STORY 07 CAPTAIN MOSEY
Bryan Won't Take
Action Regarding
Peace in Mexico
Lake City, Minn., June 27. Former
Secretary of State Wm. J. Bryan,
made his first public statement re
garding the invitation received by
him to attend the proposed El Paso
conference with Dr. David Starr
Joradn and Frank P. Walsh in a
Chautauqua address here tonight.
"While anxious to do what I can,
and I would go anywhere gladly, I
have not thought or said it would
be wise for me to attempt to do any
thing in the present situation unless
President Wilson is sympathetic to
ward the action to be taken. I am
very anxious indeed, to see the mat
ter settled without resort to arms, but
I think it inopportune to talk of a
conference or the stituation." Mr.
Bryan said.
Paitti Visits Department
of Commerce and Labor
Washington, June 27. (Special.)
L. 1 J. Fiatti, wife and daughter
Frances, of Omaha, are in Washing
ton on their way to New York. Mr.
Piatti. in conjunction with Represen
tative Lobeck, had a conference to
day with Solicitor John B. Densmore
of the Department of Labor, in the
case of Sam Cosentian, an Italian
resident of Omaha, who is regarded
as an undesirable citizen at the in
stance of Labor Inspector Whitford.
The absence of all the papers in
the case made it impossible for So
lictor Densmore to suggest any ac
tion to Secretary Wilson of the de
partment pending the receipt of
which Congressman Lobeck said
would be immediately forthcoming.
Field Headquarters, Mex., June 27.
(By Wireless to Columbus, N. M.)
American negro troopers faced al'
most certain death at Carrizal with
smiles in their eyes and slang on their
lips and they burst into song once or
twice as they fought their grim ngnt
against odds. This was the story told
by Captain Lewis s. Morey, wnen ne
arrive at held headquarters today.
"For forty-five minutes the men
fought, joking among themselves all
the while, even though they realized
we had been trapped and had little
chance of getting out alive," he said.
Captain Morey said that he had
never seen such valor as was dis
played by Captain Charles T. Boyd
in leading a handful of dismounted
skirmishers through the machine gun
hre into the ambush ot deatlt.
Officer's Heroic Death.
He added that it was not until their
ammunition was exhausted that the
trooD was finally cut to pieces, and
told of the heroic death of Lieutenant
Henry K. Adair of Portland, Ore., in
an attempt to replenish it.
Lieutenant Adair died fighting, his
lsat words being, "Go on, sergeant,"
to a noncommissioned officer at his
side, Captain Morey said. The two
were on their way to the pack ani
mals carrying the ammunition, when
they were intercepted near a small
irrigation ditch by a detail ot Mex
icans. Lieutenant Adair had already
been wounded and had lost his pistol
in the previous fighting, but he had
borrowed another and was righting a
hand-to-hand battle whe n he was
killed. He fell backwards uncon
scious and was caught by the negro
sergeant as he slid toward the ditch,
which was deeply filled with water.
The sergeant held Adair in his
arms, his face above the water, until
he died, the wounded officer reviving
only long enough to whisper orders
to leave him and finish the mission.
Captain Morey said that Captain
Boyd warned the men before the fight
that they were advancing into the
greatest danger. He reiterated that
the Carranzistas opened fire first
from their machine gun trench and
asserted that almost immediately aft
erward a detachment of the Mexicans
circled to the rear and drove off num
bers of the American horses, which a
few men had been left to hold while
the cavalrymen dismounted in line of
skirmish.
: The size of the battlefield and the
cover from which the Mexicans
fought, made it necessary for his
troop and that of Captain Boyd to
separate and to fight what were prac
tically individual engagements, Cap
tain Morey said.
Rescued by Eleventh Troopers.
Captain Morey was brought here
by troops of the Eleventh .cavalry
sent to rescue Carrizal survivors after
having led a handful of starving, pant
ing troopers forty miles over a sun
baked desert to relief. The few
crumbs of food they had were carried
in their handkerchiefs and in their
first aid kits, while what water they
had was carried in a baking powder
tin which they picked up on the road
side. David Starr Jordan Has
Advice to Give on Mexico
El Paso, Tex., June 27. A telegram
urging that, intervention in Mexico,
if undertaken, be done "on its own
merits and not upon the pretext of an
obscure clash of irresponsible troops,
in which each side blames the other,"
was sent to President Wilson tonight
by David Starr Jordan, delegated by
the American Union against militar
ism to attempt to prevent hostilities
between the United . States and

Fashions, or Woman's Health.
The first thing may persons think
of finding on the Woman's Page of a

not what women most need to find
there. Health is the first thing, and
many women lack it. Notes telling
how to preserve the health are of the
greatest value and interest for wom

woman's ailments, they read with the
most intense interest how other wom
