FOREIGN SERVICE IS LONG Military Career Begun as Private McLaughlin In Michigan Na tional Guard; Commission Won Three Years Later- Colonel Clenard McLaughlin, who commands the Third Oregon Infantry, is a Captain in the regular Army. He has seen much active service and has fought in several hard campaigns in the Philippine Islands. He began his military career in 1898 as a private in the Michigan National Guard. After serving fortwo years, he enlisted in the regular Army in 1897. He was a member of General Miles' ex peditionary force to Porto Rico in the Spanish-American War. In 1899 he was commissioned a Sec ond Lieutenant in the Nineteenth United States Infantry. Shortly after receiving his commission be :.waa as signed to the Twenty-first infantry and sent to the Philippines, serving there for two and one-half years during the Philippine insurrection. He was pro moted to First Lieutenant in 1901. Returning to the United States, he served in garrison at Fort Keogh, Mont.; Fort Yates. N. D., and Fort Snelling, Minn., until February, 1905, when he again went to the Philippines. This time he was assigned to duty on the island of Samar. He saw active campaigning during the Puluhan insur rection. In 1907 he returned to the United States and served at Fort Logan, Colo., until 1909, when he went to the Philippines on his third tour of duty there. He was stationed for two and one-half years on the island of Min danao, under General , Pershing, now in command of the Mexican expedition ary force, in his operations against, the Moros. In 1911 he was made Captain, and in 1912 returned to the United States. He was sent to Vancouver, Wash., as Regi mental Adjutant of the Twenty-first Infantry, until detailed as inspector-instructor of the Oregon National Guard. He was' appointed Colonel of the Third Infantry, Oregon National Guard, February 2, 1915, succeeding Colonel Martin. PRESIDENT CALLS GUARD (Continued From First Pag:e. Secretary Baker, Major-General Scott, Chief of Staff; Major-General Bliss, Chief of the mobile army, and Brigadier-General Mills, chief of the mili tia division General staff. Brigadier- General McCombs, president' of the Army War College, also was consulted. Since Mr. Baker did not find It neces sary to confer again with President Wilson after his late visit to the White House last night, it was apparent the decision to bring out the nulltia was reached then. By the new orders, there will be placed at General Funston's disposal two Major-Generals and 21 Brigadier- Generals of militia, with their complete Infantry commanus. 1148 Companies Are Called. The entire infantry divisions from New York and Pennsylvania are called out. as are 15 full brigades from other states. In all, 88 regiments of infantry, with 13 separate battalions and many separate companies are affected. giV' ing a total of 1148 companies, each of which must have a minimum strength of 65 men when mustered into the Fed eral service. The total enlisted force of infantry, therefore, would be not less than 85,000 men. Fewer than 500 companies, scattered throughout the country, will not be mustered and the National Guard Coast Artillery companies have not been sum moned. All of the field artillery, cav airy; engineer and signal corps troops will be employed, as will many of the militia field hospitals and ambulance companies. The War Department has on hand ample equipment and clothing to outfit and maintain this force. Other Branches Affected. The call applies to 79 batteries of field artillery, 99 troops of cavalry and one New lorn cavalry machine gun troop. 25 engineer companies and 29 signal companies. Twenty-six ambu lance companies and 27. field hospitals also have been ordered made ready for entrainment. No indication was given at the State Department tonight of the course to be pursued with regard to the reply to General Carranza's note demanding the withdrawal of the American troops now in Mexico. It had Been Intended to dis patch it to Mexico City tomorrow by special messenger, out recent develop ments may change this plan. Official reports that recent raid. along the border had caused alarm among American residents in Mexico City and elsewhere by the border were reflected today in a message received at the Mexican i-inbasey from General Car- INFANTRY, O. N. G. M'LAUGHLIX. ranza. Il said that excitement pre vailed at the Mexican capital over the ominous signs along the border and asked filiseo Arredondo, Ambassador designate, to tell the first chief what he had learned of the intentions of the Washington Government toward Mex ico. In reply, Mr. Arredondo included a copy of Secretary Baker's statement announcing the call for the militia. Carranza's Situation Serious). When officials here heard of to night's message to the embassy, they construed it as a further indication that the de facto government was struggling with elements within Mex ico over which it had little control. For three months the economic situ ation, which General Carranza has been attempting to solve without foreign financial aid, has been growing stead ily worse. The Washington. Government has watched with growing alarm the spread of disorders through Mexico and the evidences that Carranza's con trol over his army and his people was waning from day to day. Up to the time General Trevino served notice on General Pershing last week that any movement of his troops except toward the border would be treated as a hostile act, there was no clear indication as to Carranza's own attitude. His intentions still are some what in doubt, although the fact that he is said to have personally directed Trevino s action leaves little ground tor suspicion on that score. Pershing Likely to Remain. The question remaining to be set tled is whether General Carranza will go to the limit of ordering an attack on General Pershing's troops. There is no indication that President Wilson has any intention of weakening in his determination to keep the expedition where it is. It is also evident, how ever, that the Administration has no present purpose of ordering renewed i ctivities after bandits by the column, f xcept in the limited zone in which .1 has been operating with signal sue cess for some weeks. General Pershing's recent reports have indicated that he has succeeded in clearing out all or ganized bands of outlaws in the vicinity oi ms camps.

Until mobilization of the Oregon National Guard is completed, the headquarters of the Adjutant General, in the Morgan build ing, will be closed for every thing but official business. Adjutant-General White em phasized last night that no visi tors or applicants for commis sions will be received. Figures available last night indicate that 1050 Oregon National Guardsmen, exclusive of commissioned officers and auxiliary organization, are affected by the call for service on the Mexican border. Of the number. 850 are in the infantry, 126 in the field artillery and 78 in the cavalry. In the Coast Artillery S77 men and non-commissioned officers are avail able, but this branch has not been called out- This brings the total ready to go to 1631 men. The total number of non-commis sioned officers and enlisted men in the Third Infantry, as shown by the latest available figures in the office of the Adjutant-General, is 893. The figures given for the headquarters company, supply company, machine-gun company and sanitary corps are not included, as these commands are made up for the most part of men detached from other commands. A conservative estimate of the non-tommissloned officers and men available for duty lr the Third Infan try made by Colonel McLaughlin put the number at about S50. Exclusive of the Sanitary Corps, the strength of the eight companies of Coast Artillery in the state is ap proximately 577 non-commissioned of ficers and men. Following is a complete list of the various organizations of the Oregon National Guard, with the location and present strength of each unit, fatar () preceding name of officer indicates that he served in Spanish war or fnu lpplne Insurrection.
