Cabinet Members Believe the Alarm

uation Part of General Plot.

Washington, March 25.-What are
regarded as evidences of activity of
powerful influences to force interven-
ton in Mexico through the spreading
of alarmist reports, were discussed at

suited in the preparation Of formal
statement on the subject by Secretary
Lansing which probably will be made
public tomorrow Administration Off
Gals believe that definite effort IS
being made to bring about war be-
tween the United States and Mexico.
One cabinet member expressed the
opinion, following yesterdays meet

said. to stir up public opinion in Mex
ico and the United States to the point
where a general clash between the two
nations would be inevitable.

REPORT VILLAS

Message from Gen. Pershing
lntimates His Forces May

BATTLE EXPECTED At Ell OzO
9eports From Mexican Sources Say
Bandits Were Forced to Make
a Stand There.

San Antonio, Tex, March 25.-Gen-
eral Pershing's report to General Fun
ston that two columns of his expedi-
tionary force were in the vicinity of
Namiquipa, 120 miles southeast of
Casas Grandes, and repeated reports
from Mexican sources that Villa, with
comparatively small force, had been
forced to a stand at FL Oso, near
there, caused officers here to expect
news of a battle at any time. General
Funston believed it probable that an
engagement might already have oc-
Cured.
General Pershing referred today for
the first time since last Monday to
his operations south of Casas Grandes,
but his report contained little informa-
ton and none concerning any encoun-
ter between Villa and American sol
diers or troops of the de facto govern
ment.
Surrounded at FL Oso.
He said Villa had last been reported
at Namiquipa His report was dated
today, reached Columbus by wireless
and was transmitted by telegraph to
Fort Sam Houston. 1t was taken by
army officers here to indicate that
either no engagement was fought yes
terday with Villa or that General
Pershing had not learned of it.
Consul BeItran of the Mexican gov
eminent received a message late to-
day from Consul Garcia at FL PasO,
saying confirmation had been received
of the report that Villa had been de-
N hn
trudes Canyon by the American and
Mexican forces and that he had fled
to FL Oso, five miles from Nami-
quipa, where he was surrounded. The
consul added that one of the Ameri-
can officers with the expeditiOnary
| forces had reported to General Perish
| ing that they would attack Villa to-
day.
American Base at FL Vale.
The American troops near Mani
| quipa moved south and east from
Casas Grandes over the trail that
passes through FL Vale and Cruces
Ell Vale, fifty-five miles from Casas
Grande, was selected by General
Pershing as temporary base, he said
in his report to General Funston. The
fact that he mentioned two columns
as having reached points near Nami-
quipa caused it to be believed here
that he had called back the third col
umn dispatched from Casas Grandes
| the first of the week from the trail
leading to Carmen, and sent it south
from Galeana to join the Seventh cay
airy on its way south through E
| Vale.
Weather Against the Army.
Columbus, n. NJ, March 25.-SnoW
and sIeet following rapidly on the
heels of a nine-day exhausting march
under a whitening desert sun today
brought new difficulties to the Ameri
can troops in the Casas Grandes dis
trict, according to reports received to
night from General Pershing- None

weather, their orders being to mini
mize their baggage as far as possible
that the utmost speed might be made
Consequently the average soldier car

tanning alcohol must be so highly

the tax on alcohlllc beverages.
Tanlac is made in absolute con-
formlty with this law. 1t is exempt
from this tax.
Now further let me saw that the

empts preparations made in conform
ity with the government regulations,
as any state law must. II you will
give this point Just a moments

Under these circumstances we can
not but feel we have suffered an in
justice and that you have been in

when there is no legal or moral cause
for such action.

statement very readily and for that
reason have asked our state repre-
