Carranza Troops Yield Before
Mexican Outlaw.
COOPERATION IS SUSPECTED
Ease With Which Bandit Escaped
Indicates Sympathy on the Part
of His Opponents.

San Antonio, Tex, March 28.-
Francisco Villas escape from the re.
gion about Namiquipa was preceded
by smart defeat administered by him
to part of the Mexican government
troops and was unopposed by other
detachments of the de facto govern
but credible reports reaching here.
The Gordon of Mexican troops that
the Mexican authorities announced
should have been drawn across his
path gave way, according to these re-
ports, with a willingness that indicat
ed their cooperation with him rather
than with the American forces.
Army men at department head
quarters were inclined to believe re,
ports of inefficiency and half hearted
cooperation and contemplated with
speculative eye the probable future OF
the second phase of operations just
inaugurated by the commander of the
punitive expedition.
No reports from General Pershing to
General Funston dealt with other than
routine subjects, primarily those hav.
ing to do with the transportation OF
supplies.
1t is realized here that the early cap.
ture of Villa would be little better
than an accident
With their knowledge of the coun-
try and with the assistance they can
obtain along their route Villa and his
followers, it is feared, will have no
difficulty in keeping ahead of the pur.
suing Americans.
That Villa will be able to effect a
juncture with considerable force be.
fore he is brought to a stand again is
regarded at headquarters here as
probable.

now in Mexico is to punish Villa and
his followers.

"He told me if ever 1 needed anything in this line to come to you. He spoke of you as man on whom one could rely with perfect confidence, who had only the best of evrything and with whom it was always a pleasure to deal"
 "Mr. Quorn is very kind" answered the other, beaming with qualification He is one of by best customers. What can I do for you this morning?'
 "Well-er-this morning, as it hap pens," said the stranger, with just a little briskness, this morning l should like, if you will allow me, to consult your directory"

Franklin Objects Seriously.

She isn't very large, that's true, but being county seat, and boasting of a college, several factories, flour mills, railways, interurbans and her lately acquired Masonic home, Franklin feels that she is not a town to be passed lightly by, in fact, she knows her i'm portance, and thought that everyone in the state realized 1t until she was taken down a bit lately. During the big conference of the Methodist churches held recently in the town a meeting of the Indianapolis presbytery was in session at the same time at Hopewell, a country church in pros porous farming community few miles out One of the Presbyterian delegates, on leaving the train joined in the throng headed for the Method ist church. When it came to regis tering, some of his inquiries caused someone to suggest that probably he was in the wrong place, and he asked innocently: Isn't this Hopewell?"

 Under the new measure" said MT Clary, it would require only a major 'ty of the judges, the same as any other case going before the tribunal. Another change made was the addi- ion of a paragraph specifically pro- viding that no local measure in con- 1ict with state law could be in- tiated The lack of such a paragraph in the defeated measure caused many persons to vote against it, believing hat state laws could be overridaen."

Long before the office closed for the day it was totally exhausted. Approximate ly s25OO0 was paid out. This includ- ed the balance of S1S,500 in the fund yesterday morning, S5,411 inheritance tax paid in by the attorney generals office, and approximately $1,000 paid in fees by other offices.

presently, will immediately assume, has indeed already assumed, a magni- tude unprecedented in our experience. We have not the necessary instrument talities for its prosecution; it is deemed to be doubtful whether they could be created upon an adequate scale under our present laws. We should clear away all legal obstacles and create a basis of undoubted law for it which will give freedom without permitting unregulated license. The thing must be done now, because the opportunity is here and may escape us if we hesitate or delay.
 Porto Rico's Needs.
 The argument for the proposed amendments of the organic law of Por- to Rico Is brief and conclusive. The present laws governing the island and regulating the rights and privileges of its people are not just. We have ere ated expectations of extended privi- lege which we have not satisfied. There is uneasiness among the people of the island and even a suspicious doubt with regard to our intentions concerning them which the adoption of the pending measure would happily re- move. We do not doubt what we wish to do in any essential particular. We ought to do it at once.
 There are other matters already ad- vanced to the stage of conference be tween the two houses of which it is not necessary that I should speak. Some practicable basis of agreement concerning them will no doubt be found and action taken upon, them.
 Inasmuch as this is, gentlemen, prob ably the last occasion 1 shall have to address the Sixty-fourth congress, hope that you will permit me to say with what genuine pleasure and satis- faction I have co-operated with you in the many measures of constructive pol icy with which you have enriched the legislative annals of the country. Il has been a privilege to labor in such company. I take the liberty of con graduating you upon the completion of a record of rare serviceableneSs and distinction.
