to obtain for immediate delivery,
through the courtesy of the British
government, 250 Lewis machine guns
made by the briggs Seabury Ordnance
company for use in Europe. At the

kind hitherto used by United States

munitlon also was being manufactured

IMPORTANT POINTS IN NOTE

Some of the pungent expressions in
the latest Mexican reply to the United
States are as follows:
One hundred and forty Mexicans
have been murdered in United States
territory by american civilians =.
and the guilty never have been
brought to justice or punished.
Charles Watson lost his life in the
calamity at Santa Ysabel through his
own stubbornness.
1t is an established fact that the i'm
cident at ParraI was preciptated by
the imprudent act of the American
commander.
Between men Of loyalty and honor
the answer of General Funston (that
he had given no orders for and had no
knowledge of the movement of new
United States troops into Mexico after
the Glenn Springs incident) could not
be construed in any other manner
but as negative that the troops had
crossed the border. 1t now
seems that General Funston made this
declaration to hide movement which
he had already in view.
. The Mexican government has had
and still has perfect right to de-
mand from the government of the
United States the immediate with
drawaI of its troops, because the stay
of these troops in Mexico is not due
to any existing agreement nor has it
any object.
The American government has no
right to pretend to give protection to
its own citizens In a territory that is
not its own.

Recruiting Is Pushed.

While the work of equipping the
men in camp went on recruiting was
also being pushed ard it was an
nOunced that the provisional brigade
had been recruited to full strength.
Recruiting was continued even after
full war strength had been reached
by the organizations in camp for it
was realized that new units would
have to be formed and the new re-
cruits could be used to advantage In
this way. From Milwaukee came the
report that that city's new cavalry
troop was being recruited rapidly and
that the city might organize still an
other troop or even a whole regiment
of 200 men.
The 1000 men who comprised the
troops which first assembled at Camp
Douglas in response to the presidents
call, have been steadily augmented by
the arrival of fresh recruits. The
task before the commanding officers
has been to add 500 men to each reg-
ment. This means the recruiting Of
1000 additional men, bringing the to-
tai strength of the units assembled
at Camp Douglas up ia more than g.
600 men. The rush to the recruiting
offices of the various companies. how
ever, early showed that this would be
accomplished without difficulty.
