General Funston to be in Command OF
Expedition to Capture Villa, But
viii Not Lead American
Troops in Person.

Washington.-Gen Funston, un,
der orders from President Wilson to
hunt down Villas bandit army in
northern Mexico, is moving his troops
behind veil of rigid secrecy.
War department officials, who had
given the border commander free
hand in working out details of the ex-
petition, made it clear that they re-
garded it imperative to success that
all information which might aid Villa
in eluding the American forces
must be guarded scrupulously.
Instructed by the war department
at washington that he was not to per-
sonally command the troops that will
search for Francisco Villa, Major
General Funston, the commander of
the southern department, has arranged
details of the expedition and planned
for the safeguarding of the entire
Mexican border.
A close censorship has been estab-
lished, however, on proceedings. All
announcements are made by General
Funston himself.
General Funston has announced.
however, that while he will not lead
the troops in person, that an officer
subordinate to him will lead the men
against Villa, and that he has in
structions to trail the bandit leader
to his lair, and capture him, dead or
alive.
General John Pershing will lead the
American troops in the pursuit of the
attackers of Columbus.
Both Generals Funston and Per-
shing are known in the army as get
ters." Directing their operations
from Washington is Major General
Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff, whose
reputation along the same lines had
been established before either Fun
ston or Pershing-they are both
young generals-had ever worn an
officers uniform.
Funston's most spectacular exploit
was his capture of Aguinaldo in 1899
in the Philippines. Here he used the
tribal hatred of the Macabebees for
the Tagalogs to consummate his mis-
sion. Placing himself in the hands
OF Macabebee soldiers, together with
number of picked American officers
and men, he was taken into Aguinal-
dos secret mountain camp as a pris-
oner. and there surprised and over
powered Aguinaldo and his staff, TAX
ing them prisoners to Manila.
1t was Funstons knowledge of the
peculiar country that won his success
by which he was awarded his first
star. Admirers of Funston believe
That 1t will be by this knowledge of
the Mexican treacherous nature that
Villa will be brought in, rather than
by use of overwhelming forces.
In carrying out such a plan no ADLER
lieutenant could be found in the army
than John ]. Pershing, who used the
same tactics in so far as they were APP
pllcable in the subiugation of the
head-hunting Moros in the wild
island of Mindanao in the Philip
pines. It was Pershings ability to
outguess the cunning Moros that fin
ally won for him their respect and CO.
operation, and cleaned up Mindanao,
making of it the white mans coun-
try of the Philippines.

 WASHINGTON, July 3.-Despitc the mtimations received from Mexico City in- dicating that the reply of General Car ranza was prepared and on the way to Washington the long expected answer has evidently not left the Mexican capi- tai, according to statements made by the representatives of several South Am ercan states today.
 The Later-American representatives ad- mitted yesterday that the pressure which their associates in Mexico City exerted is responsible for Carranza's S delay in an swering President Wilson's ultimatum. The Brazilian representative declared that the efforts of the Latin American coun- tries are probably responsible for the fact that the United States and Mex- co are not actually in the throes of war at the present time.
