CHANCES FAVOR VILLA
IN HIS FLIGHT SOUTH
Continued from Page ~

partment today authorized the pur
chase Of los moro motor trucks and
two gasoline tanks for the Villa OK
petition. These will be formed into
companies of 81 cars each to maintain
the greatly heightened lines of COM
lnuncation with General Pershing.
A dispatch today to the war de-
partment from General Isunston def
nitcly located Colonel Dodd and pre-
sumably the Seventh cavalry on Mon
Gay at Provdencia. The dispatch also
indicated that General Pershing had
gone far south, toward the fighting
'front.' near Guerrero. a message from
General Pershin2 to General Funston,
GATED April 4 was as follows:
"Mct Colonel Dodd yesterday at
irovidcncia. and got details of fight
with Villa bandits on March 30 His
exceptional march with the Seventh
cavalry to reach VILLAS camp and
work done by that command deserves
highest praise.
General Funston sent no further de-
tails today of the latest engagement
OF The American troops with a band
Of the Villa forces near .Asnas Cali
cnteS.
The order fer more motor trucks is
due 10 a growing conviction that the
Mexican railways may be of only sup
Elementary service for the present, at
least, and that the army will have
to rely principally on the overland
motor line from Columbus. The Next
can Northwestern railway in its pres
ent condition is running only one
train week. and lack Of rolling stock
is another factor. With tracks torn
un and many bridges ont, necessary
rcoaire to make the railroad material
" serviccabc may take too long
Meanwhile. however. the state depart
ment is continuing its negotiations
with General Carranza to get use OF
the railways.
