The corespondent of the New York World, accompanying the United States troops in Mexico, writes the World on April 8, concerning the bat tle on April 1, engaged in by a de tachment of the Tenth Cavalry, near the village of Aquascalientes at San Antonio Canyon. Concerning the Negro troopers the correspondent, B. C. Utecht, writes as follows: Folowing the battle at Guerrero, in which forty-six Villistas were shot down, fifty others being found later buried at Bachineva, the American troops pursued relentlessly, and last Saturday part of the Tenth Cavalry under Col. William C. Brown came upon a large body of the enemy near the village of Aquascalientes at San Antonio Canyon. Here the Mexicans thought they were safe, as their hiding place was well chosen and almost impossible of discovery. The American attack, as at Guerrero, came as a surprise, but this time there was no Mexican spy to give warning. Mexicans were lolling in the grass, eating or sleeping, as it was noon, when Mexicans dislike to be on the move. Their horses were grazing nearby and the Mexicans did not know of the poximity of the Ameri cans until the first crack of a rifle. Then they leaped for their horses and again there was a short running fignt. fhe shots of the Americans told al most every time, while the Villistas ailed to inflict any losses of conse quence, according to reports. Vil .a’s losses are reported to have been nore than thirty. The remainder of he band is still being pursued into | .he canyons. The Tenth Cavalry is composed of Negro troops, and the battle on April was the first time Negro soldiers had ever fought against Mexicans. ! .’he Negro is held in high respect in i the army, for he is known as an able fighter and keeps well disciplined. Just a few days before Col. Brown’s fight, I heard Gen.Pershing discussing .he Negro soldiers. “They are among the greatest fighters in the world,” he ;aid. “They are a hardy lot and love ! .he game.” I have seen these Negro soldiers march all day in high spirits, hum ! ming songs together. 1 have never aeard them complain. They keep their camp in neat order, which means nuch work, and after evening mess i ..hey gather around the fires for songs, ■ard games and stories. I saw these Negroes day after day doing these ; things, and they went into battle just e same way, light heartedly, yet j determined to make good records and please their officers. It mattered not to them whether it was a battle, card game or a frolic, the job must be a good one, and a good one they made of it. Wanted— Reliable Agents Everywhere To solicit for The Monitor.
