reon attack will begin just as soon
as / can get at the head of my
troops" said General Francisco Villa,
commander of the Constitutionalist

fore he. departed on a special train
for the South. 1t is Villas intention
to delay for a day or two at Chihua-

The general took with him a car
load of ammunition. The canons for
which he had been waiting at the
border, did not arrive and when they
do they will be sent south on spe-
cial train. Another carload of am
munition is expectedsto arrive tomor-
row and this, too, will be forwarded.
The Constitutionalists will be ham
dicapped in the Torreon battle be-
cause of the inability to get shrapnel
ammunition in the United States to

TWO DR|TISHERS
REPORTED SLAIN

ish Isles, it has not aroused any dis
position on the part of responsible
members of the British government
to change their policy in regard to
Mexico.
There is no concealment of the fact,
however, that murder of British sub
jects in Mexico, unless followed by
punishment of the murderers and the
payment of indemnitles, are likely to
arouse public opinion here to the
point where 1t will demand that the
British government take more ag-
gressive attitude.
Look to U. s. TO Act.
This fact. had been Impressed upon
the State department at Washing
ton by Sir Cecil SPRING Rice before
any British lives had been lost in
Mexico.
In its official attitude, Great Brit
ain Is looking to the United States
jects, and has no doubt that the
United States will do its best.
The State department at Washing
ton has already informed the British
government that where there are no
British consuls in Mexico the con-
suls of the United States will look
after British interests.
The British government has no
communication with the Mexican
Constitutionalists through diplomatic
or consular channels.
The members of the British gov
ernment consider that the recogni-
ton of the Constitutionalists as bel
ligerents would be a mistake.
The Evening Standard says: The
execution of Benton emphasized the
fact that some kind of international
conpulsion will soon be necessary to
stop Mexico from wallowing in this
tsy of corruption and cruelty"

to fears of complications arising from
