Much Depends on Whether Clash
Is Result of Carranza's At
tempt to Enforce Withdrawal
of L. S. Troops.
WASHINGTON AWAITS DETAILS
Admitted on Every Hand That
the Incident Presents Grave
Menace to Continuance of
Friendly Relations with Mex
leo.

Washington, June o1.-Reports that
American and Carranza troopers had
clashed aroused gravcst apprehension here
tonight for future relations between the
United States and the Mexican de facto
government, already strained almost to
the breaking point,
Officials declined to make any prophecy
rs to the next step of the Washington
government. saving that until details OF
the incident had been cleared up it could
not be determined whether a crisis had
been precipitatcd. They made no effort to
conceal their anxiety, but We're not ready
to abandon hope that an official account
Of what happened at Carrizal would re-
move the more threatening elements of
! the situation.
Much depends. it was Indicated. on
whether the clash was result OF Cen
oral Carranza's determination to enforce
/ his demand for withdrawal Of Ameri-
can troops from hIrxico or merely de-
tachod incident. arising out of mis-
understanding between commanders. II
it We're deliberate attempt to back
up the Carranza edict by force, there
seems little doubt that President Viii
son will accent it as an act of war and
make good his word in the latest COM
muucation to the dc facto government
! in which, it was said that any such
attempt would be followed by the
gravcst consequences"
Whatever the outcome Of the official
! investigation, however, it was admitted
on every hand that the incident in IT.

/ continuance of friendly relations and
brought the Mexican situation to per-

assumed in the many months OF uncer'
tauty since 1t began to be factor IN

FUNST0N'S ARMY
OF 10000 MEN IS
READY FOR WORD
Apparently the Only Question
Is How Soon National Guard
Will Start South.

san Antonio Texas, June 2l.--t'rom
Brownsville to the Pacific. General
Furston's army of 1000 vas ready to-
night for an emergency aud officers at
department headquarters were counting
the hours it would take to bring south
units of the national guardsmen.
General PcrshinE has been unable o
get to General Funston any reA,rt of the
engagement fought between ~American
soldiers and Carranza trocos und"r
General Felix Gomez, but thcie appeared
no reason to doubt the report from MeXi-
can sources that a serious engagement
had taken place and there was little
doubt that the Americans, a detachment
Of the Tenth cavalry, n negro organiza-
tion had suffered heavily.
Instead of the tension being broken by
the clash II was keyed still higher to-
night and there appeared no probability
that It would be lessened until the report
from General pershing was received ~
until official news Of undisputed az
gression by the same Mexican troops Is
received. General Funston said he wouC
send no special orders to General Bell
commanding at FL Faso. or t. Genera
Pershng until he had received oficia
news.
The meaGre details Of the Gcht received
by General Funston included II fact that
General Felix Gomez, comm ding the
MeXicans. was among the killed. that
the casualties on both sides We're consid-
rablo. and the intimation that the Amer
leans had fallen back.
1t was admitted at army headquarters
that General Funstons determination not
to send any special orders to General
pershng or General Bell did not mean
that swift punitive action would not be
undertaken.
