By Martin Green. (Special Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) BROWNSVILLE, Tex., June 30.—Considering a state of war practically exists along the Mexican border, the New York troops on| their arrival in this part of Texas will find themselves in what might be] Called quarters de luxe. Brig. Gen. James Parker ‘nas selected for their use a camp site in the most salubrious and picturesque section of the southeastern Rio Grande Valley. The New York militia .egiments and auxiliaries will be camped along a ten-mile front bordering on a branch railroad running westward from Harlingen to Sam Fordy:e, Tex. Friends and relatives may locate the position of the Empire State boys by getting out their little old encyclopedias, turning to the map ot Texas and locating Brownsville, the southernmost town in tlie Statc, clese to the Gulf of Mexico and across the Rio Grande from the Mexican city of Matamoras, | It had been the intention of the War Department to locate the New |s Torkers at Brownsville, but there is no camp site available in that vicinity for such a large body. Another consideration operating against Browns- ville as headquarters for the New York troops is the fact that if called into active service across tue border, as they will be in case of war, it is planned to have them cross the Rio Grande at a point about seventy-five miles northwest of Lrownsville, where the National Rallway of Mexico | strikes off to the southwestward toward Monterey. | PLAN MOTOR DASH IF THERE'S WAR. | It 1s no violation of military confidence to say the plan of campaign | -/@mbraces the use by the New York troops of hundreds of automobiles, which will be able to transport whole regiments across country irrespective if the condition of the railroads, The residents of the valley in which the few Yorkers are to encamp have already pledged six hundred automobiles, danging from a flivver to an eight-passenger, eight-cylinder touring car for military use, and the army is soon to have in this section whole flocks of automobile trucks which can be used for the transportation of troops if the occasion arises for quick movement. To get back to the site of the New York camp. The map of Texas will show about thirty miles a little west of Brownsville the town of Harlingen, a typical frontier settlement, which was almost totally submerged in mua when the writer passed through there yesterday morning. From Herlingen the branch road feels its way westward and at a station called Pharr, about thirty-five miles from Harlingen, the New Yorker interested in the regiments of his own city and State should make a cross with a pencil, for this is to be the easternmost limit of the camp of the boys from the big town. Five miles west of Pharr {s the bustling little city of McAllen, with paved streets, electric lights, brick buildings and a per capita automobile population of almost one cei per inhabitant. Five miles west of McAllen ts Mission, an up to date town with four parks and a reputation of harboring the prettiest girls in Texas. PLENTY OF WATER FOR THE CAMP. ‘The New Yorkers will be encamped on both sides of the railroad track Detween Pharr and Mission. McAllen is to be division headquarters, ac- cording to the plans of Gen. Parker, Major Gen, O'Ryan and bis staff are to be located there if the lay of the land is satisfactory to the commander. ‘The best feature of the camp site selected for the New Yorkers is an ample water supply. One of the richest {rrigated sections in Texas stretches along the railroad branch westward from Harlingen, ‘The Rio Grande {s only five miles from Mission, eight from McAllen and ten from Pharr. Pumping stations along the river send an abundant supply of water to points far beyond the railroad right of way. The ground is high and slopes toward the river. With money contributed by the citizens of Mission, McAllen, Pharr and other towns along the branch, water pipes are being lad to all parts of the camp, Electric eing strung by scores of linemen, and engineers are plotting out the ground When the New Yorkers reach the points at which thelr commanders will be furnished with maps whi wires are hey are to detrain, will Indicate ul points at which tents of all character are to be p where stables to be located, where storehouses are to be built 1 here ey. unit of a great canvas city to shelter twenty thousand is up-to-date encampment Brig.

Tauscher paid £!¥ respects to tho Court, “This result shows me,” he said, “that American judges and juries and the people are fair. I knew from the start that they would not convict me, but their verdict to-day reassures me of their fairness and true Ameri- canism. It was understood that the jurors \agreed on a verdict on the second pal- lot. All, it develuped, disbelieved von der Goltz, the confessed leader of the expedition to Capada, from the start, and attached no weight at all to his statement that Capt. Tauscher talked openly to him about the plot to de- stroy the canal and then sold him dynamite with which to do the job. Capt.

WASHINGTON OFFICIALS IMPATIENT AT DELAY WASHINGTON, June 30.—Private advices reach- ing Washington from a reliable source in Mexico City to-day said General Carranza and his advisers had determined to stand by orders to General Trevino to attack American troops in Mexico moving |in any direction except toward the border, and that no way was seen to avoid a break with the United States. A faction of the Mexican Cabinet, it was said, was urging an even more defiant attitude and wanted to include in the reply to the American request for a statement of intentions a new demand for immediate withdrawal of all United States troops now on Mexican soil. The advices did not indicate when the response from Carranza might be expected. The last word on the subject to the State Department came in a message from Special Agent Rodgers, who said he expected the note to be handed him Wednesday night. Secretary of State Lansing to-day asked Mexican Ambassador Arre- dondo to speed up Gen, Carranza’s reply to the last American demands, The request was made during Arredondo’s call at which he delivered a copy of the order on the release of the Carrizal captives, but had nothing to say about when Carranza’'s answer to the demand for an early statement as to his attitude toward American troops in Mexico, These facts developed after the Cabinet session. Only brief con- sideration was given the Mexican situation because of the President’s haste to catch a train for New York, where he will speak to-night before the Press Club, Reports were that the Cabinet decided the United States could not give Carranza very much more time to shape once for all his attitude toward this Government.
