TO pursue the bandits be magnifie6 into
the advance guard of a movement in
force to police all northern Mexico. Great
stress has been laid by all administra-
ton officials on the purely eXpeditionary
character OF the force that is to be
sent beyond the border.
CAVALRY on THE MOVE.
While General Funston was assem-
bling his expedition somewhere on the
border three regiments of cavalry and
one Of infantry were moving to his
points I'm the United States. The cavalry
was ordered out at his request Saturday
niEht, some from the Pacific coast, some
from the middle west and some from
the south. The infantry regiment, the
Twenty-third. now at Galveston, has
been under orders TO be in readiness for
several days. Ii will go to Ell Paso and
then be assigned by General Funston
TO border duty.
Secretary Baker explained the move
T.ienU OF the Twenty-third by saying that
great apprehension was felt in many
border towns that the Columbus raid
might be repeated. 1t is proposed TO
give General Funston ample force both
for the expedition and to protect border
residents.
While strictest secrecy was maintain
ed by the war department as to the force
General Funston has designated to pur-
sue Villa, information from the border
pointed toward a force of cavalry, noun
tain artillery and engineers which would
fetal between 5000 and 5000 men.
Detachments Of artillery and cavalry
now on the border have been moving
within the last day or two with no more
definite announced destination than east
ward or westward.
Observers here, however, have noted
that these detachments are all seasoned
forces. composed OF men who have been
long ON the border. 1t is vital TO the
undertaking that men and mounts be

will be under in the miles of deep sands

Funston Prepares Despite
Attitude of Carranza
(By Associated Press


SAN ANTONIO, Tex, March 15.-No
movement of the eXpeditionary force
that will search for Francisco Villa is
probable today, Major General Funston
ANNOUNCED this morning.
The geenral said preparations for the
IeXredition were going on, despite General
Carranza's notification to the Washing
ton government that he would not con-
sent to American troops entering Mexico
unless Carranza troopst were allowed to-
enter the United StateSsrsS .--i 80 u
At Fort Sam Houston it was Thought
That the delay in starting the seXpedi-
ton was not altogether undesirable, as
it would allow time for excitement
along the border to subside and aid in
the further strengthening of border
points. -s'-1.-.
1t was officially announced that Brig-
adler General John J. Pershing will com
mand the eXpeditionary forces. -.
General Funston said he had received
no notification from Washington to holt

were being completed with General Car

was hindering the concentration of cav

was one reason why "a. movement today
was unlikely. The fault, he said, lag

SIZE OF EXPEDITION.
I'VE have even had to transport men
in box cars" he declared. IF this had
been merely an infantry expedition We
could have been into Mexico on Villas
very heels, but this is largely a caval-
ry movement, and that is why there has
been delay"
Light was thrown on the size. Of the
expeditionary force by the general who
said:
when this movement is completed
there will be only six or eight regiments
left in the United States other than
those stationed along the border for pa
troll duty"
There will be no infantry and cavalry
men movement from Fort Sam Houston
for the present, it was announced today.
The first aero squadron, Captain Benja-
min ID. Foulois commanding, went for
ward to FL Paso this morning.
The developments in the Mexican sit
uation will not affect the citizens train
ing camp to be held here from June y
TO July s. At army headquarters it was
reported that the turn of affairs had
stimulated interest in the camp and that
for registration were pour
ing in daily. Plans for the affair are
going right ahead. ~

There has been no cessation of the
artillery play, however, the lombard

Woevre district where the French guns

lions, indicating the probability that
some move by the Germans to the east
or southeast of the fortress on the
French right flank, is anticipated.
A small engagement occurred in lie

ELECTRIC TRAAfWAY.

Although the line is ostensibly desig-
mated an electric tramway," yet the
charter granted in 1914 is understood 20
permit the operation of a steam rail-
road.
Although the proposed road ends at
Creighton, about six miles from Ball
ground. Ca, on the l.. & Ms. tracks run
ming north from Marietta to Etowah
Junction. Tenn. yet it is thought thaI
the L. & N will not attempt TO connect
up at Background, but will connect the
new line with their main trunk road
running north from Gainesville. This
connection is expected to be somewhere
near Ranger, Ga.
The line running north from Marietta
while used for local trains and light
freight traffic, is said to be so poorly
constructed in regard to steep grades,
etc. that il would be cheaper for the
road to make connections with the main
trunk line rather than improve the
Marietta line to Etowah Junction. At
Etowah Junction the two lines join and
run north to Knoxville, and thence to
Cincinnati and other points.
At present the L. & Ms two lines
from Tennessee stop on the western
and Atlantic railroad at Gainesville
and at Marietta. If the proposed new
extension went through, the trains
would swing off at Ranger from the
main trunk line and pass through hith-
erto undeveloPed but rich territory into
Atlanta, thus making the L. & n. indie
pendent of the state-owned Western and
Atlantic railroad.
