Among the important matters to
come before the board of county COM
missioners at the regular meeting to

 Although strict orders had been given American army officers not to cross the border with armed forces, there was no indication today that Colonel Slocum would be reprimand- cd.
 No Objection from CaIranza.
 Government officials generally agreed that the unusual conditions justified the pursuit. No objection from General Carranza regarding the action of American troops is expect ed.
 News of the Villa outrage caused the deepest indignation, although this was followed by undignified sat isfaction when it became known that American cavalrymen were in pur- suit of the bandits.
 Discussion of the subject in con- gress was expected today. although administration senators were prepar- ed to prevent debate as far as nos sible Senator Fall of New Mexico had announced that he would intro- duce his resolution calling for the raising of a million volunteers to in- tervene in Mexico. This step. he de- clared, would not mean war against Mexico but would avert it.

the border the agitation had broken out afresh in congress.
 Senator McCumber and Senator Fall, both republicans introduced res Olutions proposing armed action in different ways. Both resolutions were referred to the foreign relations com mittee while Chairman Stone coun- selled his colleagues to let the eXecu tive departments of the government handle the situation.
 While the senate was talking and some desu1tory speeches were being made in the house the president acted, and the leaders, notified quickly by telephone from the White House, passed the word around. It spread quickly, but both house and senate received it as coolly as an announce ment of the passage of a routine bill. The democrats generally expressed the opinion that the presidents action was wholly justified and the repub- licans, who have been urging action. expressed qualification that it had been taken. There was no sign of dissatisfaction.
 If President Wilson appears before congress within the next few days, it probably will be to inform that body fully and officially of the condition of affairs in northern Mexico which led up to the sending of American forces and to take congress fully into his confidence.
 When the Atlantic fleet went to Vera Cruz in 1914, congress- at the presidents request, passed resolu- tion authorizing him to use the armed forces of the United States. No action is considered necessary in the present situation at this stage. The adminis- tration holds that the president is fully vested by the constitution with authority to repel invasion and that there are ample precedents in interna- tional law for his action, especially in the dealings of the United States with Mexico.
 No move will be made by the navy for the present. Virtually the entire Atlantic fleet, however, is within two days sail of the Mexican coast, and should CarranZa's forces be unable to protect Americans or other foreign subjects in case of riots, the navy will be pressed into service immediately. This was stated authoritatively today at the navy department.
