WILSON ORDERS HRIZA TO RELEASE PRISONERS; 15,000 TROOPS TO BORDER LANSING DISPATCHES NOTE TO GARRANZA President Wilson Summoned Foreign Affairs Committee Heads to White House for Sunday Night Conference on Mexican Situation. NOTE IS RECEIVED FROM DE FACTO GOVERNMENT States That Carrlzal Fight Was Direct Result of Boldlers Moving Other wlee Than Towarda the border aa Ordered by Carranza and Communi cated to General Pershing. 38,000 MILITIAMEN IN EAST GO IN CAMPS New York.—Mors than 38,000 of the 128,000 National Guards men of the Department of the East, comprising 22 states east of the Mississippi and Dlstrlot of Columbia, wsrs In mobiliza tion csmps Sundsy night, six days sfter the call was Issued, according to the report forward ed to the War Department by Major General Wood, command ing the department. Of this number Massachusets contribu ted 8,000 and New Jersey 5,000. Washington.—A demand for the Im mediate release ot the American troop ers taken prisoner at Carrlzal coupled with a stern notification that the Unlt ed States expects an early statement of the purposes of the Carranza Gov ernment was telegraphed to Mexico CHy by Secretary Lansing. The note discloses that the State Department received a communication from the de facto Government stating that the Carrlzal fight was the direct result of orders to attack American soldiers moving otherwise than to wards the border personally issued by General Carranza to General Trevlno and by the latter communicated to General Pershing. In reply Secretary Lansing requires that the de facto Government transmit a (leflntte statement "as to the course of action It has determined upon," through the usual diplomatic channels, 'and not through subordinate military officers'." The Mexican communication Is con strued, Secretary Lansing states, "as a formal avowal of deliberately hos tile action against the forces of the United States now In Mexico and of the purpoee to attack without provo cation whenever they move from their preeent position despite the friendly mission on which they are enfcaged and which is re-affirmed in the Amer ican rejoinder. White House Confers nee. General Carranxf is required to place himself on record formally and the plain intimation Ilea behind the restrained language of Mr. Lansing's communication that force will be met with force. Apparently, however, the Washington Government is determin ed that the de facto Government shall not evade responsibility before the world if war is forced upon th£ United States. The note and the military situation of the United State# were talked over at the White House by the President with Chairman Stone, of the Senate Foreign Relatione Committee, Senator Lodge, ranking Republican member, and Chairman Flood of the Houais Committee on Foreign Affaire. Rep resentative Cooper, ranking minority member of the Hons* Committee, waa out of the city. After the conference which lasted more than aa hour. Senator Stone ■aid the situation was "exceedingly acute." The President had felt It necessary to acquaint Congress with the state of affairs and the action taken, through the Foreign Affairs Committee. It waa Indicated that be might desire to addrsas a joint sea■ nlon of the House and Senate in a day or two, but would not take this Anal step until the Mexican Govern ment had been given an opportunity to reply. Warlike Say* Stone. The President told those at the con ference of the note from Oeneral Car ran za avowing the attack on Ameri can troops at Carrisal, sod ei the re ply that he had directed to be sent. Senator Stone was very emphatic afterwards In regard to the demand for release of the prisoners. "We must have thoee men," he said solemnly. The Senator made no effort to Wde his own belief that war virtually is here. A final report from General Pershing was necessary, he said, in Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Kenedy. This is a remedy that every fam ily should be provided with, and especially during the summer months. Think of the pain and suf fering that must be endured when medicine must be sent for before relief can be obtained. This reme dy Is thoroughly reliable. Ask any one who has used it Obtainable everywhere. •>. order that a clew knowledge of what had happened at C&rrixal should be at hand. "But if they are going to attaok our men without cause,' h* laid, "there la only one thing to do. We will nerer hare peace down there until we u*e force enough to compel It." There Is reason to believe that the military situation may be influencing the Administration's diplomatic course, as well as the desire to make It clear to the world and particularly to the Latin-American Nations that the Unit ed States is being forced Into warlike measures by hostility of Oeneral Car ran za. The War Department Is making every effort to speefl up mobilization o the National Guard. A few com panies have been mustered In. Others will take th«4)ath, at once. In 48 hours, probably, a substantial force will be en route to the border to back up General Funston's line. Muat First Be Rsady. It mar be four or five day*, how ever, before War Department official! would (eel safe In withdrawing regu lars from the border patrol to form