Capt. Lewis S. Morey was at the head
Of Troop X. Gen. Funston calls atten-
tion TO the fact that reports from Mexican
sources are that the commanding officer
was killed and that Capt Morey. COM
manding Officer, was killed. As Boyd was
actually in command it became uncer-
tain whether he or Morey fell.
Persh!ns stated that both he and the
commanding officer OF the Tenth Cavalry,
Maj. Ellwood Evans. had instructed
Boyd carefully that he was on a recon-
rotering trip solely. and was to be
scrupuously careful to ,oid any clash
with Cara anzigtas.
He repeats this by way of expressing
his conviction that Boyd was in no
manner the aggressor. Gen. Funston

Due to this situation. another clash be-

Gen. Bell has further advices that the
total strength of the American detach-

port has inspired the hope that the cas-
ualties among the Americans as an
nounced by the Mexicans were greatly
exaggerated. According to the Mexican
report the Americans lost twelve killed
and seventeen taken prisoners. The Mexi-
cans admitted that fourteen OF their own
