BANDIT AFTER STOPPING At
SANTA ROSALIA, TURNED
WEST TO IA BOUQU,LLA,
MESSAGE SAYS.
FADING HOPES OF EARLY
ENDING OF CHASE REVIVED
Another Brilliant Dash Like Dodd's
Ride to Guerrero May Bring Troop.
ers Up With Fugitive Bandit
Chieftain's Immediate object
10 Parral, Belief.

Ell Paso. April 10-Francisco Villa
has been definitely located at La Bou-
quilla, according to a code message
received here from Torreon, Mex. La
Bouquilla is So miles southeast of Sa-
tevo and about an equal distance north
Of Parral.
The message said that the bandit
had been at Santa Rosalia a couple of
days ago and from there had turned
west to La Bouquilla.
Santa RosaIia Deserted.
Santa Rosalia is on the Mexican
Central railroad. eight miles southeast
Of Chihuahua City. 1t formerly was
one of the most important mining
towns in Central Chihuahua. Some
millions of American dollars are said
to be invested in the Santa Rosalia
mines and smelter. but the place has
been practically deserted since Mexi-
cos present troubles began.
From Santa Rosalia, a short spur on
the Central railroad runs west to La
Bouquilla, about 20 miles distant The
latter place is the site OF the famous
udicutid IlOI OpIIHSS, HedllH ToSOTC
which rivalled the most celebrated
spas Of Europe in the days OF Porfirio
Diaz. 1t was run by Americans who
operated magnificent hotel there.
but like Santa Rosalia it has been In
solitude for the last two years.
Brilliant Dash May End Chase.
The message from Torreon has
again revived the fading hopes of q
successful termination to General
Pershing's expedition. American
troops are known to have reached Sa.
tevo and are believed to have pushed
south Of that town. The chance that
another brilliant dash like Dodd's ride
to Guerrero may bring the troopers
up with the fugitive bandit is being
eagerly discussed here.
The news from Torreon. provided
that 1t proves correct, gives fresh sup.
port to the belief that Villas immedi
ate object is Parral From La Bou
quilla great gulch or ravine known
as the arroyo Alamo runs directly
south toward Parral for distance of
more than 20 miles. 1t is through this
arroyo that the bandit is expected ia
strike toward Parral
