Rather than plunge the two countries Into war It Is understood that the President In prepared to abandon n.s soon na practicable the original purposes of the Pershing expedition, and leave to the forces of Gen. Carranza the duty of patrolling the territory south of the Rio Grande. Probably only an attack ty the Carrunza forces, is the belief, upset this programme. Technically there has tsjen no change of pulley and no orders to Gen. Pershing to withdraw.

Actually, however, the retirement has begun. On reliable authority It may be said that the main base of punitive expedition is now' located less than 100 miles south of Columbus.

With much of the mllltla of the United States now on the Mexican border ready to reinforce Pershing and his punitive expedition In Mexico, or to cross at any other point that the exigency may demand, the excitement of the past two weeks began to cool to-day and another long wait for developments In the Mexican situation la predicted, "Carranza Ih not going to precipitate a fight that will mean not only his undoing, but the subjugation of the Mexican nation If he can help It, and the policy of the United states Is not to start anything," said a military official of high rank.

NEW YORK ORIOLE SOLDIERS OFF IN PULLMANS What Is More, These Mary-landers Did Not Wait for Orders to Move. RESTAURANT CARS, TOO Baltimore. July S. Twenty-four hours ahead of their orders and travelling like Major-Generals, the doughboys of Maryland's First Infantry Regiment are on their way to the border at Eagle Pass, probably the only regiment In the history of America that ever ran away to war or war's alarm. Technically, It appears, their departure did not synchronize with the date set bv SlaJor-(5en.

There were no tourlt sleepers handy, but the First wasn't worrying about a little matter like the relative cost of tourist sleepers ns compared with the regulation pluah. and an arrangement was made with President of the Baltimore and Ohio Itallroad to fumlsh standard Pullmans.

Home say the railroad furnished tho regular Pullmans at the same pflce asked for tourist sleepers. Others have a notion that Uncle Sam will have to pay regular Pullman sleeping car rates, which would be about $20 or $25 a head for the 1,200 men. Anyway they got started at noon last Friday, and are mm rolling southwest-ward In style, with several cars equlplied as table d'hote restaurant, ice water aplenty, the fanciest kind of sanitary and ventilation arrangements, and a plentiful supply of food. It Is certain that the regular army officers had a srlock of surprise when they heard that the First Maryland was out of camp and gone. They hadn't been ready for so much preparedness.
