Nrudford is tbo second United Klates coldicr to bo struck by Mexi can bullets since Mayloreim and bis Villa udhorents bepnn their attack four days njo on the 3Ce,Mcau town. Private Wilson of tbo same cavalry troop, was bit Sunday. Casualties on the American side of the line now total three the soldiers nnd n boy who was bit in the band by a stray bullet yesterday. Two cavalry horse also have been shot. This loss on the non-combatant side is almost as jrrent as those suffered by the con tending Mexican forces. United States nrmv officers re ported today that their men have been subjected to Mexican fire every time they stand up in their obser vation trenches 200 vnrds north of boundary monument No. 112. Captain Holcomb, commanding troop II, tenth cavalry, nam n machine pin wns turned on his men yesterday and six teen bullets flew over their heads.

N'ovor since its stnrt has the battlo Of the Alsnc, which hna now beebmo virtually a siege ot tbo Herman posi tions on the OIso and north ot this river, shown such a dearth of news as on this 2!th day of the struggle. Tito Uritlsh Information bureau, never very diffuse, completely closed down on current events from tho front several days ago and tt prob ably will so continue until Sir John French, the commander ot tho llrit lsh expeditionary force, puts his army In motion again. Tho rotlcence of tho Paris official communication last night was oven mora marked than usual. It fur nished no Inkling of what had hap- pcnciU after tho Germans "had forced tho French to yield ground at certain points" on tho all-lmport-nnt western wing. It Is argued hero that these In termittent variations aro inevitable and not necessarily Important In such a bard fought combat, through out which given positions aro taken and re-taken and taken again many times. That tho allies, for tho moment, possess greater mobility than their foes, seems to bo indicated by the nows that they have been able to raid tho German lines of communication, cut a railroad and destroy a train belonging to the artillery of tho Ger man Imperial guard. As to tho enormous wastngo In horses progresses. It Is claimed for tho allies that their possibilities for such movements will Increase while those of their opponents decrease. German cavalrymen on bicycles al ready aro a common sight, and tho Russian advance which Is cutting Germany off from the horse produc ing districts ot Hungarian must, If maintained, further Increase the shortage In re-mounts.
