Hermanas, N. M . y 13. Danger of starvati swhich today became very real for the 1900 men who were de- ported from Bisbee, Ari- zona, yesterday as members of the I. w. w. was abated with the arrival here of two cars of provisions from the United States army base at Fl Paso. A truck load of supplies from Columbus also arrived tonight.
 Acting under orders from Governor Lindsay to arrest the deported men Sheriff Simpson of Luna county and District Attorney J. s. Vaught ar rived here tonight. The officers have orders to take the 1900 men to Colun- bus, where they will be held in re- straint and fed at the states expense until final arrangements have been made for their disposition.
 Governor Lindsay telegraphed the state and war departments and Presi- dent Wilson that he considered refu- gees a national problem and tonight he was awaiting a reply to his re- quest that the state be relieved of re- sponsibility for the charges thrust upon 1t by Arizona.
 Apparently responsibility for the de- portation was fixed today when Gen. eral Superintendent F. B. King of the Fl Paso and Southwestern declared in Douglas that Walter Douglas, a vice president of that road. had instructed him to transport the men to Columbus Douglas is leading official of the Phelps-Dodge corporation, which Is heavily interested in Bisbee mines. The idea in taking them to that polnt was to force their care onto military authorities stationed there. King indi- cotad

HUDDLESTON IS SILENT

The manner in which publicity was given to the Black memorandum has not been positively established This Is due to the fact that Representative Huddleston of the Tenth Alabama de- clined to answer when asked this aft ernoon by The Age Herald correspond ent if he had released the statement alleged to have been the report of the interdepartmental board to cor respondents of certain Birmingham newspapers.

BAKERS STATEMENT

After reading them the secretary said:
 The interdepartmental board has made no such recommendation"
 The secretary then proceeaed to res late facts which prove that not only has the board not recommended any site for the permanent plant, but that the board actually rejected the mem orandum which the board is alleged to have recommended.
 According to the statement of the secretary, General Black of the corps of engineers prepared the memor andum from data compiled by local engineers, each of which emphasized the merits of his particular locality. This memorandum was referred by General Black to Secretary, Baker. The nterdepartemntal board declined to sign the memorandum in recommend ing a temporary or experimental sta tion and actually rejected the mem orandum.

QUEER SITUATION

The situation here today was a queer one. The commander of the troops here confined his efforts to pre- serving order and carrying out the dictates of humanity in seeing the de- ported horde did not suffer from hun ger. The former Bisbeeans were left pretty much to themselves and those with money besieged the little rail road telegraph office with telegrams of protest to state officials. telegrams asking for aid and telegrams noti- flying their families. some of them in Bisbee, that they were all right. This flood of messages made transmission of press dispatches difficult Some were taken to Columbus for filing.
 NO DISORDER
 There was no attempt at violence and no disorder has been reported by any citizen of this town. Except a few who started afoot for Columbus or some other point within striking distance. most of them simply made the best of their lot. Their attitude was one of restraint rather than of apathy.
 w. B. Cleary, Bisbee attorney and well known labor advocate, who was deported with the others, has taken unofficial charge of the party. He has counseled that the deported men mak 2 the best of the situation. Cleary issued the following statement tonight:
