Gen. Funston takes little stock in the
reports that Gen. Aguilar in the out
skirts of Vera Cruz may attempt to
expel the American forces. He Is max
ing absolutely no preparations for such
an attack, and refuses to take the mat

The reports had reached the depart
ment in press dispatches.
Gen. Funston's command has been re-
duced to about 5000 men by expira-

Carranza and had shown a tendency
to side with the Villa supporters were
swinging back to their first alliance.
The convention seemed more evenly
