The note discloses that the stste de partment received a communication rrom the de fncto government stating that tiie Carrizai fight was the direct retui It of orderx to attack American soldiefH moving otherwise than to ward the border, personally issued by (.ieneral Carranza to (Ieneral Trevino and by the latter communicated to (ieneral i'ershing. In reply Secretary Lansing requires that the de facto government trans mit a definite statement "as to the course of action IK Apparently, however, the Washing' ton government is determined that the de facto government shall not evade responsibility before the world if war In forced upon the United States.

In twen ty hours, probably, a substantial force will be en route to the border to back up Cicnenl I'unston's line. It may be four or five days, how ever, before war department officials would feel safe in withdrawing regu lars from the border patrol to form the. rutting edge of whatever force they may hurl to the support of (Ien eral Pershing's column, should aggres sive action be ordered. It seems doubtful that a formal dip lomatic rupture would he forced be fore aderpiate military precautions are possible, particularly as it has been Indicated that quick, drastic action is President Wilson's desire, should (ien eral Carranza force the use of the army against him.
