Fl Paso, June 23-American guns command thu situation at every inn portant border point today. Field ar ttllerv has been mounted on hillocks in the larger communities, the noses of their guns pointing in a. souther1y direction while in smaller towns ma chine, gun detachmants have been stationed. Military authorities here and in other (border encampments an nounced that every preeautlon hao been made for possible hostilities.
 After waiting AS hours, the border read news despatches giving the American version of the fight at Car rizal containing General Persh1ng s report that it was unprovoked at tack upon the Americans and then lapsed into expectant waiting.
 When early today the despatches were read to General George Bell, IT. commanding the Fl Paso mili- tary district, over the telephone, he expressed keen qualification but said that he had received no additional or ders from departmental headquarters

 Grave apprehension was manifested here for the safety of the IT Amerl- can prisoners taken in the engage ment who are held by General Ire vino, probably in Chihuahua.

ONLY TWO GIN. 6.
 ORGANIZATIONS i REMAIN INACTIVE
Calls Received By All But Elm City Company and
 Naval Militia.

At present the only National Guard organizations not called into the ser vice are the First Separate company, Infantry, New Haven, and the Naval Militia. The latter have been order ed to prepare for their annual cruise which takes place July 15. The First Separate company is the only colored troop in the state service. Both the First and Second Infantry must in- crease their enlisted personnel by several hundred each or they will not be taken into the United States ser- vice as individual regiments In an effort to stimulate recruiting all the military companies were paraded in day and business houses and business places have been decorated with flags.
 The First Separate company is said to be receiving many recruits but the enlistments are not coming into the other companies as rapidly as is desir- ed. As soon as the infantry regi- ments obtain more recruits they will be sent to the mobilization camp at Mantle.
 Besides the two regiments of in- fantry cavalry troops, sanitary, sig nal troops and ambulance corps, the field batteries and all the attaches of the ordnance and quarterrnasters' departments have been called into the service.
 The Connecticut Coast Artillery corps is of course on it's annual sUnn-' mer maneuver trip but its officers look for call any time as the corps apart from its drills on the big guns is a very efficient infantry unit,

 possible intervention by the United States in the affairs of Mexico.''
 Over night reports from along the border were more or less routine in character. An increasing activity of both troops and civil population in the Mexican towns was indicated, however. Some interest was mani
 fested in orders issued by the de facto consular offices instrueting Mexicans in their districts to return to Mexico at once.
 From several of the larger border ports today came reports that em- bargo is to be placed on the export of foodstuffs in large quantities. Early today a rumor spread through El Paso that a detachment of General | Pershing's command had engaged | Carranza's troops near Narniquipa.
 This was denied, however, by local
 military authorities and the base commander at Columbus.

 Detailed Report From
 Carrazal Battlefield

San Antonio, June 23-GeneraI Funston awaited today further de- tails from General Pershing of the attack at Carrizal by a greatly su- perior force of Mexicans under Gen era1 Felix Gomez on two troops of the 10th cavalry under Captain Boyd. The final outcome of the battle was not made known in General Persh- ing's report received at headquarters last night nor was any indication given of the number of casualties suf- fered by the little American force which had been almost entirely sur rounded by Mexican troops.
 According to the story told General Pershing by stragglers, the attack was entirely unprovoked and was made after the Mexican force had partly surrounded the Americans un- der cover of a barley between Gen era1 Gomez and Captain Boyd.
 General Pershing's report stated that he had warned Captain Boyd be- fore the latter left the main column that he was on a accommodating ex- petition only and that he was to use every precaution against preci pitating a, fight with Mexican troops

 While he fumb1ed for the key which would unlock this door the voice of Mccarthy sounded from the old Death House. He was. calling;
 Don't open the door. He's got a gun. I'm shot and dying. Don't open the door.''
 Capt. Claude Vaughn, in command of the prison forces at night, had re- ceived the alarm and had run to the old Death House door and was peer ing through the panel. At the sound of McCarthy,s voice, ShiI1itoni worked nervously over the keys, finding the right one at last and opening the door,

  hour more he was away from prison has not been learned. He was seen first after his escape when he rang the bell at the home of Mrs. William Romaine in Spring street, and when Mrs. Romaine peered from an upper window asked to be admitted, saying he had no clothes and was cold. Mrs. Romaine, frightened, ordered him away, and he left, only to return in a moment and kick on the door, reiter- ating his demands to be admitted. When Mrs. Romaine refused again he walked across the street to the Qs7. sintng hospital and entered, askin3 Miss Eline, the night superintendent, if she had room flor a poor, friendless man. Miss Eline turned Shillitoni over to an orderly, who let him lie a cot while the superintendent tele- phoned to the prison, and presently keepers appeared for Shillitoni
 Last night Shillitoni was said to be quiet, though under observation. Whether he is insane or is feigning is still a question unsettled by the prison authorities. His actions yesterday morning might be taken for those of a crazy man, it was admitted, but it was pointed out as we'll that nothing could be more clever than for him to walk into the hospital, again feigning insanity when he found his friends had deserted him and ali hope of escape was gone.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure catar-
rhal Deafness, and that is by a con-
stitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
is inf1amed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can
be reduced and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by eatarrh,
which is an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Cure acts thru the blood on the
mucous surfaces of the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Catarrhal Deafness
