II was thought, might be given at
today's cabinet meeting.
This cabinet meeting promised to
be historic. There is reason to be-
lieve that President Wilson will
meet his advisers today with his
mind made up that withdrawal OF
the United States from Mexico Ia
essential TO the humanitarian pur-
poee for which they were sent into
the country There In reason also
to believe this view Il not shared
by several OF his cabinet officers.
The most likely outcome seen was
a determination OF the basis on
which the withdrawal should be
brought about.
Ground for expectation OF this
action was laid by the president
las might, when. forced by the
events yesterday. he turned an ad-
dress TO Democratic leaders into
this challenge:
Have you the courage TO come
out ,"
That sentence sent several hun.
dred banqueters away puzzled and
they are looking TO today's develop
ments 10 clear the presidents mean
ing II II meant the president pro-
posed TO withdraw the United States
troops, there was marked indication
last night. when. forced by the
ton In his own party. His speech
itself at this point drew smaller
enthusiasm than IL had drawn al
many points probably less .signifi
cant. Cabinet of,cials. senate and
house leaders present. later refused
| to interpret the challenger urged
| the belief that II was without signifl-
canoe IN the Mexican situation.
But IL was the phrase that every
man present apparently had ring
| ing In his ears.
That the president recognizes q
/ fight within his own ranks may de.
velop was believed shown by two
other sentences:
Frankly. gentlemen. am not in
! terested in personal ambitions. May
I not admit even In this company
that am not enthusiastic over mere
party success7"
Forecast OF the sacrifice he may
anticipate BY such a course was read
In an earlier declaration in his
speech.

much as slightly broken over the
heads of q population which has al
ways been directed oy a board OF
trustees. I make up my mind that
will trust not only my arm. but my
heart In the aperture and that only

A supposedly Villista band de-
feated by the American troops al

ward Parral. an official Mexican re-
port stated.
The victorious United States cav

against them at high pitch in
Parral The clash between the
Mexican mob and the American de-
tachment followed on Wednesday.
Reports weer also received OF Vii
listas and independent bandits be
tween the American advance and
the San Antonio (Mexico) base OF
the United States expedition. One
party OF 200 bandits attacked a
cattle train only three miles from
Parral This force may have been
among the Mexicans who fought the
American troops in the streets OF

back on Parral. The de facto troops
at FL Vale were also beaten by
the guerrillas.

critical, II was admitted here. The
question OF whether the Carranza
soldiers took part in the fighting
against the Americans in Parral
was regarded as the most important
phase TO be cleared up In the await
ed Official advices from Gen. Perish
ing. The Mexican account posted
In Juarez today stated that civilians
attacked the United States troops
who entered Parral by mistake. No
mention was made OF any deaths or
injury to Mexicans. the Carranza

considered strongly anti-American
When Carranza Consul Gercin
was reminded of his recent claim
that the inhabitants OF Parral had
been disarned weeks ago, he re-
piled that the citizens hid out"
guns and ammunition

dierr. who opposed the entry OF the
American troops into Parral and
who fired on the United States sol.
dfers." Garcia declared
Other reports. however, stated
that the oficers Of the Parral gar
