OF NAVY
DANIELS AGAINST 1T.
Not in Sympathy With the Phelan Bill
for Naval Academy On the
Pacific Coast

Senator Phelan, Of California. in
PRODUCED in the Senate yesterday a bill
providing for the establishment of 4
new naval academy to be located on
the Pacific Coast, either at San Fran
cisco or on san Francisco Bay
If the measure were acted upon ia
vorably in the form in which it has
been presented to the Senate, it would
involve an expenditure OF $4,000 600
on the grounds and buildings OF the
new institution and the Naval Acad-
envy at Annapolis would have to share
honors with its Western rival in the
education OF the young men 10 be
officers of the navy
The introduction of the Phelan bin
may occasion misgivings in Maryland,
and cause CONSERVATION at Annapolis,
where it is believed that the Navy
should have one central educational
institution, and that if the government
is willing to spend an additional s10,-
600 900 on a new plant and equipment.
for educating midshipmen. this sum
should be used in the enlargement and
development of the historic institu
ton at Annapolis
Whatever the decree to which these
fears may be entertained, there is no
present prospect that the Phelan hill
viii be passed by the present Congress
or that il viii be advocated by the
Wilson administration or by Secretary
of the Navy Daniels, despite the infor-
nation conveyed in an interview with
Senator Phelan, when he said yester-
day that Secretary Daniels had ap
proved the purpose Of the bill

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR
WHAT 1T MEANS.
The Republic Management Has Selected
Pictures of Rare Type for Sat-
urday Morning Wholesome
and Entertaining,

and Entertaining.
Children's hour'a at Republic is every
Saturday a m. from 1890 to noon.
Mrs. Miller who is responsible Tor
this venture feels that few remarks
concerning the pictures shown will be
adequate. Her object was to reach
the children by giving them whole
some pictures and making the admis-
sion within the reach of all.
The pictures are mot only for the very
little tots--every mother and father
who has accompanied their child to a
"Chlldren's Hour" expressed their
delight at the type of pictures shown,
and it is gratifying to the manage
ment to know that their efforts are
appreciated. The management wishes
to reach every child-those who
revel in the unfolding of fairy tale,
those who are in ecstasy over the light
heartedness of comedians, and the
child who wants adventure, therefore
the program is so varied.
For tomorrow the program is
Treasure Island and Gretchen.
Some boys and girls who are in their
teens feel that they are too old for the
"Children's Hour"-but let them
remember to be "childsn" is not a
worthy tribute for adulescents, but
to be "childlike" is a commendsble
qualification for everyone and to attend
the Children's Hour" signifies their
appreciation of the wholesome and en-
PERTAINING.

Der of the consular service had been suspended pending an investigation of charges of disloyalty against him.
 Sir Roger was created a knight in 1911. He is 52 years old. It was Sir Roger, who in 1912. while consul gen. eral at Rio JaneirO, made a report on the torturing and killing of natives of Brizil by employees of the British com pany operating the Putumayo rubber fields. As result of his report {, British royal commission headed by him investigated the situation and brought about reforms in the treat ment of men employed in the indus try
 The news of the capture of Sir Ro- ger was received with satisfaction mingled with regret at the termina- ticn of what previous to his alleged ac- tvities with the Germans had been a brilliant career useful both to human lty and his own country. That he should have engaged in such a mad cap enterprise as the British official communication gives as the reason fo, ms seizure is considered as lendine color to tie view held by his ola friends here that he is mentally un- balanced.
 Little had been heard of Sir Roger in this country for many months. Last october a returned Irish prisoner re- ported that Sir Roger had visited the prison camp at Little Burg and vio- lently tried to induce Irish prisoners to join an Irish brigade he was said to be raising in Germany to fight against England It was reported a short time ago that Sir Roger had applied for citizenship in Bavaria. Later came a report from neutral country that he had been arrested in Germany on an unspecified charge.

