Ell PASO, Texas, May 12.-The con
stitutionalist campaign against San
Luis Potosi, west OF Tampico. will
not be pressed until after the capture
of Saltillo by Gen. Francisco Villas
army. Robert v. Pesquiera, diploma
tie agent OF the constitutionalist made
this declaration today on his return
from Torreon. The last detachment
OF Villas army is sch eduled to en-
train at Torreon today for Paredon
whence the troops will march forty
miles south for tbs assault on Sal
tilio. According to Pesquiera the &C
tual bombardment OF that city will be-
gin in three days.
Rumors that constitutionalists have
captured Tampico continue tc come IN
but there has been no confirmation.
Carranzista leaders regard the capture
OF the port as Of the utmost import
ance because they believe the United
States VIII not blockade Tampico
against the importation of arms and
ammunition to the const' 'tutionalists.
Pesquiera told the United Press to-
day that he was confident that ship
ment OF arms from Europe to Car
ranza's army at Tampico would be
permitted but he insisted that Villa
has plenty Of ammunition, even for
Mexico City campaign. Military ex-
perts here, however, discredit this and
declare a long engagement at Saltillo

haust Villas supplies.

TOWNSITES MAY NOT
Be OPENED this fall
Parshall and Van Hook, on the
Reservation, May Have to Be
Vacated and Replatted.

1t looks very much at the present
time as if the townsites Of Parshall
and Van Hook, or the reservation
would not be opened this fall. Con-
gresham Norton has interested him
self in the matter, and is doing what
he can to urge haste. 1t appears the
500 railway or the Indian department
are at fault as 10 where the railway
cuts through those townsites, neces-
stating another survey. In a letter
to Mr.. Norton from C. M. Bruce, as
sistant commissioner of the general
land office, Mr.. Bruce goes on to
state: ..
81 have the honor to advise you
that there has recently been filed in
this office IN application By said rail
way company, requesting that the
plats of the townsites of Parshall
and Van Hook in the Fort Berthold
Indian Reservation be vacated and
%replatted so as to conform to the
present and now adopted alignment
of said railway through and across
the same. Said application was on
August Is, 1914, transmitted to the
Commissioner of Indian Affairs for
consideration. | am unable at this
time to state. when the lots in said
townsites viii be offered for sale.'
Norton also saw Mr.. Sells, COM
missioner OF Indian affairs, who
merely stated he was not able at
this time to say when the re-survey
would be completed. So that it looks
very much at this date as if the open
ing of these townsites would be de-
ferred till spring. This does not pre-
vent anyone from locating there, but
subjects business places to securing
permit and a traders license that
must be backed by a bond furnished.
