San Antonio, Texas, June 23-The
two troops of the Tenth Cavalry under
Captain Charles T. Boyd, practically
we're wiped out by the attack of Mex
lean forces under General Gomez at
Carrizal, June 81, according to in
formation given in fragmentary reports
received by General Funston from
General Pershing tonight.
General Pershing's message stated
that seven survivors in all, including
those who arrived last night, had
reached the main column. All were
enlisted men but the report did not say
whether there were non-commissioned
officers among them.
According to the story of the sur
vivors, as outlined in General PERISH
ings report, the mounted force of Mex
leans made a charge from the flank
at the conclusion of a parley between
General Gomez and Captain Boyd, at
the same time that a machine gun
opened fire from the front as General
Gomez reached his line.
Captain Boyd had ordered his men
to dismount as the machine gun opened
fire and the combined effect of the
Mexican charge, the machine gun fire
and the rifle fire from the Mexican gar
rison of Carrizal, which had almost
surrounded the little American force
under cover of the parley sought by
General Gomez to discuss whether
Captain Boyd should be allowed to
pass through the town, stampeded the
horses. No details were made kown
to General Pershing as to whether the
Mexican charge was checked.
Firing On Three Sides
Without their mounts, and without
means of escape, ringed about on three
sides with the fire of an overwhelming
force, the fate of the little detachment
is believed by officers here to have
been sealed 1t is feared that only
the most stupendous luck backed by
desperate valor, could have extricated
Captain Boyd's men from the trap.
The report from Mexican forces
placed the number of killed, including
two officers, at from IL to 40. 1t is
reported that II were taken as prison
ers into Chihuahua City.
The accepted percentage of wounded
to those killed in modern warfare
would place the wounded at from 35
to 40 at the lowest estimate. The
strength OF the two troops, G. and X,
is not known here, but it ms estimated
that they could not have exceeded 100
men, allowing for those sick and on de-
tached service.
With only seven survivors reported
as arriving at the main column the
number of men accounted for, at least
speculatively, is pitiably small.

MOrey Probably Among the Wounded

MOrey Probably Among the Wounded
FL Paso, Texas, June 23-Milltary
authorities in Eel Paso last night gem
orally reached the conclusion that the
officer referred TO as Captain Moore
and reported to have been wounded in
the action at Carrizal. was Captain
Lewis s. Morey. of Troop X, Tenth
Cavalry.
II was pointed out that If he was the
only surviving officer OF the command
his wounds may have prevented his
reporting to General Pershing immed.
lately.
General Pershing, according to his
report, had received no word from the
two battalions of the Eleventh Cavalry
which he had sent to rescue the rem
nants Of Captain Boyd's expedition. He
stated that he had taken no measure
TO support the squadron of the Elev-
enth.

Captain MOrey Dead or a Prisoner

Captain Mercy Dead or a Prisoner
Field Headquarters, Colonia Dublan
Chihuahua, via wireless to Columbus
n. NJ, June 23-That Captain Morey is
either dead or a prisoner was the the
conclusion reached here tonight when
no report had been received from any
OF the three officers who accompanied
the troops of the Tenth Cavalry en-
gagged at Carrizal Wednesday Mexi-
can reports said Captain Charles T.
Boyd and Lieutenant Henry Adair were
among the dead. Although sixty hours
have elapsed since the fight, the only
word of ii has been brought to General
Pershing by nine enlisted men who
struggled into camp yesterday.
These men all insisted that General
Gomez, the Mexican commander, and
Captain Boyd in parley apparently
were reaching an amicable conclusion
and that Immediately afterward the
Americans were led into a trap from
which the MeXicans opened fire upon
them with concealed machine guns.
None Of the stragglers reaching
here was able to give any information
as to the fate of the remnant of the SO
men composing the command.
