The Carraiiza government is taking
steps to nip a new revolution In the
bud. Generals Salazar, Arroyo and
Caraveo are among the 150 suspects
arrested In Chihuahua City, according
to today's s-dvices.
They are held for investigation of a
reported pi t by a new party, "the
Ix'saiihlas," who are said to be backed
by Mexican exiles and American in-tere.-"is
dealing intervention.
An offic.ai in close touch with Mexi

secret s-.-rvice men are watching rtvo

Americans who crossed the river at
Juarez today were carefully scruti
nized and questioned by Carranza of
ficials, who declared Americans are
uctive in the alleged revolutionary
plot.
Precautions Are Taken.
Precautions were taken at Juarez
ar.d Chihuahua City to guard against
a mutiny in the Carranzista garrisons.
According to official authority, the re
cent defection of Colonel Mariano
Tames in Juarez was an outcropping
of the projected revolt.
Tne "l,eKalistas" are a party of
; wealthy Mexican exiles, many residing
in ios Angeles, San Antonio and other
; American cities, whose legal claims to
I great
areas and mineral riches in
I Mexico are endangered by Carranzista
reforms.
Information received by El Faso
military men indicated that the des
ultory Carranzista pursuit of Villa
has been abandoned entirely, al-tho-ich
Ids hid ng place was said to

de facto government troops.

An undercurrent of restlessness
and impending revolt amfwig the na
tives in northern Mexico is alarming
military men on the border who fear
r.ew complications may result. Car
ranzista authorities are making every
effort to prevent a threatened rebel
lion brought on by an enforced fiat
currency and famine.

Militia Ordered to Border.
Washington, Aug. 12. (I. N. 8.)
Thirty thousand national guardsmen,
all that remain in the mobiliza'ion
camps of the country, have been or
dered to the Mexican border as fast
as they can be equipped and transpor
ta'lon for them can be obtained, the
war department announced today.
The order, it was learned, was is
sued three days ago, but news of it
was suppressed until today. Acting
under it. the South Carolina guards
men and probably militia from other
states also ar now tn rout to the
concentration camps on the frontier.
Officials of the war department ex
plained the mobilization was to carry
out fully the objects of the national
mobiliration as ordered by President
Wilson and further to give the guards
men the experience under semi-war
condition.
Reports to the state department,
however, show that the border states
of Mexico are in a pitiful economic
condition, and that the situation for
that reason and because of the in
creased numbers Of lawless bands op
erating, threatens to result in a new
revolution which would halt the nego
tiations between the L'nited States and
Carranza.
