FL PASO, April 24-Information received here today by an American mining concern with large interests in the Guerrero district stated. that the majority of the American troops were now concentrated near Nami quipa. Two weeks ago, according to the same sources there were 1000 United States troops camped at San Antonio, sixty-five miles southeast of Namiquipa, with a very large quan tity of supplies. It is said that at present there are not more than 300 troops at San Antonio. the remainder together with most of the supplies having been withdrawn north. According to the most reliable in- formation obtainable here General Pershing has concentrated his forces i at Namiquipa and Colonia Dublan with heavy attachments guarding the much shortened line of communica- . ! stion. This movement has caused con- siderable dismay to the intervention

When They Find Out Pre- cisely What President Wilson Wants They Will Let Him Know What They Will Do
NO LIMITATIONS
 ON SUBMARINES
Berlin Is Willing to Put Former Pledges In Other Language But Will Con- cede Nothing More to Avoid a Break
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1

BERLIN, April 24, II a. m. (Via London, l0:2s D. m. delayed)-The outcome of the present crisis depends on what President Wilson and the American government want The general view Of the present situation as gleaned from conversation with a number of persons close to official circles Is about as follows:
 If President Wilson and the Amer ican government are urguing that earlier concessions by Germany have not been adhered to and insist that the submarine campaign be conducted without deviation from within the limits of German assurances and pledges in former notes, then a set tlemen. probably can be arranged. notwithstanding what is considered the sharp and unfriendly tone" of the American note. The pledges probably can be re-stated. if need be and definitely formulated anew, so that there can be no possibility of er- TOT or question of responsibility
 If. however. the United States, in- sists on further limitation of the sub- marine war against commerce, then there apears to be little chance of agreement for a satisfactory settle ment and it is considered that a breach of diplomatic relations. if il should come, would in all reliability be only a temporary status and soor would develop into an actual state of war"
 This view is not official or author itative. but represents the opinion ot persons who are in a position to bt well informed. These persons care fully refraine1 from making definit, TT authoritative predictions. and spec flied that they were stating only thei own opinions but these may possibl he straws showing which way tn wind is blowing.
 The request of Dr. von Bethmann Hollweg for q conference with Am bassador Gerard tonight is though to have been inspired by the desire 0 the imperial chancellor to find ou what President Wilson's intention actually are.

WASHINGTON. April 2i.-Aroused bv Minority Leader Mann's success on two occasions today in keeping the army bill as amended by the senate from going to conference, the house democratic leaders declared tonight that without further delay they would force their legislative program through with the aid of special rules. A rule to discharge the military committee from further consideration of the army bill and to permit the speaker to appoint house conferees after a debate on one motion to re commit will be reported by the rules committee tomorrow A majority of the members of the committee will suggest an hours debate on the mo- tion but if this is not agreeable to
 the republican minority, the debate will be limited to twenty minutes on each side.
 Following the disposal of the agri-

 This course was agreed upon de spite the protests of republicans tha
 some preparedness or appropriation measures should receive immediat,
