ance were shipped from the arsenal

authorized by Secretary of War Baker
to make all necessary purchases, so
that National Guardsmen may be fully
equipped forthwith.

ALL VILLA TROOPERS
JOINING MEXICO ARMY
Former Generals Under Bandit
Hasten to Ally Themselves
With the Carranzistas.

FL Paso. Texas, June 27.-Villa
troops, Villa Generals. and former
enemies of Villa are flocking to the
Mexican colors. Two troop trains
have arrived in Chihuahua from the
Laguna district with 1000 former
Villa soldiers under Generals c., .exico
Contreras and Canuto Reyes. They
have Joined the Carranza troops in
Chihuahua City and received the best
barracks in the state capital. and are
cheered every time they drill or ap-
pear on the streets. Another train is
expected in Chihuahua with the COM
mand Of General Ysabel Robles, an
other Villa General, who surrenderd
the state OF Chihuahua to Consul An
dres Garcia for the Carranza govern
ment. Many other minor Villa leaders
are Joining the CarranZa troops in
Chihuahua City and are being sent to
the field near Villa Ahumada. This
news was brought to the border by
at Parrel. but who came out with the
last party OF Americans.
They were in Chihuahua City when
the former Villa troops marched from
the Mexican Central station to the
barracks. He said the demonstration
in their honor was as great as when
Villa rode into Chihuahua the first
time. and there were a number of
shouts Of viva Villa!" heard in the
crowd.
The return of Villa to take com.
mand OF his former troops is being
frequently predicted by his friends,
who insist he is not dead. but has been
hiding in the mountains of Durango.
They say Villa will take this opporun.
ity Of wreaking his vengeance on the
United States, and that he will be re-
ceived with acclamation by the Car
rama Government and the Mexican
people.

But IL they are going to attack our
men without cause he said, there is
only one thing to do. We will never
have peace down there until we use
force enough to compel it,"
There is reason to believe that the
military situation may be influencing
the Administration diplomatic course,
as we'll as the desire to make it clear
to the world and particularly to the

1t may be four or five days, how
ever, before War Department officials
would feel safe in withdrawing regu.
lars from the border patrol to form
the cutting edge of whatever force
they may hurl to the support of Gen
eral Pershing's column, should aggres

1t seems doubtful that formal dip

sible. particularly as it has been indi.
Gated that quick, drastic action, is
President Wilson's desire should Gen.
eral Carranza force the use Of the
army against him.
Mr.. Wilson's visitors sought light
on these questions. Specific figures
were not available as to the garrisons
at various border towns, the number
OF guardsmen who have responded tc
the Presidents call, or the time that
would be required to get the entire
force to the border These details
have been LEFT to the War Department
and Secretary Baker was not present
at the conference. The general stu
alton was presented, however, and
there is reason to suppose that the For.
eign Affairs Committeeman approved
the Presidents course
No Talk Of Mediation.
One fact as to the conference is
significant. There was no discussion
OF the possibility of mediation. The
subject was not mentioned either by
the President or his callers, Senator
Stone said
This statement came in the face of
formal notification to Eliseo Are
dondo, Mexican ambassador designate
by his government, that it approved
the principle OF mediation as pro
posed by seceral Latin-American
countries. Mr.. Arrendondo expected
early authorization to begin conversa
tiops with his in-American col
Leagues here, in an effort to divert
the crisis to peaceful channels.
There was no indication that any
diplomat had attempted to sound Sec
rotary Lansing in this respect.
II Is known, however, that he
holds that the United States has moth
ing to mediate since its only object
is the protection OF its own borders
He has formally notified all Latin
American diplomats that the Washing
ton government has no aggressive pur
pose toward Mexico, but is resolved
TO free its citizens along the border
OF the danger OF bandit raids.
