The first information received in this

an Associated Press dispatch to The

Washington, Dec. 19.-The Mime.
sofa brigade headquarters and the
Minnesota Second infantry, now sta.
toned on the border, have been or.
dered home, along with about 10000
national guard troops from other
states. The movement will be com.
pleted by Jan. 5, or as soon as trans.
portation facilities can be provided.
When completed the movement w;

The force of $4,000 is the minimum
strength which the war department
estimates it will be necessary to keep
there, in addition to the regulars, for
the protection of border life and prop.
erty. The only hope the $4,000 re.
naming troops have OF returning
home is a change in the administra.

withdrawal of General Pershing's
forces from Mexico. Army officers
here agree that when Pershing is
withdrawn his men will be used as q
