EXPED|T|0NARY FORCE NOT
GETTING THE COOPERATION
DESIRED FOR VILLAS CAPTURE
The One Crying Need for the Willing Exped0nay Force Is the
Mexican Central Naturalization Between De Facto
Troops and U. S. Soldiers Is Feared

Ell Paso, Tex, April 5.-The eyes of
men of the border were turned north

eral Carranza permitting the use of
the Mexican railroad by the Ameri-
can expeditionary force.
Now that it is definitely known that
Villa. is fleeing south far ahead of his
American pursuers, there is a fixed
opinion here that on the railroads
hinge General Pershing's main, if not
only. hope of capturing the bandit.
This opinion is not only expressed by
the American refugee colony here,

held by army officials who. among
friends, give their opinion of the sit

Villa Heading for Parral
With Villas flight toward Parral
and the virtual certainty that he is not
far from that town, it has ceased to
become n question of using the North

TROOPS SUCCESS
DEPENDS ON THE
MEXICAN ROADS
Administration Officials Now
Convinced that Much Depends
Upon the Use of the Mexican
Railroads

Washington, April 5.-katest develop
ments in the Mexican situation convinced
administration officials today that the
success of the American expedition now
largely depends upon the immediate
completion of arrangements for the use
of Mexican railways.
Officials were awaiting a reply to re-
newed representations sent to General
Carranza, through Special Agent Rod
gers at Queretaro, that the de facto gov

to permit the commercial shipment of
supplies to General Pershing's forces by
giving specific orders to General Gavira
at Juarez. and other Mexican command
ers in Chihuahua.
That the chase for Francisco Villa is
extending farther and farther into Mex
leo is evidenced by news of the second
clash between the United States cavalry
and band of outlaws near Guerrero
coupled with reports that the bandit
chieftain himself has left his command
broken into small groups, to occupy the
American pursuers while he fees south
ward for Parral. strengthened the belief
that arrangements for the use Of the

Although lacking official confirmation
in all its details, the report that squad
ron of the 10th Cavalry, the crack negro
troops, had encountered a band of Villa

zero, and had killed from 30 to 40 of the
outlaws, was read with satisfaction in

The fine oil-burning engines. equal to
the best in the United States, with
which the road was formerly equipped,
have disappeared or are wrecks. The
rolling stock is mostly burned or in a
state of wrecllage.
Would Cut Time
At the same time the American
troops could make far greater speed by
the railroad than they could hope by
any other way, in the opinion of the
staff of officials here. Before the
wrecking of the road. the running time
to Chihuahua City was eight hours and
50 minutes; from thence to Jiminez
five hours and % minutes and from
Jiminez to Torreon five hours and so
minutes, a total Of 10 hours and 80
minutes for the GIG miles between Jua-
rez and Torreon.
Even under the present conditions
trains have made the run from Chihua-
hua City to Juarez in Is hours. and it
is believed that with American crews
and engines this time could be mate
rally reduced.
Will Avoid Friction
There is some fear expressed here
that friction may be caused between
the American authorities and the de
facto government over the assertion or
the CarranZa generals that Villa is still
in the Guerrero region and wounded.
1t is felt that Carranza might object
to the American troops going further
south as long as his field commanders
maintain the bandit is in the noun
tains of the Continental Divide. At
the same time the fact that thus far
the first chief has shown no DISPOSE
ton to interfere with the movements
of General Pershing's columns is re-
garded as reassuring sign that any
serious differences will be avoided

Waite said there was $4,000 in the

duce him to put arsenic in a sample
of embalming fluid similar to thai
used on the body of Peck. The money
subsequently unearthed by Kane from
the spot where he had madden it on
Long Island amounted to $500.
Detective John Cuniff, who was
present, asked Waite if there was any
$40 bills in the rolls. Waite replied
that there were several.
THAT clears up the mystery" CuniR
said.
The roll which Kane dug up and
which he said he had never counted,
did not contain any bills Of that de-
nominal ton.
Waite appeared very weak and spoke
at times with an apparent effort.
