make no request for a loan at the
present time, according to prominent
man in touch with the Treasury De-

connection with the possibility that
Luis Cabrera, Secretary Of the Treas

cial groups on the coming visit OF the
Mexican delegates to the United States
Mexican joint conference, Of whom he
is one
1t is asserted that the Mexican gov
eminent is not going TO ask for loan
at the present time, but there is no IN
dication that Senior Cabrera would be
unwilling to consider any proposals
American fnanciers might make.
The Mexican newspapers on July
printed story TO the effect that a
group of New York bankers had offered
to loan the CsrTanza government a
large sum of money, and recent reports
in the United States were TO the effect
that American bankers might go to the
aid of the de facto government. In
Wall Street the belief prevailed that If
the American government offered no
objections there would be no difficulty
in floating a large loan in the United
States.

tonight on the Mexican side of the
Rio Grande, about thirteen miles be-
low Ysleta, Tex. which is about
twelve miles east of here, according to
reports TO American military head

confirmed, said that in an effort to
elude the Carranza cavalry pursuing
him, Tames, who yesterday was re-
ported near Samalayuca. had made MS
way north and east toward Zaragosa'
almost opposite Ysleta, but that he
had announced he did not intend to
raid the American frontier.
His band. it was stated, has been
greatly augmented in the last
twenty-four hours by recruiting
among the poems and desertions from
the Juarez garrison. Governmental
