in western Chihuahua. General Ga
vira stated that at 5 o'clock tomorrow
morning General Luis Gutierrez, Chi
huahua commandant, would be sent
on Villas trail.
Ignacio Enriquez, governor of Chi
huahua, will arrive in Juarez tomor-
low to confer with Luis Cabrera, Car
ranza's minister of the treasury.
On the American side of the border
troops were prepared for marching or
ders. The Ell Paso & Southwestern
railroad, which runs along the very
edge of the border, received govern
ment orders to hold all trains in read
mess to be placed under military COM
mand. This indicated that troops
from the various forts along the bor-
der were to be flung out in readiness
for the move. 1t was reported that
the First company Of the signal corps
was to set out early tomorrow morn
ing for Columbus, N. NJ, the scene of
Villas latest raid. The engineering
battalion from San Antonio was moved
to Fort Bliss.
With troops in motion there came
the rumor that the expedition would
start across the boundary line Monday
morning. Officers, however, declare
that the first move will not come be-
in command at Fort Bliss, is said to
have been assigned to take the first
mon across the line.
The first detachment of the eXpedi-
ton may start in the vicinity of
JuareZ. Military commanders have
thrown the utmost secrecy about The
plans Of the army. Like as not, the
move will come unheralded and swift.
Villas spies are plentiful in FL Paso.
The Ell Paso authorities are keeping
them under ylryeillance and one or
two who have been too obviously ac-
tive are understood to be under de-
tention.
Late tonight 1000 Carranza troops
were on the outskirts of Juarez, hav-
ing arrived from garrison towns in
Carranza territory. Alarmists in Ell
Paso took this as an indication that
Carranza was ready to resent the
American expedition if it attempted to
cross the Rio Grande. But messengers
brought word that the Carranzistas
were brought to tuarez for the one
purpose of protecting that city
against Villista attack.
To attack the big Mexican city right
under the noses of the American troops
would be characteristic Villa move
ment and the Carranza leaders do not
care to let him succeed in such a mel
odramatic feat.
Villa, according to all information,
is driving his forces without fear
The outlaw. it is said, has surrounded
himself with fighting guard of men
he can trust. With these he has forced
men and boys to ioin his forces and
make pledge "Death to all Ameri-

In their march to Corralitos from
the neighborhood of La Ascension, the

capture after its own heart-a train

Coming From San Diego.

1t was reported this afternoon that
two troops of cavalry are on their
way to Calexico from San Diego to
relieve the troops at Calexico, who
are ordered to join their regiment.
Whether the Calexico troops are to
remain on guard until relieved could
not be ascertained, but in view of the
protest filed it is probable such will
be the case.

President Wilson today sent word to CarranZa ac-
