WASHINGTON ORDERS
TROOPS TO BORDER
BY CARL u. GROAT

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON. July 6.--Though
convinced that danger Of war with
Mexico has passed for the present.
the War Department today stood by
its original intention to send all Of
the militiamen originally called to the
border.
It has been suggested that forces not
already entrained might be held at
their base mobilization camps, but
the department said officially today
there has been no change in plans,
and that none is in prospect.
Aside from the advantage of mobili-
zation and the hardening process of
border patrol, the department deems it
avisable thoroughly TO protect the
border against raids while diplomatic
negotiations are in progress. These,
IT is thought, will occupy two or three
weeks at the least In the meantime
some plans for replacing militia with
regular army may be worked out.

was about to return to Wilmington
Colonel StOver suggested that it take
as passengers two women WIN live
at Richardson Park, who had been
visiting relatives in camp. That eX-
planned why the car was near Rich

accident Colonel Sparks said the
statements of the two women and the
chauffeur differed materially from the
cause as given by Walter Handy, col
ored, whose carriage figured in the
collision with the departments auto

ton as to the car being placed at the

BRING BACK SLAIN

at Fl PaSO
BOX CAR IS THE
FUNERAL COACH

Ell PAsO, Tex. July 6.-Dug up
from shallow graves at the scene Of
the Carrizal fight, the bodies of Cap
tain BOYD. Lieutenant Adair and
seven negro troopers were
brought back to FL Paso in a box car
today. The Carranza authorities de-
termined that there should be no dem
onstration at the international bridge,
which was thronged with soldiers and
citizens anxious to do honor to the
nations heroic dead.
The throng waited. not knowing
that a switch engine had crossed 10
the American side from Juarez. haul
ing an old box car which carried the
remains home
The nine caskets were placed in
the freight car by the Carranzista
military authorities in Juarez, and the
car was sealed. On the American
side the caskets were placed aboard
motor-trucks. and each draped with
the national colors. Later detach-
m mt of the Eighth Cavalry was to
escort the trucks to an undertaken S
parlors to be prepared for burial.
The commission which returned
with the bodies reported anti-Amer-
lean feeling in the Carrizal district
still very bitter. The Carranz'sta com
mander did not allow the American
dead to be brought into Carrizal. He
placed an armed guard over the re-
mains. and Carranzista soldiers ac-
companied the commission on the
special train to the border.
The fate Of the fourteen American
soldiers missing from the Carrizal
fight is a mystery here. IL is be-
lieved their bodies were either Gre
mated by the Carranzistas or were
left lying on the desert. the prey OF
wolves.
The bodies Of Captain Boyd. Lieu

ers will be shipped to their homes
for burial. Those unclaimed probably
