CARRANzA NOTE
WILL NOT STOP
CHASE OF WILL

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, March l3.-Major General
Funston received official reports today showing that his
orders to infantry, cavalry and artillery forces along the
border being rapidly executed The supplies neces,
say for long campaign Mexico under way and
General Funston expressed himself as thoroughly satisfied
with the which the American troops being
mobolzed. Brig Gen. Pershing will command the punitive
expedition.
The delay in ordering the advance into Mexico
explained today due the fact that Gen Funston wishes
to make American border safe from attack while he
pursuing Villa This precaution necessary because of
General Caranzas attitude and the fear that if the
head of Mexico de facto government desirous of aid
ing the Americans he would be unable control his forces
along the border.
Carranza's manifesto declaring no American troops
would be permitted to enter Mexico without reciprocal
privilege granted to the Mexican government received
here today Two constructions placed the docu-
ment. One that the manifesto was potential declara-
ton of the other that it intended for home
SUMPTION and that despite its hints that the present difficult
ties might drag war which the United States can
justify, the first chief will yield to the inevitable.
Whatever Carranza may decide to do his attitude will
affect the determination of the United States to get
Villa" The American troops will cross the border.

AMBULANCE 81 n CORPS
PASSES THROUGH
ON WAY TO TEXAS

I'VE don't know where we're goin'
but we're on our way" remarked one
of sixty youngsters of a company of
the ambulance corps, United States
army, when their train pulled into
Richmond from Columbus, O., Sunday
evening. The boys were in high good
drab uniforms presented nifty ap-
in charge of the company perhaps
could have told the destination of their
command but they didn't. They were
acting under sealed orders.
The privates and non-commissioned
officers admitted that they had a
pretty good "hunch" that they were
enroute to somewhere on the Texas
border" which explained the broad
grins upon their youthful counte-
nances. The train, they knew, was
taking them to some place where they
would get action and being young
and adventurous that is precisely what
they are looking for.
The war department, in carrying out
it's plans for the invasion of Mexico
after Villa, is pursuing the same policy
of secrecy concerning troop move
ments as has been employed by the
European armies. The war depart
ment has no intention of letting Villa
know where and when the attack
against him is to be launched.
Troop movements are numerous at
the present time and it is quite prob
able that number of eastern regi-
ments will pass through Richmond en-
route to Texas.

two or three day, and if SO why?
F. ]. Franklin, a former officer in

Il have received information to the
effect that there is an exodus OF Jap
anese from Chicago to the coast" he
told a reporter for The Tribune
They are making their departure
quietly and unobtrusively, in pairs and
threes. Observation of the railroad
terminals, l believe, will prove this to
be correct"
In view of the present Mexican
crisis Mr. Franklin further stated the
Jap exodus may be regarded as sig
nificant.

United States army officer discovered
that the Japanese servant who had
blacked his boots for two years was in
reality a major in the Japanese army,

WAR ORDERS TIE-UP
MOVEMENT OF ARMY

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE
European war is holding up the Amer
lean military expedition into Mexico
to get Francisco Villa. With the Unit
ed States on the verge of activities
which may require the immediate
shipment of huge quantities OF sup
plies to the border tens of thousands
of railroad cars are effectually tied up
in Eastern terminals loaded with sup
plies for the nations of Europe.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion admitted that the situation was
serious. The plans worked out some
time ago by railroad and war depart
ment officials for the quick moving
of supplies are set at naught by the
unprecedented condition of Atlantic
seaboard terminals.

Villa Well Armed.
1t was not surprising that Carranza
soldiers in the Guerrero district were
deserting and enlisting with Villa.
They are sure that he will lead them
to victory. Before the Columbus affair
it was reported that Villa had to force
the men into action.
Today, with the American troops
gathering, his forces are said to have
doubled with eager volunteers. 1t is
known that Villa has cannon. One
may hear that he is without ammuni-
tion, but in Ell Paso there are sleek,
silent men who offer no comment.
They could tell if they would, that am
munition is being shipped to the ban
dit leader.
Ell Paso is a war town, if ever there
was one. The coats of Ell Paso's male
citizens bulge in unexpected places,
and a coat thrown inadvertently more
times than not, displays its own argu-
ment of preparedness. Many men
from Ell Paso and the vicinity, old
plainsmen, who know Mexico better
than a native, have offered their SER
vices as scouts to the military COM
manders here.

TROOPS Leave INTERIOR
FOR MEXICAN BORDER

Ell PASO, Tex, March 13.-Prep-
arations for the expedition into Mexico
went forward today with systematic
swiftness. Train dispatchers worked
through the night and all of today on
the details for movements of troops
and supply trains from Fort Bliss and
other points along the international
border. A report that trains carrying
soldiers from Fort Sam Huston passed
through Ell Paso early today was not
confirmed at headquarters here.
Twelve supply cars were shunted on
the Fort Bliss siding today and were
made ready to follow the first troop
trains that start from here into
Mexico.

consideration the fact that Carranza is placed in
delicate position because of the feeling of his people.
The white house, it is known, does not believe that
conditions will ever shape themselves so Mexican
troops will have to enter this country 1t stated
officially that the reply to Carranza while granting
permission to Mexican troops to cross into the Unit
ed States in pursuit of bandits, will be so worded
that such expedition would be possible only un-
der the most exceptional circumstances.
Officials declare that the border from now on
will be closely patrolled by American troops that
it will be practically impossible for Villistas to cross
Should any attempt to do so, it is declared they
will be captured by United States forces. 1t was
made plain at the White House today that the presi-
dent will not go before Congress at this time He is
known to believe that such action might be miscon-
strued in Mexico and lead to serious consequences.

Huber Accepts Offer.


The offer of the position, the duties
of which include the oversight of
mission fields, caring for vacancies,
supplying, new ministers and organiZ-
ing new fields, was made to Rev.
Huber last week by the Home Mission
Board.
Because of proviso in the church
constitution, Rev. Mr. Huber's resigna.
tion may not take effect until the ex-
piration Of three months unless the
church council sees fit to release the
pastor from this obligation.
The board in negotiating with the
pastor desired that he begin his duties
on May 1, stating that there was i'm
mediate need for his services.
The East Ohio synod is one district
of the General Synod and embraces
the eastern part of Ohio including the
cities of Cleveland, Youngstown and
others. Rev. Huber's headquarters
will probably be in Cleveland.
Held Similar Position.
For seven years prior to his accept
ance of the local pastorate Rev. Mr..
Huber was a missionary superintend-
ent of the Nebraska and German
Nebraska synod including parts of
South Dakota, Missouri, Kansas,
Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico.
He said today that he was anticipat-
ing much pleasure in his new work

WASHINGTON, March 13.-The
capital was very gravely concerned
today over the Mexican outlook.
Early fears that Carranza will prove
a serious stumbling block to the puni-
tive exhibition to punish Villa partly
dissipated by his suggestion for a
reciprocal arrangements have been
strengthened by the developments of
the last twelve hours. Confidential
advices from all along the border tell
of unrest among the Carranzistas sol
diers. Villas action in exchanging
shots with American troops has added
to the hatred of the Americans every
where.
At any moment another invasion of
American soil at a point far removed
from Columbus, N. M. may be tried.
The situation is fraught with the
gravest possibilities.
The war department remained silent
regarding troop movements. Secre-
tary Baker pointed out, however, that
the task of getting an expedition of
the sort needed to cope with Villa al
ready was one that took time. Not
alone soldiers, but an adequate COM
missary, artillery support and ambu-
lance service is needed and all ar
