Troops Rush to Protect
Border at Marathon, Tex,

Ell PASO, Texas, July 1.-TWO bat
talions of Pennsylvania infantry, one
of the Second regiment and one of the
Tenth, broke camp here today and pre-
pared to entrain for Marathon. Texas.
1t was announced at military headquar-
tiers that the state troops hadd been or
dered to reinforce the border patrol in
the Big Bend district.
The orders followed closely reports
from the district that the Mexican ban
dts had raided the Lamula mine, an
American property, about one hundred
miles south of the border, and that resi-
dents along the frontier near Boquil-
las, Texas, feared the outlaws were
moving north. Belief was expressed in
military circles that IL was this band
that General Carranza referred to whom
he warned the state department that he
was informed that Villa bandits were
moving north from Jiminez with the
intention of attacking the American bor-
der.
Mexican authorities in Juarez said to-
day they were without information con-
corning the band, but assume If the re-
ports of the raiding of the mine are
correct it was done by one of the detach-
ments of the Villa band who scattered
after the recent attack upon Jiminez.

SENATE LEADERS Of BOTH
PARTIES AGREE TO HASTEN
Adjournment Before Septem-
Der May Result From To-
days Conference

ic and Republican senate leaders today
agreed on q program that promises ad-
journment of congress before September
/. The Republicans Will oppose but
will not filibuster on either the shipping
or revenue legislation.
The Democrats submitted and the Re-
publicans agreed to the following pro-
gram:
Appropriation bills and conference
reports, the revenue, shipping and cor
rupt practices bill.
In a secondary list the Democrats in
cluded child labor. woTkmen's compen-
sation and immigration bills, but they
were left for further conference and
eventually may be postponed until the
winter session.
The conferees also agreed on daily ses-
sions from 10 a. m. to 80 D. m. and the
senate later ratified the plan.
The attitude of Republicans indicated
that they, too, are anxious to get away.
There is less and less evidence that
they will resort to a filibuster on the
shipping or revenue bills, although both
will be fought vigorously. Democrats
hope none of the administrators big
measures will meet dilatory tactics.
Imperative legislation on the Demo-
cratic program is given as the army and
navy appropriation bills, the child labor
and corrupt practices measures and the
revenue bill.

Heavy Fighting in Progress
Says Report to Gen. Trevino
NV Assooiatad Prnss.N


CHIHUAHUA CITv, july 12-HeaVy
lighting is in progress between de facto
government troops under General Err
nesto Garcia and a large force of Villa
bandits at Cerro Blanco, a few miles
below ParraL according to dispatches
received today by General Jacinto Trev-
inc.
General Garcia reported that he was
engaged in holding the bandits until the
forces under General Natias Ramos and
General Domingo Arrieta, which are
proceeding from Jiminez, arrive.
General Hiliaro Rodriguez, one Of the
Villa leaders who Joined Canuto Reyes.
after surrendering to the de facto gov-
eminent a few months ago informed
General Trevino that he received per.
sonal letter from Villa, in which the
bandit chief pleaded with him to return
to his old allegiance and to join him
in resisting the Yankee invaders" This
letter was dated June Is at San Juan
Bautista.
In his communication to General Ire
vino, General Rodriguez stated he had
no sympathy with the efforts of Villa
to divide his country, and was deter
mined to aid the Carranza authorities
in restoring order.
CONDITIONS NEARLY NORMAL.
Plans for the improvement of economic
conditions are being made Dy the ror-
eign residents of this city, it was an
nounced today. The efforts have the
support of General Jacinto Trevino,
commanding the Carranza army of the
north who asserted that in his opinion
the real solution of the problem lies in
the resupmtion of the operation of the
mines, smelters and other Industries In
the state.
He pointed out that in this way the
government would be provided with ade-
quate revenue to carry on its functions
and that rowing men, who through lack
of work and resultant hunger have been
forced into a life of banditry. could be
given employment.
Americans who ned the city at the
beginning of the recent crisis between
the two nations are returning and near
ly all traces of anli-American senti-
ment have disappeared.
Numbers of foreigners including
Americans who have lived in the state
for years, express the belief that the
proffering of a plan which will quickly
revive the dormant Industries of north
ern Mexico would be the greatest help
the American government can render
