Mexico Wants Satisfactory
Solution of Issues
With u. S..
MILITIA ON BORDER
American Soldiers Encounter Dust
Storm, High Winds Sending Clouds
Into Their Eyes

Mexico City, July 6.-Gen. Car
rama received first word from a
United Press cablegram that Sec,
retary Lansing, after studying the
Mexican reply, expressed a willing
ness to continue the negotiations.
The message, which reached the
foreign office before the arrival OF
Minister Arredondo's official advices
was received with undisguised sat,
isfaction by Foreign Secretary Ag,
uilar.
"The Mexican government" said
Aguilar, "invited the Government OF
the United States to continue the IN
ternational negotiations in spirit
of frank cordiality TO reach a salts
factory solution.
at seems that the Government OF
the United States has accepted the
proposition, animated by the same
good will and desires as the MeNi-
can government"

tion of the Massachusetts and New
Mexico militia stationed. here may
be sent into Mexico today as guards
for motor truck trains to General
Pershing's base camp near Colonla
Dublan.
The trip across the border will be
trying for the civilian soldiers. The
smothering alkali dust kicked up by
the trucks, the jolting over the ruttv
trail. and the deser; sun has wllted
the most hardened regulars on the.
first trip.
Yesterday the eastern militiamen
got their first taste of border dust
storm. A high wind swept binding
clouds of the alkali dust through
their camp throughout most of the
day, filing the eyes of the men and
causing them considerable suffering
Without goggles they could not leave
their tents.

of the biggest battle on tn ewestern
front, the maximum strength OF the
conflict has certainly not ye. been
reached. The Germans are throwing
men into their resistance as fas as
their means of transport will permit
and, while many of these troops are
reserves in the strict meaning OF the
term, the mass of them have beer
hurried from other theatres of the
war. but not a single soldier from the
90 mile British front.
"Judging from the prisoners taker
the enemy seems to have arrived al
the stage when he is obliged to builc
up his .defenses with the very dregs
of his human resources.

Especial to the Gazette)
Richmond, July .4-1ndependenc'
DAY passed without incident at Caml
Stuart, save for the routine OF caml
life and preparations for active ser
vice.
1nfreouent booming Of the three
inch field pieces being tried OUT DS
the Howitzers furnished the only
semblance to celebration of nation
nal holiday that net the ears OF the
"reeulars" or those of the VISITORS
from Richmond who went out to see
+ho States militia, mobilize on the
Fair Grounds and waiting hourly or
ders TO leave for the Mexican border
The guardsmen's part in the cltys
celebration of the Fourth was omit
ted entirely, none Of the Khaki CLAD
troops making their appearance IN
the city yesterday. A truly military
parade by at least one and probably
both of the regiments mobilized at
Camp Stuart had been announced as
the big attraction of the day. In
stead, Richmonders who wished to
review the troops had to make the
trip to the Fair Grounds by street
car, and be satisfied with watching
from the grandstand the squad and
company drills performed on the dusty
race course as part of an ordinary
days routine.
Company G. of the First Regiment
better known to readers OF the
Gazette as the Alexandria Light In
fantry spent most of the day in
quarters. Except for q few shrllls OF
the first sergeant's white, calling
the men into ranks for the issuing
of nderclothes and hats, or shoes
to the few men not fully equipped,
the mess calls alone disturbed the
mems leisure.
One detail of twenty privates and
non-commissioned officers marched
over to the field hospital and were
vaccinated against smallpox. The
balance of those who are not salts
factorily vaccinated will be treated
with the serum at the next detail,
probably on Wednesday.
The whole company has been in
noculated for typhoid and must un-
dergo two further injections of the
same serum, at the camp here if
they are held that long, or at any
other point where their new duties
take them.
The Richmond papers this morning
announced that only railway con-
gcstion incident to holiday traffic pre-
vented the First Regiment from en-
training for the border today, as orr
ginally ordered. They spoke with GER
tainty of the movement OF the troops
southwark tomorrow, with Browns
Vile, Texas, as the destination.
Regular foot-movements squad, and
rifle drill will be resumed tomorrow
by those of the men not incapacitaled
by any of the series of innoculations
they are undergoing-this of course
in the absence of actual movement
of the Virginia troops south. Two
and one half hours Of drill following
mess at $50 a. m., and anther two
and one half hours after lunch, is tho
camp routine. The men are picking
up the drill movements. rapidly and
several squads have been commended
by the officers for the readiness with
which they have adapted themselves
to a soldiers life.
