stroyed by fire early this morning,
about six hours after being vacated

An Investigation was started imme-
diately by caretakers left in charge.
Monterey was the Spanish and Mexican
capital Of California. and the preside
occupies the site of the ancient military
headquarters. The post was an uncom-
pleted one. described by miiitry authori-
ties as a sort OF cantonment, with old
wooden barracks sufficient 20 acoommo-
date a regiment. These arc OF the type
common at the preside Of San Francisco.
where several persons. including the wife
and three daughters of Brigadier General
John j. Pershing were burned to death.
The monetary loss. II was said. IL OF
small moment.
The headquarters safe and the con-
tents Of the postoffice were saved. All

War Department quiet.
While General Funston was proceeding
with the arrangements to pursue the ban
dts and end their activities once and for
all. the War department was unusually
quiet today. Scores of kilograms came
from the border dealing with troop move
ments. supply lines and other countless
details OF military operations: but no
word that the forces had gone into Mex
leo. The dispatches have not yet dis
closed an outline OF General Funston's
plans nor even the fact. reported in press
dispatches from the border. that Brig
adler General Pershing had been assigned
TO lead the chase.
The whole matter is in General Fun
ston's hands. He Is planning carefully
his moves on the huge chess-board Of
northern Mexico. where ne is to match
wits with villa. His elaboration. Off
GERS here say. is calculated to make GER
tain the result before the first shot IL
fired.
The War department r. interested only
In these military movements. Discussion
OF the ultimate possibilities or probabii-
ties OF the stand taken by the Washing
ton administration or by General Car
rama is only a side issue. an academic
argument II has been discussed by the
army only in connection with the possi-
bility that a Carranza force might be left
In the rear Of the advancing columns
without a definite understanding of what
its attitude might be.
Taking No Chances.
Officers familiar with General Fun
ston's reports OF his troop dispositions
said he was taking no chances in this
connection.
The belief that American troopers al
ready were across tho line to watch at
| least one side OF the region IN which
villa is supposed to be operating, gained
strength tonight in unofficial circles
Press reports from the border tended to
bear out This view. but so far as Is known
the War department was without con-
| firmation. Border reports also indicated
the possible mobilization places Of sew
eral columns. but officers declined to
discuss these, holding rigidly TO the policy
announced by Secretary Baker of giving
General Funston every opportunity to ex-
ecute a surprise attack.
Reports from tho three regiments of
cavalry ordered TO join Funston's border
army showed satisfactory speed was be-
ing made In getting the troops in action.
Half OF the command and all OF another
were rolling toward the border before
shutdown tonight. eighteen hours after
they received marching orders. The rest
will be in motion tomorrow morning.
1t was learned tonight that every
agency of the government that might
furnish General Funston with informa-
ton as to conditions in Mexico has
been called upon to do it's share. Reports
reaching any department that might
throw light on Villas whereabouts are
being forwarded promptly.
