possible to say at this time just when
we will cross into Mexico. We will, natu-
rally. move soon. But one thing is GER
tain. We don't want to go off at half
cock. We have long and hard work be-
fore US, and we must organize fully, so
that when we do move we can push our
plans through to a successful conclu-
sion"
Mai Gen. Frederick Funston. in charge
of operations against Francisco Villa,
made this statement today.
Gen. Funston gave the information of
his plans simultaneous with the receipt
Of news to the effect that villa sympa-
thizers on the American side of the Dor
der were planning a guerrilla campaign
to harass American soldiers, and that
there was grave danger all along the in
ternational boundary that Carranza
troops would throw in their lot with the
bandits and endanger American towns.
While it is still believed that by
Wednesday American troops will have
entered Mexico in force, all advices to-
night indicate strongly that their task
will be much greater than merely a pur-
suit of the bandits who sacked Columbus.
Carranza Men Menace.
From several points on the line dis
patches tonight state that CarranZa
forces are adopting a menacing atti-
tude toward Americans.
More than 1000 Carranzistas under
Gen. Bertani at Palomas. seven miles
south of Columbus. are making open
threats against Americans. Strong
fear is felt in Eagle Pass owing to the
actions of the Mexican garrison at
Piedras Negras, across the river. while
reports from Nogales. Ariz., state that
suspicious movements are being made
by the Carranzistas in the Mexican
town of that name.
This grave situation, it is learned
tonight, is what has caused Gen. Funs-
ton to look well before starting on it's
way into Mexico an American force,
which would face overwhelming odds
and possible slaughter at the hands of
vastly superior numbers of Mexicans
welded together against a common
enemy.
