TEXANS FACE C0URTMAR1|Al
11e GUARDsMEN TO BE TRIED FOR
lNGORlNG GALL.
Secretary of War Reverses Decision
Accepts Advice for Prosecution
-Gavira Asks Conference.

Washington, May 26.-Reversing his
previous decision, Secretary Of War
N. D. Baker has announced that the
116 members of the Texas national
guard who failed to present them
selves for muster into the federal ser
vice, will be brought to ceurtmartial
Immediately under the present law.
Mr.. Baker had intended to await the
signing of the new militia law now
before the president and proceed un-
der it's provisions.
Baker Explains Action.
Secretary Baker explained his &C
ton by pointing out the differences in
the enlistment oaths guardEmen are
required to take under the Dick law
and the new HayChamberlain bill.
The Dick law requires an obligation
to defend the constitution and obey
the orders Of the governor of the state,
but not the order Of the president.
The ay-Chamberlain act requires an
oath to obey orders Of both the gov
ernor and the president.
On recommendation of Judge Advo-
cate General Crowder, the secretary
has decided the alleged offense of the
guardsmen refusing to present them
selves for muster was committed I'M
der the Dick law and trial should be
under that law.

MEXICAN NOTE TO

GRAVE DOMESTIC SITUATION IN
REPUBLIC is REFLECTED IN
UNOFFICIAL ADVICES.
NEW REVOLTS THREATENING
Carranza Government May Fear Con-
sequences at Home Of a Recession
From the Demand for Recall
of u. S. Troopers.

Washington, May 26.-Rumors that
General Carranza. In his new note to
the United States, in some form might
renew his request for Withdrawal of
the American expeditionary force from
Mexico were given credenee in official
quarters here.
Unofficial advices have reflected a
grave domestic situation in Mexico,
due to labor and other economic diff
ficulties and to the menace OF renewed
revolutionary activities. It has been
suggested that under the circum
stances the de facto government might
fear the consequence at home OF re-
cession from the demand for with
drawal.
Recent reports from Special Agent
Rodgers at Mexico City nave indicated
a growing friendlfness toward the
United States and have led the state
department to hope that the new COM
munication would suggest resump-
ton of negotiations for protocol COW
ering the operations of the American
force.
The state departments dispatches
from Special Agent Rodgers indicated
that the new note probably already
was on it's way.

mention Alsace-Lorraine, nor even
Russia. The premier and foreign Sec
