: WASHINGTON AROUSED BY REPORT
-Washington, March 9. First report of the Mexican
I fafd 'on Columbus, N. M.; was i-eceived at thelWhitel louse
.while President Wilson was having his first conference
with Newton L. Baker, the hew Secretary of War. :
. Officials admitted that the raid put a verv' serious as
pect 'on the Mexican situation. While the policy of the
-mlBun i i t ra t i o n n o fa r ha s- been to look to the ( anranzn
forces t 'eal with the bandits, some officials declare that
it was a grave situation whether such 'a raid "as 'that, on
Columbus was, not sufficient evidence of inability of the
-Carranza government to deal with the situation'to war
rant sending American troops over the line.
