FUNSTON ON THE
LOOKOUT FOR ANY
RAID ON BORDER

SAN ANTONIO. Tex. July T.
Careful attention was paid by General
Funston and his staff today TO every
meagre bit of information coming out
Of Mexico relating 10 renewed actlV-
ity Of organized bandits in the state
of Chihuahua. Uncontirmed reports
supplied some reasons for believing
that they are directed and possibly LED
in person by Francisco Villa.
Carranza' official notification that
the force that destroyed General Ra'
mos force near JimineZ might be NOV
ing northward with the object o. raid
ing the American side Of the river
was borne out to some extent by ln'
formation reaching the intelligence
department of the American army, but
the American sources Of information
also had reports that instead Of NOV,
ing northward the bandits were swing
ing south and west towards Parral.
Advised OF the new developments
officers commanding the border kept
close watch along the international
line while headquarters officers were
prepared 10 send at any time support
ing troops to any point menaced. The
mobilization Of National Guardsmen
dragged little today, due TO the de-
lays in several states where guards
men were not ready TO start south. AS
fast as notification was received that
suardsmen are ready to move General
Funston was prepared to assign them
10 the stations.

Generals of the National Guard. Cen
