tests will be booked with teams froos

THE UEWS FROM MEXICO
AMERICAN 1MARINES SHOT
San Antonio, Texas, July 11.-
American marines are reported to
have been fired upon and forced to
withdraw while seeking mines at Tam-
pico, recently, according to the El
Dia, a newspaper in BMonterey. The
report was purported to have been
made by General Naffarcite to General
Trevino, and im part follows:
"'t'oday two launches of the Amer-
ican warships lying at the entrance to
the port attempted to remove some of
the mines that I have placed at the
bar. Since they did not obey the sic-
nals made to them to suspend their
efforts, I ordered that a volley be
fixed at them. The crews of the
launches returned the fire, the ex-
change continuing for some 15 min-
utes. The launches then retired.
"From the movements of the Amer-
ican ships, it appears they may be
planning to disembark forces.
"I shall continue to mine the river.
I shall appreciate the dispatch of
dynamite."
Two sailors from the Salem were
- killed by Carranza soldiers while en-
- tering the harbor with dispatches

- Tampico received here today. The
