Press Approves Aguilar's
Stand TreUiro GiUes Out
His Version of CarrizaL

Mexico City, July 1.-The Mexico
City newspapers today vigorously op'
proved the statement given out yester-
day by Foregn Secretary Aguilar com.
menting on and refuting assertions in
the American note.
The foreign office statement was pub.
lished in the same editions with the
American note which was thus given to
the public for the first time, The news
papers printed first paragraph Of
President Wilson y communication and
then inserted q paragraph Of Seere.
tary Aguilar's reply answering that par.
ticular charge.
Officials said today that the tone
Of Aguilar's statement was fully justi.
fled, because Of the tone Of the Amer
lean note. They complained that the
United States has sent several ex-
tremely sharp and undiplomatic mes
sages to the Mexican government and
said that they had withheld publica.
ton Of many Of these communications
because they did not wish to stir up
hostility to the United States.
The foreign office announced today
that imemdiately upon receipt Of in
formation that Secretary Lansing had
issued fresh warning for Americans to
leave Mexico, instructions were tele.
graphed to all civil and military auth
critics to give guarantees Of protec
tion TO all Americans and other for
eigners within their jurisdiction.
The war office has received from
General Treyino a complete official re-
port Of the, encounter at Carrizal, con
firming the statement Of the Mormon
guide, Lem Spillsbury, that the Amer
leans were the aggressors.

This version of the Carrizal clash not
only supports the previous Mexican Of
ficial narrative of that encounter, but
gives the new allegation that Captain
Boyd OF the American detachment de-
fiantly declared he "would march to
Villa Ahumada in the-face Of fire"
It was an official report Of Colonel
Rivas made to General Trevino,
After rccounting how Riyas went out
to confer with Boyd when the detach-
ment was sighted, how Boyd was warn
ed Of the Mcxicans orders not to per.
nit further advances and General
Gomez personally parleyed with the
American commander, urging him to
wait until word could be received
from Juurez as to the right Of the
Americans to proceed TO villa Ahumada
the statement continues:
r'To this, the overbearing American
chief replied he did not care to lose
any more time and would walk over
the Mexcans, II necessary. General
Gomez answered that he might march
ahead if he thought he was able. Then
General Gomez and we who escorted him
retired to where our forces were. The
American leader did likwise, going ia
his forces, and ordering his horses
chained up and with his cavalry afoot
advanced in open skirmich formation
upon our forces who remained
mounted and without making a move
until the Americans onened fire at ;
| distance Of so meters.'
On request of Trevino II was an
nouncod today that General Carranz'
had promoted Rivas and five other Mex
lean officers for "constancy in service

Militia Arriving.

FL Paso, Texas, July To-day q tent
ed city of several thousand militia
men is coming into existence near Fort
Bliss. Before the end of the coming
week there will be an army of $4,000 ma
tioual guardsmen stretching from Ell
Paso to Columbus, ". M.
They will gradually assume patrol
daties of over 5000 regulars, who can
be rushed into Mexico to Join General
Pershing's column. Local authorities be-
lieved Carranza' 8 statement from Mex
leo City yesterday might lead to the
punitive expedition being reinforced.
While the militia 3 advance on the
borber is screened by an official silence,
10000 from Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey are the vanguard expected here to-
day. Regulars at Fort Bliss we're hard
at work this morning, cleaning the new
camp site Of mesquite and cactus.
81 can give no information regard
ing troop movements" General Bell
stated. 81 have received instructions
from Washington to this effect. But
we expect the advance guard Of the
militiamen some time today and others
are en- route" m
Ready for Dash.
The regulars relieved by the arrival
of the national guard will be held in mo-
mentary readiness for a dash into Mex
leo, should war eventuate.
With the 5000 regulars from the FL
Paso zone, General Pershing would
have a punitive force of about 1900
men. The latest estimate of the Amer
lean army now in Mexico is about L.
600. Even thus reinforced, Pershing
will have only about q third the num-
Der the Cararnza government has con-
centrated in horse shoe around the
American expedition. The Mexicans are
believed to have laid their plans for a
quick blow by superior numbers in case
of war.
The negro cavalrymen, captured at
Carri2al and released from Chihuahua
prison were among the first to see the
% horses returned by the de facto gov
ernment yesterday on their arrival at
Fort Bliss. With a shout Of Joy the Car
rial heroes made mad rush to see
if among those recovered were their
favorite charges. Much affection was
shown for the horses by the negro cav
alrymen. a

London, July 1.-The long expected

The British swept forward with a
rush, capturing some enemy front line
trenches. Many German prisoners were
taken. The British attacks were con.
