CONCENTRAT|ONO Of
MEXICAN FORCE ON
BORDER REPORTED

Ell PASO., TeX-A concentration
of Carranza troops along the north
ern border of Mexico has been re-
ported here.
The largest mobilization was said
to be at Ojinaga, opposite Preside,
where reinforcements of 1900 men
have arrived since the Jenkins af-
fair grew critical.
In the Fuerte valley and at Nava-
10, Sonora, anti-American Mexican
Indians have replaced Yaquis too
friendly to the United States, it was
said.
The Juarez garrison, suspected of
lacking sympathy with the Carranza
cause, has been replaced with loyal
lists, the reports declared.
Military intelligence officers OF
the United States who brought these
reports attached no significance to
the massing of Carranzista troops.
Interventionists, however, readily
charge Carranza with plotting to keep
himself in power by again postpon-
ing the presidential election sched-
uled for next June and if necessary
to continue defiance of the United
States in order to obtain the patriotic
support of the different Mexican fac
tons.
Except for ordnance, of which
there is enough along the border
now to supply five divisions, the
American army is unprepared. Not
over 5000 men are at Fort Bliss
today. Regular cavalry troops are
down to fifty-five men, compared
to full complement of 100. The
infantry units and other branches
have been similarly skeletonized by
rehabilitation since the armistice.
Warehouses along and near the
border, however, are bursting with
munitions and enough railroad sup
plies are within easy reach to girdle

to almost any risk, rather than get
it into their nostrils. Now, in this
still water the blood from the dead
bull soon spread all about, so that
when the herd began to arrive, fol-
lowing their leader, they were ter
ribly frightened. Indeed, the first
of them turned and tried to get
back up the channel where, how
ever, they met others following, and
there ensued tremendous con-
fusion. They rose TO che surface,
blowing, snorting, bellowing and
scrambling over each other till
there was a perfect pandemontum

swamps at signal given by the
firing of q great pile Of reeds.
Then came the time for. us to de-
part to the appointed spot about
twenty miles away. Captain Rob-

off his gin, was as active about the
affair as though he were once more

feeding ground.
Here with the assistance of some
Of the riverside natives-the rest
had made a wide detour to the head
of the swamps, whence they were
to advance at a certain signal-we
made our preparations.
These were simple. A quantity
OF thorn trees were cut down and

in the narrow channel of deep
water, while to their tops, which

tied a variety of rags, such as old
red flannel shirts, gay-colored but

what besides. Some Of these frag-

ancnored ropes under water. Also
we selected places for the guns

more, built stone wall to the
height of several feet on the land

their shooting.
These labors occupied the rest of
that day. and at night we retired TO
higher ground to sleep. Before
dawn on the following morning we
returned and took up our stations,
some on one side of the channel and
some on the other.
Before the sun rose Captain Rob-
ertson fired a huge pile OF dried
reeds, which was the signal to the

marched down into the sea Of bush

About midday we passed out OF
the bushveld and reached the place
where the drive was to be. Here,

with bush, was swamp not more
than three hundred yards wide,

"And what, Hans?"

Later l saw Inez herself, who
said that she would have liked to
come, although she hated to see
great beasts killed, but that her
father was against it because he
thought she might catch fever.

was doubtful, and said that | would
leave Hans, whose foot was not as

had made friends, as she had done

much preferred a shooting trip to
stopping alone in this strange place
with nothing to do except eat and
sleep.
In reality Hans was putting up
a most gallant moral struggle
against temptation. AS | found
out afterward, Captain Robertson
had been giving him strong drink
on the sly. Also he had shown
him where, if he wanted it, he
could get more, and Hans always
wanted gin very badly indeed.
"You will stop here, Hans, look
after the young lady and nurse
your foot" I said, sternly, where
on he collapsed with a sigh and
asked for some tobacco.
Meanwhile Captain Robertson,
who l think had been taking a stir
rup cup, was making his farewells
down in the village, for | saw him
there kissing a collection of half
breed children, and giving Thomaso
instructions to look after them and
their mothers. Returning at length
he called to Inez to keep a stiff
upper lip" and not feel lonely, and
commanded the cavalcade to start.
So off we went, about twenty of
the village natives armed with
every kind of gun, marching ahead
and singing songs. Then came the
wagon with Captain Robertson and
myself on the driving-box, and
lastly Umslopogaas and his Zulus.
Before nightfall we came to
ridge whereat the bushveld turned
south, fringing that tributary of the
great river in the swamps of which
we were to hunt for sea-cows. Here
