TROOPS WILL NQI (Coatlnned from page one.") Storm Broke Wires and Stopped Wedding Portland, Or., June ID If it had not been for a thunderstorm, Miss Hat tie lludnut, age IS, would have been Mrs. Arthur Itruggnr.s today. The storm rudely broke the long '.itunc telephone wires Friday nigut in the midst of a telephone wedding cere mony, liruggers was at Hnive, Mont., nud Miss Hudniit in Portland. Miss Hud nut is a telephone operator. Her fiance called her by telephone. "Let's get uiairied light now," lie sugested, adding that he had a minis ter and a license with hun. The girl assented.

While parleying with ( Mexican officers at the wharf, a drunk I en Japanese nearby, in the excitement of the occasion, fired on the two Amer j iean officers who had landed. The men in the launch, thinking they had been i fired on by the Mexicans opened fire. 1 1'ue Mexican soldiers then arrested th two officers and returned the American j fire. Although few shots were fired, 1 two Mexican soldiers and one civilian ) were wounded. This closed the inci i dent. "Afterwards explanations were ex 1 changed regarding the incident nnd the I Mexican authorities explained that the 'Japanese fired first. The American ot-i , fieers were then released." j Secretary liaker this afternoon said ho had no information that General! !

Inert is no inclination to heed , Trevino's word and army men would! not be surprised if Pershing's men! should be moved about slightly, though,, in the main, the intention is for them I to remain as they are. America's Mailed Fist. j Washington, June 1!'. America V mailed fist confronts the Carranz.n gov-: eminent today. Orders for practically i all state militia service, backed by dis patch of more fighting ships and trans ports, constitutes the threat. Jt is the administration's last trump card tuj quiet a troublesome situation. It' tins last trump doesn't take the trick, of ficials fear war will follow'. Some administration officials today 'frankly admitted a fear that dispatch of 1110,000 more men lo the border may cause some of the more reckless of Car run .a commanders to commit an act that could have only one result. Officials seemed certain the mailed j fist will have the desired effect. They I believed, though, that the 1'nited States I w ill be thorouidilv nreimred bv the 'latest step for anything that develops! i below the boundary. I j Calling the miiitin does not now i men u intervention. The policy is still j ; to keep General Pershing's column where it is and to strengthen the border i patrol so much as to end the recent out- j I burst of banditry. I The most disturbing thing in a mass , j of perplexing rumors and facts was the report that Carranzn had sent an ulti-i matiiin, ""demanding; American troop: withdrawal within a week. I Carranza Is Powerless. i I Behind the militia call last night of-; H'icials admitted that the Carran.a gov-; l eminent is grow ing gradually weaker i ; v i 1 li a conseipient possibility of troubli'l ' between that reyinie anil the Cnited i j States. I j The big underlying thing is the econ- j ' omic situation. It is extremely bad, I I according to official reports. This re- acts for trouble by creating a chaotic, I condition and by stimulating banditry! j among men whose only sustenance seems i to liw in loot. I The militia call, officials hoped may I cause Carranza to make extreme efforts' i to hold his men in check. But these Isnme officials admitted n fear that the! j cull may fan the Mexican . populace j I into such indignant anti-Americanism : that a break cannot be averted. Certain-1 1 Iv in some Mexican quarters, the news; will be taken as meaning a preparation ; for a war. authorities said. I The orders issued last night contem , flate having about lUflMO more men I ready for border work. Where nnd ! when thev will be sent deuends on Gen 'ernl Fuiistoti's orders. Thev are or- idered to mobilize and camp in their j I respective states. The troops will not j :be sent nt once to boundary. The wnrj i department contemplates reliefs so tliat ; the entire force fay not have to be ir constant service. i Administration men said today this will prove n big test of how strongly i the American pede want preparedness Their response to the mil it in call will lip closely watched, but from reports (already in the department, the national I guards of numerous states are really 'anxious and willing to go. j Mexicans Cannot Be Controlled. I The fact that Hie American troopers in the fight Saturday below Ranchito! were not actually engaged witu He tacte I government forces, and came out un scathed, caused rejoicing Here today. i The big fear Saturday night was that this might spell the beginning of tip end. provoking intervention through clash with Carranza 's men. All outward signs except Carranzn 's reported will drnwnl ultimatum point to nn effort by Carranza and his authorities to keep their men in check. Behind it. however, is a growing disposition among some Carranza officials to be more stren uous ill demands upon the I'nited States perhaps for home consumption, ! nut certainly in a way that displeases this government. The demands of Gen- 'eral Trevino that Pershing's forces do j not move except out under pnin of nj i Mexican attack, is still regarded here ns ! a part of ..lexican bombast which will! j go unheeded, j Army men openly express the feat I that neither Carranza nor his command- i ers w ill lie able to prevent an attack on j Pershing's column and conseipient pre-! icipitatioti of intervention. Should thif i 'occur, they said, war without doubt will I I follow. j I It is feared, too, thai the elnly ter ! niiiintiou of the chase, would have a sa I lulirioiis effect oa "future bandit raids ifeneral Pershiug's army of l't UdO well! seasoned men.

Carranza,' s Cavalry Moves. (ienerul Pershing's men are entrench-' ed at strategic points. No frontal at-1 tack by Cnirnnza's troops was antici pated, i A comparatively few Kl Paso hus-i bands and fathers planned to send their women and children to northern cities. ! Information that 10,000 Mexican troops I were hidden ill hills within 20 miles of Juarez and its 400 garrison led to! fears that Kl I'aso may be attacked. ! "T am prepared for an enieigencv, " ; said lleneral George Hell, Jr., eomniaud iifg the 5.0U0 American troops nt Fort Bliss. "In case of an attack on Kl Paso, our military w ill be ready to meet the invading forces a tiood ac- c.flnnt of itself." Battery A of the New Mexico state miiitin ntid a battalion of the Twen tieth S. infantry arrived in Kl Paso last tght to reinforce the troops sta tioned at Fort Bliss. Local authorities received word that Carranza cavalry had left Villis Ahu mada fit;: Kl Valle, which is between the American bases tit C, Ionia Dnblau and Naniiquipa. General Pershing wns repoited to have only a third of his forces below Colonia Dubbin and the Carranza move was interpreted to be in preparation to cut off their retreat. Tne Nnmiquipa base has been strengthened by planting field artillery on high bluffs commanding miles of the surrounding country. Carranza 's stand against the contin ued presence of American troops on Mexican soil is reported to have re sulted in a wave of pnrtiotism sweep ing Mexico. The defacto governments armies are being recruited to their ut most strength. General Trevino of Chiahuahua is reported to have met President Wil son's military order with a call for Mexican volunteers. A lnrge number of Kl Paso Mexicaas went to Juarez and enlisted. Mexican Consul Garcia sent his family away, but insisted that he would not close his consulate here.
