BODY OF CARRANZA CAVALRY
HALTED BY AMERICAN TROOPS

Douglas, Ariz., May Am attempt
of body of Carranza cavalry, the
advance guard of Gen. Arnulfo Co
mez, TO enter Chihuahua through
Pulpito Pass, was blocked today by
American troops. according to re-
liable report received here from Am
erican sources.
The MeXicans, according to the re-
port, were under the command of
Col. Jesus Maria Aguierre and had
penetrated eighteen miles into the
pass before their movement was dis
covered by a United States military
aeroplane, which reported the pres
ence of the de facto troops to the
American commander
The American troops are said to
have been drawn up in strategic for
nation to hold the pass, and Colonel
Aguierre did not attempt to press
forward but went into camp and dis-
patched messengers to the rear, pre-
sumably to communicate with Cen
eral Gomez.
Colonel Aguierre's advance into
chihuahua is believed here to have
been the forerunner of a general
movement.
Americans arriving here from the
g
eral Gomez scattered through the
Bavispe river valley have received
orders to concentrate between Co
lonia Morelos and Colonia Oaxaca
and were marching northward today.
This would place the entire com
mand on the road to Pulpito Pass,
through which they would enter Chi
huahua in the Casas Grandes district.
Gomez is reliably reported to have
$500 men, including 1900 cavalry
and four cannon.
The garrison at Aqua Prieta is not
more than 300 strong.
Wild rumors are current on both
sides of the border and arrivals
today said a report had reached the
de facto soldiers at Fronteras that
force of 5000 American sol
diers were invading Sonora, and 1t
was with difficulty that their COM
manders restrained the Mexicans
from marching northward to meet
the supposed invaders.
Pulpito Pass is a narrow break in
the mountains which form the bor-
der line between Sonora and Chi
huahua and is approximately forty
miles south of the American from
tier.
The advance of General Gomez's
forces from Sonora through the pass
would bring the MeXicans in close
touch with the line of communication
between Columbus, n. NJ, and Gen
eral Pershing's naval base.
General Gomez recently has made
his headquarters at Cabullona and

prived Of their votes on the measure
through failure to ask for ballots.
Mayor Smith promptly issued this
warning TO all voters
"If election officials conspire to defeat
or injure the loans by Withholding from
voters the separate ballots for the loans
their action to my mind would be Grim
inal 1t is up to the voters to defeat any
such plan by demanding both the ballots
for delegates and for the loans.
You can't make warning from me
on this subject any too strong Every
voter Interested in the loan bills should
demand both ballots, and they viii get
them. If any conspiracy to withhold
loan ballots is discovered, then quick, ac-
ton should he taken against any election
official implicated.
IL don't believe that any election official
wll go so far as to withhold loan ballots
II the voters remember to make a demand
for them. l don't believe that any plan
to cut down the loan vote by holding
back on loan. ballots Will have any effect
on the, general result Every voter should
see thai, he is supplied with all the ballots
to be N6ted'' tvE
The Mayor said that he had heard of
other schemes advanced by political enc
mics OF, the loans TO bring about their
defeat
tail Grocersi Assoriatiopi@ gave out the
following statementSt this morning:
"The Retail Grocers Association, con-
sisting Of more than one thousand mem
bers. met last evening in the assembly
room of the Bourse and unanimously.
adopted resolutions indorsing the loan bills
and urging members of the association to,
work for the passage of the loan bills at
the election on Mayo l6."
2 APPEAL TO WEST PHILADELPHIA I
"The transit loan bill is in peril
,'You must either figh tfor its passage
sor forfeit the splendid transit facilities
Which have been planned to PROPERLY serve
West Philadelphia as we'll as the entire
city"
with this warning former Transit Dl-
rector A. Merritt Taylor. in a statement
made public today called upon the voters
in West Philadelphia to support the $67,-
100, 900 transit and port loan bill on May
16. The defeat of the loan bill. he de-
clared, would wreck the entire compre-
hensive program of high-speed lines and
permit the continuance OF the present dis
criminatory exchange tickets. The pas
saRe of the bill would be n step for
greater Philadelphia.
An extensive publicity campaign for
the loan bills including four-day adver-
tisements in all the newspapers and at
tractive posters on the billboards through
out the city was decided upon late yes
terday

