Villa Retreating Into
Mountains, Is Belief

Ell PASO, March 12.--Francisco Villa with his band
of raiders who murdered sixteen Americans at Columbus
N. M, Thursday morning. is today reported at the Cor
ratoS RANCH twenty miles north of Casas Grande accord
ing to advces received by Gen. Gabriel Gavra command
er of the Juarez garrison.
That Villa has been informed of President Wilson'S
action in ordering armed forces the border to cap
ture him is the opinion of local military men and those
familiar with the outlaw chieftain.
Villa is known to have large number of spies and
agents along the border and it is believed they have in
formed him of the plan to send American troops in pursuit
of him and the men responsible for the massacre.
Military officers are of the opinion that Villa is re-
treating into the mountain faStneSS of the Gaanea dis
trict country with which he is very familiar He is ex
pece do split his soldiers into small bands in an attempt
Il harraSS the advance of the American soldiers who are
expected to cross the border within few days to take up
his trail.
Since the attack on Columbus Villa has travelled more
than Seventyve miles with his army and it is believed
that he is norching his naverage of fifteen hours
day His soldiers poorly mounted and his rapid
treat is puzzling local military officials
The district through which he has passed barren,
with little water He had scarcely any provisions when he
started is dash for the mountains.
When Villa left Columbus for the south he announced
bring the Mornons to Juarez from the Galana and Casas
GrandeS districts He hurried to Guzman to lay in ambush
and massacre the American MomonS but evidently learned
of the abandonment of the plan of the MomonS to come to
the border and then continued his retreat.
Villa is perfectly familiar with the Galeana district
and is believed that United States soldiers will find it
difficult matter to run him to earth.
He In several days start the American troops and
will require long marches to follow him through the
mountain region he is entering.

PLAN FOR AMERICA
TO BUY NORTHERN
STATES OF MEXICO
Authoritative Statements Made
That Col. House sounded"
Foreign Governments.
SUGGESTED BY AsAuRsT

Reports that, have been current in
Wall Street. leading financial circles in
several cities and In political and diplo-
matte groups, to the effect that the Ad-
ministration contemplates acquisition by
purchase OF the northern section or
Mexico. and that Col. r. N. House
really went TO Europe TO Sound" cer-
tain governments on this policy, are
now declared on authority that cannot
BIO ignored TO be substantial and OF ex-
treme potentiallty. .,
The plan, 1t is asserted. Is to purchase
all OF Mexico that ~ north OF n direct
line drawn west from the southcrly out
skirts of the city of Tampico. including
the entire lower California peninsula.
Colonel House. who recently returned
from a trip abroad Ms the special repre-
sentative of President Wilson, did not
discuss peace proposals alone. It is de-
clared here. despite denials. on the con-
trnry. he Is confidently believed to have
made inquiry of leading statesmen OF
Great Britain. France. Germany. spain.
and other nations as to what their at
titudc would be In case tho United
States made such an offer to Mexico.
the European powers az q unit agreed
that such move would not only be
agreeable to them. but even pleasing,
for il would insure their being reim-
bursed for losses sustained In the Mex
lean turmoil of recent years, which they
could not expect to collect without con-
flicting with the Monroe doctrine. DR..

Is credited with having taken leading
part in some OF the negotiations.

While leading men here say It will be
extremely difficult to approximate a
price equitable to such an enormous
purchase, the tentative figure mentioned
for tho basic effort will be about s30l-
600 900
Republican lenders say they arc
forced to admit that such a move or
the part OF the Wilson Administration
would b. master stroke on the eve
Of the Presidential election. and that nc
Republican could oppose the plan.
The two principal objects that interes
all statesmen In the plan "a that the
move would prevent any stretching
OF the Monroe doctrine. and at the same
time make this nation secure In that al
chance for a foreign power establishing
a naval base on the Pacific coast would
be future impossibility.
Assertions that Colonel House visited
Europe OH such mission have oc
casioned some surprise an view of The
fact that President Wilson Is on recoro
as opposed TO the acquisition OF adj.
tional territory.
However, II Is pointed out that there
has been evidence OF late that the Chic!
! Executive is acquiring the habit Of n
| change OF opinion and viewpoint and
that the latest plan Is really the only
peaceful one he can see for eliminating
the Mexican problem.
Carranza will not object. II Is declared
here in quarters that can hardly be
questioned. IT Is even stated that nc

Fort Mycr today Is as a house about
TO be abandoned. While orders to the
