Republican senators, went to the Dor

Columbus to investigate general con-
ditions there, declared in a letter re-
celved today by Senator Gallinger, the
minority leader, that Carranza troops
were not cooperating with the Amer
lean expedition in any way or making
any attempt to attack Villa. He COM
planned that the border patrol was not
being maintained in adequate force,
and said an unguarded gap of nine
miles had made the Columbus raid pos
sible.
"The Mexicans," said the letter,

The letter emphasized the POSSIBLE
tiles of the Mexican trench 'lefenses

stories of concentration of Carranza
troops along the border had been ex
aggerated. The senator said that al
the time he wrote there was no border
patrol west of Douglas and had been
none between Gibson ranch and
Hachita, 80 miles to the west. He de-
clared Villas sympathizers were over
running virtually northern Mexico and
that Villa easily could capture Chihua
hua where the garrison was friendly
to him.

El Paso, April 1O.-General Gabriel
GaVira, Carranza commander at Juarez
tonight announced that the forces of
the defacto government were in posi-
ton to take immediate control of the
Villa situation if the American troops
withdrew.
General Gayira's statement was
made in connection with the announce
ment of Major General Scott, chief of
staff Of the American army, that the
purpose of the expeditionary force
would be considered accomplished
when the Villista bands were dispersed
or "as' soon as the troops of the de
facto government are able to relieve
them of the work.
1--WE have more men than enough
now,'' said General Gavira. IF we
were able to overcome Villa when he
had 10000 men, over a hundred can
non and plenty of supplies, we should
be able to dispose of him now when
his numbers have dWindled to a few
hundred. But it is big territory to
operate in and a single man has
more chance to escape and hide than
a large force. However. on account
Villas wounded condition, we think
he will be taken soon. If not, it is
hardly likely that without proper sur
gical care, he will survive long"
The arrival of General Bertani i'm
Juarez gave renewed force to the re
port that General Gavira has been
dered to the field.
General Gavira said today the trials
of the men implicated in the plot to
sieze Juarez, in the interests Of Felix
Diaz has been practically completed,
and that the death sentence would
probably he passed in three OF four
cases.

Washington, April S.-Secretary Ba-

Of the expeditionary force was con-
templated, said that the war depart
ment had information that the troop
ers were close on the trail OF Villa
and the expedition might soon accom-
plish the purpose for which it was
sent over the border.
1.-The object of the expedition was
stated when it was undertaken" said
Secretary Villa. 1T has never been
changed. No other orders have been
given and the expedition is busily
pursuing it now with what I hope
Is fair chance of early success"
Reports that preparations for with
drawal were under way were de-
clared by Mr.. Baker to have "abso-
Iutely no basis Of any kind
Publication today of the text of the
original army order to cross the Dor
der a month ago reveals that no
specific direction to capture or kill
Villa was included. The order made
public by Major General Scott, chief
of staff. stated that the work Of the
Z. S. troops would be regarded fin
ished as soon as Villas band or bands
are known to be broken up and
that the Americans would withdraw
"as soon as the de facto government
of Mexico is able to relieve them Of
this work.
Secretary Baker and General Scott
said the order was Unchanged; that
no new or supplemental order had
been given and that General Funston
had not yet reported that the Ameri-
can expeditions object had been at
tanned 1t was recalled that on the
day the troops crossed, SecretaryBa-
ker said their object was ito capture
or dispense" the bandits who raided
Columbus.
Secretary Lansing also issued a
statement today stating he knew or
no intention to withdraw the troops.
1t was, stated officially today that

A BIG ENTERPRISE IS
PROJECTED FOR DAWSON
MILLING PLANT TO CONVERT
GRAIN, VELVET BEANS, ETC,
INTO STOCK FEED.

An enterprise that will mean much
to the agricultural interests of Ter
rell county and surrounding section,
and go far towards minimizing the
damage the boil weevil is expected to
do, is under consideration by a num-
Der of enterprising citizens Of Daw-
son and Terrell county, including
farmers, bankers and merchants.
1t is the erection of large feed
and grain mill in Dawson for the pur-
pose of converting the farmers pro-
duce, such as corn, oats, velvet beans,
peanuts, ETC., into marketable feed
stuffs, for which there is always a
heavy demand.
| Andalusia, Ala, has the reputation
of having beaten the weevil, done
more than any other town and county
to overcome the destructive effects of
the pest, and this desirable state of
affairs has been brought about by di-
versified farming and furnishing the
farmers a market for their produce.
The erection of plants to put the pro-
duce in marketable form IS contrib
uting much to the prosperity of the
Andalusia section, and for the pur-
pose of learning at first hand just
what crops are being grown there,
how they are marketed and what
mills have been erected to aid in rev.
| authorizing conditions, several of the
men who are interested in the Daw-
son project are planning to visit An
dalusia in the next few days. Those
/ who are expected to go are Wyatt
Bridges, T. c. Hollingsworth, w. j.
Mathis, X. S. Worthy, M. D. Laing,
R. L. Saville, ]. A. Shields and per-
haps others.
An enterprise such as it is pro-
posed to erect at Dawson will mean
more to this part of the country than
can be estimated, because it will give
the farmers a market for other
things than cotton, and that is what
is going to be needed with the weevils
in the fields.
With a market for other products
the farmer will be asked to cooper
ate and not to plant more cotton than
can be cultivated according to the adj
vice Of men who have become eXper-
fenced with weevil conditions.
If the farmers and business men OF
Terrell county go down under the
weevips weight it will be largely their
own fault.

PROPOSITION.
Proposal of Remarriage of Divorced
Persons VIII Be Considered by
the House of Bishops.

st. Louis-The house of deputies
of the general convention of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church here reject
ed the proposal to embody in Its can
ons a provision forbidding its clergy
men to solemnize marriage for a per-
son divorced from living spouse.
The six hours debate which pre-
ceded the action indicated wide diff
ference of opinion among members OF
the church. The recommendation was
contained in the report of joint COM
mittee composed of five bishops, five
clergymen and five laymen, appoint
ed three years ago to study matters
relating to matrimony.
By its action the lower house of
the convention placed in allegiance
for at least three years further con-
sideration of any such amendment.
The present canon provides that a
clergyman of the church may re-
marry the innocent party" to a d.
vorce granted on statutory grounds.
The proposal, however, is pending
in the house of bishops, the upper
house, and will be brought to vote.
Such action will be merely for the
purpose of indicating the attitude of
the bishops. for no change in the can.
ons can be made without concurrence
of both houses.

and laywomen to England to aid the
