TWO ARMY BASES.
Villa Hunk Now Covers Wide Range Of
Territory. .,

Ea Paso, April 4.-With Francisco
Villa stiu in fight and his whereabouts
apparently unknown to his pursuers,
the campaign Of the United States
army now securing northern Chihua-
hua, Mexico, for the bandit and his fol-
lowers, entered today upon what may
be considered as a second and broader
phase. New troops have been ordered
to depart from the military base at Co
1unibus into Mexico to protect the
lengthening line of communication.
villa has been reported at many
points within the broad zone that
reaches from the Rayon country to the
Benito Juarez district. The last re-
port was that Villa was at Satavo and
heading for Parral, but this could not
be confirmed The difficulties of the
pursuit have multiplied because Of the
misleading Information given by Mexi-
cans to the Americans. Men here be-
slieve that as villa moves southwark
with his 1rai well covered for the
time at least, 1t will be necessary to
establish two army bases and strongly
guard the line Of communication. To
t;l Il; Ills Is large reinforce;ncnts will be
needed. Meanwhile the use by the
American army of the Mexican rail-
road for the transportation OF supplies
becomes more important Already the
question has arisen how TAR the pur-
suit Of villa Will proceed and 1t is be-
slieved here that the developments
within the next week or ten days will
bear on the answer.

IF Germany judges our defensive
