THIRTY MEXIOANS STRIKE DE.ABERATE BIAOW AT U.
8. ARMY.
Brownsville, Tex., Sept. .-Thefirst deliberate blow agains... Unit-ed States army guarding the Texas-Mexien border was struck today bya band of about thirty Mexican out-laws who attacked a detachment often cavalrymen on guard at an Irri-gati-C pumping plant several milesap t Rio Grande from this city.In the fighting which lasted half anhour two American soldiers werekilled, Anthony Kraft, of Detroit,Mich., a private of Troop "A, twlRthcavalry, ead Harold T. Forney, ofWatertown, N. Y., a trumpeter ofthe same troop. Two other soldiers,Sergeant J. J. Walsh, who was incommand of the detail of troops, andJack O'Neal, a private, were wound-ed slightly. The Mexicans escapedto the brush carrying their dead andwounded with them. The numberof their casualties was not known.
Early tonight a rural mail carrierwas fired on from amoush and slight-ly wounded about' twenty miles fromthe scene of the fight this morning.
Patrols are Reinforced.As a result of the attack and re-
ports that the Mexicans might renewhostilities at any time, patrols alongthe international boundary were re-inforced tonight and precautions tak-en to prevent a surprise. Col. A. P.Blocksom, in command of the bord-er patrol, also made vigorous de-meands on the Carransa authoritiesat Matsmoros for the arret of twobandit leaders known to be on theMexiaen side of the river. Thesemen were the signers of circulars,distributed recently, which urgedMexicans to rise against the Ameri-cans.Col. Nafarrate, Carranza com-
mander at Matamoros, sent word toCol. Blocksom tonight that he hadordered his troops to search for theien. Nafarrate today also orderedLieut. Col. Velasques of his forcesto come to Matamoros and report onthe actions of his troops at CavazosCrossing, where Americans and :Mexi-cans had a fight across the river aweek ago.
Five Mexicans were arrested todaysuspected of implic tion in the at-tack this morning, and a search 'wasmade of the ranch buildings in theneighborhood. Two wagonloads ofarms were found, but all the muni-tions were in houses occupied byAmericans. State peace oieers con-ducted the search, aided by detach-ments of troops.
Attack Before Daylight.The attack on the troops at the
irrigation plant was made shortlyafter daybreak and before the sol-diers were astir. The attacklng par-ty was first sighted by the trooperassigned the duty of preparing break-fast, but before he could give thealarm the Mexicans opened fire fromthe shelter of straw stacks. TheAmericans quickly returned the firefrom the shed in a ranch corral, inwhich they were quartered. Duringthe fight the soldiers caught onlyoccasional glimpses of the arm orhat of a Mexican and directed theirfire largely by the flashes from theguns of the raiders.
Forney was struck by a bulletwhile he was rising from his bunk.He died late today.
Kraft was lying on the ground infront of the shed under fire fromthree directions when a bullet struckhim in the head. Another trooperwho was lying beside him carriedhim to shelter. He died In a fewminutes.
After about thirty minutes theMexleans stooped firing and escaped.When the news of the ight wasbrought to Port Brown here, Col.Blockeom went to tl~e scene with re-inforcements but no trace of the menoould be fond.
