SENTRIES EXCHANGE
SHOTS AT NOCALES

San Antonio, Tex. July 4. ALI re-
ports received at General F'unston's
headquarters indicated nothing more
exciting along the international line
than the exchanging of shots between
sentries at Nogales
Apparently no early offensive by the
concentrated forces Of the Mexicans
in front of General Pershing's posi-
tions was contemplated.
All officers commanding the troops
along the seventeen hundred miles of
border have been cautioned to avoid
clashes with the Mexican troops that
face them, but the recurrence of such
incidents as that at Nogales has
caused staff officers to fear that some
thing may occur at any time that may
serve as the basis for further compli-
cations
Unofficial reports that fire al
Pharr. Tex. was of incendiary origin

A supply of meat intended for the
troops was lost
Army men admitted that il would
be no surprise to them if dynamite
and fire were used more or less exten-
sively at different points along the
border to hamper the movement of the
guardsmen.
