7965 WINDSOR. MEXICO "SEES NO REASON FOR ALARM" Mexico City, Feb. 18--There is "no reason for the alarm of the United States authorities over threats of rebellion along the frontier." according to Acting Secretary of War Serrano. Replying the queries of newspaper men said: "There are no rebels of importance close to the boundary, and the few desperadoes in Chihuahua do not dare attack a single federal military unit. much less threaten Juarez.

"Sufficient troops have been placed the border to repel any attack, and the garrisons at Juaraz and other border points are competent. The fears in the United States are absurd."

Francisco Cardenas in the morning, and that in the ensuing skirmish five of the rebels were killed and eight wounded. has asked official permission to Francisco Villa, former bandit chief, his men against Gen.
