VILLA FLEEING SOUTH
Bandit Believed Trying to Mass
Large Army and Then Fight
Americans.

Ell Paso. Tex. March 29.-Dis-
catches from the front interpreted in
connection with news brought here by
Americans returning from different
points in the interior of Chihuahua,
caused belief that Pancho Villa was
headed for San Adres, about twenty
five miles southwest of Chihuahua
City. a favorite headquarters of the
bandit. He is believed to be already
not less than fifty miles ahead of his
pursuers.
If Villa is able to effect junction
with Canuto Reyes around Parral and
Torreon the problem of his extermina-
ton will have become a very serious
one. as he will then be able to control
several thousands of soldiers. who.
split into guerilla bands, might be
able to keep up desultory mountain
warfare for an unlimited period.
The supplies question oyershadows
everything else now. Army officers
here say that upon its solution dc
pends every chance of successful
termination to the pursuit of the
bandit.
