 POLICY OF THE
 ADMINISTRATION
General Trevino's Warning Does Not Cause Washing ton Officials to Recede from Determination to Keep Troops ill Mexico
Republican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Confir- mation of General Trevino's warning that any movement of American troops in Mexico except toNard the border would be treated by the Car ranZa commanders as a hostile act, reached the war department late to- day. Secretary Baker declined to comment on or to make public Cen eral Trevino's message or the reply of General Pershing refusing to rec ognize authority of the Carranza gen eral over the American expedition.
 While it was apparent that General Pershings reply would be backed up by officials here it was not indicated what further action the Washington government might take. Secretary, Baker took the text of General Ire who's ultimatum to the White House and conferred with the president to- night. It was understood that after studying the note the president would await official information regarding reported fighting today in the Brownsville district before he deter mined upon a course.
 ! ceiVed no report on the development at Brownsville. Officials said that if Carranza troops had made any at tack on American detachmeiits fol- lowing hot trails over the line the l Americans Undoubtedly would with draw to the American side and~ en- trench to repel any attempt to follow them They did not believe any coun- ter attack would be attempted without special orders from Washington.
 Neither state nor war department officials seemed greatly agitated over General 'Trevino's ubimatum. Secre- tary Lansing said the policy of the administration was unchanged.
 The reply to the Carranza note de- manding the recall of the American forces will leave by special messenger Monday for Mexico City, unless de velopments upset present plans.
 Whether General Trevino's ulti matum, said to have been presented on specific orders of Carranza, woulC influence President Wilson to in terrupt the diplomatic exchange n'
 official would predict

tain work. Several hundred who ar rived today from the Torreor and La glna districts said Carranza officials in those districts are giving free trans portation to 2eon families who come to the border They pointed out that in the districts there is a shortage of food and little or no work and that the officials feel that the problem can best be solved in this way.
 General George Bell, Jr., command ing .he American border patrol con- tinued tonight to keep all officers and soldiers of Fort Bliss garrison in the post awaiting "any developments" but he reiterated the order was merely a measure of preparedness. Word was received at military headquarters to- day that train of twentv-seven mo- tor trucks has been shipped to Fl Paso tc be used in transportating troops and supplies along the border when neces- scary.
 The state department has authorized employees here to spend government money if necessary to get individual Americans out of Mexico. Not so much concern is felt over the old timers who crn is felt over the old timers who have married Mexican wives and be- come more or less Mexicanized, as the n1ining men down in the Paral district who are for the most part new to the country
 Newspapers from Mexico City re- print Carranza's decree calling for municipal elections throughout the re- public on the first Sunday in Sep | tnmher. This decree states that nc perscn is eligible for election who has opposed the constitutionalist cause either by ;,rms or as an ofGcehodel lnder hostile factions.

 It is claimed officially in Agua Prieta that these troops are going to Naco- zari, but men who say they met them on the road say they were travelling away from Nacozari, riding southeast instead of south.
 Excitement is at fever heat in Nor thern Sonora, rumors concerning the intentions of American troops to in wade Mexican territory having gained credence.

 It was currently rumored today anC believed by many people, including l United States army officers, that Gen eral P. Elias Gales will endeavor t i hold Sonora in control in the event o a break.

American troops are being redisposed in sections where surprise attacks might be possible. Outposts in every direc- tion have been withdrawn and de- tailed to vantage points for protective purposes.
 While no immediate attack is looked for yet, General Pershing is taking ev- cry precaution to protect his command it is said It is understood also that General Pershings' instructions from his superiors give him perfect freedom of action in case of attack by the Mex ican de facto troops.

This statement was made by him today to a small delegation of MeXicans who called to see him in regard to holding a meeting of protest against the presence of American troops.

 Excitement manifested in Fl Paso last night and early today apparently had abateG tonight with the realiZa- ticn that every precaution had been made to protect the city in events of the remotest possibility. Persons closely in touch with the situation ap- parently expect no overt acts against the Americans from the Mexicans in this vicinity. Even the arrival of four hundred additional troops from Villa Ahumada, eighty-three miles south to augment the Juarez garrison, caused but passing comment.

manding, about o'clock this after noon.
 According to the meagre reports here fighting began immediately or shortly after the entrance to Mexico. Tele- phone reports from Villanueva, an- other settlement on the river bank, said that heavy firing was plainly audible Officers at Fort Brown declined early tonight to make known the progress of the expedition. This was believed to have been due to lack of information more than a desire for secrecy.
 All soldiers and officers stationed at Fort Brown were called in from out side points at noon, and held in the garrison Activities at the post indi- cated that any eventuality might be expected. In the meantime officials waited for some word of Major Ander- sons flying column.

The occa- sion of the crossing was the pursuit of a "hot trail" of Mexican bandis, who attacked United States soldiers near San Benito last night.
 The first command to enter Mexico was that of Lieutenant A. D. Newman, with Troop H of the Third cavalry, crossing the river at ten o'clock. A second detachment left Fort Brown at 1:30 o'clock and joined the Newman expedition. with Major Anderson com

PORKERS HALT TRAFFIC
ON MARKET ST. BRIDGE

And they kept the pig In the par
lor." That quaint old Irish song was
recalled yesterday by an incident not
often witnessed in Wheeling, when a
drove OF pigs on Market street tied
up the City Traction company's lines
a few minutes on the Wheeling Creek
Bridge. II IS we'll known to all that
no more stubborn animal can be found
than the pig From drove Of per-
haps fifty. one baked, and turning, it
started back the street at the BalIi-
more and Ohio railroad station. The
others camped on the tracks Of the
traction lines, refusing TO bulge even
though the cars threatened TO- make
sausage Of them.
The hcrdsman gave chase after the
srraying pOrker, and after running up
and down the streets no less than,
twenty times, it was finally persuaded!
10 join the remainder OF the drove and
forever more continued the trip to the
slaughter house in peace.
