Juarez. June 21. (T. N. S.) A cal.
to all Mexicans to enlist in the army
and aid in the defense of the father
land was posted here today by Genera'.
Jacinto Trevino, Carranzlsta military
commander of the state of chihuahua.
The posting of the notice caused in
tense excitement.
Juarez authorities are sending all
.customs house records to the Interior.
This indicates that the Carranza gar
rison will evacuate Juarex at the first
sign of hostilities.
El Paso. Texas. June 21. (IT. p.)
General Carranza is reported to have
called to Mexico City collectors of cus
toms at border points, ordering them
to bring all the money of their olfices
with them.
Mexico City, June 21. (IT. P.)
General Carranza and his cabinet met
In special reasion this afternon to con
sider the American note.
Carranza and all members of the
cabinet denied themselves to newspaper,

They sent out word that they would

Until after the session adjourned.
It is probable that the discussion will
last several hours.
Washington, June 11. TJ. P.) In
view of the incomplete mobilization of
the trrtlltla, the war department inA
cated it would probably not issue or

can border today.
The first group of American militia
men detailed for border service will
doubtless be en route before the week
end. Officials believe the militia may
ace service on Mexican soil.
.What state's militia will be first to
go has not been revealed, though the
consignment will undoubtedly be be
yond 60,000, thus Involving assign.
ments from many states.
May Call Volunteers.
Unofficial report told of Carranza
troops movements dangerous near to
the American expedition and of out
bursts against Americans at more
tliun one point.
The method of calling volunteers Is
not yet worked out. Such a step will
be taken only when developments re
quire It. It has been discussed, offi
cials admit. Reports that 500,000 will
be asked for If the call comes are ap
parently exaggerated.
While the navy department has not
yet ordered a blockade of Mexican
ports this step may be expected at any
moment.
To Watch Ammunition.
In the meantime, every precaution
will be taken to guard against con
signments of ammunition from Amer
ican ports to Mexico.
- President Wilson keeps in the closest
touch with the situation. At a mld
fiight conference with Secretary Baker
the question of dispatching more
troops was discussed.
A Censorship, tighter than hereto

Buenos Aires, June 21. (U. P.) All
South America today focused its atten

awaiting eagerly General. Carranza's
next move in reply to the American
note.
The Latin-American association is
sued a call for a mass meeting of pro
test against American occupation of
Mexican territory. The call for the
meeting mentioned the "intervention
ist tendencies -of the United States
southward.' vaguely hinting that in
terventionists in the United States
threatened the safety of other Latin
American republics-
The Argentine papers are divided
in their sympathies.
La Nacion, the most influential
newspaper In Argentine, attributes
Mexico's present plight to outlawry,
which Ca-ranza Is evidently Impotent
to prevent. While practically admit
ting the e::ietence of a strong njcleus
of sympathy In South America for
Mexico, La Nacion adds:
"But the attitude of the United
States deserves a tranquil view . as
long as it maintains a guarantee of
Mexican territorial Integrity."
The newspaper Razon publishes i

suggests that possibly other nations
may be Interested, mentioning no
