Fighting On Border
President Taft Determined That

Affair at Agua Prieta When Amer
icans on the Streets of Douglas
Were Killed by Stray Bullets
Major General Carter Ordered to
le Prepared to Move Across the
Border at Any Moment o More
Fighting on the Boundary Line
Will be Permitted.
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Washington. April 15 United States
troops are prepared to Invade Mexico
lit an hour's untitle. This action wit
be taken if there is any more fight
ing at Agua Prietu or at Juarez,
across from El Paso.
Orders have been Issued to Major
Oeneral Carter, commanding the forces
in Sua Antonio to be prepared fur
. n rorward movement .across- the border
at anv time.
Coincident with this preparation,
President Taft through the state de
partment was warned the Mexican
government that if further fighting en
dangers the lives or property of Ameri
can citizens across the Texas lines,
troops will march into MexHco im
mediately. The Madero revolutionists, through
Dr.- Gomez and thi.- Uepa'rtmeiit of
justice have received a similar warning..-
''
SluiUld lighting occur today at Agua
Prleta, Troop K, first United States
cavalry, stationed at Douglas, across
the line from that town, will Invade
Mexico and stop the fighting, even if
It has to engage both . the Mexican
federal forces and the band of "lied"
Lopez. -.
President Tuft lias determined that
there shall be no recurrence of the
affair at Agua Prleta, where Ameri
can citizens were slain in the streets of
Douglas by Hying bullets. The war
department and the', stale.-department
this niornTng were anxiously awaiting
reports from Douglas and --KI Paso.
Oeneral. Wood. - chief 'of staff 'or Hie
miny, haH called on the commander of
Hie department of Colorado, who is
now at Fort Huahuaca, Ariz., for a
detallod report of the situation at Agua
Prieta and Douglas. ,
A report Ts also expected today from
Major Oeneral ('inter at San Anlonin.
Of almost eipial Iniportance to the
forceful action taken by this govern
ment Is the news received at the statu
department that an English warship
lauded thirty marines and a Maxim
gun at Safl tjuentin, In Lower' Cali
fornia, to protect that town from an
attack by insurrectos. This Informa
tion came from the .American -consulate
at Enseneda where the so-called
HfxMulist party Is threatening the lives
and property of foreigners. This was
the first instance of a foreign power
landing an armed force in Mexico, and
it was regarded as a further indica
tion of the developing seriousness of
the Mexican situation.
State department officials said today
that the British government Is within
If International rights in landing
marines to protect British subjects.
The shrewdness of the insurrectos.
in making their attack from the north
of Agua of Prleta so as to force its,
defenders to fire toward Douglas, Has
aroused much comment here. They are
believed to ( have recognized the pos
sibility that such a movement might,
result in complications and entangle
ment of the Mexican government with
that of the United States. ; :
Dr. Gomez, head of the revolution
ary Junta here, said this . morning:
"The revolutionary government de
ploces the deaths of any American
citizens in Douglas, resulting from the
the taking of Agua Prleta. Investi
gation will show, I am 'certain,
that the persons killed or wounded
were hit by federal bullets. All our
commanders In the field have the most
positive instructions to protect to the
utmost property and lives of Ameri
cans." -.'-., , - ..
Both Sides Notified.
Douglas, Aril... April 15 Formal no
tice of tho United States government's
ultimatum that there shall be no fight
ing upon the international boundary
line which would Jeopardize the lives
or property of Americans Was today
served upon both insurrecto and fed
eral leaders on the southern Bide of
the Rio Granfle forces of An
tonio Garcia, Senor Balsario and "Red"
Lopez reinforced with nearly 1,100
mem federal reinforcements are ..re
ported, to be .drawing near prepared
to throw out a line of soldiers 'around
ths town, ...The bloodiest; and most
to bo imminent nndimany families are
desperate battle of lhe war Is believed
preparing, to lice from Douglas In fear
of stray bullets.
Tnsurreeto leaders declared today
that a spfVndlilly mounted and armed
force of 1,200 men, most of I hem cow
boys from Arizona. New Mexico and
Texas would cross lhe line before night
for the revolutionary cause.
The liisuirectos have thrown up
breastworks south ot Agua Prleta and
established outposts. The federal re
inforcements brought machine guns
with them and several wagon trains
of provisions. '--.
Captain J. K. Oaujot. of the First
United States cavalrv, who stopped the
battle of Agua Prleta after two Ameri
cans had been killed in Douglas, has
a strong patrol force along the Hln
Grande to prevent Mexicans from
crossing Into Arizona while bearing
arms.
The. war department has Issued sev
eral orders dealing with the situation
in Douglas. The orders relating to the
Invasion of Arizona hv armed soldiers
will result, It is believed, in making
every Mexican, the fedeial or insur
recto, a prisoner of war who crosses
th ltio fJrunde with arms while hos
tilities arc in progress.
One relief corps which is rushing to
the aid of the rebels 'in Agua Prleta.
Is commanded bv the only woman of
ficer of the revolution. She Is Mine.
Talamantes, widow of an insurrecto
colonel who, with his two sons, was
taken captive bv the regular.-! at
Sahuaripa, In Chihuahua, and shot to
death. The widow, a woman of great
wealth, - to revenge the death of her
husband and children, formed a com
pany of rebels and is 'marching under
the insurrecto (lag.
England Has Not Ijtmled Troops.
London. . April IS Denial was made
at the office 'of the of the admiralty
today that England had landed a de
tachment of marines at San Quentln,
Lower California, to protect the town
against an attack bv the insurrectos.
MORE TROOPS TO
BE SENT TO DOUGLAS
Washington, April 13 Orders
were issued today for four additional
troops of cavalry to proceed at once
to Douglas to augment the torly
flve men of Troo;) K, First Cavalry
under Captain Gttjot at Douglas. 'I he
war department was advised today
that 1,200 additional insurrectos had
entered Argtia Prieta and have
thrown up intreiiehments. '1 hey nave
machine guns in their possession and
are awaiting the attack o(. the fed
erals who are said to be approaching
Agua Prieta in large numbers. Tne
additional cavalry will be rushed into
Douglas from the nearest patrol sta
tions on the border. :.,
-: Rebels Defiant.
Kl Paso, Tex.. April 1.1 In defiance
of the United States government ul
timatum the insurrectos today are pre
paring to attack Jaurez, directly across
the river from here at the Mexican
end of the International bridge. 'J lie
war plans of the rebels against Jaurez
were held In abeyance pending the
proposed negotiations of Francisco I.
Madero, Sr., with his son, Oeneral
Madero. the insurrecto cnmniunder-ln-
hlef, relative to peace. Now that the
senior Madci-o has turned back from
Mexico, declaring that he will make no
further efforts to end the revolution,
the rebel leaders in northern Chihua
hua have ordered a rendezvous of their
troops west of Juarez near the Illo
Grande.
It was reported to the junta here
today that 700 rebels have gathered
near Barreal, bO miles south of Juarez,
ready to march on the city.
The federals in Juarez are making
ready for a desperate defense. Sen
tries are stationed at outposts a few
miles outside the city limits, trench-!
es have been dug. mines planted and
cannon mounted on the roofs of the
tallest buildings to sweep the approach
es to the city.
To fate of Juarez will probably be
determined by the outcome of a race
between the Insurrectos and federals
under Colonel Antonio Rabago, who.
with from 600 to 800 calvarvmen sup
ported by machine guns, Is making
forced marches from Chihuahua.

