WASHINGTON, D. C., July D. The crisis in the Mexican trouble was passed today when Senor Are dondo, the Mexican ambassador, de livered to Secretary of State Ian sing the reply of President Carranza to the ultimatum sent by the United States. The reply was friendly and conciliatory and was free from su- perfluous diplomatic language, The note points to the release of the American troops captured at Car rizal as the best evidence of the desire of the de facto government to avoid an open break or declara- tion of war between the United States and Mexico.
 It gives the United States every assurance that the de facto govern ment will employ every effort to prevent such incidents as will az gravate the situation, and expresses the hope that the United States will do likewise.
 The note says that Carranza. is willing to hear all suggestions GOV ering the two questions, namely, the withdrawal of the American troops from Mexico and for the proper pro lection of the border
 Officials in this city stated tonight that a further exchange of views on the question would probably follow. Carranza troops have taken en- | trenched positions in the hills sur rounding Guaymas, the northern most seaport of Mexico on the west coast and will resist any attempt of Admiral Winslow, of the Pacific fleet of the United States, to land marines, according to dispatches from Guaymas All of the supplies of the city have been dismantled and the

No Am erfcans were killed as far as can be ascertained now.
 Starving Mexican women yesterday stormed the palace of the governor of San Luis Potosi, according to reports received today by General Pershing DuIina the riots the women shouted "Viva Gringoes." |" Stones were hurled at the palace and it was with difficulty that they were driven away. Reports from other sections of the country il di- cate that there are food riots go- ing on daily in many places.
 Dispatches from Washington state that Secretary of War Baker has authorized all of the commanders of the national guard to discharge all married men and allow them to return to their homes immediately. The Mexican situation looks much
 
 brighter and it is not believed that the national guard will be needed, President Wilson has announced his intention to accept the proposals of President Carranza relative to he differences between Mexico and the United States and the trouble will be settled by negotiations between the two countries and not by media tion, as was suggested by representa- t.r-s of the Latin-AmeTcan republics

DANGERS OF DRAFT

Drafts feel best when we are
hot and perspiring, just when
they are most dangerous and the
result is Neuralgia, Stiff Neck,
Sore Muscles or sometimes an
attack of Rheumatism. In such
cases apply Sloan's Liniment.
1t stimulates circulation to the
sore and painful part. The
blood flows freely and in a short
time the stiffness and pain
leaves. Those suffering from
Neuralgia or Neuralgia Head
ache will find one or two appli-
cations of Sloan's Liniment will
give grateful relief. The agon-
izing pain gives way to a tingling
sensation of comfort and
warmth and quiet rest and sleep
is possible. Good for Neuritis
too. Price 25c. at your Drug