the catting edge of whatever forca they may hart to the support ot Gen eral Pershing's column, should aggres sive action be ofdered. It seems doubtful that a formal dip lomatic rupture will be forced before adequate military precautions are pos sible, particularly aa It has been Indi cated that quick, drastic action. Is PresldeM Wilson's desire should Gen eral Carranza forca the use of the army attains* htm. Mr. Wilson's visitors sought light on these questions. Specific figures were not available as to the garrison? at various border towns, the number of guardsmen who have responded to the President's call, or the time that would be required to get the entire forca to the border. These details have been left to the War Department and Secretary Baker was not present ait the conference. The general situ ation was presented, however, and theme Is reason to suppose that the For-1 elgn Affairs Committeemen opproved the President's coarse. No Talk of Mediation. One fact as to the conference Is significant. There was no discussion of the possibility of mediation. The subject was not mentioned either by the President or his callers,- Senator Stone said. This statement came in the face of a formal notification to Elieeo Arre dondo, Mexican ambassador designate, by, his government, that it approved the principle of mediation as pro posed by seceral Latin-American countries. Mr. Arrendondo expected early authorization to begin conversa tions with fats Latln-Amertcan col leagues herst an effort to divert the crisis to peaceful channels. There waa no Indication that any diplomat had attempted to sound Sec retary Lansing in this respect. It is known, however, that he holds that the United States has noth ing to mediate since its only object Is the protection of Its own borders. He has formally notified all Latin- American diplomats that the Washing ton government has no aggreelve pur pose toward Mexico, but Is resolved to free Its citizens along the border of the danger of bandit raids. ■RINOINO A LETTER TO PRESIDENT WILSON !

Ban Antonio, Texas. —Left to die of loss of blood and thirst, two miles from the scene of the encounter be tween Mexican and American troops at Carrlzal, Capt. . Lewis Sydney Morey of the Tenth Cavalry has mode back to the American lines. Oeneral Funston received by tele phone from Mrß. Morey, now at Austin, Tex., the following message which reached her by wireless from the field: "Homowlicre In Mexico. Am back oh the line with two men, safe. "SYDNEY." That, according to Mrs. Morey, was the manner in which Captain Morey signed all communications to her. A letter from Captain Morey written while hiding in a hole near the sceno of the light at Carrlzal, after his men had been broken and scattered by the Mexican force, was received by General Funston through General Pershing. Lstter Tells of Ambush. In that letter Captain Morey had described how, fearing an ambush, the American troopers had advanced In battle formation on the Mexicans who had come out from Carrlzal dur ing a parely over permission for the Americans to pass through the town; how the Mexicans had opened fire, and how the remaining Americans had been forced to retreat and scat tar, each for himself. Army officers here hope that the return of Captain Morey will serve to provide tho mis sing links in the story of tho encount er at Carrlxal and determine the fate of each member of the little recon nolterlng expedition. How Captain Morey managed to make his way to the American main column, a distance of more than 80 miles, is unknown here, but it Is In ferred he was picked up by a de tachment of the rescuing force sent out by General Pershing. He was without food or water In a desert country and It Is believed his suffer ings must have been Intense.

Hughes for President. The vote was 32 to 6. with nine declining to vote on the ground that the commit tee was exceeding Its power In taking such action. By a vote of 31 to 16 the committee went on record as opposed to putting a third ticket In the field. The com mute* voted down a motion to sub stitute the name of Victor Murdock, of Kansas, to nil the vacancy caused by the declination of Theodore Roose velt to head the Progressive ticket. The fight for the Hughes Indorse ment was led by George W. Perkins of New York; James It. GarflQld of Ohio, and Chester H. Howell of Cali fornia. The radical element In the commit tee, represented by Matthew Hale of Masachusetts, Balnbridge Colby of New York, Henry V. Cochems of Wis consin, John M, Parkor of Louisiana, vigorously protested against the in dorsement of any candidate for Presi dent and fought the majority at every step of the proceedings. The minor ity's first move was to Insist on an open session of the committee and It won this point after a number of com mitteemen led by John M. Parker, bolted the -meeting. After Oscar King Davis, secretary of the committee, had read a lotter from Colonel Roosevelt filially de clining the Progressive nomination for President and urging that Mr Hughes be supported by members o the Progressive parly In order to de feat President Wilson, the committee voted to accept Colonel Roosevelt's declination and took a recess for luncheon.
