tavlLLA BAND NEAR AMADctR.
Surrounded by carranza Force OF 4,ooo
Men, Mostly Cavalry.

Chihuahua City, July 20.-Villa and
his main band are in the vicinity OF
Amador, about thirty miles south OF
the Durango line, according to reports
received from General Matias Ramos,
at General Trevino's headquarters 20
day. The message, which was relayed
from Rosario, General Ramos base,
and sent at Tepehuantes by General
Laveaga, was meager because of the
difficulty Of communication.
General Trevino, however, said that
the government troops have band
which consists Of about 800 men, sur
rounded, and that Villas early capture
is probable. Reports from the garri-
son at Guanaceyi indicate that should
the bandits attempt to push on south,
the garrison at that point is prepared
to reinforce General Ramos, who COM
mands force Of about 1000 men,
largely cavalry
Announcement was also made at the
Comandancia today that Gen. Luis
Caballero. once governor of the state of
Tamulupas and more recently sta
toned at Mexico City, has arrived in
Tampico to assume command of the
fifth division Of the army Of the north
east, relieving General Nafarrate, or
dered to the capital.

Baltimore, July 20.-Prepared to leave

engines and submerging machinery had
been given a final test and were found
to be in good condition.
Screened From Sight by Tugs.
At dawn today a screen of ss and
barees was drawn about the eutsch-
land submarine, indicating that she
would not leave here for some hours at
least. To all appearance she was ready
to go on her voyage to Germany last
night This morning just before she
was hidden from view, it was observed
that she was submerged to about the
same depth as when she came into the
harbor.
Yesterday force of mechanics was
sent on board the boat to help the
crews mechanic overhaul the engines
One of the engines was dismounted and
hurried in an automobile to q local
shop for refinishing.

guarding the submersible since she

Several times in the night strange
launches were seen lowering about the
waters near the submarine and at once
a motor boat containing a representa-
tive of the vessels owners was put out
to ascertain their identity.

WHY EXPENSE is GREATER.
Reginald Meksnna Explains Reaso,
For Increased Expenditures.

For Increased Expenditures.
London, July 20.-Explalning the in
crease in the government rate of ex-
penditure to 100000 pounds daily,
Reginald McKenna, chancellor of the
exchequer, said in the house of COM
mons today that the figures related not
only to war expenses but to total out
going.
The unforeseen and unforeseeable
causes which had raised the rate Of
expenditure added the chancellor, were
mainly the rate at which American Sc
curities have been sold to the govern
ment for the purpose of regulating
American exchange and the rate at
which advances made to allies and
dominions of Great Britain were drawn
upon. The concurrence Of these two
causes has led to the exhaustion Of his
borrowing powers earlier than was ex-
pected.
Lord Robert Cecil, minister Of war
trade, declared in the house of COM
mons today that he did not think there
was any reason to suppose the censor
ship now exercised regarding press
messages to the United States was as
all ligely to interfere with the
continuation Of friendly relations OF
the two countries. The censorship.
added the lord. was established for
military reasons and its abolition or
modification could not be evoked upon
nom military grounds.
A member had advocated abolition
Of the censorship to show Ensland's
confidence in the United states.

Des Moines. July 20.-The Third
Iowa infantry, under command OF Col.
Z. r. Bennett. will entrain some time
today for Brownsville, Tex. says the
statement made today to Brig. Gen.
Hubert A. Allen, commander Of troops
at the Iowa mobilization camp. He said
that enough cars were here and that

for the departure of the first battalion
Of the Third regiment. had been
changed to include the entire regi-
ment. General Allen said:

men that enough tourist sleeperS will
be here to move the entire Third regi-
ment today. l can not say when these
cars will be brought to camp, Eor what
the hour of departure will be. hnt IN.

are that the entire regiment can be
moved within the next twelve or
eighteen hours"
Tents We're struck at camp and as
sembled in such a way as to make
loading matter Of a few hours. 1t is
believed that the men and equipment
will be sent on by Sbattalions as
was planned at the start but that the
battalion trains will follow one an
other much more closely than was
planned in first arrangements.
& y is thought probable that there
may be some delay in moving the rest
of the brigade It was said that tour
ist sleepers are at premium and that
the men may be held here until cars
Of that sort are available and then
shipped out battalion at a time.
Gen. George. Morgan, chief muster
ing officer at the camp, said this aft
ernoon that the Second Iowa infantry
probably win leave here Saturday. The
cavalry, artillery and engineers are tc

1t was said this afternoon that there
probably would be no movement OF
troops before o'clock tonight Twen.
ty-one tourist sleepers will be taken to
the camp about 2:3O today and the
loading of men and equipment is ex-
pected to begin as soon as the heat OF
the day passes.
John II. Rice, in charge Of traffic
arrangements, confirmed the report
that the men will go by today Each
brigade will have train to itself un
der the command of a major, and ar
rangements are being made to have the
mems equipment on the same train on
which the soldiers ride.
Each train will consist of sufficient
box cars to carry the baggage, flat cars
for the wagons, two kitchen cars and
seven tourist sleepers