filled the building before the close of the
gathering.
II was gratifed at the interest taken
and at the enthusiasm displayed by the
crowd when every one present, by ris-
ing vote, approved n resolution indorsing
the loan. l am giving up all my time to
the loans and any efforts made to hurt
them will meet with quick action.
"I can say that no effort will be too
great to insure to every voter a chance
to express his views on the loans I
know some things that are going on, about
which am not free to talk at this time
but you can take It from me we are
keeping our eyes open to the situation
and mean to see that the loans have
every chance to get fair hearing.
IF any election officials conspire to
hold back either the transit or the gen.
eral loan by keeping back ballots then
the voters generally will demand ballots
and can rest assured that their rights
will be fully protected"
The largest registration in the history
of the city is entitled to vote for the
loans next Tuesday 4 total of 303,1S3
electors is qualified to cast ballots on
the two measures and also to vote the
non-partisan ticket at the primary elec.
ton
All voters who are enrolled as non.
partisans ave qualified to vote on the
loans, in addition to all who are enrolled
under the party names.
Special instructions to voters are being
prepared by the forces that are support
ing the loans, and will be issued several
days before the primary election.
There will be three ballots for the
voter to mark this year They are the
party ballot upon which the voter must
make Al marks in order to vote the entire
ticket, the loan ballot, upon which will be
printed only the two loan measures, and
the nonpartisan ballot, upon which the
names of candidates for the State Su-
preme Court will be printed. In all, $780,
600 ballots are being printed.
William Dixon, president of the 2tst
Ward Board of Trade, presided at the
meeting and introduced the ex-Drector.
II have been fighting for you for the
last four years. and 1 am fighting for
you yet" said Mr.. Taylor, in opening
his address. II have come here tonight
to tell you what real rapid transit means
to residents OF the 21st Ward, and what
the residents of the ward will forfeit
IL they vote against the transit loan bill.
[ have faith and confidence in you men
of this section, and I am going away
from here tonight convinced that you
will vote for the bill after being informed'
of what IL contains"
Mr. Taylor then told of the speclficf
benefits residents of Roxborough will re-
ceive IL the transit loan bill is approved
by the voters.
The Mayor, who followed Director Tay-
lor. made a stirring appeal for the pas
sage of both loan bills and pointed out
that not only was the Henry avenue
bridge over the Wissahckon dependent
upon the transit loan but on the general
improvement loan as well because the City

The solid support of RoXborough and
Germantown for the S67, 100000 transit
and port loan bills at the polls on May l6
was pledged TO former Transit Director
A. Merritt Taylor last night at two
mass meetings at which he took the
stump for thettransit loan. Mayor Smith
and three members of his Cabinet APP
peared with Mr.. Taylor at the Roxbor-
otgh meeting, which was held under the
direction of the 21st Ward Board of
Trade in Lyceum Hall, Lyceum and
Ridge avenues At the Germantown
meeting, which was held in Library Hall
Vernon PaflS. under the direction of the
Germantown and Chestnut Hill Improve
ment Association, the former transit dt-
rector was the only speaker.
A week ago the 2tst Ward Board of
Trade declined to go on record in favor
of the transit loan. Mr.. Taylor was told
of this last night, and when he concluded
his address he called upon all who were
now willing to support the loan bill to
rise. Every man in the hall jumped to his
feet with rousing cheers.
The meeting in Roxborough was first
scheduled to be held in the Levering
Public School, but Superintendent of
Schools DR.. John p. CARRIER revoked the
permit for the meeting at the last minute
on the ground that it was of a political
nature. Doctor Garber's action was taken
so late that there was no opportunity to
notify the Mayor and the other speakers
of the change. ss.s
AS a result the Mayor, his directors
and Mr.. Taylor arrived in n pouring rain
only to find the school closed and locked.
The men were told that the meeting had
been changed to Lyceum Hall The
Mayor was indignant at the action Of the
school authorities and declared that 1t re-
quired an explanation, since the meeting
was plainly not of political nature.
Superintendent CARRIER today expressed
his regret that the Mayor was indignant
at the closing of the school. but he de-
clared that the school board has no au-
thority to allow the use of school build
ings for other than meetings of an, edu-
cational character.
Yesterday noon" he said. I'VE were
asked for permission to use the school for
a talk on the loan bill. The rule is that
school buildings can be used only for edu-
cational meetings, so we We're obliged to
refuse permission for the meeting 1,
think the Mayor viii look at the matter
ini the right light when he Understands the
situation"
In discussing the transit meeting held in
Roxborough last evening the Mayor said:
'Srhe meeting was to have been held In
a school house. but whensI got there 1
found the building dark and one lone
newspaper reporter on the job. 1t seems
the place of meeting had been changed
to the Old Lyceum Building in Rox-
borough. E
-'when got there found the storm
had cut down the crowd, but those who
had turned out were enthusiastic in their
support of the loan bills. Former d.
rector Taylor received iattering recep-
tom and as the evening advanced the
crowd grew to such proportions that it

LANsING's STATEMENT.
Besides making public the, text OF the
note, Secretary Lansing last night lssueu
a statement intended to emphasize the po-
sItton of this Government In refusing TO
permit Germany to make her abandonment
of illegal submarine methods contingent
upon a modification Of the British blocH-
ade. .,...
"Our differences with Great BTltaln cai
not form subject of discussion with
Germany" he asserts, and then points OUT
that in dealing with Great Britain TINS
Government is acting under treaty obllg-
ations for the settlement of disputes whlle
Germany declined TO make similar treaty
arrangement. This is reference TO the
Bryan peace treaties, providing Tor
breathing spell" during which naaons
would endeavor to adjust serious diiIer-
ences without resort TO war. But Mr.
Lansing indicates that in matter such
as the submarine controversy, where a
continuing menace to American lives IS
involved. "it Is doubtful whether such OBJ
legations apply unless the menace is re-
moved during the proceedings"
The text of Mr.. Lansings statement Is
as follows;
THE greater part of the German an
swer is devoted to matters which TINS
Government cannot discuss with the Ger.
man Government The only questions OF
right which can be discussed with that
Government are those arising out OF its
action or out of our own, and in no event
those questions which are the subject OF
diplomatic exchanges between the United
states and any other country.
