fRr Te,,zr.nh 70 TNs Tnhune

McAlleii, Tex, Sept. 20.-When
George Bullard, an Oklahoma cowboy,
came 10 the Mexican border it was for
fight and not frolic. He fretted
daily in the mule camp Of the New
York division, because the mules he
handled in the pack train were never
called into action.
To-day bullets began 10 whistle
around his head. The first one cut the
bride rain off between his hands and
the mules mouth as he rode il toward
Hidalgo. A second one started blood
squirting from the mules mouth. A
third sliced hole in Billiards trousers
pocket, and a fourth started trickle
Of blood down his right arm.
Il was all a war" mistake. Some
body had issued ball cartridges in
stead of blank cartridges to squad
ron Of the 1st Cavalry, which was IN
action as a "Red" army of Mexican
bandits seeking to gain the Hidalgo
ferry before the New York troops
could intercept them.
Whistles blew in all directions as
the word got around that the mule
train was turning up real casualties
from bullets. Colonel II. II. Band
holtz. chief of staff, sent an inspector
70 see the wounded muleteer.
Bullard Liked IL.
That fellow Bullard is the gamest
man ! ever saw" reported the inspector.

NORWAY AND SWEDEN
ALLIED IN SECRET PACT
Bound Never to War on Each
Other, Says Premier.

London, Sept. 20.-Norway and
Sweden are bound By secret agree
ment never 70 enter the war against
each other. This statement was made
to-day by Premier Knudsep of Nor
wav in an interview in Christiania.
The Premier said that the two coun-
tries had entered into the pact in
August, 1914. when il seemed almost
certain that they would be drawn into
the European whirlpool.
The ministers of the Scandinavian
nations, in conference at Christisnia.
met at dinner to-day. a. which King
Haakon Of Norway declared the three
countries were united in their deter
mination to remain neutral. He added
that the conferences, the outgrowth Of
the earlier meeting OF the three rulers,
had for their sole purpose the protec-
tion Of Scandinavian interests.

MEXICAN THREAT
FOR WILSON NOW
CarranZa Plans to End
Conference if Per-
shing Remains.
From The Tribune Bureau


Washington, Sept. 20.-Action by
General Carranza that will result in
breaking up the New London confer
ence is expected unless the commission
agrees without further delay to plan
for the withdrawal of the Pershing ex-
pedition from Mexico. Information re-
ceived to-day by The Tribune from
high official quarters was that the
Mexican government was becoming
more and more convinced that the Ad-
ministration was using the New
London conference as screen 1or
political propaganda and that the
promise Of the United States TO decide
first the question of withdrawing the
troops was not made in good faith:
From what is known OF General Car
ranzas present attitude 1t Is almost
certain, officials declare, that he VIII
demand a showdown BY the American
commissioners. He realizes that the
Administration is determined that the
commission, on which so much has been
staked, shall not be dissolved without
having accomplished something.
The time 10 strike, then, from the
Mexican point of view, is before cleo
ton, and il is expected Carranza will
make the most of his present oppor-
tunity 20 force the Administration to
show it's hand. Unless some assurance
is given looking to a prompt retire
ment from Mexican soil the recall OF
the Mexican commissioners is believed
almost certain to follow.
The chief hesitancy Of the Admins
tration over Withdrawing the troops IS
due to the fear that another border
massacre before election day might
make il necessary TO start again from
the beginning, sending Pershing a sec
ond time into Mexico 20 destroy the
bandits whom MS first expedition, II is
claimed, eliminated. This, it is ad-
mitted, would be fatal TO Democratic
hopes, and therefore the troops will be
kept in Mexico, if the commissioners
can negotiate it, until very close to
election day at least.
New London, Conn, Sept 20.-Until
an official account Of the reported at
tack on Chihuahua By Villa forces is
received by the Mexican-American joint
commission, its members will not enter
into any agreement on plan for the
maintenance of peace on the border, 1t
was learned tonight.
The American commissioners con-
ferred at length late to-day with Coun-
sellor Polk of the State Department
Before the conference the American
representatives spread before the Mex
ican commissioners a mass of docu-
mentary evidence relating TO conditions
in Mexico. This action was somewhat
in the nature Of rebuttal to information
that had been offered By the Mexicans.
The reports Of the Mexican repre-
sentatives have been calculated to de-
pict rapidly recovering country and
to Offset stories that credited the gov
eminent authorities in various locali-
ties with lack of control and efficiency.

