STRENGTH
Of REGULAR ARMY
TWENTY THOUSAND MEN TO BE
ADDED TO INFANTRY, CAV
AIRY AND ARTILLERY.
Resolution Would Authorize Recall OF
Troops From Philippines and Com
Wandering Of All Arms and
Munitions Of War.

Washington.-Cong took active
notice of the border situation on
March IL for the first time. The
house passed a joint resolution late
in the day authorizing the recruiting
of the mobile regular army to full
strength. This means the addition of
approximately 10000 fighting men to
the infantry. cavalry and field artil-
lery. The senate is expected to con-
cur and the necessary orders will be
issued Immediately to fill up regi
ments on border duty.
The step was suggested by the army
general staff. 1t is urgently desired
now because Of the weakening of the
border force by the expedition after
Villa, but ever since the patrol of the
border began the army has been great
ly handicapped by the skeleton organ
ization OF regiments, companies, troops
and batteries. The force that occu-
pied Vera Cruz had similar difficulties,
some of the companies there being
less than forty men strong.
Two other resolutions bearing upon
the Mexican situation were intro
duced in congress.
One of these, by Representative
Britten OF Illinois, would authorize
the recall of troops now in the Philip
pines for service in Mexico. The
other, by representative Cary of Wis
consin, would authorize the comman-
deering of all arms and munitions of
war in the country.
While preparations of the Funston
expedition into Mexico were contfn-
ued by the war department, the state
department was advised that Ameri-
cans in interior Mexico we're leaving

ENGLAND TO SHUT
OFF ALL LUXUR|ES
ORDER TO BE ISSUED WHICH
WILL PROHIBIT LARGE NUM-
Der OF ARTICLES.
Find II Necessary to Prohibit Ship
nent Of Bulky Luxuries In Order
to Provide Room on Ships
for Necessities.

London.-A far-reaching order in
council, which will totally prohibit Inn
portation into the United Kingdom OF
a large number of articles which come
under the general heading OF luxuries,
will be issued by the British govern
ment at an early date.
Among the things which will be
placed under" the ban will be automo-
biles for private use, musical instru-
ments, cutlery of all kinds, hardware,
yarns, chinaware, fancy goods and
soaps. The order will apply equally
to all countries, including the British
dominions and colonies.
This forecast of the coming order in
council was given in an interview by
Walter Runciman, president of the
board of trade. Mr.. Runciman ad-
mitted that articles in addition to
those named would be placed on the
list of prohibited imports, but in ad-
vance of the issuance of the order he
declined to say what they are. He
agreed that the decree would have
considerable effect on exports from
the United States, but pointed out that
it applied to all countries alike, and
declared it was absolutely necessary
to limit the shipment of bulky luxur-
les in order to provide room on ships
for necessaries.

San Antonio, Texas.--As a direct
result OF attack on the morning OF
March 8 by Mexican bandits, led by
Francisco Villa. upon the town Of
Columbus, N. NJ. when a score OF
Americans were killed, property de-

General John J. Pershing. at the
head OF 5000 American soldiers. has

General Pershing's report OF his en-
trance into Mexico served to dispel to
a great extent fear that had been en-
tertained In some quarters that resist
ance would be offered by the troops
OF the defacto government. Colonel
Bertani, the commanding officer Of
the Carranza garrison at Palomas on
the south side OF the line, joined Gen
eral Pershing. His force was only
some 400 men, but they we're reported
to have displayed willingness and
even eagerness to join in the chase.
As body the Mexican troops will re.
main under their own commander, but
q number OF them are being employ
ed as scouts by General Pershing.
General Pershing has gone into
Mexico With orders to wipe out villa
and his organization. Unless orders
to the contrary are received from
those higher In authority than Gener-
al Funston, the campaign that was be-
gun Wednesday will continue until
villa is captured or killed. No limits
