ABILITY IS PRAISED
BY AN EYE - V
Battle Near American Border
Carried on Along Modern
Lines, It Is Declared.
MASSED FORMATION USED
Bstirsd Army Officer of Portland Gets
Xtter Trent Brother Who Xa
Oa the Border.
An Interesting commentary on the
fighting; abilities of the Mexican troops
and tbe military strategy employed, by
their leaders Is contained liv a letter
received recently In Portland by a re
tired army officer from his brother,
an officer In the regular army now
stationed on the Mexican border.
After havln seen both the Filipino
and the Mexican in action he concludes
that th latter is the better fighter.
Not only have the Mexican tacticians
made full use of American tactics but
recently, guided by the successes of
the German troops, he observes that
they have taken to the mass forma
tions of the kaiser's troops.
-A portion of his letter having to do
with warfare between roo factlonlsts
In Mexico Just,.over the American line
follows:
Flan of Attack Praised.
"I happened to be near the boundary
line at the time preparations were being-
made by Villa for the attack; tbe
dispositions were well made; first,' a
line of skirmishers acting as ground
xcouts at wide Intervals, followed at
five or six hundred yards by the first
attacking line and this latter line fol
lowed by two or three lines at abort
the same distance with small reserves
held in the rear.
"The cavalry operated on the left
bank (away from the boundary line)
and the artillery In rear of the center
about 3000 yards distant under cover.
"The advance was deliberate and
almost copied from our own drill reg
ulations though I see now Instead of
a succession of thin lines up to point
of assault they are now resorting to
mass formations copied from the Ger
mans. Even the English have tried
this latter formation.
"There is no question about the brav
ery of the Mexican individual. They
seemed not to mind being under fire
but I noticed the attackers did not de
liver the assault through the wire en
tanglemens. '
Attackers Draw Off.
"At no time did the line get closer
than 400 yards and after (an exchange
of a terrible fusillade accompanied and
supported by artillery, they drew off
toward Naco (west). The retreat was
across the front of the fortified town
of Agua Prleta and but little was
done to harrasu the column or to ef
fect captures.
"Calles sent out a few hundred cav
alry, but these were promptly chased
back by Villa's cavalry. Calles lost
the. opportunity of his career In not
ending out about 8000 or 4000 infan
try, and some light field pieces;' had
he done this he would have captured a
,bt part of Villa's trains.' They pay
Calles hasn't much nerve.
"Both sides did remarkably well In
keeping their fire from entering 'Uni
ted States territory but of course in
cident to so much, firing a few hundred
bullets wildly aimed were bound to
stray; many shrapnel burst on our side
CO and 100 yards from our trenches
but did no harm.
"Calles had about 34 pieces of ar
tillery of three or four inches. Villa
had about $6 pieces one pounders and
S or 4 Inch pieces. Villa's fire (ar
tillery) mostly went high; most of the
shooting was after dark. As a rule
the artillery on both sides was, poorly
handled. '
Better Than Tlliplnos.
"I believe they would have made a
determined Stand against us unless the
attack wan very suddenly made at
the very start; we would have had
both ends of their trenches banked and
made short work of the proposition.
"Villa had about 200 or 300 killed,
although some say this is too high.
Calles bad about 36 killed and 85 or
76 wounded. Quite surprising consid
ering great amount pf firing done. Are
now seasoned and better fighters than
the Filipinos, In my belief."
Japanese Beauty shot
