"JJouvelles de France," published in Paris, printed a story about Mexican sffalrs and the German influence j which, while badly Jumbled as to facts. contains some startling statements. Translation of Article. A translation of the French publi cation, which has been received here under date of May 18, reads as fol lows: "After Ireland, Mexico. In all of the troubled waters the empire of Germany casts Its nets to draw a profit therefrom. In Mexico where the revolution is in an endemic state, the United States, having previously recognized Gen.

Villa Gen, Carrnnza Flops. "But Gen. Carranza, having changed tactics under German in fluence, will no longer tolerate American troops on Mexican terri tory and has refused the means to them of supplying themselves by the use of the railroad of that country. The chief of the Ameri can troops. Gen. Scott, was called to Washington to hear from him personally the report of the situa tion. At the same time there wm, published In the United States documents which prove, once more, the manner which German Undo aid to these intrigues and malic ious maneuvers. , Report to Zuarez." "The officers and non-commis-sloned officers of the German re-' serve now in the United States have received order that, in case of a diplomatic rupture between the union of Mexico to leave Im mediately for Zuarex.

"Lonjr Way to Mexlcoc." As the artillerymen pulled into the fort ynrdi thev started singing. "It's a Lon,j AVay tc Mexico." and shouting at the realization that they were at last on the border. On the sides of the little Boston and Albany day coaches in which they made the five day trip to the border were chalked a number of slogans. One was. "Wanted a Lady Cook Must Speak Spanish," Another stenziled styins was. "We'll Pluck Car ranzaV Whiskers." while a third patri otic iertlmcnt was. "It's a Grand Old Flag.' The artillerymen, like the other troops riTivias from the seaboard states were thoroughly train sick and weary. When they left their cars they stretched their lens and then started looking arouni for shade. lUrre Are the Treeaf "Where's the trees?" one Boston boy said as he locked all around the fort reservation "And there ait't no grass." shouted another as he saw the vistas of sand and iowered dust. Anott.er wanted to know how hot It was apd said he had never known it could get as hot as it was out on the reservation at Fort Bliss. Some of the boys complained of the heat and sun and wished they were back home, but the niajori y buckled down to camp duty rs soon as they arrived. Vennavlvanla Bo; a Pleased.

On each side of the Franklin canal, between the Texas & Pacific and the Union slockards has been laid out the new infantry ramp. The greater part of the troops arriving Sunday went Into camp on the far sid of the canal, between the Irrigation ditch and the riier. There the brigade headquarters of the second Massachu setts infantry brigade was established with Gen. E. Leroy Sweetser. of Boston, commanding. His brigade colors were planted in the soft silt and a sentinel walked his beat while the general sat under a cottonwood tree and dictated to a civilian stenographer. Sixth Left at Home. The fifth and ninth Massachusetts in fantry regiments arrived Sunday and went Into camp near the river front during the day. The eighth infantry arrived later. These make up the sec ond infantry brigade in command of Gen. Sweetser. The second infantry went to Columbus Sunday, according to the guard officers. This was comanded by Col. W. J. Hayes. The sixth Infantry, which with the second is a part of the first brigade, did not come to the bor- department and the officers of this regi- ' ment, wnicn is said to be one of the finest in the guard, are now busy get ting recruits and drilling them in Mas sachusetts to send to the border but they will come later.
