DESPITE FRIENDLY ASSURANCES OF CAR
RAMA, AMERICAN ARMY OFFICERS BE-
LIEVE MEXICAN SOLDIERS WILL
RESIST INVASION.
tBy International News service.)

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, March IS. : An
American cavalry force numbering 4,5OO men
under the command of Colonel Geroge A. Dodd,
crossed from Columbus, New Mexico into Mexico
early this morning, according to reliable reports
ceived here.
At 1000 O'Clock last night Funston states he
had received no official confirmation for the move
ment of troops across the international border so
the expedition has been left entrly in the hands Of
Pershing, who had the right to order an advance at
any moment he saw fit.
Pershing to Follow with Large Force.
The expedition consists of parts of the Thir-
tenth, Tenth Eighth and Seventeenth regiments
of cavalry with two ambulance corps and a field
hospital The fact that Colonel Dodd is in com
mand is taken to mean that Pershng will soon fol-
low with larger force.
First Air Squadron at Columbus.
The first air squadron reached Columbus, New
Mexco last night, but is not expected to be in shape
for scout duty until Friday. The tension and sus-
penSe in regard to what sort of a reception the
United States soldiers will receive at the hands of
the Carranza troops is intense. Many army Off
GERS believe something in the nature of surprise
lies in wait for the 'boys in Khaki despite the

PUTS THE BLAME
 ON MIR. MCDONALD

To the Editor of The Age-IieralG:
 MT. Mcdonald says he is not to blame for the condition in which the city will be if the injunction which he seeks Is granted. If he is not, who is? But for this injunction there would be ample money in the treasury to pay the inter- est on all outstanding bond issues aud on all authorized to be issued The city, while 1t was doing without many things that city ought to have. was yet able to live, by the exercise of the most rigid economy. It was keep ing within its revenues. It could have paid the interest on the additional $5,- 900, 900 of bonds without touching It's general fund and without detrirnent to any interest whatever. MT. McDonalds suit, if it succeeds, not only operates to cheat the people out of the victory which they won at the polls fer an auditorium for better and safer school buildings and for a municipal light- ing plant, but it throws upon the gen. eral fund the interest on practically $5,000,000 of bonds. issued since 19a1. thus compelling the city to default up II those bonds, or to increase licenses and other taxes. If MT. Mcdonald did not do this. who did? If he is not the prin- cipal in this affair who Is? The pubic would like to know. Ii. in order to run the schools. tuition fee is necessary. thus excluding thousands of children of the poor, who is to blame if Lot T. c. Mcdonald? If the merchants ard professional men. already overburdened with licenses, are required to pay hor- izontal increase, who is to blame if not T. c. Mcdonald? If street tax on rich and poor. high and low, is necessary to supply this deficiency, who is to blame if not T.. c. McEonali? :? Mir. Mcdonald. if you have any prin- cipal, produce him.

.SCHUPP MAKING GOOD
With M'GRAW'S GIANTS
Youthful SOuthpavv Said TO BE Class Of
League-May Build 1917 Team
Around Him.

New York. Oct. 4.-After three years
spent on the bench. wondering II he
ever would be given a chance to make
good, Ferdinand Schupp, youthful Giant
left-hander, hase come into his own.
Schupp's work recently has been one
of the features of the Giants great
squirt and in the long string OF victor.
les the New Workers recently finished
Schupp won five games.
When Schupp first went to the Giants
tnree seasons ago, Wtlbert Robinson,
then the New York coach for pitchers.
recommended to McGraw that the
youngster be kept for training. How
good this advice was is borne out by
Schupp's recent record.
Slated for Release.
Schupp had hard time getting his
start. During the three seasons he
spent as a looker-on he was classed
Vile, as one of the "Shoo Twins, and
IT was matter for argument among
Giant fans regarding which of the two
would first draw a release.
SChauer won the race when he was
sent to Louisville. and from that time
on Schupp has shown progress. Rube
was no sooner gone than Ferdie had his
chance and made good. Joe Tinker,
isn't better youngster in the league
than McGraws southpaw sensation.
Former Colonel Member.
Schupp is graduate of the Louis
where he was something of a star. His
work in the National league had been
enough to dishearten wiser manager
than McGraw The little Napoleon's
wisdom never had more convincing
argument in its favor than Schupp's
record.
McGraw has announced that his staff
for next years pennant whirl will be
built around this youthful star. Al
ready he has two other, great left
handlers in Sallee and Benton. In Per
ritt, Tesreau and Anderson he has a
trio of right-hand fingers who are
classed with the leagues best. Way
and Smith, two youngsters, have seen
service in the minors this year and will
be given every chance to make good
next season.
Brooklyn is searching valiantly for a
shortstop to fill the shoes of Ivy Olson.
Fitzsimmons, Fabrique and Kelleher
have reported and are being watched
carefully. Fitzsimmons is from the
Northwestern league, Kelleher from
the Western and Fabrique from the In
ternational. The shortfeld position has
been the Dodgers weak spot for
some time.
