CALL TO GUARDSMEN

Washington.-Mr. Bakers state
ment announcing the call to the
National Guard was as follows:
In view of the disturbed con-
ditions on the Mexican border, and
in order to assure complete pro-
lection for all Americans, the Pres
ident has called out substantially
all the state militia and will
send them to the border, wherever
and as fully as General Funston
determines them to be needed for
the purpose stated.
IF all are not needed an effort
will be made to relieve those on
duty there from time to time, so
as to distribute the duty.
This call for militia is wholly
unrelated to General Pershing's eX-
pedition, and contemplates no ad-
ditional entry into Mexico, except
as may be necessary to pursue ban
dts who attempt outrages on
American soil.
THE militia is being called out
so as to leave some troops in the
several states. They will be mo-
bilized at their home stations,
where necessary recruiting can be
done"

Washington.-For a while at least
Ohio will be converted into military
camp, for President Wilson ordered
out the Ohio National Guard for serv-
ice on the Mexican border. The tramp,
tramp, tramp of soldiers will be heard
around Cincinnati, for simultaneously
the President ordered the following
units of the Kentucky National Guard
to mobilize at Ft. Thomas, KY: One
brigade Of three regiments Of infantry
one company of signal corps, one field
hospital and one ambulance company.
The telegram also says organiza-
tions to be accepted into federal serv-
ice should have the minimum peace
strength now prescribed for organized
militia. In chance any regular bat
talon or squadron now recognized as
such contains an insufficient number
of organizations 10 enable it to con-
form at muster 10 regular army or
ganiZation tables the organizations
necessary to complete such units may
be moved to mobilization camps and
there inspected under orders of the
department commander to determine
fitness for recognition as organized
militia by the war department.
1t is required that all officers of the
adjutant generals department, quar-
termaster's corps and medical corps,
duly recognized as pertaining to state
headquarters of the organized militia
and not elsewhere required for duty
in state administration, be ordered to
camp for duty as camp staff officers

only be followed by hostilities. Some
have crossed to the American side for
protection, but the majority, ignorant
of the purposes of the United States,
have fed to interior Mexico.
There is every indication that the
Mexican troops are planning an i'm
mediate attack on General Pershing's
forces without waiting for further or
ders from the de facto government
leaders. General Trevino's forces are
on the move.
A large command has been reported
moving westward from Chihuahua City
toward the immdieate south base of
the punitive expedition at NamiQuipa.
The division, which had been assem-
bled at Villa Ahumada on the Mexican
Central railroad, has been divided and
is in motion. Approximately 5000
men of this command are marching in
the direction of Ell Vale, which is the
most pregnable point on General
Pershing's line of communication.
The remainder of the force, estimated
at 1000, is proceeding toward Juarez

seven days. If the retreating move
ment is not ordered within the pre-
scribed period a state of war will be

The communication is said to be en-

will date from the time the notice is
delivered in Washington.

WARSHIPS ARE DISPATCHED

Washington.-Secretary Daniels or
dered seven destroyers and nine other
small war vessels to Mexican waters
to join units of the Atlantic and Pa
cifc fleets already stationed on the
East and West Mexican coasts. The
secretary described the movement as
revolutionary" The vessels proba-

issued to the transport Dixie, which
sailed from Philadelphia for Key
West; the scout cruiser Salem, at
Guantanamo, Cuba; the gunboat Dol
phin, en- route to Guantanamo from
Santo Domingo, and the transport
Hancock, at San Domingo. Three de-
stroyers will be selected from the fleet

commander of naval forces on the
west coast, will choose four destroyers
and five other small vessels to be dis
patched under his authority.

100000 READY TO SERVE

Washington. - The administration
figures that about 100000 men are
ready to respond to the call of the
President for service of the militia on
the Mexican border. Mobilization of
the national guardsmen to support
General Funston's line will pave the
way for releasing some 10000 regulars
for immediate service in Mexico in the
event of open hostilities with the Car
rama government. The 'guardsmen
themselves could not be used beyond
the line without authority of Congress
and until they had volunteered for duty,
as they are called out under the old
militia law. The new law, which
would make them available for any
duty under the federal government,
goes into effect July l.

Mexican bandits, who raided Texas
ranches and attacked a detachment