The churcu should lay jealous hold

from losing any of its solemn and
beautitul meaning. Christian peo

the liirniture wagon, ran about fitly
yards, and as if to tie the score, it
dived headlong into Chapel Hill
street. -The animal -.slid.'- with . the
speed ot the wind and butted into
the sidewalk' within a foot or so ot a

securely that it .couldn't- rise. .
Everybody thought, ot course, the
handsome horse was dead as hector.
But when released from tue shalts,
there was not a scratch on Us botlv.
it walked off without a limp or hinl
or lameness. II, is impossible to ac

He nas not entirely decided whether
he will gj nbroad in the summer or

Mr. A vent Returns.
Mr. C. U. A vent. Uie popular est
Durham druggist, has returned Irom
Philadelphia, where he had been lor
hospital treatment. A malady of the
most malignant type has settled upon
him and it is conceded that his trip
accomplished no good. To his
friends In Dur.iatn this will be partic
ularly distressing. He was given all
that they had in the north. He was
accompanied nonie bv Dr. Clarence
Judd, who will spend ten (lavs here
and at ( Impel Hill, with perhaps
other places.
A negro bv the name of Tuck, for
merly living here, was -brought here
last night from Roxboro and placed
in Jail for safe-keeping. The indig
nation of Roxboro did not drive him
here, hut it Is understood tnat there
is fear of his breaking jail. He is a
powerful man and is quitewell re
membered In Durham, once having
worked in the Corcoran Hotel.
The particulars ol the crime are
not now available but he is caarged
with murdering another black man
in Roxboro a couple of weeks ago.
It seems that the dead man passed

and received the shot. The story may

menl and nut the states should have
control ol tne election if senators
are to be elected by the people. In
thunderous tones he told the demo

to take the power from the federal
government and give it to the states.
"I believe." said he, "in leaving
article tour, section tnree of the con
stitution as it is. The democrats tire

liin.iled that in some states, the Willi

There 'was nothing in the speech to
indicate 'hat he was casting Blurs at
anv particular section of tne coun-t
trv, nor to rile anybody but the way
the speaker shoois his head aroused;,
the animosity of Mr. Slayden, off
Texas, causing him to walk acros

stati's do you mean?'
"Many stales, ' said Mr. YoilllK.
"Well, don't shake your head atf
us: tiiere is no corruption in tb.fi
