 RAIDS OVER BORDER
BOQUiLLAS ALSO RAlDED, PROB ABLY BY SAME BAND-MER-
 CHANT CARRIED OFF.
BANDITS LOOT THE TOWN
Three American Troopers Wounded at Glen Springs-One Civilian Miss ing-New Expedition Will Start
 From Fl Paso For Bandits.

Marathon, Texas.-The Columbus raid was repeated by former Carran- zista soldiers at Glen Springs, S5 miles south of Marathon, Texas, and Io miles north of the border. Three members of Troop A, Fourteenth cav. airy, and one civilian boy are known to have been killed. Three members of Troop A, which constituted the re- mainder of the cavalry detachment, were wounded
 A number of American civilians are said to be missing from the district.
 Practically the same band of Mexi- cans appeared at the store of J. Deemer, which is the source of sup plies for a small mining settlement 25 miles to the north. The store was footed. Deemer and his clerk, L. Me Coy, were made prisoners and carried back towards the border. They are both reported to have been killed
 The raiders appeared again at Bo- quillas, on the American side of the border, IS miles north of the Mexican town of Boquillas del Carmen. The seven employees of the International Mines Company sought refuge in the mine tunnels and were defending themselves against great odds when last heard from.
 The first report of the raids reach ed Maj.-Gen. Funston at Fl Paso through the representative of the h. ternational Mines Company. An ef- fort to get details was Immediately started and later complete report was received from John P Denny, manager of the mines company.
 This stated that the three dead sol diers and the one dead civilian boy had been brought to Marathon on a motor truck by two of the troopers who had been mortally wounded themselves. The soldiers killed were Privates Cohen, Coloe and Rodgers
 Within an hour after the receipt of the report from Denny Gen. Funston, with the approval of Gen. Hugh L. Scott, issued order for a new expedi- ton to start from Fl Paso The train got away at 6 D. m. It carried Troops A and B of the Eighth Cavalry. com manded by Maj. George T. Langhorne. Capt. George w Kirkpatrick and Capt. James c. Rhea.
 Gen Funston has issued orders that the Mexieans responsible for the rad must be captured or killed. No off cial statement has been given out, but it is known Col Sibley's orders de not contemplate that he end the pursuit when the border is reached.
 The circumstances of this raid have already nullified any possible effect the tentative agreement made be- tween Gen. Hugh L. Scott and Mexi- can Minister of War Obregon could have on the situation.

DUPONT by P. S. DUPONT and associ-
ates in a newspaper OF February 2S,
1915. He also told of attending a
meeting shortly afterwards. at the Of
flee of Alfred S. dupont, when the
purchase was discussed. The witness
said he was not a director of the COM
pany, and not very familiar at that
time with the situation, and, conse-
quently he took no active part in the
discussion at that time.
Mr.. DUPONT was next questioned as
to conferences he had with Francis
l. DUPONT, after reading of the sale Of
the stock. The witness testified that
previous to reading OF the sale OF the
stock, he was i'll with typhoid fever
for three months. and after that went
to Stone Harbor for the summer.
The cross-examination of Philip f.
DUPONT was based largely on the mat
ter OF retention of counsel. Congress-
man Graham queried the witness at
length on this line. He said he had
retained John G. Johnson as counsel,
but said no definite arrangement had
been made in the matter of a retainer.
The witness also said that he was not
a director of the company and was not
so familiar with the transactions. but
that he objected to the sale of T. G.
duPont's stock and had started the
suit thinking the others interested
would pay their share for counsel fees.
This testimony was drawn out at con-
siderable length.
AT this point Mr.. Glasgow, who was
conducting the examination for the
complainants' stated TO the court that
in the examination OF the books of
the companies, they found the de-
posits and daily balances IN all books
from where loans had been secured
for payment of the Il. c. dupont stock
with the exception OF the account of
the y. l. DUPONT de Nemours Powder
Company OF Pennsylvania, subsid-
larry company, in the Coal and Iron
National Bank of New York
Mr. Graham said the Pennsylvania
Company is not a defendant in this
case. and its books are in Scranton,
Pa.
Mr.. Glasgow remarked that he
thought the proceedings could be
shortened IL the other side would
furnish the information. 1--WE can
get at IT," he concluded.

ham.
John Wood. Jr, Of New York. a
public accountant, who verified the

but recess was taken before he

Delng made by the men to secure
more recruits so that the trip to tho

Two men are in the guard house,
one of whom is for refusing to obey
orders. He is suffering also from a
bruised head, the result of a blow

the effects of typhoid incubation.
The camp at the Rifle Range will be
abolished just as soon as camp is broken
by the militiamen and entrain for the
border. IL was at first thought that the
camp would be maintained and other re-
cruits reporting after the leaving of the
militia would be trained there until
qualified to join the infantry on the
border. For some time large quantities
OF supplies have been arriving at the
camp, and this gave reason for the be.
lief that the camp would be maintained
