FL PASO, April 4.-The news that the Villistas had suffered a second de- feat at the hands of the American troops. this time at Aguas Calientes. thirty miles northeast of Guerrero, was received here today in markedly sober manner compared with the ela- ton over the first blow struck by Col. Todd last Wednesday Confirmation of the news that Villa himseslf is far to the south. approaching Parral, had materially lessened interest in the act ual pursuit and diverted it once more to the railroad problem. which army officers here admit is rapidly becom- ing acute. There is frank scepticism in army circles here over General Pershing's ability to push much furth- e.. into Mexico without the aid or the railroads. IL is pointed out that the number of men required to guard the present 300 miles or more of commu- nications is out of all proportion to the total nuH1ber of troops at General Pershing's disposal Even if General Funston is able to get the reinforce ments he has asked for, the problem will still be a most serious one. Word is awaited from Washington as to the outcome of the negotiations pending with General Carranza as it is felt that some solution must be found to the situation without any great delay.
 An American mining man, who has lived for years in the section of the country where Villa is now believed to re. summed up the general feeling in the refugee colony here when he said: "If Villa has got into the country back Of Satevo it makes little difference whether the American columns are at bis heels or not. He can wave his hat at his pursuers and disappear into the contains where he couldn't be over taken in years. That country is an ideal one for fugitives. It is full of conyons, caves, and every kind of nat ural advantage for the bandits, water is plentiful and food easy to find. The only chance General Parshing had was 10 cut Villa off from the south. If he has failed in doing this it will take an army of 100000 men to search the country between Parral and Torreon."
 At the same time the high hopes which were aroused by the reports that Villa was seriously wounded have not been entirely abandoned. In spite Of circumstantial contradictions from several sources the story of Villa hav- ing been shot was repeated here today in a messaee General Gavira of Juaren is said to have received from General Luis Gutierrez, Carranzas field com mander. in an Associated Press dis patch from Torreon.
 The telegram made public by Gen. eraI Gavira follows:
 Villa is fleeing. seriously wounded. He has divided his main body into several ST all bands taking different directions. The Chihuahua state com, mander has divided his forces also. General Herrera. near Bustillos; Gen eral Cavazos is pursuing bandits from the rear and ought 10 have reached them today: General Benjamin Garza is reported nearing Satevo; General Maldonado and Colonels Jesus Her nandez and Clemente Castaneda, with sufficient troops, started today to oc- cuDy Naica Santa Gertrudis and near hv points in order to cut of any ban dits who go in that direction"
 The Torreon dispatch said that per sons arriving there from Santa Rosalia said that Villa had been at Naica, nine- tv miles southeast of Guerrero, three days ago and that he had killed Nicol- as Perez former bandit. A man who said he had seen the bandit chief as- serted that he was so badly injured that he had to be supported on his horse by two soldiers. one on each side of him.