From the Base

COLUMBUS, N. M. April 24.-Re- ports that the American admlnlstra- ton had decided to retain the eXpedl- tionarv troops in Mexico until the Ca rranza government demonstrates It's ability to capture or crush the Vlllls- ia bands resulted in no demonstrations along the American line of commuhl- cations. so far as ii could be learned tonight.
 Only routine dispatches arrived here
 from General Pershing at the front.
 Nc thing in them, it was said, indlcat-
 cd any renewal of activity on the part
 of the American commanders and
 nothing tended to support rumor that
 the troops of the Tenth cavalry had
 been engaged near Satevo. Army ot- ficers here. however, made no secret of
 their belief that as the news of the American stand filters through to the Mexican peons, the danger of clashes with forces of the de facto government will be materially increased and that more active hostility will be mani fested by bands of guerrillas, which have been reported to be sniping at supply trucks regularly recently. Unofficial reports reaching here to- day that Villa and few adherents are recuperating from the long hard flight | before American caValrymen in the | mountains northwest of Parral, were substartiatet by press dispatches from l the front which said the bandit leader was last reported near Nonoava in the Sierra Tara rahumares. Other reports said | that the American military authorities are in possession of new evidence that l Villa was sorely wounded.
 | No intimation reached here as to the l plans of General Funston for the re- disposition of his troops but is was confidently predicted that one of the | first steps would be the removal of the 1 hase.
 | With the arrival of the Sixth cav l airy expected tonight or tomorrow l from the Brownsville district of Texas, 1 the concentration of 2.300 troops or | dered to Columbus to be put to any
 use General Pershing sees fit, will be | complete. Some of the newly arrived

that he was far from being incapaci- tated.
 General Funston regarded the in formation that General Pershing had secured as authentic. No troops have been sent out. It was realized that the pursuit of Villa in the terrain he had chosen, it is believed can be success fully conducted, only after many more troons had been sent into Mexico
 Unofficial reports today indicated that Carranza had sent gradually into the north an army much larger than that of the American force, and great part of the Mexican force is in po- sition to conduct pursuit of Villa and his scattered organization that would be more effective than would be continuation of the American cam paign if conducted along the present lines

which he acted gave General Funston full discretion.
 It was pointed out at the depart ment that most of the American troops are now in the very heart of Casas Grandes, 100 miles south of the border and 300 miles north of General Pershing's most advanced column near Parral It is reported that this camp is now located at Ada la a small village not far from Par ral ..
 Officers hera would not be sur prised if the re-dispOsition saw all these outlying commands brought northward to the Casas Grandes re- zion where they could be fully sup piled without danger of being cut off, no matter what transpired, and also where they could establish an effective guard against further bandit attacks on the border.
 Secretary Baker admitted that General Funston could withdraw his men that distance if he thought best; put he said he had no knowledge that the border commander intended to do so.
 Confirmation of the capture by Car ranza troops of Pablo Lopez, Villas chief lieutenant, aroused much inter- est here Lopez is among those charged with having participated in the Columbus raid MT Arredondo said he was being held in jail at Chi huahua not only to give opportunity. for American officers to make cer- tain of his identity but also in order that witnesses might be summoned from Columbus.
 Official reports from Chihuahua said Lopez had confessed to partici- patton both in the Columbus raid and in the massacre at Santa Ysabel. twI months ago. The message said he was wounded and was travelling with cnly a few companions when taken. Neither through MT.

of further proofs to the contrary, that the United States does not desire war. which might quickly follow Q breach of relations. It adds; Tt is im- possible and unheard of that two countries should wage war because doubts about the Sussex could not be cleared up. and Germany must clear them up."
 The Cologne Gazette says there is no doubt that the Sussex case, which is still quite uncleared up," is "Only a pre- text for President Wilson to undertake a new hostile attack on Germany, while the real reason is to be found in the successes of the German submarine campaign and the damage it does to Germany's enemies"
 Berlin correspondence to the Cologne Nolks Zeitung says: President Wilson desires war. Many Germans knew and believed that before yesterday.
 The article further declares: "Presi dent Wilson demands that the subma- rine warfare cease altogether. The whole form and tone of the note shows that President Wilson desires a con- flict with Germany"
 The Rhenish Westphalian Gazette says: Germans desire no war witt America. with which they have so mucf In common, but they cannot sacrifice Germany's future to this friendship.

that Germany would go to great lengths to preserve friendly relations with the United States. Mir. Gerard is under slood- 10. nave gained his views during conversations with Berlin officials, in- ciuding Foreign Minister von JagoW.
 His dispatches are said to emphasize the difficulties by which the German government is confronted in endeavor- Ing to find way to meet the demands or the United States without destroying the effectiveness of the submarine war rare against the shipping of the en- tente allies.
 The state department tonight was awaiting a dispatch from Mir Gerard reporting the results of a lengthy con terence today with Dr. von Bethmann- 'Hollweg, imperial chancellor. Press olspatches announcing that the confer ence had taken place were closely read OiIlclals expressed a particular interest Tn that part of the press reports which lndicated that the reply to the Amer icah note would not be made until after the chancellor has had another oppor- tunlty to confer with the emperor who is at the front.
 The fact that. the conference lasted
 more than an hour was regarded as peihg hopeful sign, it being pointed out that II the German government was ulsposed not to meet the American de. mana, It was impossible that there would have been a discussion of sucI length. A report from Mir. Gerard is expected tomorrow.

