Clash With Bandits.
Mexican bandits ana United States
troops fought on Mexican soil today,
after a long chase over the border
which started when Lieut.. Newman
crossed the international boundary on
a hot trail: Of the bands which at
tackled detachments of the 26th in
fantry near San BenitO last night. Re-
ports here indicate that there have
been no casualties and tonight the
second squadron nf the United States
3rd Cavalry, upward of 400 strong,
under command Of Major Anderson,
is sleeping on Mexican soil less than
10 miles from Matamoras, where the
Mexican population, fully armed with
pistols and rifles, is awaiting develop
ments with anxiety.
Crossing which was started at 10
o'clock, had finished at sundown with
out mishap of any kind, at point
about 10 miles from here. The point
of crossing is known as Naranjos, a
small Mexican river settlement.
Within a half hour after the first
troop had crossed, volleys of shots
were heard from the brushy ambush
side of the Mexican border. indicating
at least party of 80 bandits had been
encountered. Tiey were known to
have been chased across the river by
Lieut. "A. N. Newman and Troop III"
of the 3rd Cavalry.
Wireless Established.
A field wireless apparatus has been
established on the American side of
the river tonight, which will keep in
close touch with the fourth punitive
expedition into Mexico. Troop "H'
was the first body of soldiers to cross
the river. Most of the day these SOL
diers engaged shots with bandits, af-
ter a small expedition had crossed
the Rio Grande, but the sole Casual
ty' was one Mexican bandit horse.
The situation at Guaymas is criti-
cal. due to the inability of the de
facto government to redeem the last
issue of currency as was promised.
Merchants refused to increase their
stock, which can be done only from
the United States. and then only for
gold, because the de facto officials ar
bitrarily place a valuation on the
goods upon their arrival in the city,
and then FIX a selling p:lce.
Situation Serious.
United States army officers at head
quarters here tonight regarded the
Mexican situation as most serious.
Assuming that the Mexican de facto
government would authorize Gen. Ri
caut to carry out his threats to attack
any American force that crossed tie
line into Mexico, some declared that
war was almost unavoidable.
That opportunity was presented to-
day, when more than 800 men Of the
cavalry crossed the river below
Brownsville in pursuit Of bandits that
attacked a little detachment of the
26th Infantry at San Benito last night.
Gen. James Parker. commanding at
Brownsville, sent cavalry securing
the country in the vicinity of San Ben
ito and on the "hot trail' discovered
by Lieut.. Newman, commanding troop
H, the Americans we're sent toward
the border. They trailed across the
river, and Lieut.. Newman led his
troops across late in the forenoon.
Maj. Anderson, with a squad of
the same regiment and machine gun
company, closed in on the same trail,
and early in the afternoon followed
the lieutenant and troops into Mex
leo. He was too late for the fight,

that Roy got scared and started

THE STATE AND
COUNTY ELECTION
Small Vote Everywhere in State
District and County. Con-
gresham Rucker Trlumphs
Over Only Argument
Against Him.
Gardner Distances Opponents
Ticket Generally Satisfactory.

Elections are growing quiet,
and matters of apparently less
interest to the people every year
they are held. 1t is surprising
that not only no individual cam
didate for an Office can inspire
sufficient interest in an election
to bring out the vote, but COM
bined field fails. 1t is so with
Republicans as well as Democrats
while some of the offshoots ap-
pear more than fully represented
at polls.
Salisbury township was the
principal battle-ground in the
election this year, the contest
over one or two offices in that
precinct being vigorous and sub
acrimonious, and while the inter-
est there had centered on candi-
dates for Judge of the eastern
district and congress, the hand
ing of the nomination tor coun-
ty treasurer over to their candi-
date by his opponents with grace
full celerity having relieved the
minds in that regard, leaders
did not neglect side lines in the
form of aspirants for other offices.
While betting on results was
not marked by any big money
being placed, there were plenty
of small wagers and almost every
kind of proposition. the element
of doubt concerning every race
which bore the marks of a con-
test appearing to obsess and ac-
tunate bettors to name small
sums.
The vote all over the state was
unusually light, even the cities
showing unexplainable indiffer'
ence. Candidates of all parties
suffered exactly alike. Work or
farms was in such shape that nc
excuse for failure to turn out
could be located there, but that
elections are generally becoming
matters of less concern to voter:
unless some financial feature
arouses, is obvious.
