reason the proposed resolution to put into immediate ef- feet the national guard provisions of the new army bill was not presented ln congress. The section of the bill referred to contains the statement that the men shall be called under the draft flor the duration of the war;" unless sooner discharged. Because of this phraseol0gy and also because adoption of the resolution would be only a mat ter of a few minutes when needed, leaders in congress determined to hold it up until events show what is to be expected beyond the border.

 The Russians also claim defeat of u1e Teutonic allies southeast Of Lo- katchi, which lies eouth of Kisalin. while Berlin declares that between the Kovel-Lutsk railroad and the Turia river the Teutons have broken down the Russian resistance or repulscd their attacks.
 In Galicia in the region of Buczacz Austrians and Germans are stin dea- perately resisting the Russian attempts to press forward toward Lemberg.

 Attacks and counter attacks by the Austrians and Italians tn the Trentino region have followed each other, but neither of the belligerents has been able to make any marked progress

Columbus. N. M., June 2o.-Carranza troops and soldiers of General Per shing's expeditionary command south of Namiquipa are on the verge of nos- tilities, according to reports from the field tonight. A wireless despatch from Col. D. c. CabeI, General Per- shing's chief of staff, said that the at tttude of the Carranza soldiers was such that American motor truck SUD- ply trains are in danger of being fired upon.
 The Mexicans are said to have mounted artillery in positions menac- ing the Americans, and despatches in- dicated that with the two commands in close proximity the danger of a clash is increasing.
 Persistent rumors were current here tonight that General Pershing has split his command into three columns each prepared to move in the event o1 hostilides, while others said that truck trains had been fired upon. No con frmation of the reports could be ob- tained at military headquarters here

CIRCULATING ON PROBABLE
 COURSE TO BE PuRsuEE
Believed That Military Occupation of Northern Mexico Has Been consid- cred.

e
 Washington. June 20. There was much speculation here on all sides to- night as to the probable course of the president should Carranza order an attack on General Pershing's men in the face of the American governments solemn warning It Was generally be- lieyed that the hint contained in Sec .retary Lansing's note that military occupation of northern Mexico has been considered as an alternative at times when the situation beyond the border appeared critical, might indf- cate the plan of action should war now be forced on the nation. As a pre- lininary step to such an occupation and pending an organization of an army Of the size of such an undertak- ing would require, it was regarded as possible that a general advance from the border to a line paralleling the head of General Pershings s column at Namiquipa might be undertaken. With American forces disposed along such line holding important towns and strategic points from the Pacific to the Gulf coast, there would be no fear of serious hostilities at the border. Any advancing Mexican force would be
 subject to attack from the rear should 1 it move northward of this advanced l line.
