cision OF the entente allies at the re-
cent Paris conference"

Ell Paso, Tex, April 4.-The capture
of Villa-the trapping OF American
troops--an uprising of all factions
against the United States involving
the overthrow of Carranza-all these
things appear to rest in the hands oil
Gen. Luis Herrera. He has been foe
of villa but recently was reported TO
have quit Chihuahua at the head of a
force of LOO men.
Monday II was said Herrera had
taken his stand at the key to the
route along which Villa is fleeing
from Dodd's cavalry and the infantry
and artillery which lumbers along in
the rear all Il part of Gen. Pershing's
sxpeditionary force.
1t may be Herrera's intention to
fight villa and dispose of the bandit
before Pershing's men arrive. At the
same time, II is pointed out here, the
common resentment against Ameri-
can invasion may have served to weld
together these once inveterate enc
mics. There are rumors OF negotia-
tions between Herrera and Villa
which, II true, might mean disaster
even massacre-for the Americans
who are 300 miles south of the border
and GO miles behind villa. The ban
dts flight is taking him along
