Villas Scattered Bands
Are Being Pushed to Wall;
His Men Physical Wrecks
BY .fSSocidfcd Press

Columbus. y. NJ, April 2S.-Villa's
scattered adherents are gradually be-
ing pushed to the wall, according to
unofficial reports here to-day. These
reports said that the remnants of the
Villa army are fleeing for cover. the
morale broken, the men half-starving
and almost physical wrecks.
So far as is known here, only two
bands of any size remain under the
Villa standard, one somewhere on
the Durango-Chihuahu border and
another in the mountains east of Guer-
rero. The rest of the command that
attacked Columbus is said to have scat
tered, singly and in groups of two or
three. some to be captured by General
Pershing's soldiers and others to re-
turn to their homes. There is belief
in military quarters here that some of
these men are attempting to make
their way to a common rendezvous,
but no reports from the front tend to
confirm this theory.
Dodd Closing In On One
OF the two bands in the field it is
known that Colonel George A. Dodd,
with a force of tried cavalrymen, is
close on the heels of the one in the
Guerrero district, which is said to total
about 260 men, under four chiefs. Last
reports placed Colonel Dodd at Minaca,
obtaining supplies. After defeating
the band April 22, 1t is believed here,
he pressed on into the mountain passes
of the continental divide in pursuit.
1t is generally assumed here that it is
only matter of days until he engages
it again, provided he has not done so
already and experienced difficulty in
transmitting a report.
Less is known here of the activities
of the second band, now beyond the
apex of the American dash. 1t is with
this detachment that Villa, guarded by
a hundred of his followers, once the
flower of his army, is supposed to be
