PAVING UP TO COMMISSION.
Argument Between Car Company and City to Terminate Soon. By Special Correspondent.
VINCENNES, Ind., June 26—The controversy between the city administration and the street railway company regarding paving and demanding a double track on Seventh street caused the public utilities commission to come to this city and investigate matters. The city insists that the car company maintain a double track to accommodate the public, and the car company says it is not able financially to meet the demands. The prime reason the public does not patronize the car line, it ik said, is because of poor service. The city has served notice that it will pave Seventh street with asphalt and will go ahead whether the car company places new ties to support the rails or not. The commission will render a decision in the case soon.

CAPTAIN MOREY'S LETTER.
Clears Up Details of Battle In Which Americans Were Killed. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., June 26 Mexican troops fired the first shot on the troopers of the Tenth United States cavalry at Carrizal, but not until the American force, fearing an am--bush, had advanced in battle formation, according to a letter written on the day of the fight by Captain Lewis Morey, commanding K troop, the day of the fight and forwarded to General Funston by General Pershing.
Captain Morey, wounded, wrote the letter at 9:15 a. m. on June 21, while hiding in a hole about 2,000 yards from the scene of the battle.
Captain Morey's letter told of the joining of troop under Captain Charles T. Boyd, and K troop under his own command, at Ojo Santo Domingo,, on June 20, and the advance together toward Carrizal at 7:30 iri the morning. There they halted and Captain Boyd sent a courier into Carrizal asking permission of General Felix Gomez to enter the town, saying he was going to Villa Ahumada. Gomez replied that he would not be allowed to enter the town, but might, make a detour around it.
Prepare For Battle.
Fearing that they were about to be trapped by the Mexicans who had moved out from the town during the pax-ley, the American troops deployed in battle formation, mounted and moved forward. The Mexicans then opened fire. Captain Boyd ordered his men to dismount and return the fire, the engagement lasting about an hour.
Following is the text of Captain Morey's letter: "Carrizal, Mexico, June 21, 1916, 9:15 a. m. "To Commanding officer Ojo Frederico: "My troop reached Ojo Santo Domingo, at 5:30 p. m., June 20. Met troop under Captain Boyd. I came under Captain Boyd's command, and marched my troop in rear for Carrizal at 4:15 a. m.—reaching open

Feared an Ambush.
"H§ was talking with Carranza commander. General Gomez sdnt a written message that Captain Boyd could bring his force in town and have a conference. Captain Boyd feared an ambush. He was under the impresi sion that the Mexicans would run as soon as we fired. "We formed for attack, his intention being to move up to the line of about 120 Mexicans on the edge of the town.
We formed troop on the left in line of skirmishers, one platoon of K troop on right of line and another K troop platoon on extreme right, echeloned a little to the rear. "When we were within 300 yards the Mexicans opened fire and strong before we fired a shot then we opened lip. They did not run. To make a long account short, after about an hour's fire in which both troops had advanced, troop to position of Mexican machine gun and K troop closing in slightly to the left. We were very busy on the right, keeping off a flank attack. A group of Mexicans left town, went around our rear and led our horses off at a gallop.

house of an American named McCabe living about nine miles from Carrizal. Major Jenkins reported that he had found Captain Morey hidden in McCabe's house, and that his wounds were not dangerous.
