tervention will come ONLY If it is forced
by the acts of Carrapza or through his
| failure to exercise control over MS
army or people.

| main in the borderland of Mexico
until there remains no probability OF
bandit raids in American territory.

Gen. George Bell. Jr., commander of
the brigade stationed her for the pro-
lection of Ell Paso and the border in
the immediate vicinity, issued or
ders to assemble the entire force. The
only explanation for the order was
that unusual activity on the part OF
the Carranza garrison at Juarez had
been noticed throughout the day.

| mander, has posted an order calling
| all MeXicans over seventeen years OF
age to the Quartet for military instruc-
ton. Five thousand additional Next

points along the Mexican Central rail-
road north of Villa Ahumada, pre-
sumably as re-enforcements for the
