U. }. MARKET NEWS
 SERVICE BEGIN
Field Men of U. s. Department Agriculture Distributing In- formation in Regard to Ship ments of Perishable Crops.

Washington, D. C., March 25.- Field men of the Office of Markets and Rural Organization have left Washington to inaugurate the De- partment of Agriculture's Market News Service for perishable crops this year. Branch offices have been estab- lished in New York, Boston, Phila- delphia, Buffalo, Pittsburgh, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis and Kansas City, to collect and distribute infor- nation in regard to marketing con- ditions. Other men are stationed ;r the producing sections in Florida, Louisiana and Texas, wher onions, to- matoes and strawberries are already being shipped in carload lots to the big markets.
 By collecting in this way informa- tion concerning conditions in produc- ing districts and marketing centers, the Market News Service of the De- partment of Agriculture is designed to aid both shippers of and dealers in perishable crops. The information collected is sent out free by telegraph to all those who are sufficiently inter- ested to pay the telegraph charges and by mail to those who do not care to incur this expense, but have good reason for wishing the reports. Each of the field men in the marketing and producing centers acts as distributor of this information and, in addition, it is sent out direct from Washington. The first reports for this season are to be sent out on Monday, March 27 These will deal with carload ship ments, receipts and general conditions for the onion, tomato, and strawberry crops Other crops will follow as the season advances, the service being de- signed to include a total of l6 alto gether. In the opinion of marketing specialists this work. which was begun last year, has already demonstrated its value in preventing the glutting of markets, in securing more profitable distribution for perishable crops, and in avoiding delay and waste through unnecessary diversions of carload | shipments en route.

Willard
Moran

New York, March 25.-In Madison Square Garden tonight Jess Willard of Kansas and Frank Moran of Pitts burgh, scheduled to struggle for the heavyweight championship which Will lard won from Jack Johnson in Ha- vana on April 5 of last year, will face the largest gathering of sporting men in the history of this city. Both of the big fighters are trained to per fection-the most perfectly condi- toned athletes ever brought together in ring in New York. Both men are confident of the result, although the betting shows that the public is in- clined to favor the chances of Will lard, who will have the advantage of his opponent in size, height, reach and the confidence that comes of being a champion. Those who are taking the Moran end bank chiefly on the Pitts burgher's ability to deliver knockout punch and the further fact that he Is rated as shiftysa fighter as Willard. Today the most optimistic reports emanate from both training camps. If the. advance dope is to be relied up on the spectators will have the cer- tainty of seeing a lively bout from start to finish.
 The box office reports an enormous sale of seats and Tex Rickard and Sam McCracken, the promoters, ex- pect that all records for attendance will be broken. Seats have been con- structed in the Garden to accommo- date 13,O00 persons. The prices range from $50 for boxes near the ringside to $3 for rear seats. It is believed that the total gate receipts will run between $110,000 and $115,000.
 Willard will receive $40,000 under the signed contracts and bonus of $7,500 and 51 per cent of the moving picture receipts. Moran's share will be $20,000, bonus of S2,500 and 30 per cent of the film receipts.
 Under the New York state laws the contest will be limited to ten rounds and no decision will be given. Des- bite this latter provision it is agreed among the best informed men in sporting circles that Moran would be hailed as the heavyweight champion if he succeeds in knocking Willard

NATIONAL GUARD
 RECEIVES FIRST ORDER
All Small Arms to be Placed in
 serviceable Condition, Cloth
 ;ro Requirements, M e S s Chests. Etc.-Report April 10.

1;tt,a Rock. March 25.-"1n order .o ;rsure that all organizations are .onored to take the field at short rotice it is directed that the following ;n.tructions be carried out with the least delay practicable relative to equipment and arms"
 This is the somewhat ominous first soction of an official memorandum transmitted last night by Adjt. Gen. How'd England of the Arkansas Ma t;onal Guard. to all officers and com nany commanders. It does not mean q call to arms, but it is in line with the policy of preparedness for any eventuality in the Mexican trouble.
 All small arms are to be placed in seryiceable condition, as well as all clothing, accoutrements, messchests, etc Company commanders are in- Qtructed to see that these instructions are carried into effect at once, and that report be made upon them in no case later than April 10.
 One of the most interesting fea- lures of the military equipment as- sembled at the headquarters of the Guard is about a peck of aluminium disks about the size of a silver dollar, each perforated with n hole through which a string may be passed. These are identification checks, and are worn about the necks of all soldiers who go into battle. Each disk is en- graved with the name of the wearer, so that he may be identified should he fall in battle.

BATTLE IS EXPECT.
 ED AT ANY TIME
Two Columns American Troops Have Moved South and East From Casas Grandes and Are Now at Namiquipa.

San Antonio, March 24.-General Pershing's report to General Funston that two columns of his expeditionary force were in the vicinity of Nami- quipa, 120 miles southeast of Casas Grandes. and repeated reports from Mexican sources that Villa, with a comparative small force, had been forced to stand at Fl Ono near there, caused officers here to expect news at any time of battle.
 General Funston thought it prob able that an engagement might have already occurred. General Pershing referred today for the first time since last Monday, to his operations south of Casas Grandes, but his report con- tained little information, and none Iconcerning any encounter between Villa and American soldiers or troops of the de facto government. He said Villa had last been reported at Nim- quipa. His report was dated today reaching Columbus by wireless, and was transfitted by telegraph to Fort Sam Houston.
 It was taken by army officers to in dicate that either no engagement was fought yesterday with Villa or Gen eral Pershing had not learned of it. Consul Beltram, Carranza consul here, received a message late today from Consul Garcia at Fl Paso, saying con- tirmation had been received of the re- port that Villa had been defeated yes terday in the Santa Gertrudis canyon by the American and Mexican forces, and he had fled to Fl Ono, five miles from Namiquipa, where he was sur rounded. The consul added that one of the American officers had reported to General Pershing they would at tack Villa today.
 The American troops near Naml- quipa moved south and east from Casas Grandes over the trail that passes through Vile and Cruces, Valle, fifty-tive miles from Casas Grandes, was selected by General Pershing as temporary base, he said in his report to General Funston. The fact that he mentioned two columns as having reached points near Naml- , ouipa caused it to be believed here that he had called back the third column dispatched from Casas Gran des, the first of the week, from the 1 trail leading to Carmen, and sent 1t south to Galeana to join the Sev- enth Cavalry on it's way south through Valle.
 That General Pershing is meeting with some difficulty in provisioning his detachment now more than 2Vo miles from the border, was indicated by statement in his report that un- less he could use the Northwestern railway he would need more auto trucks.

out Even if there was no knockout blow delivered the Pittsburgh fighter would probably be looked upon as the king of the heavyweight division if he is fortunate enough to show up dis tinctly as a better battler than the champion.
 It Is regarded as somewhat signifi- cant that the majority of old-time pugilists of note, the ones who know the game from start to finish and who have had an opportunity to size up the two big men in their work of training, are more inclined. to rate Moran's chances on a par with those of Willard than is the general public. These men figure that the champions advantage in size and weight will not count for so much as is generally sup posed. If Moran is the more clever of the two and carries the hardest punch they figure that he will be able to more than hold his own against the huge Kansas cowboy.
