EDITORIAL COMMENT

The sudden drop in the price Of
wheat is likely to prove disastrous
to most of the grain buyers. The
inability to get cars for shipment
has forced most of the buyers to
get caught with full houses.

STRAGG[ERS Tell =.
OF ATTACK UPON
AMERICAN TROOPS
EARLY REPORT FROM ,PERsHING
is THAT CARRiZAL FIGHT WAS
UNPROVOkED.

| San Antonio, Tex, June 23.-Gen
J Funston awaited today further details
from Gen. Pershing of the Carrizal at
tack by a greatly superior force OF
! Mexicans under Gen. Felix Gomez on
Troops G and X of the tenth U. s.
cavalry under Capt. Charles Boyd.
Gen. Pershing's report, received at
; headquarters last night, was based on
the stories of several stragglers, who
had made their way back to the main
column. They said the attack was
entirely unprovoked and was made af.
ter the Mexican force had partly
surrounded the Americans under cover
Of parley between Gen. Gomez and
Capt. Boyd. 1t was not until after
the Mexicans had opened fire with a
machine gun on the American troopers
that Capt. Boyd dismounted his com
mand and returned the fire.
Conference Wanted.
The stragglers reported to Gen.
Pershing that the forces under Capt.
Boyd and Capt. Lewis S. Morey joined
at Oko, Santo Domingo, on June 20,
and proceeded together toward Car
rizal, arriving within a mile Of that
Boyd, the senior commander, ordered
a halt at that point and sent courier
into Carrizal, asking permission OF
the Mexican commander to pass
through the town. This permission
was refused, according to the courier,
but while he was making his report a
messenger arrived from Gen. Gomez
with word that the American troops
would be allowed to pass through,
provided Capt. Boyd would stop within
the town for parley. ..#
'~ Open With Machine Gun.
Before Capt. Boyd had dispatched an
answer to this message, Gen. Gomez
himself. rode out to meet the Ameri-
can commander, accompanied by staff
members. While they were talked, a
large number Of the Mexican garrison
poured out Of the town and began to
crowd toward the American forces
from all sides. ..
Capt. Boyd, according to the report,
protested emphatically against this
movement. What reply Gen. Gomez
made was not known by the returning
troopers but Gen. Gomez retired to-
ward his own lines. The moment he
reached his men the Mexicans opened
fire with machine gun. Capt. Boyd
Immediately dismounted his men, de-.
ployed them as skirmishers and re-
turned the fire. There the story of
stragglers ends.
