Druuoist's Hard Luck.

An amateur pOultryman received a
shipment of fancy perfume atomizers
for the holiday trade.
After he had tried few on his
friends and had arranged the stock on
the shelves he went home to say good
night to his hens and to gather what
eggs had been laid during the day.
He reached into one nest and felt
fur, which turned out to be fur Of a
genuine willow pussy In the full flush
and vigor of young pussyhood.
He says he didn't mind his expert
ence in the chicken coop half so much
as he does the foolish comments of
business acqualntances who keep talk
Ing about "faunal atOmlzers."

To Organize Guardsmen
Into Tactical Units

San Antonio, Tex, July 12.-Army
officers here were convinced to-day
that the coming of General Tasker II:
Bliss, assistant chief of staff, would
result in organization of the National
Guardsmen into tactical units. Flfty
thousand of the state troops are near
the border, but, with the exception OF
the divisions from New York and Penn
sylvania, the big addition to the Fed
sral army is listed in units from bri.
gades to companies. General Bliss Will
make a study of this service, and Will
supervise the concentration of the scat
tered units on a divisional basis.
Such action is in line with the sug-
gestion of General Funston, who rec
commended to the War Department a
few weeks ago the division of the
border command into three parts, each
to be commanded by major general.
Strengthening of the border patrols,
especially that in the big bend district,
was well under way to-day. Two bat
talions of Pennsylvania infantry, from
FL Paso, and one squadron of Texas
cavalry, at Laredo, were prepared to
move to Marathon, whence they will be
sent to the Rio Grande. Four COM
panies of engineers were sent to
Brownsville, Laredo and Eagle Pass.
A searchlight company, one OF the
army's more recent acquisitions, also
left to-day for border service.
Reports from General Pershing and
from commanding officers along the
border indicate no material changes In
the international relations.
New-York tribune., 1916-07-13

mands "that the Committee on Inter
state and Foreign Commerce conduct
an inquiry for the purpose OF deter
mining the cause and fixing the respon-
sibility for the failure Of the railroads
to provide adequate and proper accom-.
modations to transport the National
Guard Of New York to the Mexican
border, and that the committee recon-
mend to Congress such remedies as may
be deemed fit to prevent a recurrence
Of the conditions described, and pun
ishment of the person or persons re-
sponsible for them"
Immediate organization Of an extcn-
sive National Guard recruiting service
was authorized to-day by the War De-
partment TO bring regiments on border
duty up to full war strength Of about
one hundred and sixty thousand men,
With nearly fifty thousand regulars on
border duty, the government would
have two hundred and ten thousand
men or more engaged in protecting the
line.
Three officers will be assigned to the
recruiting service for each regiment or
dered to the front. Each separate bat
TALON, company, battery or other unit
will have one officer. The adjutant
generals of the respective states will
supply the names Of officers for TINS
duty.
Recruiting has been made necessary
because all unfit men and those with
dependents are to be discharged as rap
idly as possible.

Railroads Blamed
for Troops Woes
From The Tribune Buresu.l

Washington, July 12.--An investiga-
ton of alleged unnecessary hardships
undergone by New York soldiers on
their way to the border was demanded
in the House to-day by Representative
Smith, of New York, who offered a
resolution reciting:
"The railroad facilities provided for
transporting the National Guard OF tho
State Of New York to the Mexican bor-
der are said to have been indescribably
bad, three men being compelled in
many instances to occupy one seat. and
no sleeping accommodation Of any
kind having been furnished, except for
the officers of the regiments.
"Great suffering has resulted from
the failure Of the railroads to provide
suitable and necessary equipment TO
meet the requirements Of the situa-
ton. =,
Sufficient time was given the rail-
roads TO provide an adequate number
of cars and TO supply at least the ordi-
nary comforts of travel to the mem
bers of the New York National Guard
on their way to the border to protect
American lives and property"

u. s. AND MEXICO
NEAR AGREEMENT
Administration Sees Hope
of Settlement Within
a Short Time.
lFrom The Tribune Bureau1

Washington, July 12.-Promise OF an
agreement with General Carranza
within a few days was held out in Ad-
ministration quarters tonight after a
conference between Acting Secretary OF
State Polk and Ambassador Designate
Arredondo. No details Of the proposed
agreement were divulged, the confer
rees agreeing that piecemeal discussion
of the terms might jeopardize the sue
cess of the negotiations.
The cardinal points on which the gov
ernments insist and which must be met
in the agreement are:
The United States demands complete
protection for American lives and prop
erty along the Mexican border.
General Carranza insists on full rec
ognition of Mexican sovereignty.
Both Mr. Polk and Mr.. Arredondo
said the negotiations were progressing
"most satisfactorily" Mr.. Arredondo
it is understood, has full powers from
his government to conclude an agree
ment on any terms that respect Mex
ico's sovereignty.
Two Solutions Suggested.
Two possible solutions Of the prob,
lem were suggested to-day in informed
quarters. One provides for the gradual
withdrawal of Pershing's expedition at
least to within few miles of the line
with a thorough policing Of the border
on both sides to prevent new raids, and
an agreement for the pursuit Of ban
dts. The other provides for the ap'
pointment of joint commission to in
vestigate and report a plan of settle
ment to be ratified by both govern
ments. Both plans, it is said, are &C
ceptable to Carranza, and the latter
plan. at least, is believed TO have the
approval Of President Wilson.
Administration officials refuse to say
whether the President will insist or
keeping Pershing in Mexico as a pro
lection to the American border. The
impression gained ground to-day that
he might yield on this point and with
draw the troops if suitable guarantees
were given by Mexico and if permission
was granted to recross into Mexico IN
case Of another raid.
New-York tribune., 1916-07-13

all former supporters in the parrai
country. An attempt to-day made oy
General Ernesto Garcia with a large
force of Carranza troops to dSsperse
the Villistas at Sombretillo proved q
failure, the Villistas defeating Garcias
force and driving il into Parral IN dis
order.
Tonight /. Is reported that the villa
army. constantly augmented, has moved
to within a few miles Of Parral and an
attack on the town within a few hours
is anticipated. Carranza reinforce
ments, ordered by General Trevino to
20 to the relief Of the Carranza troops
in Parral. have failed 10 reach there.
IL is said Villa has cut off the Car
ranzistas sent from Chihuahua and has
induced the Durango forces to join
him.
