AMERICAN TROOPS TO Be
WITHDRAWN FROM MEXICO
Floyd Il. Smith Made Sergeant
of 33rd Regiment-TrOOps
at Grayling Dissatisfied

The American eXpeditionaly troops
are to be withdraw from Mexican
territory This announcement was
made to the Mexican secretary of
war, Tuesday, by James Linn Rogers,
representative of the United States
government. Brigadier General Per-
shing will commence his return to
the border in a day or two. Mexican
commissioners have already been ap-
pointed to meet in conference with
United States representatives to set
tie the question causing the trouble
between the two countries.
A party of mounted Mexicans ex-
changed fire with United States troops
near Ell Paso, late Tuesday afternoon
according to press reports from that
city, and one Mexican was killed dur
ing the skirmish. According to re-
ports the guardsmen were doing out
post duty when the Mexicans rode up
on the opposite of the Rio Grande
and opened fire. Fifty shots were ex-
changed. 1t is stated that all the
week parties of Mexicans have ap-
peared along the banks of the river,
which is only 800 yards wide at FL
Paso.
With colors flying and in excellent
condition the last section of the
Thirty second Regiment, Michigan
National guards, arrived in Camp Cot
ton at noon Tuesday. The troops went
into camp along side of the Thirty
first and are now acclimating them
selves to their new surrounds, which
are noticeably different from Camp
Ferris. But one accident marred the
trip from Grayling to the border. Al
Muscatine, Ia, Sergeant j. c. Healy
in alighting from the train sustained
fractured leg. The cross country
trip in many respects was a big gala
excursion for the boys. In every
state the largest towns were out er
masse to give the troops all the en-
couragement they could.
Floyd T. Smith of this city was ap.
pointed Sergeant of Co. i. 33rd Regi.
ment, Michigan National guards, this
week Mr.. Smith joined the Nationa
guard last winter at East Jordan
where he was influential in organizing
| the company.
There is considerable dissatisfac
tion among members of the Michi
gar guardsmen at Camp Ferris be
cause of an announcement made this
week that in all probability the guarC
would be kept in camp for year anC
perhaps longer. This statement wa,
made by J. L. Smith, who recently Wis
tied his son, Floyd, who is a member
Of Company |, 33rd Regiment. Mr.
Smith said that so long as the mer
were receiving regular salary of $40,
per day from the state department
they were satisfied, but now that they
have been mustered in as regular
members of the United States army a
80 cents and with the though of stay
ing in camp indefinitely they are yer!
bitter 1t is the general belief a
Camp Ferris that even if the wa
cloud blows over the men will be re
tanned in camp as part of the pre-
paredness campaign adopted recent!
by congress, according to Mr.. Smith
