VILLA CLOSES IN LIN
 CARRANzA TRENCHES
SklRMlSH TAKES PLACE BUT NO DAMAGE IS DONE EITHER
 SIDE.

Brownsville, Tex, April 9.-Several thousand Villa troops in the forces in vesting Matamoros drew in closer to the CarranZa trenches today. Vil- la ouuposts lay in hiding in the brush a quarter to a half a mile in front of the trenches. One detachment crept close to the defense, exchanging rifle shots for several minutes with the gar rison, without apparent domage to either side. The second brigade of Villa troops, about 200 men, left Gen Rodriguez headquarters today and circled south of Matamoros. Staff Of fcers said this brigade intended to close the southern entrance to Mata- moros.
 A good sized American flag, carried by the Mexican-American rancdmen on the American side of the river, was fired on from the Mexican side by men concealed in the brush. The Mexican was plotting a party of news paper men to a ferry and the flag was intended for use in the boat. The party by mistake appeared on the river bank opposite the skirmish lines and hoisted the flag for protec- tiol Not more than a half dozen bull lets were fired at them before they gained cover
 Juan Perales. a 12-year-old Villa cayalryman in the Red Cross hospital here died today. He was the boy who on Easter Sunday promised not to cry if bunny rabbit was given him when his wound was operated on.
 After his death the nurses found in his pocket a glass marble of the kind familiar to all small boys.
 An old rice mill has been obtained by the Red Cross here for use as d hospital in anticipation of the next at tack on Matamoros.
 There was no flying in either avia- ton camp today It was reported at the Villa camp that two American ay- iators are coming to fly the Villa bi plane over Matamoros, Farnum Fish 1 of Los Angeles. and M Mcclure of | Chicago. A bomb which was claimed to contain nitroglycerine intended fos throwing from the Carranza mono plane was carefully taken apart at the Carranza aviation camp and rendered harmless.
