eaSiness felt in Washington over the anti.
American feeling in Mexico and the admis.
sion of lack of cooperation by Carranzistas
is reflected along the border In prepara-
tons being made to resist an attack on
American territory
Advices from Consuls in towns along the
line of General Pershings communications
and from travellers coming from Mexico are
to the effect that the de facto forces are
now moving toward the section occupied by
United States troops, indicating the possi
bility of an attack.
Apprehension also is felt due to the re.
newed raids in the Laredo region Army
officers here expressed conviction that Luis
De La Rosa, the bandit, had obtained a
promise of support from Carranza in any
attack he might make upon Americans.
Every effort is being made by General
Funston so TO police the border to pre-
vent success of any plan formulated by
De la Rosa.
Word has been received, from Chihuahua
that a Villa cache, containing twenty-five
million rounds of rifle ammunition was dis
covered in cave in northern Durango
''If Villa was able to collect that many
cartridges under disadvantages, how much
more has the Carranza forces?" said an
army officer.

of ammunition, as they received many very

admiration of those dull years through
which officers who had not great deal to

they were assigned

dinary possibilities because gentlemen no

the part the United States is to play has
this distinction in it-that it is to be in

mile here is a double gain. II drives the
Austrians back and at the same time makes
the positions of the Germans on the line
toward Riga less tenable.
In the south the armies of the Czar are
knocking at the gates OF Czernowtz and the
rich country beyond. Unofficial reports are
that, Czernowitz has already been taken.
This has not been confirmed
The only point on the long line of nearly
$50 miles where the Russian arms have
not been uniformly successful was near Buc-
zacs, on the Strypa River. There the Aus
trians massed their forces and were able to
hold the Russian forces temporarily But
this has had no material effect upon the
general advance. The Russian forces are
steadily nearing their three goals--Kovel
Lemberg and Czernowitz.
