GaVira Without Word
from CanO for 10 Days

FL Paso, Tex, April 1.-THE question
OF the loyalty OF the Carranza troops
has again come very much 70 the fore
here, following persistent reports that
Colonel Cano, the Carranza commander
at Nomaquipa, has Joined Villa.
Andres Garcia, Carranza consul mere
has refused 70 credit these reports on
the ground that Cano Is bitter per-
sonal enemy Of villa, but he admits
nothing has been heard from the Ma
maquipa commander for more than a
week. In the early days of the chase
after villa Consul Garcia and Genera
Gavira, commander at Juarez, mace
nublio several kilograms they said they
had received from Cano telllng OF
fights he had had with VIVA FORCES.
These kilograms stopped abruptly ABOUT
ten days ago.
The only direct information that mas
come from Namaquipa since then mas
been a paragraph in dispatch from
General Pershing In which IT was
stated that half the garrison at the
town had disappeared and that II was
suspected some Of them had joined
Villa.
Americans who arrived here from
chihuahua City yesterday asserted that
Colonel Cano was with the villa troops
defeated near Guerrero by Colonel
Dodd. but they admitted that their on! y
basis for the story was street gossip IL

that, having yielded 70 il, that she
would live up 70 il. Popular demand
in Germany for the continuance OF the

sinking of ships on which Americans

pected TO be in the hands of the de-
partment some time this week, possibly
in time for Tuesdays Cabinet meeting.
This evidence will be examined very
carefully TO determine whether 1t
forms sufficient ground for action by
the United States. -,
The Cabinet meeting Tuesday Will
be more largely attended than any IN
recent weeks. Secretary Lane. who has
been in California, returned to-day.
Secretary McAdoo, who is absent IN
South America, is expected TO be the
only absentee Tuesday.

Al Least 100 Villistas Slain by
Americans-Supply Prob

fTr@m star Co-rpsporden, n Tie Tribune
Fl Paso, Tex, April 2.-Reports from
Chihuahua to-day say large body OF
Villa bandits, composed in part OF
those driven from Guerrero by Ameri-
can forces and Of reinforcements gath
cred from among the poems in the
Cusihuiriachic country, is approaching
that city. Whether Villa is with the
bandits is unknown In chihuahua, but
the report was that he is with them
carried on a stretcher.
Fear is felt in chihuahua that the
bandits plan an attack on the city,
which is known TO have only few
hundred men in the garrison, the
greater portion OF the Carranza troops
having been sent out to assist in round
ing up the Villistas. Only those were
left in tie garrison, it Is claimed, whose
LOYALTY was doubted. AdUces to-day
say the small garrison would very
quickly Join the bandits In the event
an attack on the city is made

Thursday night at Cusihuiriachic, MY
miles southeast Of Guerrero. General
Iuis Herrera, with 1900 Carranza
troops, was said TO be at Laguna. north
Of Chihuahua City. He was said to be
wholly passive.
Men coming out Of Mexico say there
are fully 1900 American soldiers no"
in Mexico. and that the expedition has
grown TO proportions far beyond the
outlined plan. Nearly $500 men are IN
the column led by Colonel Dodd. how
many are in General Pershing's ad-
vanced column has not been learned,
but il is believed TO be larger than that
of Colonel Dodd. At Colonia Dublan,
MADEIRA. Pearson, Namiquipa and at
other points are commando large
enough to be formidable to the bandits,
and the lines Of communication are
protected with heavy patrols.
While the number of Niihstas slain
by Colonel Dodd's men is placed Of
fcially at sixty by General Pershing, It
is asserted in reports from west OF
Chihuahua that the number Is nearer
100. as scattered bands Of bandits are
being constantly overtaken by the
American cavalrymen and are being
killed where found. The trail from
Guerrero east is said TO be dotted at
frequent intervals with the bodies of
slain Villistas.

president Wilson is pedagogue
at the ST. Louis convention by acclama-
ton" said Senator Fall. NO self-re-
specting Democrat would assume re-
sponsibility for the mistakes Of Presi-
dent Wilson's Administration or at
tempt the hopeless task Of explaining
them. But President Wilson's days in
the White House are numbered. He
will be defeated at the November cleo
ton as sure as the sun shines.
president Wiso mis- a pedagogue
elevated 70 the Presidential chair. The
Administration Of few Presidents has
been so crowded with national crises.
He has dealt with every crisis IN the
weak, mollycoddle, namoy-pamoy
way that might have been expected
from a school teacher. In no crisis
has he played the pedagogue with more
discredit 10 the American nation than
in this Mexican imbroglio.

principles and noble purposes. As l
saw him wabble from n big mistake TO

believe him sincere. But | long ago

"Mr. Wilson Is the most coldblooded,
selfish President in history. lie has

interests. lie has had crisis every
Saturday night and a great diplomatic
victory every Monday morning. lie has

In spite Of the fact that these raids

air defences have operated successfully.
While nobody imagines that this ia

dercurrent Of belief that the new de-
fences have solved the problem Of de-
