SAN ANTONIO. April 1.-Absence of news today from the district about Guerrero did not diminish tine be lief at General Funston's headQuar- ters that General Pershing was driv- ing the scattered and defeated ban dits of Villas force from the hills and trails in that part of Chihuahua and that possibly Villa himself had been captured.
 Brief messages told of the continua tion of the ride of Col. Dodd's caval- ry and supporting forces that General Pershing had sent forward. but the results of the operations of Thursday. Friday and today are unknown. at headquarters.
 A written report from General Per shing sent two days before the fight at Guerrero was received. hut this dealt only with the details of the troop dis positions since crossing the border and the difficulties he had encounter ed in getting his suplies and in main taining communication. He reported that the engineers forces were work ing on the road north of Casas Gran des and on that part extending south ward towards Namiquipa. The roads south of Casas Grandes were reported in better condition than those to the north. He also called attention to the fact that the aeroplanes are equip ped with engines of too low power Press dispatches. telling of report from Chihuahua that Villa had been captured at Minaca only a few miles south of Guerrero. received. were re- ceived by officials here and there was no disposition to belirtle it. Both Gen Funston and his sta ffofTicers said they would not be surpriesd if it were true. They were convinced of the truth of the report that Villa was badly wound ed prior to the fight at Guerrero and it was believed that his escape was now highly improbable.

GERMANY NOT WORRIED.

BERLIN. April 1.-(Via London)- The new measures taken by Holland are not directed against any power in particular and neither Germany nor the Entente powers have reason to be uneasy about them. They are direct ed merely by prudence in view of the policy that Holland might eventually become involved in the war and have no other purpose than to further the maintenance of the strictest neutral ity
 The foregoing is the substance of information received by Darien Gev- CTS. the Dutch minister to Germany, this morning with instructions to communicate it to the German foreign office.
 The baron went immediately to the foreign office. The Dutch minister emphasized the fact that the measures only were directed by prudence and indicated no intention on the part of Holland to change its course.
 Private advices reaching here from Holland connect the new measures directly with the Instructions at the Paris conference of the Entente al- lies regarding their future economic relations with Hollond.
 The Associated Press learns the news of the situation indicated by Holland increased watchfulness in re- garded not only without uneasiness but even with a certain degree of satisfaction in official German circles.

SCANDINAVIA ON EDGE.

LONDON. April IA great stir has been caused in Scandinavia by the report that Great Britain has de cided to suspend section 19 of the de- claratiOn of London. according to the Coppenhagen correspondent of the Exchange Telegraph company. The general opinion is the decision is at tributed to a decision to prosecute the blockade of Germany with more vigor.
 Some newspapers suggest that the suspension is possibly a preliminary to a formal announcement of a com plete blockade, which may have been decided upon at the Paris conference of the Entente allies.
 Great Britain issued an order in council March 30. which declared that neither a vessel nor her cargo shall be immune from capture for a breach of blockade upon the sole ground that she at the moment is on her way to a non-blockaded nort"
 This is in cOntravention of section 19 of the declaration of London which declares that neither a vessel nor her cargo on her way to a non-blockaded port would be molested.

