on Douglas from Fronteras, thirty-two
miles south, according to an American
mining man from Sonora today.
He was three days in making his way
from Cumpas to the border through Mex

children, were leaving Nacozari and
Fronteras for Cumpas, forty-six miles
south Of Nacozari, while 10000 recruits
were being rushed north to Fronteras,
the Mexican mobilization point.
Another arrival who posed as a Mex
lean coming through Gales lines states
that Carranza artillery at Fronteras
had moved north 10 Ell sufre. five miles
south of the border, during the night.

Expects Carranza Acceptance.
President Wilson is prepared for an
acceptance by Carranza OF responsibility
by the official telegram made public at
Mexico City, in which Carranza rejected
a plea Of the president Of the Cuban
House Of Representatives that she should
acede to the demands of the United
States.
The demand for the release OF Ameri-
can cavalrymen who were taken at Car
rizal amounts to an ultimatum- If there
is no compliance to it within forty-eight
hours the government will take summary
action, although a time limit was not
fixed. The reply is expected to reject
the American demand.
Belief was almost unanimous yesterday
that President Wilson would appear be-
fore Congress tomorrow and place the
entire Mexican situation before that body.

low Immediately.

Decision Reached at Meeting.
Decision to give Carranza a last chance
to avert war was reached at a White
House conference yesterday between the
President. Secretary Lansing and Secre-
tary Baker.
1t was decided that ii was necessary TO
ask Carranza If the Carrizal attack was
in accordance with his order. in order to
place the responsibility for It, and to
open hostilities. Such an admission would
leave the administration no recourse but
to make an immediate declaration of
war. Officials said coincidently orders
would be given to the army and navy to
press the war for the subjugation OF
Mexico in accordance with plans already
formulated by the Army War College
and the joint army and navy board.
1t became known yesterday that Car
rama has ignored an inquiry made by
the United States several DAYS ago as to
whether he assumed responsibility for
the threats made by Gen. Trevino to at
tack the American forces If they moved
south, east or west from their base. All
unofficial information Is to the effect
that Carranza gave these orders to Tre-
vino through Gen. Obregon, his minister
of war.
