AS RESULT OF THE
BORDER AGREEMENT
Obregon To Throw Entire
Force Into Territory To Rid
1t Of Bandits
u. S. TROOPS REDISPOSED

Ell PASO. May 5.-Mexican military
men believe that the withdrawal of
the American troops from Mexico
VIII take place In about two months.
IL was learned here tonight
The Mexicans say that in view of
the dispositions TO be made by Gen
eral Obregon in keeping with Ameri-
can forces according TO the tentative
agreement made with General Hugh
l.. Scott. the hunting down of the
bandit groups in chihuahua and Du-
range can scarcely take more than
that period OF time.
On assurances from General Car
rama that the bandits are dispersed.
the northward movement of Ameri-
can troops will attain full speed and
II VIII not be long until the last
trooper crosses over the international
boundary line.
In the meantime there will be con
stant movements northward of Amer
lean detachments so that with the
tinal order for withdrawal there will
be only part OF the present eXpedi-
uonary force left on Mexican soil
Answers TO the long dispatches sent
today 10 Washington by General Scott
and 10 Queretaro by General Obregon
were not expected here before tomor-
row II the terms settled upon by
General Scott and General Obregon
are approved by President Wilson and
General CarranZa the present negoti-
ations practically will be concluded
although the formality of another con
ference Will be gone through either
tomorrow night or Saturday
II is probable that no American
troop movements will be begun untii
the formal signing OF an agreement
by the two governments. or at least
until General Carranza has signified
his appreciation Of the stipulated con
ditiOns.
After that the Mexican and American
troops are expected TO begin al once
