had been knocked down weighed 1900
pounds, establishing new record for

Troop Concentration Begins.

COLUMBUS, N. M, March 13.-The
actual concentration of United States
troops for the expedition to capture
Villa in Mexico has begun here, and
considerable progress already made.
The heavy movement of military units
in this direction, officers say, indicates
this place is to be the base of the oper-
atoms.
1t is generally believed this morn
ms that Brighten. Pershing will
be in active command of the American
troops, and will make his headquar-
ters in Columbus. AS announced from
Washington, Major General Fred Fun
stan, with headquarters at Fort Sam
Houston, (San Antonio) is in supreme
command of all the American forces
Elong the southwestern border, and
General Pershing's forces will operate
s part of Funstons army corps.
Carranza authorities are making
hurried preparations to assist in the
chase after Villas bandits, the garri-
sen at Palomas having been strongly
reinforced during Sunday. General
Pablo Bertani, the Carranza comman-
der there, reports the arrival of eight
hundred troops, which number in
creases the de facto government gar
rison at that point to two thousand
foot soldiers. There is expected that
closest cooperation between American
and de facto Mexican government
troops will be maintained during the
continuation of the expedition.
The American garrison at Column
bus now numbers HOO troops, prin-
cipally cavalry, and this number it is
anticipated will be augmented by the
addition of two regiments of infantry.
These troops have already been order
ed to Columbus by the war depart
ment, and are expected to reach their
destination late Wednesday. There is
greatest satisfaction manifest by civ
ilian residents here that the Wilson
administration has definitely deter
mined to end lawlessness along the
border, and protect property in this
section from further depredations by
Mexican bandits.
One signal company, battery OF
field artillery and a detachment of
ruountain artillery are among the
newly arrived troops in COLUMBUS, all
OF these units being apparently ready
for an immediate start into the bandit
infested region. The formal start of
the expedition into Mexico, it is stated
this morning, will probably De delayed

road facilities, and the distance from

Women Have a
Bigger Chance
Fer Saving Now

LONDON, March 13-Women usual
ly spend more money than men and
therefore have much greater oppor-
tunities for retrenchment than men,
according to the arguments advanced
by the government and it's supporters
in the general campaign for economy
now being renewed throughout Eng
land.
One of their best arguments is to
point to the recent statement of a
great English economist, who de-
cried the changing fashions during the
war. I'm the middle of the big war;,
he declared, the whole womankind of
our country bot out of tight skirts in
to full skirts at enormous expense in
the twinkling of an eye. 1t does not
cost as much to change ten clerks
from civilian attire to khaki as it costs
to change the outward semblance of
one fashionable woman"
Women are urged to wear one-color
suits which will give them the appear
arce of being smartly dressed and
which will bear critical inspection for
longer period

LONDON, Sept 24-One German airship. and probably another. was brought down during a raid over the eastern coast of England and the out skirts of London last night. according to an official statement One airship was brought down in the southern part of Essex and it is reported fell on the Essex coast.
 No reports of casualties or damage have been received. The text of the statement follows:
 An attack by hostile airships was made on Lincolnshire and the eastern counties and on the outskirts of Lon- don. The latter attack was made from the northeast and the southeast about midnight, and was beaten off by our anti-aircraft defenses.
 One airship was brought down in flames in southern part of Essex and a report has been received that an- other fell on the Essex coast. The latter report hitherto is unconfrmed No reports of casualties or damage has yet been received"
 The raiders apparently did not come so near to London ss on the occasion of the destruction/ of the L-21 on Sep tember 3. The sound of gun fire was fainter when the distant reports of anti-aircraft weapons shortly after heralded the approach of the raiders.

Fred A.

Ponsford & Carnine to attend to the interests of his clients, and on arrival in Fl Paso had received the following message from them:
 We have obtained an order of seiz- ure from the Federal court under which the marshal today seized the firms papers. including books. tele- grams, letters, orders and miscel- laneous lot of other documents. We have not yet investigated these pa pers,, but obtained more than We ex- pected."

NEW LONDON, Conn.,, Sept. 23.- ! Decision as to where the American Mexican joint commission shall con tinue it's conferences after next week has been left to Ambassador Arredon- do, representing Mexico, and Wm. Phillips, third assistant secretary of state. it was learned tonight. It will be necessary to move because the ho- tel where sessions have been held here will close October l. Atlantic City, Lakewood, White Sulphur Springs, and Garden City are among the plac- es suggested.
 An early termination of the confer ences could be reached if the Ameri- can commissioners were willing to agree to the chief desire of General Carranza's representatives, which is the withdrawal from Chihuahua of the American troops, but the American commissioners have made it clear that any agreement must be based on the conviction that conditions war ranted the change.
 The net results of the three weeks conference is that the Americans have added greatly to their store of infor- nation relative to Mexican affairs, and that they have endeavored to con vince the Mexican representatives that whatever the United States has done with regard to Mexico, was not done because of selfish motives.
 General Carranza's objection to con tinued discussion of Mexico's internal affairs has not prevented a somewhat exhausted study of the economic and financial affairs of that country.

It was in. dicated today that continued growth of the new bandit movement might be made the basis for the argument that instead of taking the American troops out of Mexico they should be used in cooperation with Mexican troops to run down the raiding forces. It be came known that already there has been some discussion of such coopera- tion.
