Captured Wood.
Fighting of great violence be-
tween the French and German
infantry has been in progress
from Bethincourt northwest of
Verdun, to the Meuse, and east
of the Meuse from the southern
slopes of the Cote de Talou to
the Douaumont region-battle
fronts aggregating about 10
miles in length. Spirited artil-
lery duels continued along the
remainder of the front about
Nerdun.
A continuation of the German
drive northwest of Verdun is de-
ciared by Berlin to have netted
the Germans French positions
over front of nearly fow, miles
and virtually two miles in derth
and enabled them to capture 52
officers and 3.277 men. The vii
ages OF ForgeS and Regnevil'e.
the heights Of Raben and the
CUnlereS woods fell into the
hands OF the Gemans.
The French did not give M
these positions without strong
resistance and suffered heavy
casualties, especially along the
southern fringe of the Cumieres
wood.
In the Corbeaux wood. which
was occupied recently by the Ger
mans, the French launched a
heavy counter-attack and drove
the Germans out of the greater
part OF the position. A German
attack with heavy effectives
against the French Bethincourt
INES was repulsed.
East of the Meuse the Ger
mans have captured the Hardau-
mont redoubt. over which there
mas been such heavy fighting.

ARMY GIVEN
FREE RANGE
Administration Stands Squarely
Behind Sending Cavalry 80
Mexico.
NO PERMISSION ASKED
Troops Cross Border in Pursuit
of Outlaw Band.

Washington, March 9.-Wash-
ington stands squarely behind
Col. Slocum in sending cavalry
into Mexico in pursuit of Fran
cisco Villa and his band of out
laws, who raided Columbus, Y.
NJ, to-day, numbering American
soldiers and citizens and firing
the town.
Secretary Lansing tonight
informed the de facto Govern
ment of Mexico, through E. Ar
redondo, its ambassador desig-
nate here, that he trusted no OBJ
lection would be made to the ac-
ton of the American troops,
they having followed what is
known in military circles as a
"hot trail" No orders have
been issued for the return OF
the soldiers, and it is not proba
BILE any will be issued for the
present.
Shocked Indignation OCCASION
ed by news of Villas outrage
was quickly succeeded by undis-
guised satisfaction in official and
congressional circles over the
knowledge that, after three
years of patient forbearance,
y United States troops actually
were on Mexican soil to avenge
the death of their comrades and
bring to justice the outlaws
whose depredations have terror
lied Americans on both sides of
the border.
Reports that the American
troopers were in action tonight
probably fifteen miles south OF
the border against much larg.
er force of bandits were heard
with anxious interest in official
circles. Five troops of cavalry
crossed the border early in tbs
day. At late hour tonight il
was not known officially just
where they were or just what
account they had given of them
selves.
While no formal word of the
policy of the administration was
out, it was reliably stated that
the army would be given free
rein to catch the bandits if pos
sible. 1t was not considered il
administration circles that Col
Slocum's act in any sense con
stituted an invasion of Mexico
a policy which the administra
tion has opposed in the past, anc
will continue to oppose.
The state department at frs
had planned to ask permission
of the Carranza government t.
send troops across the border il
pursuit of the outlaw band
Then came official word that tn,
cavalry had already crossed. La
ter Mr.. Arredondo called upol
Secretay Lansing, expressed re
gret for the Villa raid and wa,
infomed of the attitude of tht
United States. Mr.. Arredondt
said he would communicate will
Gen. Carranza Immediately.

The Mexican Question Flares Up

Washington, March 9.-The
Mexican question broke out in
Congress late to-day. Senator
Fall, of New Mexico, announced
to-day that he had prepared a
resolution to authorize recruit
ing of a army of 100000 to in
tervene in Mexico and authoriz-
ing authorities to stamp out
brigandage, while in the House,
Representative Mondell, repub-
lican, of Wyoming, started a de-
bate with a speech attacking the
Administrators Mexican policy.

fire, together with a number of
other buildings and posted snip
ers to pick off Americans as
they fled
Mrs. M. James was shot and
killed in the doorway of another
hotel from which she was run
ming with her sister. Mrs. James
fell dying over the body of C. c..
Miller, who had been driven from
his drug store across the street.
Her sister, a child not yet in her
teens escaped the fusillade with
out a scratch. Mrs. James hus-
band was wounded.
Mrs. S. T. Ryan, wife Of the
captain of troop f, and Capt. Ru-
doIph Smyser of troop H, with
Mrs. Smyser and her little child
ren had narrow escapes from the
bandits. The Ryan house fronts
regimental headquarters and the
ditch up along which Villa troops
came. 1t was riddled with bull
let's.
Mrs. Ryan was in bed in line
with front window facing the
ditch in which Villa opened the
attack. Bullets shattered the
the glass and struck through
her clothing arranged on a chair
near the bed.
Fred Griffin, private of K
troop was on sentry duty and
opened fire on a party of Mexi-
cans attacking the quarters of
Lieut.. John P. Lucas, command
ing the machine gun troop of
the Thirteenth cavalry. Griffin
fell morually wounded under a
volley of bullets, but killed two
MeXicans and then crawled to
the side of the Ryan home. Mrs.
Ryan, arising, ran around the
side OF the house under fire of
the MeXicans to an adobe gar
age. A party of bandits was
standing about Griffin. She
opened the garage when a MeXi-
can grasped her arm and de-
manded where she was going.
She answered calmly that she
was going into the building to
get motor car. The Mexican
let her go and during the fight
in the camp she remained in the
automobile unhurt.
Every piece of furniture in the
Ryan home was riddled.
The Smyser home, north of
the track. was surrounded in
front and both sides by bandits
before a shot was fled. Captain
Smyser heard someone tell the
/ MeXicanS that an American ar
my officer and his family
gathering his wife and children
he emerged from the back door
and reached the barn lust as the
bandits broke in the front door
The bandits looted the house
and were preparing to set fire
to the barn when the American
forces opened fire. Leaving
Mrs. Smyser nothing but the
nightgown in which she escap.
ed, Capt. Smyser managed to
Join his troop in time to partici.
pate in the battle in which the
Mexicans finally wee driven
from the town.
Capt. f. G.. Turner and his
wifi ewere in an adobe house Just
north of the railroad tracks
Mexicans pointed out his dwell
ing as a house occupied by an
American army officer. They
remained inside until the troops
in camp got into action and scat
tered the bandits.
| Villa dropped his personal pa
pers as he went with his fleeing
men back into Mexico. A note
found among these, evidently &
transcript of an order issued just
before the attack read "kill al
before a shot was fired. Captain
grinPoes."
Villas presence is accepted
here as discrediting his recent
assetions that he was not respon
