Expedition Has Now
Reached Critical Stage
BY associated Press

San Antonio, Tex, April 10.-Army
officers at Major General Funston's
headquarters We're almost convinced
to-day that by the end of the week
the work of the punitive expedition
in Mexico will have reached a critical
stage.
Reports from General Pershing in
dicate that he is driving his cavalry
farther and farther into Mexico. in
spite of the increasing danger that
they soon may be beyond reach of the
commissary department and out of
touch with an adequate support.
General Pershing appeared con-
vinced when he sent his last report
that Villa is moving forward only two
or three days march ahead of the
American advanced columns and maxi
ing good time, Notwithstanding his re-
ported wounded leg.
Rumors that the dc facto govern
ment Is becoming impatient at the
continuation of the man hunt are
heard here, but officials profess not to
believe them; on the contrary declar-
ing their belief that Carranza will
give his consent for the use of the
railroads south of Juarez to Chi
huahua and even beyond that city.

Deliveries Begin
Delivery of donations began with a
rush this morning. From $50 until
noon there had been delivered eleven
wagonloads of goods. along with
countless automobiles loaded with per-
ishable stuff. Everything under the
sun" is there. Apparently some house
holds have contributed the results of
six or seven years accumulations.
And with it all, the big store rooms
are eating the stuff up with apparently
ineXhaustible capacity. There is room
for five times the amount already
turned in. Some of the goods are of
exceptional value, and auction is the
probable plan of disposing of them.

BARNES FOR 7. R.
HARVARD STORY
Said So at 'SS Dinner. Is Re-
port; Pa. Delegation to
Back Him?

Rumors that potential Republican
leaders may be iound supporting Col
onel Roosevelt, whom they opposed in
1912. is confirmed in a dispatch from
Boston which the New York Sun
Prints to-day. 1t is as follows:
l am not going to see Il single
poutlcian and | am not going to have
a single thing of a political nature to
say while ! am here declared Theo-
dore Roosevelt when he alighted from
the New York train at the Hunting
ton avenue station a few minutes af-
ter 6 O'Clock last night.
However. as soon as Colonel
Roosevelt arrived Il story was circu-
lated that William Barnes of Albany
has made the statement that he be-
leNes Roosevelt will be nominated by
the Republicans for the Presidency
ana that in that event he would sup
port him.
The report came from two Har-
ward graduates who attended a dinner
given by the New York member of the
class of 1888 at the Harvard club in
New York about three weeks ago
Mr.. Barnes is n member of the 'SS
class and was at the dinner.
When the Albany politician and
editor was called upon for a few re-
marks, the story is, he asked that the
walters leave the room. saying he
hoped he would be pardoned for dis
cussing matters of a political nature
Mr.. Barnes then went on to state ac-
cording to the report here. that he
was confident Theodore Roosevelt
was to be the Republican nominee
and that II he was he would give him
his unreserved support.
MIR. Barnes said that his inquiries
had shown that Roosevelt was the
strongest man in the country to-day
and that sentiment was forShim every
where. In certain sections of the
West, Mr.. Barnes is quoted as saying
1t had been found there were foul
times as many voters favorable &c
Roosevelt as there were for all the
other mentioned" candidates put to.
gether.
This story was first told by one
graduate and afterward confirmed by
the other"
1t is known here in Pennsylvani
that certain candidates for delegates
to the national convention who are out
for Senator Penrose for party contro
are pledged to Roosevelt for the
Presidency. There is a growing i'm.
preston that Pennsylvania delegation
will face the colonel if the sentiment
of Republicans is unmistakably fol
him.
