Newton D. Baker, who became Sec
rotary of war today, conferred over the
situation with President Wilson to-
night Three hours later Mr.. Baker
said no orders had been sent for the
recall of American soldiers. A brief
report reached the war department
during the day telling of the raid. and
afterward General Funston relayed a
despatch from Brigadier General Per-
shing, telling of a telephone report
from Colonel Slocum announcing that
five troops had been sent across the
border with instructions not to go
more than two miles.
Telegram from Gen. Funston.
Tonight General Funston sent this
telegram to General Scott:

der is newspaper reports. Report from

WAY TO GAIN FLESH
Conductor Tells How He Gained
Flesh and Strength.

So many cases like the following
are continually coming to our atten-
ton we want everyone in Norwich to
know that our offer still holds good
to return money in every case where
Vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron
tonic, fails to create strength and
build up weak, run down, nervous,
oVerworked men and women.
Il am a conductor on the Scranton
Ry.. and became rundown and tired
out, lost my appetite, flesh and
strength, so I had to lose a good deal
of time from my work. A friend told
me to try Vinol. I did so and rapidly
regained health and strength, and yes
terday I was weighed and it showed
I had. gained 26 pounds since taking
Vinol l cannot say enough in praise
of Vinol, for what it has done for me- -
G. B. Sorber, 1913 Vine ST, Scranton,
Pa.
About every other day we are pub
fishing letters like this in Norwich
newspapers about Vinol. They are
guaranteed to be truthful and gen.
uine, and show the good Vinol is doing
all over the country.

miles south of the border against a
much larger force of bandits were
heard with anxious interest in official
circles. Five troops Of cavalry crossed
the border early in the day. At late
hour tonight it was not known official
ly just where they were or what &C
count they had given Of themselves.
No Invasion of Mexico.
While no formal word of the policy
of the administration was given out,
it was reliably stated that the army
would be given free rein to catch the
bandits If possible. 1t was not con-
sidered in administration circles that
Colonel SIocum's act in any sense
constituted an invasion of Mexico, a
policy which the administration has
opposed in the past and will continue
to oppose.
The state department at first had
planned to ask permission of the Car
rama government to send troops across
the border in pursuit of the outlaw
band. Then came official word that
the cavalry already had crossed. Later
Mr.. Arredondo called upon Secretary
Lansing, expressed regret for the Villa
raid, and was informed of the attitude
of the United States.
Mr.. Arredondo said he would COM
municate with General Carranza i'm
mediately.
In expressing a hope that the Car
rama government would not object tc
the crossing of the troops, the state
department was said to realize thai
there might be objections, and 1t was
fully prepared to meet them should
they arise.

that he at least seems to believe the
Carranza government might not object

troops were simply hunting down ban.

STORY OF VILLAS RAID
ON UNITED STATES TERRITORY
With an Account by an American
Woman Prisoner of His Previous
Movements.

Columbus, N. NJ, March s.-Fran-
cisco Villa, outlaw Mexican bandit.
raidde United States territory today.
With 500 men he attacked Columbus,
killed at least 16 Americans and fired
many buildings before he was driven
back across the international border.
AT least 250 troopers of the Thir-
teenth United States cavalry followed
the Villa band into Mexico. Reports
to Colonel H. J. Slocun, commanding
United States troops at this point, late
today stated that Villa had made a
stand five miles south of the border,
where spirited fighting ensued In
was killed and Captain George Will
iams, adjutant of the Thirteenth cav
airy, was wounded.
The small detachment of troopers
under Major Frank TOmpkins and e.
mer Lindsey, fighting dismounted,
made determined stand against the
renewed attack and at last reports
were holding them.
Raid Costly to Bandits.
The raid on American territory
proved costly to the bandit chieftain.
The bodies of Is bandits, including
Pablo Lopez, second in command, had
been gathered and burned before noon
and troopers reported an undetermined
number of dead still lying in the
brush.
Led to the attack under the slogan
Death to the Americans" Villas fol-
lowers fought with desperation. Just
before dawn they crept along bitches
skirting the United States cavalry
camp and rushed the sleeping town,
firing heavily.
Quick Response of American Troops.
The first volley brought American
troopers into almost instant action.
While a portion of the raiders en-
gagged the cavalrymen, others began
applying the torch and shooting Amer
lean civilians who ventered from the
buildings Lights in homes and public
buildings Immediately became targets
for snipers posted at Villas direction
Other bandits, creeping close to Amer
lean homes, enticed a number of civil
ians into the open with English spoken
invitations. A number of fatalities are
attributed to this ruse, Stores were
| looted, oil was poured upon frame
| structures and the match applied by
| still other bandits. The postoffice was
| raided and furniture smashed, but the
! hooters secured only one small regis
| tered package.