QUARANTINE BAN
D0DGED BY 14TH
GuardSmen Return and
Are Allowed to Go
to Their Homes.

Rubbing arms still little sore from
vaccination against paratyphoid, but a
happy and husky lot, the 14th Regi-
ment, home from border duty, marched
with band playing into the armory IN
Eighth Avenue, between 14th and 10Th
streets. Brooklyn, last night.
Regiment Is Guaranteed.
The regiment has been placed under
quarantine. which, according to Colonel
John II. Foote, may last a week and
may last az long as a month. II is a
quarantine however, that is not quar-
entine, for the officers are inclined 70
look upon the fear Of incipient typhold
as more or less Of joke.
The men were permitted TO 60 to
their homes last night, with instruc-
tions to keep away from the members
of their families as much as possible
and TO report at the armory at ~
10 o'clock this morning.
According to the officers the guards
men probably will be permitted to stay
at home nights and spend their days
At the armory until the ban is lifted
bv the army medical officers
The regiment arrived from Camp
Whitman. where thew have been for the
last ten days, at l:30, and were met al
Sixtieth Street and the North RIVER by
Major General Daniel Appleton, MAJOR
Charles Elliot Warren and Lieutenant
Charles Lehman. They marched to
the subway and boarded trains for the
Atlantic Avenue station in Brooklyn
There they were met by the regiment
band, which did not go to the border'
and a large crowd of citizens friehdS
and relatives, and the reception COM
,oittee. headed BY Borough President

distance By files of policemen, tramped
The sidewalk at their sides. Not kiss

Some Of the men brought back rae

s,ories Of escapes from tarantulas' the

fabulous prices for watermelonS, 'ne

on. and the strenuous hikes they hao
been forced TO take.
"A. q whole, the regiment is IN good

Bulgars in resources and men.
The official reports from Sofa and
Berlin make much OF the defeat in

rR, c.hl. % Ths Tribun. ]

London, Sept. 20.--The Allied armies
in the Balkans experienced a day Of
successes and reverses to-day.
The Russian and Rumanian army in
the Dobrudja rallied and checked the
advance Of Mackensen's forces south
Of the Constanza-Cernavoda railway.
where a desperate battle is now raging
The Serbs, supported by French and
Russian troops on their left wing,
forged ahead in Western Macedonia,
Selling the crest OF the Kajmackalan
ridge, dominating the Cerna River
plain. and sweeping forward, according
10 unofficial reports, to within six miles
OF Morastir.
In Eastern Macedonia. along the
Struma Valley. the Bulgars thrust the
Italians back and recaptured four viii
lagos.
In Transylvanis the Rumsnians suf-
fered another reverse. The Austrians
in a furious attack drove King Ferdi-
rand's troops out of Petroseny and
back through the Szurduk Pass. fifty
miles southwest Of Hermannstsdt.
Mackensen's Advance Halted.
OF these different phases Of the Bal
kan battle. observers here regard as
most important in its effect the hating
of the German Bulgarian army OF in
vasion in the Dobrudia and the final
resumption Of the offensive in this sec
tor by the Cars troops and their Ru
manian allies. Heavily reinforced. the
Allied troops took up their position on
a line running almost parallel TO the
Constanza- Cernavoda railroad and some
twenty miles TO the south of il.
The sharpest fighting centred about
Enigea, where the Bulgars attempted
TO crumple in the centre and right
flank of Zaintchikowskys forces. Not
only we're the invaders stopped short
in their assault. but they were even
driven back beyond the positions from
WnlCn lHe1 Hhu huiitu eht4i h"''NN
columns.
Constanza Railway Safe.
Apparently the important railroad
which runs through to Bucharest from
the Black Sea at Constsnzs, and offers
at Cernavods the only accessible ap-
proach into Rumania from the Do
brudja, i. safe for the present. The
Allied forces proved themselves su-
perior to the enemy to-day, and while
their strength can be increased each
day that of the attacking army can at
best remain only stationary. Macken-
sen can call upon only as many men as
are now under his command, and with
each fresh attack his forces are dimin-
ishing. The much heralded drive
against the Cernavoda bridgehead, with
the purposed subsequent invasion OF
Rumsnia, seems doomed to failure.
Hardly less important are the con-
tinued successes in Macedonia of the
Allied troops, whose objective is
Monastir and the whole valley of the
Cerna. The Serbians are now in pos
session of the lofty ridge dominating
the plains before Monsstr from the
west.
