and the United States. Carranza said
in part:
This is not the time for hasty ac-

difficulties with the United States and
have hopes of succeeding. l want you

The encounter between American
soldiers and Mexicans near Matamoras
has heen temporarily solved with the
withdrawal of American troops from
that region. The matter is now being
taken up diplomatically There was
some trouble in Mazatlan caused by
the intrusion of an American sailor

Washington, June IA resolu-
ton making Immediately effective the
militia draft provision of the new
army organization bill under which
guardsmen consenting to take the
federal oath would be available for

been prepared by War Department
officials and Chairman Hay of the
House Military Committee. 1t may be

The Hay resolution would put into
immediate effect Section III of the
new bill which will not become effect

Il authorizes the President to draft
all members of the National Guard or
National Guard reserves in his dis
cretion when Congress shall have
authorized the use of the armed forces
of the country.
AS only Congress has the power to
declare war, the President would use
the guardsmen even under this section
only for repelling invasion in the
absence of specific authority from
Congress. 1t is held, however. that
the militia may be sent across the in

Notwithstanding Threats
Will Go After Bandits at
First Sign of Hostility
By Associated Press

Columbus, n. NJ. June 19. - Not
withstanding the threat of General
Trevino, the Mexican commander, to
attack him if he moves in any direc-
tion except toward the border. Gen
eral Pershing, commander of the
American eXpeditionary force in MeXi-
co, is said to be quietly laying plans
for quick dashes north and south at
first sign of hostilities. His plans, it
is believed by observers are to gain
possession of the Mexico Northwestern
railroad which practically commands
the territory adjacent to his line of
communication.
General Pershing's men slept on
their arms last night.
The American commander is in re-
ceipt daily of information regarding
de facto Mexican government troop
movements. Natives, treated kindly
by the Americans, have voluntarily
supplied valuable information.

Leader of Conductors
Replies to General Manager
By Special Correspondence

New York. - June 19.-'The state
ment is an effort to intimidate the
men," said A. B. Garretson, president
of the Brotherhood of Railroad Con-
ductors. when informed of the Penn
sylvania Railroads appeal to its en-
ployes. 1T will fail of its purpose.
The railroads have resorted to such
tactics before. but never so openly.
Heretofore they have sought to ac-
complish the same end in secrecy
The statement. in my mind, has no
special significance and does not alter
the situation, which, as has already
been pointed out, is not hopeless.
There is no danger of a general strike
unless the railroads refuse to negotiate
with us after the strike vote is taken.
1t must be remembered that the strike
vote has yet to be taken"

Ell Paso, June 10. - Developm ents
in the Mexican situation caused eX-
citement to-day paralleling that fol-

the American eXpeditionary command
at Columbus, y. NJ, more than three
months ago.
American military authorities ad-

in this immediate locality.

could not be confirmed and was not
generally believed.
Trcvino Aiming Citizens
Reports also were current that Cen
cral Jacinto Trevino, CarranZa COM
mander of the army of the North, is
arming all male citizens above the
age of Is, following his recruiting
campaign for which orders were re-
Gently issued by the Mexican minister
OF war.
So far as is known here only about
ten Americans, other than expedition
airy soldiers, remain in Chihuahua.
Apprehension was manifested here
for the five at Parral, all OF whom are
employees of American mining COM
panies. All of them have been di-
rected by the employers to leave
Parral if possible for the border to-
day The remainder at Chihuahua

by powerful Mexican friends.
Expect Quick Cooling
Americans just out of Mexico eX-
pressed a belief to-day that the war
feN er in the northern States of the re-
public is likely to cool quite as sud
denly as il has arisen. They based
their opinions on the harsh reality
of economic conditions there. Con-
siderable relief was manifest in FL
Paso upon the publication of the order
of General Alvaro Obregon, Mexican
minister of war, directing that no
Mexican refugees be allowed to cross
the international boundary. Some
4, 600 Mexicans from the interior States
have concentrated in Juarez in the last
few days in the hope of crossing into
the United States in search of work.

pressed fear that large influx of the

bring with them some of the diseases
which have followed in the wake of