SAN ANTONIO. Tex, April l. Villas loss in dead at the battle with Americans at Guerrero Wed nesday was placed at sixty by General Pershin today in report to General Funston. The bodies were found in houses in Guerrero and scattered in the underbrush for miles along the routes taken by the fleeing Mexicans. Villa himself was believed to be north east of Guerrero. But General Pershing expressed the belief that thre was little chance of his es-
 cape, for attachments from four regiments of cavalry have been disposed in such manner in the district that he has been reported surrounded and escape carefully guarded. General Pershing's re- port was dated March 3l-April 1" causing army officers here to believe it was written yesterday but not filed until today. Addi- tional details of the fighting about Guerrero were not given by Gen. Pershing, but he said yesterday that a snowstorm sweeping over the San Geronimo ranch. a region of high elevation, had made the operations of the troops more diff cult and exceedingly uncomfor- table for the soldiers who were moving with light equipment
 From Customs Collector Cobb. at Fl Paso. General Funston re ceived telegram saying that an American from Mexico had re- ported to him that Villas men had killed a German named Blancken- ship and two Americans whose names he did not know on March 27. few miles from Guerrero.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The Sen ate debated the army increase bill a. gain all day today without any indica- tion as to when work would begin on the mass of details. As yet Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the miiltary committee, has made no effort to limit general discussion which began yes terday and it probably will continue several days at least before the de tails are taken up.
 Senator Borah told the Senate he had found an insurmountable, consti- tutional barrier against the proposal in the bill for Liberalization of the Ma tional Guard. He gave many legal cl- tations to support his contention that Congress has not the power to enforce the discipline it has the authority to prescribe.
 Senator Cummins and Senator Lew is sharply disagreed with Senator 3o- rah. The Illinois senator asserted that the ambition of regular army officers to rise to deserved promotions was wholly responsible for the voluntary army proposals. Because the nation was resolved not to maintain a large standing army and since the constitu- tion barred the graduates of West Point from promotion in the National Guard he said naturally they sought an avenue of escape.
 Senator Pomerene defended his ann endment proposing creation of a na- tional guard reserve. Senator Brande- gee added to the mass of amendments now pending. proposal to make the maximum peace strength of the army 250.000 instead of 1S0,0OO as proposed in this bill. Senator Gore submitted as an amendment. his bill proposing that military training course be pro- vided for any high school with an at tendance of more than 450 pupils which are of age for military service.
 Another feature of national prepar- edness was considered today by the House commerce commission with Sec retary Redfield testifying in support of the lighthouse appropriation bill
 He said the 250 seagoing boats. now in service, would be available as mine planters or sweepers in war time The drag equipment for loading pinnacle rocks. he added. would be invaluable for mine sweeping or to trap hostile submarines.
 The House naval committee was not in session. Secretary Daniels is ex. pected to conclude his testimony Mon. day, when the hearings will be brought to close. Chairman Fadgett hopes to have the navy bill before the House two weeks later

CREDIT FOR RESCUE

SHERNESS, April 1.-Credit for res cuing the survivors of the Zeppelin LIS belongs to the scouting trawlel Olivine, commanded by Lieut.. Wm. R. Macintosh. Royal Naval Reserve, but naval men freely conceded that the credit for bringing the Zeppelin down belongs to one of the land batteries, which may be described as stationed in an eastern county.
 The Zeppelin came down in the broad mouth of the Thames. Saturday morning. These stretches of water, as well as the adjoining coast water, swarm with patroIling sraft. The air shifts back had been broken by gun fire; her gondolas were riddled with shrapnel bullets. Several of her crew were badly wounded.
 Her commander had sufficient con fidence in the humanity of British sai- lors to send out wireless signals of dis tress.
 "She came down like a sick bird, Hopping at both ends. as if they were wings" said sailor who witnessed the descent of the Zeppelin.
 The sea was smooth and the night was clear, though dark. so the trawler was able 10 take aboard wounded as well as unwounded. Some of the crew were at the top of the balloon while the wounded and their attendants re- mained in the basket below.
 After all the survivors were aboard the Olivine, the crew of the trawler attached a cable to the Zeppelin in the hope that they would be able to bring it in, but the airship broke in two. Her ends stuck up in the air while the mid de section was well down in the wat CT. After making about two miles the Zeppelin became waterlogged. A de- stroyer brought the survivors to shore The wounded were placed in a hospi- tai.
 ATTACKED IN DAYLIGHT
 PETROGRAD. April l. (via Lon don. April 2)-The official statement on the sinking of the Russian hospital ship Portugal in the Black Sea last Thursday reads as follows:
 At eight o'clock on the morning of March 30. the Franco. Russian hospital ship Portugal, lying in the Black Sea off eastern Anatodila. was attacked by a German submarine. Two torpe- does were fired. The second torpedo bit the engine room of the vessel and she sank in less than a minute.
 Eleven out of 26 Sisters of Charity were saved by boats which accompan- jed the Portugal. The missing in clude Count Tatisticheff. delegate of the Red Cross. Dr. Pancricheff, Baro- ness Meverndoreff, Sister Superior of the Sisters of Charity; fourteen Sis ters of Charity; fifty Russian mem bers of the crew and Red Cross and 29 men of the French crew. There were 273 persons aboard the Portugal of whom 15S were saved
 The Turkish government had rec ognized the Portugal as hospital ship. She was painted with the pre- scribed colors. The attack was made in broad daylight. The submarine
