LITTLE NEWS FROM THE
MAIN INVADING F0Rgsg,


Washington, March 1.-THE main
american expeditionary force in Mex
leo has encountered none of Villas
outlaws, according to reports reach
ing the war department in a field
wireless message, relayed from the
border. Army officials here believe
Villa is fleeing before the American
advance and the campaign soon will
develop into guerrilla warfare, If any
opposition is developed.
In the senate today a concurrent
resolution by LaFollette was passed
declaring congress approved of the
pursuit Of Villa and giving assurances
that the sovereignty Of Mexico will
not be encroached upon.
With the exception Of Torreon and
Tampico, consular reports show con-
ditions in Mexico are quiet. Torreon
has been a Villa hotbed. The unrest
at Tampico is said to be due to the
attitude of Mexicon troops there dat
ing back some time. 1t is believed the
attitude Of the Carranza government
will soon forestall the possibility Of
any trouble there.

Columbus, March 1.-Two detach-
nents of cavalry left the main base
here today, going west. Whether
they intended to reinforce the punt
tive expedition is not known. One re-
port indicated they are going to pro-
!. tect the line Of communication Of that
portion of the expedition under Col
onel Dodd, who entered Mexico fifty
miles west of here simultaneously
with the main force leaving here for
the south.
Troop trains overnight swedded the
Columbus camp to nearly the size of
the original expedition, and work is
under Roadway making Columbus a
great base. Reports that members
Of the American expedition were hit
by snipers is not confirmed here, and
has been officially denied at headquar-
ters at San Antonio. There it is in
dicated in army circles that General
Pershing soon will be in a position to
divide his forces and begin system
attic search for Villa. Dodd should
have effected junction with Per-
shing's main force today, as Dodd's
command, composed solely of cavalry,
should move faster than the main
force.

growing uneasiness among Americans
throughout Mexico, especially in the
north and west was evidenced today
by reports from various sections that
United States citizens were either on
their way to the border or were pre-
pairing to leave.
At practically every point of entry
along the northern and the northwest
ern frontier, Americans arrived today
from the interior. In the majority Of
instances they said they were leaving
as matter of precaution.
The most significant report was re-
cefved from Durango where the Amer
lean vice consul advised that his wife
and child be sent out of the country.
This followed closely on the arrival
last night on the border Of the Amer
lean consul from Torreon with large
number Of Americans.

Benson In FAVOR
Of Guantanamo
As a Naval Base
- ASSOCIATED RES.

Washington, March 17.-Admiral
Benson, chief Of the bureau Of opera
tions, told the house naval committee
today that he favored navy yard at
San Francisco equipped to build all
the battleships necessary for the Pa
cifc coast. He said he did not favor
the two million dollar appropriation
made by the senate yesterday for the
Puget sound navy yard. Puget sound
is teo easily approached by nations
across the Pacific, he said.
He favored Guantanamo as a pri-
mary base in the Caribbean. While
he advocated the construction of bat
tie cruisers, he did not believe it wise
to divert the navy's energies radically
frena battleships to battle cruisers.
