Carrantlst troops In the southern portions of the state of Chihuahua art being moved nearer to the contracted American lines, according to Information re ceive! here today. General Trevlno, commander of the le facto government's northern army, Is closing In on General Per shing's base near Colonla DuMan. Carranzlsta reinforcements continue to arrive at Villa Ahumada. These movements are believed by military officers here to be the fore runner of an attack upon the Am erlcan expedition sbonld relations between the two governments reach the breaking point. The negro cavalrymen captured at CarrUal and released from Chihua hua prison were among the first to see the 23 horses returned by the de facto government late yesterday on their arrival at Fort Bliss. With shouts of Joy the Carrlzal heroes made a mad rush to see If among those recovered were their favorite chargers. Much affection was shown for the horses by tbe colored men. El Paso,' July 1. Today a tented city of several thousand militiamen Is coming Into existence on the cac tus-decked plain near Fort Bliss. Before the end of the coming week there will be an army of 25,000 na tlonal guardsmen stretching from El Paso to Columbus, N. M, Tbey will gradually assume patrol duties of over 6,000 regulars, who csn be rushed Into Mexico to join General Pershing's column. Local authorities believe Carranza's state ment from Mexico City yesterday might lesd to tbe punitive expedition being reinforced. While the militia's sdvsnce on the border is screened by an official el lence, 10,000 from Pennsylvania and New Jersey are the vanguard expect ed here today. ' ' Regulars at Fort Bllsa were bard at work this mornlntc. clearing the new camp site of mesqulte and cac tus. The regulars relieved by the ar rival of the guardsmen wilt bo held in momentary readiness for a dash Into Mexico, should trouble further develop. The latest estimate of the Amerl can army now In Mexico is about 11,000 men. Even reinforced by the 6,000 regulars, Pershing will bare only a third of tbe number the Car ranxa government has concentrated In a horseshoe formation around Pershing.
