agreement for the use of the railroad.
an order was dispatched to General
Funston late last night TO tender sup
plies for shipment.
Once the rail supply line is in opera
ton officials said today that unless the
motor tucrk service now in operation
is needed as a supplementary service it
could be dispensed with.
While official military news was lack
ing, officials viewed with satisfaction
press reports saying the American cav
airy were close upon Villa and his
bandits.
The arrival OF the third squadron Of
the Third cavalry at Fort Ringgold,
Tex, was reported in war department
dispatches today from General Funston,
The detachment was sent to that point
to strengthen the border patrol in Ghat
vicinity.
Navy department advices from Mexico
reported conditions on both coasts quiet
and generally satisfactory.
Advices on the nature and extent OF
the revolutionary movement said to be
led by Felix Diaz in southern Mexicc
continue TO conflict as to facts. Diplo-
matte dispatches today from European
legations i'm the Mexican capital said
the movement. led by DiaZ himself, was
assuming formidable proportions and
was distinctively anti-American.
On the other hand, government inves-
tigators have reported they have good
reason TO believe Felix Diaz is not in
Mexico at all, but hiding in the United
States, probably in New Orleans.

Funston Silent Regarding
Use of Mexican Railway
(By Associated Presa.1

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, March 30
Washington has imposed strict secrecy
on General Funston regarding plans for
using the Mexican Northwestern rail-
roao under conditions imposed by the
Mexican defacto government He would
not say today whether the immediate
use of the line would be ordered.
General Funston received a code mes
sage from Washington last night relat-
ing to the railroad question. 1t is be-
lieved to have contained Instructions for
use of the Northwestern under the agree
ment with Carranza and orders that sup
plies be rendered for shipment from FL
Paso to Casas Grandes. He declined
to comment on the text of the massage
or to say what action is contemplated
or has been taken.
Hope was expressed in military circles
that further negotiations between the
state department and Carranza might
result in the Mexican government max
ing certain concessions by which the
shipping problem will be made easier.
For one thing. the army desires authori-
" to place guards over supplies in
transit even If the goods must move
as commercial freight.
Because of the feeling that the rail-
road will not solve the transportation
problem under conditions imposed for
its use, the operation of motor trucks
between Columbus and the field will be
continued for the present, according to
information secured here.

DEMOCRATS WOULD EXTEND
PRESENT DUTY ON SUGAR

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Reopen
ing of the fight in the house over the
repeal of the free sugar clause of the
tariff was forecast today, as a result OF
the action of the senate Democratic eau
Gus last night in voting 23 to to
substitute for the house repeal resolu-
ton, a resolution extending the present
duty of cent a pound until 1920. The
struggle is expected to come when the
senate proposal which was recommend
ed by Democrats of the senate finance
committee, is returned to the house for
concurrence.
Louisiana senators lead the opposi-
ton to the substitute. declaring that
a four-year extension was no assurance
to sugar growers and producers of that
state and that 1t would fail to restore
activity to it's sugar industry.
