shall face them from the balcony. Yes,
Westerling, you and have achieved a
place in history, and they're far more
bitter toward you than me. However,
YOU don't have to come back"
mo, l don't have to go back! No.
I was not to go back if failed!" said
Westerling dizzily.
In the inner room, whose opening
door gave glimpses of Lanstron and
the division chiefs, magic of secret
council which the juniors could not
quite understand had wrought the won
der Lanstron had not forgotten the
dead. He could see them; he could
see everything that happened. Had
not Partow said to him: Don't just
read reports. Visualize men and
events. Be the artillery, be the in
fantry, be the wounded-live and think
in their places In this way only can
you really know your work."
His citation when he saw his plans
going right was that of the instrument
of Partow's training and Marta's serv-
ice. He pressed the hands of the men
around him; his voice caught in his
gratitude and his breaths were very
short at time, like those of a spent,
happy runner at the goal Feeding or
victory and growing greedy of more,
his division chiefs were discussing how
to press the war till the Grays sued for
peace; and he was silent in the midst
of their talk, which was interrupted
by the ringing OF the tunnel telephone.
When he came out of his bedroom,
Lanstron's distress was so evident that
those who were seated arose and the
, others drew near in inquiry and sym
pathy. 1t seemed to them that the
chief OF staff, the head of the machine,
who had left the room had returned an
individual.
1.-THE connection was broken while
we were speaking" he said blankiy.
"That means it must have been cut
by the enemy-that the enemy knows
/, of it's existence!"
Perhaps not. Perhaps an accident
"a chance shot," said the vice-chief.
mo, I'm sure not" Lanstron replied.
II am sure that it was cut deliberately
and not by her."
1.-THE SD Regiment is going forward
in that Objectionable same regiment
that defended the house-and it cant
go any faster that it is going" the
vice-chief continued, rather incoherent-
ly. He and the others no less felt the
news as personal blow. Though alb
sent in person, Marta had become in
spirit an intimate of their hopes and
councils.
"She is helpless-in their power"
Lanstron said. There Is no telling
what they might do to her in the rage
Of their discovery. l must go to her!
l am going to the 'front.'"
A young officer of the Grays who
was with the signal-corps section, try
ing to keep brigade headquarters in
touch with the staff during the retreat,
two or three miles from the Galland
house, had seen what looked like an in
sulated telephone wire at the bottom

INVESTIGATES
REBELS RAID
MexiCaRS Enter Lower Cali
fOrRla, Burn Custom House
and Kill Postmaster
U. S. SOLDIERS In
SEARCH OF BANDITS
By JOHN E. NEvIN

staff Correspondent of the United Press.
WASHINGTON, March l6.-Orders
we're today telegraphed to Major Cen
eral Murray at San Francisco to have
sweeping investigation made imme-
diately of the raid into Lower Califor-
hit Saturday by Mexican bandits. They
were said to have burned the customs
house and postoilice at Tecate and muir
dered the postmaster, Frank V. john
son. As soon as Secretary Of War Gar
rison receives the report it will be turn
ed over TO the State Department and
representations made to the Mexican
Authorities. In addition, the commander
At Fort Rosecrans has been directed to
patrol the border at this point and en-
deavor to locate the bandits who may
still be in American territory.
A report was awaited today from
Charge O'Shaughnessy at Mexico City
detailing thorefusal of Huerta TO assume
financial responsibility for the care OF
the Federal refugees now prisoners OF
war at Fort Bliss. Inasmuch as this
government intends TO hold the perma-
nent government of Mexico, when peace
Is finally restored, responsible for these
change in the care OF the refugees.
Reports received at both the State
and War Departments before communi-
cation south OF Juarez was interrupted
indicates that what should prove the
most sanguinary conflict of the present
Mexican rebellion has begun well to the
north of Torreon. The force on both
sides will be the largest of the present
struggle and this time both sides have
am abundance of modern artillery and
arms and ammunition. The Federals,
IN an effort to gain the initial adyan-
tage, were reported to have assumed the
offensive only to have their skirmish
fine ambushed and driven back with loss
That the fight will be decisive was be-
iieved certain here because Of the re-
port that Villa impressed a special train
to carry Felipe Angeles, secretary OF
war under Carranza and the most ex-
pert artillerymen in the Constitutional
army from Jtarez to Chihuahua to Join
him and the further statement that both
would proceed to the front at once.
Up to the present, no representations
concerning Carranza's latest note have
been received by the State Department
from any of the representatives OF the
powers here. Tn State Department re-
fuses to comment on il for publication
6ut it IS pointed out that the suggestion
that it was renewed defiance OF this
government is not borne out either by
the text OF the communication or the
attitude of Carranza himself. Secretary
BRYAN believes that there will be no
further trouble with the Constitutional
ist leader and that hereafter he Will
personally see that all foreigners and
foreign interests are s0eguarded.

HOME RULE BY
LOCAL OPTION,
ASQUITH PLAN
Says Government Will Allow
Irish Counties the Right to
Vote on Question
SAYS THIS IS THE
ONLY CONCESSION
By The United Press.

LONDON, March 16.-Premier As
quith, I'm the House Of Commons to-
day made mis- promised statement on
the governments views as to Ulster
opposition to Irish Home rule, an
nouncing a determination, which. Il
is believed, may possibly change
British history.
Before a chamber jammed to the
doors with members and with every
gallery full to overflowing, the prem
ier gave in great detail the conces-
sions the government is willing TO-
make to placate Ulster. declaring
that the giving Of Irish counties the
right 20 vote on whether they would
accept an Irish parliament for a
period of six years was as far as
the administration could go.
Asquith, while his words were
mild. practically confirmed the re-
cent statement of Secretary Church.
IN that no further concessions of
any sort would be made. He said If
the proposals of the administration
for a counties plebiscite were ac-
ceptable to the leaders of the Ulster
men, the government would proceed
TO make such supplementary finan-
cial and administrative adjustments
of the Home Rule plan as would ap-
pear necessary. He insisted, how
ever, that the government had no
idea of wasting its time by working
out these details II its proposals
looking 10 peace were rejected.
The premiers speech was received
with little enthusiasm by the opposi-
tion benches and on several occa-
sions murmurs of disagreement were
so strong as to force him to pause.
Finally the premier put the tra'ght
question to the opposition as to
whether or not the government pro-
pOsals were satisfactory to them.
