In this connection, officials here are

HETTY GREENAT

Republican A. p. Leased wirel

NEW YORK, July 3.-Mrs. Hetty
Green, known as the worlds wealthiest
woman, who was 50 years old, died here
today. She had suffered three strokes
of paralysis in the last two months and
for several weeks had been practically
helpless.
Her death occurred at SOS O'Clock
at the home of her son, Col Edward H.
II. Green, adjoining the plain brick
house where Mrs Green had lived late
~ in seclusion except for her son and
several Japanese servants and trained
nurses.
Her son, Col. Green, and her daugh-
ter, Mrs. Matthers $. Astor Wilks, had
been with her much of the time and
it was recently reported that Mrs.
Green had turned over all of her finan-
cial affairs to her son.
Mrs. Green's body will be taken to
Vermont. Funeral services will be
held there Wednesday.
The death of Mrs. Green will release
for distribution among a large number
of people scattered all over the United
States and abroad, a trust fund said to
amount to about 81 100000. This is the
residuary estate of her aunt, Sylvia
Ann Rowland, bequeathed for Hetty
Green's life use, and after her death, to
be divided among the lineal descen-
dants Of Mrs. Green's eat-grandfath-
er, Gideon Rowland of Dartmouth,
Mass. Gideon Rowland was born in
1874, and died in 1923, and inasmuch as
descendants of eleven of his children are
living, some in the sixth generation,
they probably constitute small army
Some of the heirs intermarried and
their children will inherit doubly, thus
adding to the difficulties to be encoun-
tered by the trustees in determining
the complete list Of those entitled t.
the money.
Hetty Green was the worlds most
remarkable mistress of finance. The
fortune she has left is close to $780,.

statement that the order creating the

eral Pershing's activities in the

speculation. Skepticism was evinced

BAD FEELING ON BORDER
Officers Believe Clash Will Come
Before Diplomatic Corre-
spondence Ends - General
Trevino Not Thought to Be
Joking-CarrizaI Affair Still
Not Clear.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, June 20
General Funston's forces along the
border are ready and waiting for any
movement which the Mexican situa-
ton may make necessary Unless
some overt act of the de facto gov
ernment should cause it. such a move
will come only at the express direc-
tion of officials at Washington. Army
officers here express the belief that
even should negotiations with the Car
rama government be long continued,
the feeling prevailing among the Mex
leans across the border would cause
some act that must precipitate Il
clash.
The complete story of the Carrizai
fight. partially told last night in the
letter from Capt Morey of the Tenth
cavalry eagerly is awaited by Gen.
eral Funston, Capt Morey's message
to his wife last night. in which he an
nounced his safe arrival at the main
American column would indicate thaa
his physical condition after his ex-
u dpI Iullldl totdpC lloiii u'hth Va tup-
turc, was such that his report would
not be long delayed.
Army officers are convinced that
Gen Trevino's statement that he
would attack American troops ap-
preaching Ojo Caliente and San An
tonic was not an empty threat and
are anxious for more news of the two
squadrons of the Eleventh cavalry
sent toward Carrizal. Some conjecture
has been caused as to the identity of
the American troops reported ap-
preaching those places, as there are
five Ola Calientes in that part of Chi
huahua and San Antonio is also a
common name for villages there.
Brief reports from Gen. Pershing
early today contained the news that
Capt. Morey had been rescued by a
scouting party detached from Mai.
Jenkins command. Maj. Jenkins re-
ported that two squadrons of the
Eleventh were continuing their sweep
ing search for survivors of Troops G
and x, of the Tenth cavalry and in
dicated that at the time he filed his
report, no opposition by Mexican
troops had been encountered. Nine
of the men who were in the fight at
Carrizal remain unaccounted for.

c3 Known Dead.

FIELD HEADQUARTERS, Mexico,
Mex, June 2G) Twenty three Amer
lean soldiers are known to have lost
their lives on the battlefield, at Carri-
Zal, according to a report to General
Pershing from Major Jenkins, com
manding the Eleventh cavalry column
ordered to scOur the country in thar
vicinity for survivors.
The report told of the rescue Of
Capt. Lewis S. Morey, after he had
made a daring stand in the face Of
heavy Mexican orders aud heroic
personal sacrifices in an effort TO
save the lives of his men, Major
jenkins said he had evidence that
nine American troopers, in addition
to those previously reported dead,
had been killed.
A note found Oh the body OF Capt.
Charles r. Boyd the American com
mander who lost his life in a charge
on the Mexican machine gun trench,
proved that Gen. Felix Gomez, the
the town of Carrizal. and that he had
refused and afterwards conferred with
Gomez outside the town.
Neither the notebook Of Captain
Boyd nor that of Captain Morey, both
of which were recovered. gave any
new light on the clash according to
the report. After the first firing X
Troop, under Captain Morey's com
mand, took refuge in nearby adobe
house. Major Jenkins reported real
izing that they were surrounded and
outnumbered by Mexican troops, he
ordered his men TO leave the hut in
small detachments that their chances
Of escape might be increased. Capt.
Morey. himself suffering with slight
wound with four men, remained hid

thousand yards Of the Carranza line.

SAN ANTONIO, June 2G. News
reaching army headquarters here to-

1t Is also indicated that these troops
are taking station at strategic points
along a line well south of the border
where railroad functions allow the
rapid handling of troops or where
the topography of the country would
permit of strong defense.
Their new line, it is reported. par
parallels in way the course of the
Rio Grande and would command the
main lines Of advance toward the
strategic points of Monterey and Sal

furnish the main fuel supply of Mex
leo; Parcdon, the main railroad
junction point between Monterey and
Saltillo and Torreon and which prob
ably will be the main base of the

AGE LIMIT NOW
LOWERED By THE
REGULAR ARMY
CAN JOIN WITHOUT CONSENT
OF PARENTS-GOES INTO EF-

RECRUITING.

The war department has lowered
the age limit required of recruits, ac-
cording to orders received last night
by F. j. Peterson, in charge of the
local United States army recruiting
station. The age of consent is lower
ed from q years to IS, while appli-
cants under IS who can meet the ply
steal requirements will be taken into
the regular army provided they have
their parents consent.
The orders to make these changes
We're received late last night by Mr.
Peterson and he will put them into
execution at once. Heretofore an ap-
plicant was required to be 21 years
old before he could join the army un-
less he secured the consent of his pa.
rents or guardian. Also, heretofore,
minors under IS years could not join
under any circumstances. Both of
these handicaps are now removed
and enlistments are expected to swell
the regular army rapidly.
The orders were made possible un-
der provisions in the recent national
defense act passed by congress.
