In addition TO the two men killed,
Major Tompkins reported one miss
ing. 1t is thought probable hero
that the missing man was the cou-
rier who, according 10 a message TO
the Mexican Embassy to-day from
General Obregon, was sent forward
~ notify the Parral authorities of
the approach Of the American troops
and who failed to arrive.
Major Tompkins's account Of the
action was received at General Fun
ston's headquarters tonight and
served to clarity General Pershing's
report received yesterday, in which
the identity of the attacking forca
was not stated and in which he left
the inference that the cavalry was
under Colonel w. c. Browne.
Americans now are north and west OF
Psrral, reinforced By a squadron OF the
10TH under Major Young, accompanied
by Colonel w. {. Brown, and a picked
squadron, under Major Robert J..
Howe
Fear for their safety has been dis
PEELED By this report and by troop dis
positions that General Pershing has
ordered, but the character OF which
General Funston did not wish TO re-
veal.
Major Tompkins's story Of the fight
indicates lack of control over the troops
By the commanding officer of the Par
raj garrison, General Lozano, and bit7

troops.
The fighting took place outside Of
Parral and was continued over route
Of eight miles 20 Santa Cruz, a station

Father Updike, firmly convinced

he had not asked Chief Lee TO hide
them
The chief dropped q hint during

Irving T-pdike. elder of the death
plOtters, might be rushed to tho

and this lent color to the belief that
