MUST Get VILLA
OR RETURN HOME
Washington To !! / Bandit
Be Taken at Once.
NO PROLONGED MEXICAN HUNT

General Scott Orders invaders Not to
Stop in Mexican Towns-Free to
Pass Through or to Go in and Get
Bandit-Carranza Troops Doing
Nothing.
Washington. Mar 20.-The state
ment was made IL high official quar-
ters that unless Villa is caught before
he reaches a place of hiding IN hls
mountain strongholds the American
troops may be withdrawn without cap
turing the bandit chief
This was the first indication given
that any alternative was considered
short of fulfilling what has been ac-
cepted as the primary object of the
campaign-to take Villa dead or
alive"
Don't Occupy Towns, Order.
Major General Scott. chief Of staff
and acting secretary of war IN the
absence of Secretary Baker, sent tele-
graphic orders to General Funston
that the American forces are not to
encamp in any Mexican town. These
orders were sent at the request of the
state department General Carranza,
through his representatives. had
urged that American troops avoid
Mexican towns.
General Scott said, however, that
the orders would not prevent Per
shing's forces passing through MeXi-
can town or pursuing Villa into a
town If he attempted to take refuge
there
General Scott would not discuss
what orders had been sent to General
Funston regarding the measures he
should take to capture Villa. Nor
would he discuss the movement of
Pershing's or Dodd's forces.
Officials would not give out the
exact text of the orders sent to Fun
ston at the time the Villa hunt vas
started
Speculate on Villa Plans.
There is much speculation as to the
plans of Villa. The Carranzistas pro
fess to believe that he will break up
his forces into small bands and scat
ter through the mountains, but there
is belief in some quarters that he is
either heading south in an effort to
form a junction with Zapata Or will
turn west in an effort to reach the
Mexican Pacific coast and get as far
as possible from the American border.
Carranzistas Not Active.
It is understood that the American
forces are convinced that the Carran-
zistas are making very little effort tc
capture Villa, many Of the Carranza
troops being former Vilistas are still in
sympathy with Villa and many Of the
others being afraid to meet him in a
battle.
The fact that the CarranZistas ap-
pear to know as much about the exact
location of Villa daily yet have not
met him in battle and che fact that
they claim to have thousands OF
troops in the vicinity through which
he passed. yet have not even reported
a skirmish with any of his men. is
being commented upon by army men
with significance. The latter part of
last week the Carranzistas reported
a large band of troops at Namiquipa
only a few miles south Of Las Cruces,
the point at which they reported Villa
Saturday. yet no engagement had
been reported between them.
