Ell Paso, Tex, Juno 29.-America
prisoners taken by Carranzistas in
the battle Of Carrizal will be re-
leased. Andres Garcia. Mexican con-
sui in Ell Paso, informed Gen. Bell.
commanding the forces at Ell Paso. to
that effect "Wednesday afternoon.
They are to be delivered at the Dor
der. today, with all arm- and equip
ment captured with them.
This is expected to prevent u
breach OF relations between the two
governments for the present and may
lead to arbitration. The decision of
the Carranzistas to release the Ameri-
can prisoners was unexpected. The
attitude of the Carranza officers had
been defiant, and Americans did no:
expect the Carranza government to
accede to the ultimatum. Therefore
the meeting of the American general
and the Mexican consul came as Il
surprise. When it was divrlged that
Mr.. Garcia had informed Gen. Bell.
Mr.. Garcia at first declined to make
a statement, but later they confirmed
the fact thct the release had been or
dered and that the men would be
brought to Ell Paso to be turned over
to the United States. Mr.. Garcia
said:
my government to show its good
faith and to convince tho American
government that it wants to be fair.
has decided to send the prisoners to
the border that they may be turned
over to Gen. Bell.
Our government does not believe
the American government. when it in
vestigates fully. will approve the &C
lions of the American forces which
engaged the Carranza troops in action
at Carrizal LIST Friday. For that rel
son we see no good reason for hold
ing the prisoners-those men of the
American command made prisoners
by us. We will return the prisoners
with their arms, horses and equip
ment, to the American border. They
will be started from Chihuahua to
night and should arrive here Thurs
day some time"
Border Americans generally believe
war with Mexico must come, sooner
o. later, and they think the sooner
it is brought about the better.
Mexican officials were happy over
the turn in events. They declared
that this would mean a lessening Of
the tension Of the last few days.
