slams, IL Being Claimed the Great
Southern Austrian Army is
In Flight.

London.-By series OF night at
tacks the French at Verdun have sue
ceeded in winning back positions east
of the Mouse, lost to the Germans on
Saturday. These winnings consist OF
trenches west of the Thiamont redoubt
and certain parts of the town OF
Fleury, just south of Fort Thiamont.
II was TO capture these points that
the crown prince threw in, and ac'
cording to the French official reports,
sacrificed his Bavarian regiments In
the Saturday action.
The crown prince evidently Is de-
termined TO make another desperate
effort to recapture the terrain, BON
bardment of "redoubled violence" on
Fleury and Froide Terre Gold Earth
hilD, having begun. II is stu in
progress.
The whole rich Austrian crown land
of Bukowina--4,0 37 square miles-has
fallen to the Russians.
The Austrian stand at Kuty on Sat
urday was only a rear guard action, II
seems, for Sunday Vienna officiall ad
mitted retreat from end to end OF

tween Mexican ant American troops

scene of the fight at Carrizal after
his men had been broken and scat
tered by the Mexican force, was re-
ceived by General Funston through
General Pershing Sunday night. In
that letter, Captain Morey had de-
scribed how, fearing an ambush. the
American troopers, Capt. Charles T.
Boyd commanding, had advanced in
battle formation on the Mexicans who
had come out from Carrizal during a
parley over permission for the Ameri-
cans to pass through the town; how
the Mexicans had opened fire and how
the remaining Americans, after their
first advance. and been forced to re-
treat and scatter. each for himself.
Captain Morey's letter told OF the
joining of c troop under Captain Boyd
and X troop under his own command
at Ojo Santo Domingo June 20 and
the advance together toward Carrizal
June 81. They arrived in an open
field a mile from Carrizal at 1880 in
the morning. There they halted and
Captain Boyd sent a courier into Car
rial asking permission of General Fe-
lix Gomez to enter the town, saying
he was going to villa Ahumada. Go
mez replied that he would not be al
lowed TO enter the town but might
make detour around it.
Fearing that they were about to be
trapped by the MeXicans who had
sailed out from the town during the
parley, the American troops deployed
in battle formation, mounted and
moved forward, The Mexicans then
opened fire, Captain Boyd ordered his
men to dismount and returned the fire
the engagement lasting about an
hour.
Both c and X troops advanced, the
former to the position occupied by a
Mexican machine gun and the latter
closing In to one side. X troop also
was attacked from the flank, while a
detachment OF Mexicans from the
town reached the rear of the Ameri
can line and stampeded the led horses
The Mexicans succeeded in checking
the American advance and the Ameri
cans first were forced to fall bach
and finally to scatter each for himself

MEXICO IS GIVEN
ONE MORE CHANCE

DIERS AND REPUDlATE
ATTACK OF TROOPS.
Failure to Comply With Demands Of
Government IL is Understood viii
Preeipitate War With the
United States.

Washington A demand for the
immediate release of the American
troopers taken prisoner at Carrizal,
coupled with stern notification that
the United States expects an early
statement of the purposes of the Car
rama government was telegraphed to
Mexico City Sunday by Secretary
Lansing. Failure to comply with the
demand undoubtedly would result in
the gravest consequences.
The note discloses that the state de.
partment had received a communica.
ton from the de facto government
stating that the Carrizsl fight was the
direct result of orders to attack Amer.
lean soldiers moving otherwise than
by General CaTranza to General Tire
vino and by the latter communicated
to General Pershing
In reply Secretary Lansing requires
that the de facto government transmit
a definite statement "as to the course
of action II has determined upon
through the usual diplomatic channels
"and not through subordinate military
officers"
The Mexican communication is con
strued, Secretary Lansing states, "as
formal avowal of deliberately hos
tile action against the forces OF the
United States now in Mexico. and OF
the purpose to attack without provo
cation whenever they move from their
present position" despite the friendly
mission on which they are engaged
and which is reaffirmed in the Amer
lean rejoinder.
| General Carranza Is required 70
place himself on record formally and
the plain intimation lies behind the
restrained language of Mr.. Lansing's
communication that force will be mel
with force. Apparently. however, the
Washington government is determined
that the dc facto government shall
not evade responsibility before the
world il war is forced upon the United
| States,
