Border Tension Eases After Carrizal Return
Tension along the border cooled after twenty three Tenth Cavalry and American scout prisoners were returned to the U S amid reports of no mistreatment and vows of restraint. Mexican consul Garcia hailed the move as a step toward solving the border crisis while arrangements were made to repatriate bodies of the slain soldiers. Other reports note anti Mexican sentiment rising locally after cross border raids and Carranza cavalry concentrations near Guzman. A Mexican rider with the Car ranza customs service was killed by American soldiers near Ysleta triggering protests in Juarez as military supplies looted at Carrizal arrived for transfer.
