Alvaro Ob- | regon, sole candidate for the Mexican | presidency, was in danger Saturday when an excited army subaitern or- dered troops to fire upon a crowd which was scattering before a riotous demon- startion by political adherents. { The affair started when two rival|| political factions clashed during a pa- | rade which was organized in honor of Gen. Obregon. The crowd ran away| from the combat and swarmed toward troops who lined the route of the pro- | cession just as Obregon's automobile | reached the place. | The officer in charge of that secllon| of the troops ordered his men to fire | |on the crowd.
