Object To Troop Movement.

New York Times 100 years ago today, September 11, 1912:
Border Cities Fear Trouble When Mexican Soldiers Use Our Territory.
Special to The New York Times.
    EL PASO, Texas, Sept. 10.— Douglas, Ariz., Hachita, N. M., and El Paso oppose the movement of Mexican troops through United States territory en route to Central Sonora. The citizens of these cities have protested to Washington, saying that to send Mexican troops along the American side of the border at this time may mean international complications, and at least an engagement at the point where the troops enter Mexico again.
    Salazar remains at Lang's Ranch, on the boundary, ready to attack any column which may cross. He is expecting the Federals to enter by way of Agua Prieta, and he will take this town as soon as he is sure. A fight there may mean the killing of many Americans in Douglas, if the Federals do not actually engage in the streets of El Paso as soon as they cross the river from Juarez.
    While the Federals are moving troops to Sonora, the rebels are within twenty-five miles of Juarez and are camping in squads of from twenty-five to thirty down the river. No effort is being made to oppose them.
    Ger. Trucy Aubert is supposed to be advancing from Falomir on the rebels now in Ojinaga.
     A shipment of 2,000,000 ball cartridges was received here to-day by express for the Cananea and Nacozari mines. The ammunition is in two box cars, and is being carefully guarded, to prevent the rebels from blowing it up. Conscription is taking place in Juarez, where Orozco's friends are being impressed.
