First Clash of War.
SDeotaI bv Dnfed Press Wire.

Pittsburgh. April 7.-One soldier
belonging to an eastern Pennsylvania
unit, was killed early today in what
may have been the first clash of the
war between Germans and American
troops. The fight occurred at the
Brinton Arch, a short tunnel of the
Pennsylvania Railroad In western
Pennsylvania. Conflicting reports re-
ceived today agreed only on the fact
that several men tried to force en-
trance to the tunnel and that they
opened fire when opposed by the
guards. In the return fire one of the
attackers was believed to have been
wounded. Reports that there were
two arrests could not be obtained at q
police station near the arch.

SDsoiai bv United Press wtr..


Washington, April What may be
happening behind the scenes in Mex
leo, was the cause for some concern
here today. The Mexican capital has
been out of communication with this
capital for some time. Both the State
department and Mexican authorities
admitted they did not know what is
proceeding there.
Coupled with unofficial reports of
fighting in Mexico City and the rumor
that Carranza had been overthrown
by General Obregon the lack of COM
munication was at least disturbing.
In Mexican quarters the rumor, as
to Carranza, was branded as "impos-
sible," though in the same breath the
Mexicans confessed they did not know
what the status in Mexico City was
The real danger in the situation is
that German money may have tainted
