REPORTS OF VILLAS CAPTURE
BELIEVED UNFOUNDED

Many reports have been sent out within
the past week, claiming the capture Of
General Francisco Villa, by Carranza SOL
diers, but these are now believed to have
been unfounded The probability is that
the whereabouts of the bandit chief is
unknown. The general supposition, how
ever, is that he has taken refuge in his old
haunts among the Sierra Madre mountains,
Of Mexico, where he is familiar with every
gorge and mountain trail
If reports are to be believed, the Car
rama soldiers are determined to follow
him relentlessly, until he is surrounded
and captured. An editorial writer sarcas-
tically remarks that we may expect Villa
to hold the record for being frequently
executed in the news dispatches from Mex
ico," for some time to come

aroused in Congress, by the massacre Of

GERMAN AEROPLANES RAID
COUNTY OF KENT, ENGLAND

German aeroplanes, on January %, made
two raids on the east coast Of the county
of Kent, England, in which London is
situated. Official statements indicate that
the attacks did not reach London, but
were confined to the districts further to
the east The first raid was made before
daylight, in the morning; the other, at
high noon.
The aeroplanes were engaged, according
to reports, by large number Of anti
aircraft guns, and pursued by two British
machines It is thought probable that
these aeroplane attacks will supplant the
Zeppelin visits until the weather is more
favorable. Aeronautic experts have called
upon the English government to make bet
ter preparation against the giant Fokker
battle planes.

Whether postmasters, in the larger Of

NEWS OF THE WORLD
GREEK MONARCH ASSAILS ALLIES,
THROUGH AMERICAN PRESS

King Constantine Of Greece, a few DAYS
ago made statement through the press
agents Of the United States, protesting
against the abuses which the allies had
heaped upon the Greek nation. He de-
clared that he had tried, in every way that
he knew how, to get fair play from the
British and French press, but they had
continued to publish the most amazing
perversion of facts and misrepresentation
of motives
He said that the present relation of
Greece with the allies, was as if a foreign
power had occupied that part of the
United States which had been won from
Mexico after the Mexican war, and that
the plea Of military necessity, advanced
by the allies, was similar to that given by
Germany for invading Belgium.
The king declared that it was the merest
can't for Great Britain and France to talk
about the violation Of the neutrality of
Belgium and Luxembourg, in view Of what
they themselves are doing in Greece. He
said that the allies were trying to unload
upon Greece, the result of their own stupid
lty. Eighty per cent of the Greeks, he
declared, favored the allies at the begin
ming, but now not more than 20 per cent.
would turn their hands to give them aid.