Additional testimony was secured, tending to show that the old gentleman had occupied and had continuously cultivated his tract for eight or nine years-far more than enough to give him the title he sought.
 The amended case was laid before the commissioner, with the result that the claim has now been allowed.

WHATEVER RESULT
 N. M. FOR ROOSEVELT
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., April 24.- The republican state convention which is to elect delegates to the national convention at Chicago will meet here tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. The state central committee will meet at 10 o'clock in the morn ing to select temporary officers of the convention. Reed Folloman, of Santa Fe is slated for temporary chairman and City Clerk Thomas C.. Ferguson of Albuquerque for tenn porary secretary.
 The principal fight in the conven- tion is expected to come up over the adoption of resolutions barring fed eral and state office holders and can didates for office from places on the delegation which is to go to Chi cago. The adoption of such resolu- tions would mean an uninstructed anti-Roosevelt delegation with Ma tional committeeman Charles A. Spiess of Las Vegas, in control. Their defeat would mean delegation which, while not instructed, will be for Roosevelt in the event his nomi- nation seems possible.
 The convention which meets tomor- row is almost equally divided between supporters of Senator Thomas B. Catron, who is a candidate for re- election this year, and Frank A. Hub bell of Albuquerque, who is opposing him for the nomination. A fight on National committeeman Spiess is among the possibilities of the con- vention.

Villa Located Aqain

SAN ANTONIO, April 24-General Hugh l.. Scott, chief of staff of the United States army and General AL varo Obregon, CarranZa's minister of war, will formally discuss at Fl Paso or at some other agreed point near there, the questions that have arisen because of the entrance into Mexico of General Pershing's punitive expe- dition.
 Just when this conference will take place will depend upon when General Obregon can reach the border. Gen eral Scott late today received his in structions. It is assumed that it will require three or four days for the Mexican minister of war to make the trip.
 It was indicated that the depart mental headquarters here that the two officers will discuss in detail the various articles of the proposed pro- tocol pending between the two gov ernments which provide conditions under which armed forces of either country may be sent into the territory of the other to run down bandit
 
 is expected that tho further occupa- tion of Mexican territory by General Pershing's forces will be discussed. General Scott has made it clear that he is in thorough accord with the administration in its determina- ton not to withdraw the troops for the present and unless he receives | orders to the contrary. or different from those he already Mas, no move in that direction will be made until ! after his conference with General | Oregon.
 General Funston sent to General Pershing today the preliminary order ! for the reorganization of the troops along the lines he has raided and ! which had been approved. Already General Pershing has begun drawing on the mobile forces that have been | operating considerable in advance of the southern terminus of his long line of communication and the line itself will be made shorter. His headquar- | ters will be moved from Namiquipa | to Colonia Dublan in the environs of Casas Grandes and stronger units will be grouped along the shortened line l from Columbus to a point consider ! ably nearer the border than at pres | ent.
 This new disposition of troops, 1t Is expected will serve the purpose not only of defense but will enable Gen. cral Pershing to make rapid and eff fective moves in any direction in case there should be necessity for action. The new alignment of the forces will be maintained pending developments incident to the diplomatic negotiations.
 Reports from General Pershing to- day indicate that Francisco Villa had been located again, this time west of Parral, in the mountains of western Chihuahua. He was last reported at Nonoaya eighty five miles from Sa leVo. The report also indicated that l Villa was wounded but slightly and

WASHINGTON, April 24.-Indica- tons that powerful influences in Ger many are opposed to any action by the Berlin government which might lead to the severance of diplomatic relations with the United States are understood Co be contained in confidential dis patches received here by the state de- partment from Ambassador Gerard. Socialists and labor leaders are repre- scented as being particularly adverse to any such move.
 Other dispatches from MT Gerard were said to contain strong intimations that the Berlin government would make some, concessions to the United States in reply to the note demanding the immediate abandonment of present methods of submarine warfare. It still is uncertain, however whether the con sessions will be sufficiently broad in their scope to meet the American de- mands.
 Officials allowed it to become known that Mir. Gerard's dispatches indicated
