When it is revealed by the reports to General Funston that the Carranza troops were involved as well as the mob in attacking the small party of men under Major Tompkins, it is made evident that that ill feeling which has been referred to so frequently since the border was crossed s mot all dmagination. Either those-people have ‘een given an erroncous idea regard- ing the purpose of the expedition or else they are so much opposed to it {that they are willinz to stand in the ‘way of any effort which means the Presence of United States troops on HMexican sofl, even tiough it is for the purpose of putting an end to the ban- @it chief and his sympathizers who have been keeping the country in an uproar for so long n period. The Cerranza soldiers appear to have assumed no more responsibility for protecting the small detachment under Major Tompkins than did the civilians and they failed utterly in checking whatever demonstration was started in opposition to the entrance into the town of the small party under. the sanction of the Carranza general. all its fury and curning. - STEADILY HELPING JAPAN.
