U S Moves To Punish Carranza Troops Over Mexican Slayings
Ambassador Arredondo told Secretary Lansing on January 18 that Carranza forces had been ordered to Western Chihuahua to kill or capture bandits who murdered American citizens. He said Northern Mexico soldiers would be pressed into service if needed and Americans were warned to leave trouble zones as Washington demanded proof of killers’ punishment. Congressional action discussed arming U S forces and dispatching warships if required, with mixed responses from senators and representatives.

El Paso funerals and shipments proceed for several victims as international authorities discuss further actions.
