ORDERS ALL MILITIA
 RUSHED TO BORDER
President and Cabinet Discuss Crises, But Pending Receipt of Final Reports, No Course is Mapped Out.

Washington, June 23.-National guard organizations throughout the country were straining every nerve tonight to prepare for active service on the Mexican border. New orders flashed over the wires by Secretary Baker bore a call for haste. Red tape was cast aside and authorization given under which the state soldiers will be rushed to re-enforce the bor- der guards at the earliest possible moment. The entire army of 100000 men summoned by President Wilson's call was placed directly at Gen. Fun stOn's disposal.
 Congress also took vigorous action. A resolution adopted in the House by a vote of 332 to declares that an emergency calling for the use of troops in addition to the regular army now exists and authorizes the presi- dent to draft immediately into the service of the United States all mem bers of the national guard who sub scribe to the new oath for that ser vice. In effect, the measure gives legislative approval of President Will sons call on state soldiers and pro- vides for their use in or out of the United States.
 The Senate probably will pass the resolution tomorrow.
 Diplomatic aspects of the crisis virtually were unchanged. President Wilson could reach no final decision as to action resulting from the attack by Mexican troops upon American cavalrymen at Carrizal or upon Amer ican bluejackets at Mazatlan.
 Only Preliminary Reports.
 Only preliminary report on the Carrizal clash came from Gen. Per shing during the day. It was based on the statements of stragglers and no word had come from officers of the shattered detachment. The last word on the Mazatlan incident will follow a full report from Admiral Winslow, commanding the Pacific fleet who has been ordered to the scene to make a personal investigation.
 Only preliminary reports on each incident have been received from war and naval officials, transmitted as matters of information. When the record is complete formal accounts will be submitted to Secretary Lam sing and the action of the United States then will be determined
 Evidence now in hand is believed to be sufficient to show that Carranza sympathizers or officials probably will be held responsible in both cases. In- dications are that the Washington government will stand on the reports of it's own officers and refute the as sertions of the Mexican government officially presented here that Ameri- cans were the aggressors, or that ire sponsible individuals precipitated the

SELECTS SUCCESSOR DEPUTY
 SUPT. PUBLIC INSTRUCTION

Little Rock, June 24.-George B. Cook, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, announces that he has se- lected the successor to Ray Gill as Deputy Superintendent He will not make known his identity, however, until some time next week MT Gill has been elected Secretary of the Fort Smith Board of Trade, and will take charge of his new office July 1. He has been with Mr Cook during the four terms the latter has been State Superintendent. and to his indefatig- able efforts is due much of the ad- vancement that has been witnessed in school affairs of the state during the last eight years.
 clash. It was thought probable to- night that the president would de- mand that Carranza repudiate the acts and punish those responsible.
 MT Wilson and his cabinet dis cussed the Mexican crisis fully today, but pending the receipt of final re- ports on the occurrences at Carrizal and Mazatlan, no course could be mapped out.

ONLY SEVEN OF U. $.
 CALVALRY SURVIVED
Gen. Pershing Has Received No Official Word of Cause Fight Reported Americans Were Led Into Pitfall.

Fl Paso, Texas, June 23.-All wo- men and children have been ordered out of Juarez by Gen. Francisco Con zales, the garrison commander, in an- ticipation of a fight with Gen. Bells forces tonight. The movement has already started.
 Many of the women have endeav- ored to cross to the American side, but only those who are known to the i'm migration authorities are being al lowed to pass. The greatest exodus is in the direction of the hills in the rear of the Mexican town.
 Fl Paso, Texas, June 23.-The Mex lcan government states that fully million men have offered to take up arms in defense of their country since the crisis with Washington came to head, according to a dispatch from Mexico City to the consulate here to- day.
 San Antonio, Texas, June 23.-The two troops of the Tenth cavalry un- der Capt. Charles T. Boyd practically were wiped out by the attack of Mexi can forces under Gen. Felix Gomez at Carrizal June 21, according to indica- tions given in a fragmentary report received by Gen. Funston from Gen. Pershing tonight.
 Gen. Pershing's message stated that seven survivors in all, including those who arrived last night, have reached the main column. All were enlisted men, but the report did not say whe- ther there were noncommissioned of ficers among them.
 According to the stories of the sur vivors, as outlined in Gen. Pershings report, mounted force of Mexicans made a mounted charge from the flank at the conclusion of a barley be- tween Capt. Boyd and Gen. Gomez at the same time machine gun opened fire from the front as Gen. Gomez reached his lines.
 Capt Boyd had ordered his men to dismount as the machine gun opened fire and the combined effect of the Mexican charge, the machine gun fire and the rifle fire from the Mexican garrison of Carrizal, which had almost surrounded the little American force under cover of the barley sought by Gen. Gomez to discuss whether Capt. Boyd should be allowed to pass through the town, stampeded the horses.
 With their mounts gone, caught without means of escape, ringed about on three sides with the fire of an overwhelming force, the fate of the little detachment is believed by off cers here to have been sealed. It is feared that only the most supendous luck, backed by desperate valor could have extricated Capt. Boyd's men from the trap,
 With but seven survivors reported as arriving at the main column, the number of those unaccounted for, at least speculatively, is pitifully small.
