stopping now is believed to mean that the concentration of supplies at Co., lumbus has been practically com- pleted
 Owing to the censorship, the little definite news that reached here from Columbus was brought by passengers. They reported that while military ac- tivities are going on at feverish speed the indications are that several days must elapse before the main punitive force starts. It is believed, however, that some advance scouting parties may cross the border within the next "A hours.
 No Movies Allowed.
 Motion picture men who hurried out of here early today, believing that the crossing was about to be effected, returned here disappointed. They re- ported that General Pershing had issued positive orders that no pictures shall be taken.
 "I hope that We shall take Villa soon with the help of the United States" said Gen. Gabriel Gavira to- night, commanding the Carranza for ces at Juarez. Gutierraz says he has 15,000 men closing in upon the bandit, who was last reported at Alamo, some miles directly south of Galeana.

SOLDIERS ANXIOUS
 AND EAGER FOR WAR"
Nelson, Veterinarian IL" Troop 18th Cavalry, U. S. Army, Stationed Columbus, N. M., Writes Brother.

IlOiH oHellOn NelSOn, or IeXafkana, and comes from his brother, Milton Nelson, who is with "L" Troop, 18th Cavalry, U. S. Army, stationed at Columbus, N. M:
 Columbus, N. M., 3-9-16. IS. Nelson,
 All State Line Ave,
 TeXarkana, Texas. Dear Brother:
 By the time this reaches you you will have read in the papers about Villas raid on Columbus this morn- ing at 4;30 o'clock.
 He slipped in on us with about 200O of his bandits catching us sleeping with only few of the troops here, the balance of the regiment out on various duties away from the post but we gave him warm reception with what few men we had.
 After the battle we had five killed and six wounded and 198 dead Mexi- cans and wounded who died shortly after and several wounded prisoners. Believe me, we had some fireworks for awhile, but they could not stand the pressure and their pipe-dream of how they would murder every one and rob the bank ended in their com plete rout, running them eight miles over the border.
 "K" Troop lost 25 horses killed, stolen or strayed, "L" Troop lost Il horses, "G" Troop lost Il horses and the band lost 25 horses.
 Of course we did not get "Pancho" but we got five or six of his generals, One of whom was Gen. Pablo Lopez, the main gun of the outfit stationed at Palomas, part of which were on outpost just to the right of the gate under Major Morales. You remember we went down and gave them the once over when you were here in October.
 They burned the Commercial Hotel where you stayed and killed Mir. Ritchie, the proprietor, who was sick in bed at the time, pulling him away from his wife and shot him within three feet of them, and tore the clothes off his youngest daughter, but the women folks made their getaway out the back door.
 I am writing this with 300 rounds of rifle and 100 rounds of pistol ammunition on and am expecting call any minute so will have to cut out the details. Every one eager to get at them as we have been here for nearly three years and very little ex- citement and We will make them pay dear for their raid.
 Possibly some of my friends around that section would like to have the news from one of the boys on the ground, so if the papers would care to publish the letter give it to them.
 My time is up on the 2Sth of this month. Tell mamma l am all right and happy. Am enclosing letter for her but it may be some time before you hear from me again, as don't know how this thing will terminate. That is, we will be the first over the line when the order comes.
 Give my love to the family,
 Your brother,
 MILTON NELSON.
 (Happy Jack
 Milton Nelson was born in this city and lived here number of years. He was the son of Mir. and Mrs. Guy Nel- son, the family having moved to Tex arkana after Mir Nelson's death. He is the nephew of Miss Annie Willing ham. now resident of Prescott and enlisted in the army March 2Sth, 1913.

CARRANZA HOPES TO
 CAPTURE BANDITS
Advance Force Expected to Move Into Mexican Territory Within Few HOurs-Strict Censorship is on.

Fl Paso, March 14.-Through the censorship which has been established by General Funston, sufficient infor- nation leaked through today to con- firm the belief that the advance guard of the first expeditionary force may start in pursuit of Villa in a time to be measured by hours. The main force may not start for two or three days.
 Reports came from Mexican sourc- es today that Villa has been sur rounded by Carranza troops. Car ranza apparently is making strenuous efforts to anticipate Americans. From several sources it was reported he has concentrated more than 10000 troops at points about Casas Grandes in Chihuahua, where Villa is believed to be.
 All Seems Ready.
 The officers of the Tenth Cavalry left here today for Columbus soon after it was learned that the passage of transport trains between here and Columbus had ceased. They were practically the last of the corps off cers who were stationed here. The movement of transport trains had never ceased night or day since the news of the Columbus raid. Their
