changed his plans and intended
making a stand against the Ameri-
can punitive expedition at Ojitos

Tense if Villa really intends to risk
an open engagement with the Ameri-
can troops and does not intend to
use guerilla tactics.
All night long sensational reports
came into this city from various
points along the border, but nearly
all lacked confirmation. The most
definite came from Naco, Ariz For
some days reports have reached here
from the border, near Naco, of heavy
movements of Carranaa troops. un-
der General Gales. Early today it
was asserted that a considerable
number of these troops were showing
increasing hostility towards Americans
and might even espouse the cause of
Villa. The United States military au-
thorities were sufficiently aroused by
these stories to rush reinforcements to
the garrison at Naco
The frontier country between here
and Columbus is showing unmistak-
able signs of nervous strain that has
been increasing in tension since the
| Columbus raid. The scattered ham
lets which mark this sectio, con
sisting generally Of half dozen
houses occupied by railroad foremen
and section hands have sent re-
quests to the military officials for
protection
Stories Of the activities Of villa
agents have poured into Fort Bliss
and many have been received by
the civil authorities Several arrests
already have been made and others
are expected to follow One such
story is to the effect that the Villa
sympathizers are using dogs TO send
messages and information across the
border. The man VINO brought this
story is an American living on the
border, close to This city.
He said he had seen one dog with
a roll of papers tied around its neck,
running across the border. He fired
several bullets at the animal, but
failed to hit it,
In the meantime trains loaded
with all kinds Of military supplies
continue to arrive here or pass
though or their way to other points
on the international line. Among the
equipment brought in was a train
load Of motor trucks which are to
be tried as transports in the sandy
wastes Of the Chihuahua deserts.
Keen interest is being shown here
in the arrival Of the aeropIane
squadron, which is reported to be on
its way from San Antonio and is OK
The twenty.third infantry, which
was ordered from Galveston, is also
expected here tomorrow
The question as to where the bor-
der will be crossed first, and when,
remains matter Of pure speculation
in the absence Of any official an
nouncements, but there are numerous
signs that the start will not be long
delayed
