FORECAST INTERVENTION

z. El Paso Marsh 1S.--Villa boasted three months ago that he would force intervention in Merico by the United States, according to story told here today by Harry Williams of Chihua- hua, an American mining man. Will Hams asserted that he had heard Villa make the boast on December IS, last, when he was a prisoner of the bandit.
 "I was one of 39 Americans em- ployed on the mining property of the Madra company" said Williams. "We were all arrested because the pay of the Mexicans working under us had not arrived from Chihuahua. It amounted to s17.o0O and the company was afraid to send it because they were certain it would be confiscated.
 Villa brought us to Chihuahua and II have never seen him sn an uglier mood. We did not know whether We were going to be shot or not. but we were not by any means too optimistic. He told us: am going to force in- tervention by the United States in three months. The United States has recognized Carranza and must pay for it.
 He demanded ss1 1000 from the com- pany. I do not know whether it was paid or not, but we were released the next day after being warned to keep off the streets.
 T planned to leave on the train that was made up to take out the men of the Cushihuiriachic Mining company. Fortunately felt sick and could not go The next day I heard of the mas sacre of the IS Americans on the train at Santa Ysabel."
 MT. Williams has been IT years in Mexico. but says he is not anxious to return.

Mrs. Roberta Martin, who conducts the house, and Mrs. Hat tie Houseman. a neghbor, were present and when the men came to blows they ran with their children from the room. Later they were said to have heard two shots and then they saw McGraw, hatless and without his overcoat, rush from the house. They found Allen dead with pistol bullet wound in the head

ALL ADVICES TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT
 VERY MEASURING
(continued from Page One)

Associated Press at his headquarters al Juarez today in which he interpreted the | fact that no resistance had been offered to the American forces crossing the bor- der as proof of the faith of the Mexican people in Carranza. The statement was as follows:
 '"The constitutionalist army, formed by
 men of liberal thought and by armed citi-
 zens to fight oppression, has shown its force to the world by breaking the re- actionary efforts of Diaz, Huerta and Villa.
 "The American government. almost al- ways poorly informed, did not understand either our aspirations for liberty or our internal conditions. To decide in our favor by recommending us as the de facto government, 1t was necessary for the Secretary of State and the representa- tiyes of the A. E. c. conference to pub fish an unanswerable proof of our cohe- sion and discipline, series Of answers that, fiji om distant points and Without previous agreement, were sent them py the numerous liberal chiefs. These an swers were set forth in the note that we all know.
 "Now American troops have just crossed to our side of the line without protests
 or, difficulties. To what, then, is it to
 be attributed that the Mexican public, SC scrupulous and extremely sensitive in all that concerns it's sovereignty, has not r1 tested in the vigorous form it knows well how to make?
 Tt is because the people of Mexico have faith in us, because they know well the patriotism and the sense of honor of the first schief, and of the higher officers, military and civil, who are in control. They know that such men would not barter away the fath- erIand. Could the American people wish better proof of the power of the constitutfonalist army that has been
 constituted by the men of the revolu- tion?"
