CAVALRY TROOP
At BOCA GRANDEs
IS WITHDRAWN
Building Of New Road South
of Border Renders 1t Neces-
sary to Maintain Number of
Troops at That Point,

Columbus, N. M, April ga troop
of cavalry arrived here today, having
been withdrawn from Boca Grandes,
twenty-five miles south of the border,
and on the old motor trail used by
trucks for the front. The new road,
which is said to be better and shorter,
cuts off the American camps at Boca
Grandes and Espia, necessitating few
er troops to guard the line OF COM
munications in consequence.
Heavy traffic over the old road,
leading west along the boundary and
thence south through Boca Grandes
and Espia to Ascensions, seventy miles
from the frontier has so rutted II that
truck trains are now being routed di-
rectly south from Columbus to Las
Palomas and thence southwest to AS
cension.
Official reports upon the engage
mont at Temachic, April %. in which
Col George A. Dodd's command rout-
ed 260 Villistas with heavy Mexican
losses, but with only two American
casualties failed to add materially to
press reports. Army officers here
generally assume that the band en-
countered was that which has been
reported lurking in the vicinity of
Guerrero since the battle there sew
eral weeks ago. The mayor of Guer-
rero, who apparently is friendly to the
Americans, reported to military au-
thorites recently that the Villistas
menaced the safety of his people and
it is assumed here that Colonel Dodd
was dispatched to disperse them.
Pcrshing's Command Inactive.
All reports reaching here today in
dicated that beyond q few local move
ments, necessary for the preservation
Of the American line, General Per-
shings command remains inactive
and concentrated in the main about
Namiquipa and Colonia Dublan. The
report of Colonel Dodd's recent en-
gagement was followed by numbers OF
conflicting rumors here of important
movements but every possible investl-
cation here tended to support none OF
them. military men apparently feeling
that the future policy of the eXpedi-
ton depends entirely upon the out
come of the conference between GEN
erals Funston, Scott and Obregon at
the border.
Captain Willis, Of the army aero
corps, who was injured in the fall OF
an aeroplane in the Sierra Madres
several days ago. left today for San
Antonio TO recuperate.

years old, who was stopping
with his brother-in-law, j. c..
Lawrence, walked across the
street to the residence of Daniel
Mann, an Alexandria merchant,
and demanded entrance. The

shot and fatally wounded the
child, passed on into the room
where Mrs. Mann was lying in
bed, shot and killed her and then
swallowed a fatal dose of carbol-

David was evidently insane, as
he is said to have been a stran-
ger to the Mann family; there

did.
