VILLAS ARMY
ON MARCH TO
MEXICO CITY
Continued From First Page.

Continued From First rage.
virtually admits that the United States
Government expects to wear out Huerta
without shooting. Huerta is. admittedly
floundering desperately, and there seems
here little doubt that the Wilson policy
in Mexico will win. At least Lind be-
lieves so. And while the dictator. 300
miles away in his capital, is fighting for
much.needed money, Lind just waits and
waits
To get the entire Mexican people
angry at Huerta is believed here TO be
the gist of the Wilson Bryan scheme.
The plan as seen is 10 give Huerta sui
ficient leeway, and in the belief that he
will turn not only the masses, but the
business men of Mexico against himself.
Huerta is doing this very thing in
his desperate effort to get funds for
his army Whoever first devised the
plan must have carefully studied
Huertas character He's a grim
iohdurate man, with no tact. He is
nearly a full blooded Indian. All
his training has been military. He
acts on impulse and rarely changes
his mind. He has set his heart ON
conQuering the revolutionists without
counting the cost, and he dreams Of
the day when ne will shine as another
iPorfrio Daz or Napoleon.
! II is reported that Huerta intends
to levy monthly tax on all the citi-
gems of Mexico City.
II is reported that he also is to per-
init no one TO leave Mexico without a
passport.
Every move that Huerta makes
sinks him more completely into Mexi-
can disfavor. When the whole Mexi-
can public makes up its mind that
Huerta must go. he will go and that
speedily.
Then will come the bigger question
Of finding a strong man to take his
place
And the crux Is can the Mexicans
do II themselves or will the United
States come to their aid?

is what Miss Harriet Hammond and
Miss Bessie Carson did before the
the Nemours Gun Club yesterday.
Miss Hammond made the excellent
score of 22 out of rs at the pebble
Shoot" and Miss Carson got 20. In
her string Miss Carson lost three out

was volume of poems, entitled
"Grays Elegy and Other Poems"
In the weekly contest for the Ma
ior Ramsay trophy Miss Hirst was
the winner. This is the first time
that Miss Hirst has held the medal.
A feeling of gloom was cast over
the otherwise festive day by the fact
that one member of the club was
kept from attending the shoot on ac-
count of the death of her nephew,
Francis Lannan, who was struck by
trolley car at Second and WASH
ington streets on Tuesday nd later
died from the injury.

WASHINGTON, Dec AFTER a dis
cnssion into which Republican Leader
Mann injected the Mexican situation,
the House yesterday passed the Hay
Army Volunteer bill. that in varying
forms has been talked Of at the Capitol

The bill. which now goes TO the SEN
ate, would put war volunteer forces on
an equal footing with the regular army
II would provide that whenever in the
Presidents judgment war Is imminent
Or actually exists. the President may
organize volunteer reglmente for wal
purposes. The men. instead OF enlistinp
Tor a short period, as in past wars
Would enlist "for the war The Presi'
dent would appoint al the officers, not
more than four regular officers TO be ap-
pointed to any one volunteer regiment
Tie volunteer force thus formed would
Supplement tho existing national guard
on militia with which the bill would
not interfere.
Representative Mann's remarks on the
Mexican situation featured the debate.
Declaring that OF course, Chairman
Hay OF the Military Committee. the Ad-
ministration and all others connected
Vith the bill would vigorously deny that
the measure was presented now because
the Government was preparing for j
war with Mexico he recalled that just

cd Mr Mann. "that at least there was
Tone man in the House who was not
attempting to deceive himself. while
al the others had said that this was
not IN expectation OF war. but TO pre-
vent war ! feel that the sama situa-
ton arises now.
q should greatly regret war with
Mexico he continued. 'T have no

attitude I; his dealings with Mexico,
although I confess | can see no end to
the road which he is now pursuing.
He said yesterday that the Hutsta
government in Mexico would fal,

BADLY HURT AS SHOW
 AUTO TURNED WRONG

Several hundred people experienced a thrill of horror last night about s o'clock at the Lowell show grounds when an automobile used in a flying descent and a mid air turn, struck Q landing platform on it's hind wheels, instead of on all four, and turned a backward somersault. pinning Harry Gregg, the driver. beneath it's body.
 Gregg was unconscious for more than an hour after the accident Phy- sicians said when they had revived the man that they could not tell at that time the full extent of his in. juries. It is feared he is internally hurt He was reported late at night as complaining of much pain about the chest, and as occasionally vomit- ing blood.
 Gregg .s an old hand at the work in which he was engaged last night lie said after the accident that there was no particular cause to which it could be charged. When the crowd and the show attendants saw him caught un der the car as 1t turned backward they believed him killed, and for a time this report prevailed.
