WASHINGTON. Nov. 7. — Gen.
Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff of the
army, expressed the belief Tuesday
that the statement given out by the
war department telling of a border
conspiracy had prevented an attack
J by Mexican bandit* on frontier towns.
> He believed also that it had frustrated
I plans for attacking the American
forces in Mexico.
General Scott added, however, that
the bandits are still being paid in sil-
ver. the inference being that the ban-
dits’ supply of thoney, supposedly ob-
tained from the United States, has not
been exhausted.
Neither the state department nor
the Mexican embassy received any in-
formation today confirming the re-
ports of the assassination by Villistas
of American* at Parral. At neither
was it believed that Torreon had been
evacuated by the Carranzistas. The
embassy received a dispatch saying
Villa was near Parral.
The state department has been
flooded with telegram* from relatives
of Americans who were reported mas-
•acred by Villistas at Parral. The de-
partment hs made urgent Inquiries
It is believed by officials that th®
Americana at Parral followed the Car-
ranza troops and did not remain to
run the risk of mistreatment at Villa's
hand*
