Apprehension was felt today for the safety of ranch ers in the isolated stretches west of here. The bandits are reported near the scene of the murders of William Parker and bla wife a fortnight ago. The new band is said to be fully armed and well mounted. Natives re ported only 30 Mexicans in the band but recruits may have joined since. The leader, whose name was not learned, offered recruits the lure of loot on the American side and later the prospect of Joining some Mexican faction. ARRANGEMENTS ARE UNDER WAY TO HOLD PEACE CONFERENCE Washington. July 13. (I. N. S.) Preliminary arrangements were made at the state department tr-.ay between Acting Secretary Polk and Eliseo Ar redondo, Mexican ambassador-designate, for conferences to devise means for" protecting the Mexican border and apree upon withdrawal of United States troct'S from Mexico. Henry P. Fletcher, ambassador to Mexico. Domlnlco Da CJama. Brazilian ambassador to the United States, and Charles A. Douglas, Carranza's attor ney In Washington, also were at the state department in the Interest of a friendly understanding between the two governments. Commission Will Hare Charge. Ambassador Da Qama was under stood to have reported on the conduct of American Interests In Mexico when the Brazilian minister in Mexico City std charge of United States affaira there. It was Indicated that the solution of the border trouble will be the special charge of a commision to be created Jointly by Mexico and the United States. The commission would be com posed of civilians and military experts, but Its composition and time of meet ing have not been definitely decided upon. It was asserted today that General FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL $82S VICTROLA AND TEN DOUBLE FACED RECORDS Fifteen Months to Pay COUPON or Your Money Back 2? SHOW ATTRACTS INTEREST Tasker II. Bliss, assistant chief of staff, who Is en route to the border to confer with General Funston, will be associated with the commission. Army officers believed there could be no com position of the difficulties, according to the Carranza program, unless the withdrawal of the Pershing expedition is first considered. It waa predicted- that within three days General Pershing's expedition would begin a movement toward the border to convince the de facto govern ment of th' tfood faith of the United States. flay Suggest Withdrawal. An army officer said: "General Pershing is expected to re port to the war department the inex pediency of keeping the army Inactive in Mexico. This will appear as a vol untary suggestion, but the war and state departments know that Carranza will not enter into any arrangement that does not Include the retreat of the American forces ..cross the border. "General Pershing's report will re lieve the present situation. With such a report from General Pershing the commission, or Acting Secretary Po'.k and Ambassador Arredondo will find it very easy to agree upon all other details and an apparently satisfactory solution will have been reached." The army demands, however, that both regular troops and the national, guard be retained on the border, as further invasions of the American ter ritory by bandits are considered cer tain. Some state department officials de clared today that reports from Mexico indicate that conditions in that coun try are growing worse daily, that the nation faces starvation and the eco nomic situation is intolerable. They said that the situation con fronting the United States is one of facts, not a question of real or of theoretical national rights and that It Is beyond the power of any commission or the province of any nation to solve the problem. They insist that the only solution is Intervention. Headed for OJinaga. 8an Antonio, Texas, July 13. (U.
