MOVE AGAINST MEXICO HINGES UPON PERSHING

said he had been informed of the alleged statement by Gen. Obregon assuming responsibility for the orders issued to the Mexican detachment which made the attack. He would not comment.

FUNSTON SEEKS DETAILS.

Unwilling to Consider Die Cast Until Pershing Is Heard From. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., June 22.— General Funston's headquarters reflected early today the unrelieved strain in the American-Mexican situation. The night had passed without news from Gen. Pershing and army officers here professed to see a remaining chance that war might be averted, although unwilling to believe that the commander of the American force that clashed yesterday with Gen. Trevino's men at Carrizal had been the aggressor.

Frank skepticism was aroused by the suggestion that Gen. Gomez might not havo been attempting to enforce the Carranza edict by force and it was pointed out that his determination to force the Americans back to their own line was indicated by the official admission that he had sent a messenger to the American commander advising hiin to withdraw.

General Funston spent the night in efforts to learn "more details of what occurred at Carrizal, but in conformity with the known attitude of the administration not to precipitate war without orders or sufficient cause, he remained steadfast in his determination not to authorize moves that would remove all doubt as to the American army's* future relations with that of Carranza.

Get Out of Range.

Staff officers studied every report that came from officers in command at the border stations, for while wholly cognizant of the significance of the Carrizal fight, they realized that in the event of military operation on a big scale the great problem would be in dealing with the various big units of the Carranza army stationed within striking distance of every port of entry from Brownsvlle to Lower California.

News that Juarez was evacuated by the Mexican garrison did not surprise the headquarters' staff which yesterday learned that Gen. Ricault had removed his forces from Matamoros and that similar action had been taken at one or two other towns. In no case, however, have the Mexican forces moved far south of the border. Apparently the Intention of the Mexican army officers has been to make such disposition of the men as to have them beyond the range of the American long range guns placed near the border.

None of the reported Mexican troops movements caused anxiety at army hedquarters, where confidence is felt in the ability of the American forces to carry out, without hitch, any orders they may receive.

BLAMES AMERICANS.

Mexican Foreign Office Sends Report on Clash At Carrizal. WASHINGTON, June 22.—An official communication from the Mexican foreign office announcing the clash between Mexican and American troops at Carrizal and saying the de facto government found it difficult to understand why the Americans should have been so far away from their base was delivered to Secretary Lansing today by Eliseo Arredondo, the Mexican ambassador designate.

The communication, telegraphed by Gen. Aguilar, Carranza's foreign minister, follows: "Please bring to the attention of the department of state that an engagement occurred today (twenty-first) at Carrizal, near Villa Ahumada, Chlhuhua, between American forces numbering about 200 men with a force of our government, during which engagement Gen. Felix Gomez and several of our troops were killed. "There were several casualities among American troops, 17 taken prisoners."

Blames Americans.

"According to the statement made by thf interpreter, who was acting as guide for the American forces, the commanders of the latter Is responsible for the encounter. "Please make proper repretentations to the department and say to the secretary of state that this government finds it difficult t.o understand why the American troops that took part in the engagement should be at Carrizal, a point on the line,of the Mexican Central railroad some distance from Ciudad Juarez and far removed from the point which is alleged to be the base of the rest of the American troops which entered Mexico via Columbus. Further details will follow."

NOGALE8 ON GUARD.

Precautions Taken to Prevent Race War In Border Town. NOGALES, Ariz., June 22.—Every precaution was being taken here today by both military and civil authorities to prevent possible differences between American and Mexican residents of the American town. Some fears had been expressed as to the effect of the r.ews of the engagement at Carrizal upon the Mexicans, who compose twothirds of the population of the Arizona city.

A trip twenty miles south of the border, which was to have been made today by a committee of five, representing the business men of Nogales, under escort of Mexican Consul Delgado, was abandoned today by the consul. The trip had been arranged as a means of proving that no Mexican troops are being assembled with the intention of attacking Nogales. The consul announced, however, that he had received a telegram from Gen. P. Elias Calles, military governor of Sonora, saying that 2,000 soldiers enroute to Cananea to prevent rioting by 8,000 mining men there would be at Lomas, a railroad Junction four miies south of N ogales, early today.
