The Situation is Admittedly Critical
Following Conference Be-
tween Scott and OBJ
RECON.
THE MEXICAN SITUATION
AGAIN LOOKS GRAVE
Carranza and U. S. Military Chiefs
End Conference Without
Reaching Agreement.

/ Washington, May 9.-The Presi-
dent today called out the National
guard in Texas, New Mexico and
Arizona with the instructions to re-
port to General Funston for border
patrol duty and four regular regi-
ments will proceed to the border at
once. The situation is admittedly
critical following the conference be-
tween General Scott and War Minis
ter Obregon. Oregon again de-
manded the immediate withdrawal
of all American soldiers in Mexico or
the possible attack on the eighteen
thousand troops in Mexico by thirty
FIVE thousand Carranzfsta forces may
result.
The Mexican ambassador told Sec
rotary Lansing today that the Mex
lean raid in the Big Bend country
was organized in Texas and that
trouble would follow unless the Unit
ed States troops were withdrawn
from Mexico.
Ell Paso, Tex, May yesterday
conference between Generals Scott
and Funston and General Obregon,
Mexican minister Of war, and Juan
Amahod, subsecretary of foreign af-
fairs ended late yesterday without
an agreement having been reached.
1t was indicated, however, that eff
forts to effect an understanding re-
garding the status Of the American
troops in Mexico had not been aban-
doned and that another conference
would be held.
Yesterdays meeting took place in
General Scots private car, on the
American side. When or where the
next meeting would be held was not
disclosed
When General Oregon returned
ito Juarez in his touring car he was
asked:
SIS the conference ended?"
He smiled, shrugged his shoulders,
and replied:
ut is just beginning"
In Ell Paso last night the feeling
grew that the situation had taken
on added gravity following the ban
dit raid in the Big Bend district. 1t
was reported on good authority that
most OF yesterdays conference had to
do with the raid and the steps to be
taken to dispense bandit groups in
northern Coahuila.
New demands were presented to
the Mexican representatives, it was
said, which would include the CO.
operation of the Mexican and Ameri-
can troops in districts not hitherto
touched in the negotiations.
Whatever the reply of the Mexis
can minister of war it was evident
that he wished to gain more time.
The conference began at 4:55 PIN.
and ended in just an hour and fifteen
minutes. Last night more tele-
graphic conversations between Cen
eral Obregon and General Carranza
at the provisional capital took place.
