FL PASO, April 17.-General Ra- mon Iturbe, special envoy of Presl- dent Carranza, arrived here yester- day en route to Japan on a special mission for the Mexican government.
 The envoy is not so close-mouthed as is ordinarily the case with per son bound on as delicate mission as Iturbe claims to be, and talked freely on the subject of his errand. He says that there has been an understanding between the Mexican President and Japan, that in the event of a break between Mexico and the United States the Japanese were to come to the aid of Mexico, and for this service were to be rewarded with various conces- sions in Mexico.
 While he does not state positively, he intimates that the errand on which he is bound Is to secure a positive promise from Japan that she will aid Mexico in case of war between the United States and Mexico.

FL PASO, April 17.-Several mes sages have been received by the eff cials at Jaurez today stating that Vil- la is dead and that the body of the outlaw has been found. Opinion is divided here as to whether the bandit is really dead or whether the reports are merely a ruse to secure the with drawal of the United States troops from Mexico The preponderence of opinion, however, is that the report is true and that Villa really succumbe bed to the operation for the removal of his wounded leg, as reported some time ago.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. April IT, Following a long session of the cabi net, held Saturday night, President Wilson announced that he was will ing to fix limit on the distance the American expedition pursuing Villa should go in Mexico. and which. he stated. would probably not be much further south than the point at which the expedition now is.
 The President said that the govern ment was willing to give assurances to President Carranza, of Mexico, that the troops would be withdrawn at a reasonable time. but that they would not be ordered out of Mexico at once. He said he desired to be as- sured that Villa was really deserted by the greater part of his following, and was a harmless fugitive, who would be unable to reorganize his force. He said the government had no desire to interfere in the domestic affairs of Mexico. but that until Presi- dent Carranza was able to demon strate his ability to prevent Mexican bandits from crossing the border ard wantonly murdering American citi- zens and destroying their property. the United States would have to take an active part in putting down the outlaws, and preventing a repetition of the raids which have so harrassed the border town for some months past.

SAN ANTONIO, April 17.-Gener- al Frederick Funston, commander of the United States forces connected with the Mexican expedition, has re- ceived report on the Parral trouble from General Pershing, and today made the following statement re- garding the trouble at that place re- ported a day or two ago.
 Funston says that the United States soldiers were in no way re- sponsible for the trouble and that the Mexicans were the aggressors thru out. According to the report from General Pershing, number of un- armed soldiers from the American expedition entered the town for the purpose of purchasing food. They were set upon by number of Mexi- cans, who fired upon them. killing two of their number. The soldiers retreated tP their detachment and the troops marched into town and gave battle to the Mexicans, forty of whom were killed.
 4 The report of General Pershing fails to state whether the Mexicans who fired upon the Americans were soldiers or civilians, nor does he state whether or not there were Mexican soldiers engaged in the battle which followed. It is believed that General Pershing has dispatchd more troops to Parral to prevent the occurrence of further trouble.
 General Funston said that he would, advise the War Department

that it would be impossible for the American expedition to go much further south unless his force was largely augmented because of the diff ficulty now experienced in supplying the troops with munitions and sup plies, and the danger that the line of communication would be immediately broken in the event of war, as with his present force he is unable to use troops to protect the line from the strong force of Mexicans now gather ed between the border and the point reached by .Pershing's expedition.
 General Funston is said to have asked the Department for more troops some days ago but there has not been made public what answer, if any. was made to his request.

THE PAY-UP CAMPAIGN.

Already the beneficial results Of the 'Pay-up Week.
campaign have become noticeable according to business
professional men and others who have noticed the in
creased effort the part of the people to comply with
the spirit of the movement.
And yet it is not always noticeable effort the part
of people pay bills especially small ones. 1t is true
that many people allow small accounts to run for weeks
and perhaps months merely because the account being
small there is realization Of its Importance to the
whom it owing But this person doubtless has many
such small accounts the aggregate of which represents
burden to him making it necessary for him to withhold
payment of larger accounts of his own.
If the careless people alone were to appreciate the
suits that might come from a "Pay-up" campaign, il
would more than compensate for such movement.
But more day remains Of the week set aside fol

day Those who have heretofore neglected tC
comply with the spirit Of this movement should accept
this little reminder of the good they do to them
