From Two Sides

Ell Paso, Tex, Dec. 2l.--Five
Americans and one other foreigner
who arrived here early today from
Parral by way Of Torreon reported
that Torreon was about to be at
tackled by Villa forces.
The refugees said Villa was at
Jimenez when they left Torreon three
days ago. A large force of Villa
troops was expected to approach
Torreon from the south at the same
time Villa moved on Torreon from
the north.
The Americans in the party in
cluded DR.. Thomas Flannaghan, Ja-
cob Myer, Adam Schaeffer, w. G.
Palmer, and Julio Sinner, Swiss citi-
zen, also came to the border with the
party. They left Parral ten days ago.
They said everyone in rorreon was
expecting an attack by Villa forces
Yesterday or today and many refu-
gees were leaving for the border. All
Of the Americans who were in Parral
at the time Villa occupied the town
on November 5 have now been &C
counted for, four having come to the
border by way of Culiacan, Sinaloa.
Edgar Koch, acting German vice
consul at Parral, also accompanied
the Americans to the border. He
was robbed of $4,000 worth Of silver

NOTE FROM WILSON
SURPRISES BRITONS
It's Sudden and Unexpected Re-
ceipt Is Puzzle to Govern
ment Officials.
WILL BE GIVEN OUT TODAY

London, Dec. 2l.--ln government
circles official silence is observed re-
garding President Wilson's note sug-
gesting an exchange Of views among
the belligerents which will be given
out for publication in Friday morn
ing's newspapers. 1t is explained that
this delay in publication is due in part
to the absolute surprise caused by the
receipt OF the note, which was alto
gether unexpected, and in part to a
desire to admit of its simultaneous
publication in all the entente allied
countries.
While it cannot be said that the
note was received with anything re-
sembling feeling Of resentment, the
Associated Press is enabled to say
that its sudden and unexpected re-
ceipt puzzled officialdom, which was
unprepared for it so close upon the
heels of the German peace proposals.
1t is therefore believed the note will
not interefr with h plans of he
allies for sending a joint reply to the
German proposals which probably
will be done before Christmas.
1t is understood that opinion in Of
fetal circles is that the speeches de-
livered within the last fortnight by
the spokesman of the allied govern
ments, the latest by Premier Lloyd
George, form the most effective re-
plies to the proposals OF Chancellor
won Bethmann-Hollweg and really
state the position OF all the allies re-
garding any peace movement from
any quarter.

REED TRYING FOR
SYRACUSE GAME
Manager of Nebraska Athletics
Would Change Notre

AMES AFTER GAME, TOO

Lincoln, Dec. 2l-Guy +. Reed,
University of Nebraska athletic man
ager, left tonight for Chicago, where
he expects tomorrow to meet Coach
Harper of Notre Dame and will en-
deavor to persuade the Indiana coach
to change the date of next seasons
game from Thanksgiving day to an
earlier date, so that Nebraska may
accept the proposal of Syracuse uni
versity for a battle with the New
York eleven on the closing day of the

If Notre Dame is insistent on the
date heretofore agreed upon, the be-
lief here is that an agreement with
Syracuse for next year will have 10
be abandoned.

anxious to be on the Nebraska sched-

Smith could finance some of the stock

of the popular business ventures, and
