AMERICAN CAVALRY
FLYING SQUADRON COVERED ONE
HUNDRED AND TEN MILES IN
TWENTY-FIVE HOURS.
Were Fifty Miles in Mexico Before
Natives Woke Up and Reached
Colonia Dublan Forty-two Hours
After Crossing Border.

WashingtOn.-A report from the
Headquarters of the punitive expedi-
ton into Mexico, near Colonia Dub
Ian, Chihuahua, says the soldiers
reached that point by forced march
that demonstrated the endurance OF
the American soldier and obviously
amazed Mexicans. Several thousand
United States troops, cavalry, infan-
try and artillery are scattered between
this point and the northern boundary
of the district of Guerrero, intent on
the task of capturing or killing Fran
cisco Villa in the shortest possible
time and exterminating the bandit
band with which he raided Columbus,
N. NJ, and slaughtered nine civilians
on March 8. Troop movements and
dispositions, however, it was said,
were shrouded in the strictest secrecy,
by order of the war department.
The entry into Mexico occurred at
1907 p. m. March Is. At that moment
the American colors with the standard
of the Thirteenth cavalry, 200 men OF
which beat off Villas raiders despite
the surprise movement of the Mexican
brigands, were carried over the boun-
Diary by the color guard. Col. Herbert
J. Slocum, commanding the Thir-
teenth, was the first commissioned Of
ficer to cross. He was followed by
Maj. James A. Ryan, acting chief of
staff to Gen. John ]. Pershing, who
commands the punitive EXPEDITION.
This was column No 1, consisting of
infantry, artillery and cavalry, and
burdened with heavy wagon trains. 1t

first night at Palomas, a filthy vii
lage of adobe huts anG "go-downs"
seven miles below the boundary, south
of Columbus. Columbn No. 2 entered
Mexico from Culberson's ranch, fifty
miles south of Hachita, N NJ Gen
eral Pershing, who had accompanied
the first column to Columbus the same
afternoon, raced to Culberson's in an
automobile, and taking command of
the second or flying column" drove
it more than 10 miles over the des-
ert of Chihuahua in twenty-five hours
actual marching time. Official records
show that spies dotted the route of
the first column, but the men of the
second had forged their way fifty miles
into the country before single ma
tive was seen; and to the patent sur
prise of the Mexicans reached here
Friday night exactly forty-two hours
after crossing the border Thursday.
