WASHINGTON SEES
CHANCE OF PEACE

Washington, June 2s.-An imme-
date break between the United States
and Mexico has been averted by
compliance with the American demand
for the release of the % troopers cap
tured in the fight at Carrizal. Wheth-
err war has been prevented or merely
postponed no one here would attempt
to say tonight.
Official information as to the atti-
tude of General Carranza was lack
ing. Until his response to Secretary
Lansing's note to that country, max
ing two peremptory demands, is re-
ceived, there will be no decision as to
whether President Wilson shall lay
the crisis before congress.
News of the release of the pris-
oners in early press dispatches
brought undisguised relief to high Of
ficials. 1t was accepted as correct,
although no announcement has come
through official sources
Moreover, it was assumed that Car
rama had been impressed with the
urgency of the situation, and had or
dered the captured cavalrymen to
start for the border, without waiting
for his announcement of the action
to reach Washington.
While it is generally conceded that
this movement lessons the tension and
makes the crisis less imminent. no one
conversant with the grave problem is
losing sight of the fact that the all
important question of Carranza's at
titude toward the American expedi-
ton across the border to protect the
territory and citizens of the United
States from bandit outrages, remains
unsettled. If the de facto govern
ment stands upon its orders to Cen
eral Trevino, to attack Pershing's
men when they move otherwise than
toward the border, the situation act
ually is just what it was before, ex-
cept that there now is possibility Of
diplomatic negotiations that did not
exist while the Americans were held
prisoners in Chihuahua.
The preparations of the United
States for war will go steadily for
ward. There will be no interruption
of the rush of national guardsmen to
the border, and General Funston will
continue disposing Of the forces UNI
der his command as though he ex-
pected an immediate attack.
That Carranza has complied with
one of the demands is accepted by
the more optimistic officials here as

FUNSTON TOLD OF
RELEASE OF MEN

San Antonio, TeXsa, June 2S.-Gen-
eral Funston received tonight re-
port from Brig.-Gen. Geo. Bell, Jr.,
a. FL Paso which stated that General
Bell had been notified by Mexican
Consul Garcia that the American pris-
oners taken at CarriZal now are on
the way north to Juarez, and proba-
bly, will arrive there tomorrow morn
ing.
According to the report, Consul
Garcia has received word from Gen
Jacinto Trevino that the American
prisoners, with their arms and &C
coutrements were to be delivered at
once to the American authorities. The
report was forwarded at once to
Washington by General Funston.
There was no indication at head
quarters that Trevino's order for the
liberation of the prisoners would af-
feet in any way the movement of ma
tional guardsmen toward the border.
There was general feeling among
army officers that the basic demand
expressed in the note from the depart
ment of state to General Carranza
still remains to be answered.
While several routine reports were
received today from General Per-
shing, there was nothing to indicate
clashes in the territory occupied by
the American expedition.
BY noon tomorrow the advance
guard of the troops from the Eastern
states will have entered Texas.
General Funston has urged the war
department to expedite the transfer
of recruits from Eastern recruiting
cfa fionc to the border

Funston Gives Directions

Eastern States.
GEN. WOOD CUTS
MUCH RED TAPE"
New Hampshire and Florida Troops
Not Properly Equipped-Connecti-
cut and Yale Batteries in No
Shape to Be Sent Forward.

New York, June 28.-A telegram
from General Funston, fixing the
destination of troops from states in
the department of the East, was
transmitted by the war department
tonight to Mayor General Wood.
The message said:
Request the following military and
militia organizations be sent to the
points indicated:
"All of Maryland to Eagle Pass,
Tex.
"All of Florida to Del Rio, Tex.
"All of Maine and all of New
Hampshire to Laredo, Tex.
Information as to the destination
of the Vermont national guard will
be sent later"
General Wood announced, however,
that he would not be able to carry
out General Funston's directions. IiyS
Florida troops are not yet ready ~
move and will not be for some time.
More than half of the men are raw
recruits.
The movement of New Hampshire
troops has been postponed because Of
their unsatisfactory equipment, ply
steal defects and the refusal Of many
of the men to take the federal oath,
General Wood said.
Battery F of the Connecticut field
artillery has been ordered to 20 to q
new camp at West Haven with the
Yale battery to remain for month,
and perhaps longer. Regular army
officers have reported that the men
in both batteries are so inexperienced
that it would be murder" to send
them out at present.
General Wood expected to receive
word tonight that brigade Of Penn
sylvania infantry had started for the
border. General Wood said he is
cutting red tape wherever possible'
to expedite troop movements.

ALLIED ARMIES
and GERMANS :. +.
REPORT GAINS
French Recapture Ground
Lost Recently to Germans
Near Verdun.

London, June 29.-Gains Of addi-
tional ground by the Italians from the
Austrians, by the French from the
Germans northeast of Verdun, and by
the Germans from the Russians in
Volhynia are chronicled in the latest
official statements issued by the Ital
ian, French and Austrian war offices.
In addition it is stated that the Aus
TRANS are still holding back the wing
of the Russian army, which is en-
deavoring to drive past Kuty, Boko-
wilma, with Kolomea as its objective.
In the Trentino region the Italians
continue to force back the Austrians
along almost the entire front, hav-
ing made progress in the region be-
gion between the Adige and Brenta
rivers, in the La Grina and Arsa val
leys, between the Posina and Astico
rivers, and along the upper But river.
North of Verdun the French have
recaptured from the Germans trenches
north of hill No. 321, and arrived at
the Thiaumont works, northwest Of
Verdun. The Germans carried out
heavy bombardment against the Abo-
court and Chattamcourt sectors, but
were prevented from launching in
fantry attacks from the west of hill
304 by the effectiveness Of the French
artillery fire.
In the Champagne the Germans cap
tured positions near Tahure, but later
were driven out.
English Offensive Delayed.
On the British front the expected
big offensive of King Georges army
apparently has not yet begun, but
they are carrying out at various
points successful raids on German
positions, and bombarding heavily the
line from the region of LaBassee canal
to the south of the Somme. In the
latter region British attacks were put
down by the Germans, according to
Berlin.
Continuing their counter attacks in
North Russia, the Germans have
taken the village Of Linewka, to the
west of the Sokul, and also have taken
by storm positions to the south of the
village.
Vienna reports that further Rus
sian attacks near Kuty were repulsed
by Austrian forces.
