EXPENSES piLL,NG UP.

Washington, D. c., March 31.--Gen.
Funston had instructions to make the
first test today of Gen. Carranza's plan
for the commercial use of the Mexican
Northwestern railroad for shipping
supplies to the American troops pur-
suing Villa. BY rendering his first
consignment to the railroad. Funston
will begin the fair trial that is to be
given the de facto governments con.
cessions. In the meantime the United
States will not press for an extension
of the arrangement although doubt
regarding its adequacy is expressed in
official quarters.
To the expense of the expedition en-
tailed by the purchase of eight BIZ
planes and two thousand cavalry
horses, arrangements for which are
underway, today was added to the ex.
ira pay for foreign service to, troops
actually in Mexico. 1t was the first
pay day for the American forces since
they crossed the border. Foreign SER
vice calls for twenty per cent bonus
for enlisted men and ten per cent for
officers. At the quartermaster gen.
erals Office it was estimated that the
additional pay would amount to about
$36,70 monthly.
