SAN ANTONIO. Texas. April 10
The Americans on whom the Mexi-
cans at ParraI fred we're unarmed

Of the incident current in Chihua-

troopers entered Parral. presumably

mainder retreated TO the main body
Of troops encamped outside the city.
The attacking force pursued them
and were met by a fire from the
Americans. who were using a ma
chine gun. killing 40 Mexicans.
According 10 this story. the attack
ing party comprised Carranza sol
diers and civilians.
This report OF the Parral incident
was sent by Consul I,etcher from
Chihuahua TO Gen. Bell at FL Paso.
who forwarded it to Gen Funston.
Full allowance was given by depart

Many Of the officers. at headquar-

affair as more probable than some
Of the versions which have come out
OF Mexico. II was pointed out that
in previous cases soldiers had enter
ed towns for the purpose OF buying
supplies and had been received in a
friendly manner by the residents,
and that. if they had gone into Par

that they went unarmed.

FL PASO Texas. April f5.-The
mystery as to what really happened
at ParraI. where American troops
are reported to have FLASHED with
Memcans wednesday, became more
battling than ever tonight due 10
the amazing variety Of conflicting re-
ports which poured into FL Paso.
There was one point which was
defnioe: a message was received
by an American concern from its
representative in Parral stating that
at O'Clock Wednesday evening
American soldiers were passing
through Parral and that everything
was quiet then. As the fighting be-
tween the Americans and Mexicans
is reported TO have occurred some
time on Wednesday. this message
only served TO make the situation
more perpleXing.
An account OF the affair bTouR mt
here today by an American from
Chihuahua City was TO The effect
that the trouble started when two
American soldiers we're sent into
Parral by Maj. TompkiDs TO make
arrangements for the purchase Of
supplies Their presence aroused
the people OF the city. who already
had been agitated by reports that
the American troops were going 20
take possession of the town.
The two soldiers were surrounded
by an angry mob and some shots
were fired, which killed one Of them.
Tn, mob then rushed out in the
direction OF the main body Of the
Americans and some indiscriminate
lighting took place. in which a num-
Der OF Mexicans were wounded. The
Carranza garrison assisted in restor-
ing order. according TO this account.
and later the Americans passed
quietly through the city.
There was no possibility of certify
ing the report any more than any
OF the other reports. ranging from
an account of a complete massacre

INSURANCE ON
WARS LENGTH
Unique Business Has Come
Into Business as Re-
suit of Strife.

LONDON. April ia new and
novel kind Of insurance. based on
how long the war will last.
has come into existence. IL has
given an Indication. also. OF how the
organizations which shape these
rates view the duration Of the war.
as a cold business proposition. de-
void OF politics or sentiment. on
which insurance can De risked. This
is quite apart from the insurance on
shipping which is not based on the
duration Of the war bu. chiefly ON
the risk Of a voyage.
Many OF the large factories en-
gagged on ammunition work ind
themselves heavily stocked with steel
and all kinds Of supplies required
for making ammunition. But these
supplies are needed only as long as
the ammunition is needed. so that a
termination of the war would leave
the factory with huge stocks Of raw
material. no .onger Of use with the
demand for ammunition cut of
This has led the big factories TO
seek protection against loss through
the termination Of the war. and this
in turn has presented 10 Insurance
companies the question Of making a
rate based on how long the war will
last. The factories seeking prOtec-
ton make their applications to
Lioyds. which calls for bids from
various underwriters willing 10 take
the risk
Some time ago the rate quoted was
% TO so per cent, based on the con-
tinuance Of the war beyond the pres
ent year. Lately. however. factories
desiring this protection have found
"a marked increase i'm the rate. which
has been virtually prohibitive. up TO
20 per cent, for a risk based upon
the war lasting unit. Dec. 81, next.
This raising of the rate and shorten
ing or the period has indicated the
growing belief in business and in
surance quarters that the war was
not likely to last beyond the present
wear n banking quarters il is
stated that one rate quoted was 80
per cent on the war lasting until
Dec 81, next. AS this would mean
payment Of Lx9O on every Lx1OO
Of risk. it is virtually prohibitive
A number OF factors are said TO
have Influenced this business view
ON the probable shortening Of the
war The stout resistance OF the
French at Verdun. the fall in the
exchange rate Of the German mark.
the retirement of Adm. Won TiTpitz
and the vote in the American con-
gress on the submarine question each
has had some influence and ali to-
gether are regarded as the explana-
ton OF this sharp increase in insur-
ance rates on long continuance Of
the war.
