the expedition into Mexico would start.
Senator Chamberlain and Repre-
sentative Hay, chairmen, respectively
of the senate and house military COM
mittee, conferred briefly with the
secretary Chairman Stone of the
senate foreign relations committee was
told by President Wilson that condi-
tions in Mexico appeared more favor
able.
The state department was formally
advised of the receipt by General Car
rama of the reply sent yesterday to
his proposals for reciprocal agree
ment as to the pursuit of bandits along
the border. Unofficial information
reached the department that the
American note was favorably received
by Carranza- The department has not
renewed its standing order, urging
Americans to stay out of Mexico for
the time being, but il was indicated
that the attention of consuls in Mex
leo might be again directed to those
instructions.
Warns Americans TO Leave.
1t is assumed that Consul Canada at
Vera Cruz acted under the standing
order in urging Americans to leave
the interior of Mexico as reported in
news dispatches. Although protected
by a CarranZa garrison, the Mormon
colony at Casas Grand in the heart of
Villas territory is cut off from the
border by a break in the railroad. I'M
doubtedly made by one of the Villa
bands
One of the first movements of the
American forces probably will be in
that direction. Carranza officials have
maintained that their force was SUI
ficient to protect the colonists

to the inability to obtain any definite

newspapers to reach the city. Rumors
everywhere that intervention is ac-

tense situation.

of reports which led authorities to be-
llieve that a raid from the Mexican
side of the border was planned either
by Villa supporters or by deserters
from the army of General p. Elias
Gales, military governor of Sonora.
Nothing came, however, of the rumor.
Officials here are unable to learn
of conditions at Cananea, Sonora, one
of the largest mining centers of
Sonora, which is operated largely by
Americans. Wires were cut during
the night. leaving Cananea isolated.

rived in Naco, Mexico. just across the
border from here, last night, bringing
alarming rumors from Cananea.
Most of the women and children in
iNaco have been sent for safety to
Bisbee, seven miles northward. Addi-
stional troops have been brought here
from Bisbee to reinforce the border

Mexican troops across the line is esti-
mated at about 1000.
