Bandits Dispersed He
Informs Washington
SIXTH CAVALRY TO
Guard BIC BEND
By Nd UnIted Preas.


WASHINGTON. ID. c.. May 20.-
Withdrawal Of the second American
expedition from Mexico 10 Boquillas,
Tex. will be accomplished In a few
days. the War Department announced
today. Colonel Sibley believes his
mission Of dispensing the bandits who
raidod Boruillas and Glenn Springs,
Tex, has been accomplished. and ho
has notified headquarters of his lntcn-
tion TO return To the border For this
reason the Sixth Cavalry. which with
drew from the first expedition yes
terday, will be utilized as a Big Bend
patrol instead Of reinforcing the FIRST
expedition.
Reports today showed that in the re-
cent brush OF the second expedition
with MeXicans four bandits were
wounded and two captured.
They had held as prisoner Car
rama commanders son. thus showing
they were not allied with the Carranz-
istas.
The second expedition has dispersed
the bandits. driving them something
more than i25 miles below the border
| Further. II has released Dcemors and
Payne, the American captlves taken in
the Big Bend raids This. taken with
the fact that the Mexican country be-
low to the Big Bend is arid az this
time of year. leads TO the view that no
considerable bandit gangs can long
carry on any operations from there.

GERMANS EXPECT
FAbb Of VERDUN::
RESUME DRIVES
Say Steady Nibbling Process
is Wearing Away Great
French Fortress
COLLAPSE OF ALLIES
IS NOT EXPECTED
BY CARL ". ACKERMAN,


BERLIN. May 2O-Germans regard
the fall OF Verdun as one OF the GER
tainties Of this war. They have.
however. no extravagant ideas that
the taking OF the French citadel will
result in the collapse OF the Allies.
Despite announcements from Paris
and London that the German often
sive at Verdun has ended definitely
in defeat the German lines continue
to draw more tightly about the for
tress.
No such rapid gains as in the early
days OF the offensive have been made
nor are they expected. But the steady
nibbling process is slowly wearing
away the French defense northwest
Of Verdun. II is confidently believed
here that the whole of the French
works centering about Hill 304 and
Dead Mans Hill will be in the Ger
man hands before long.

RIOT after WEDDING,
BUT SICZKA innocent

Evidence presented in City Court this
morning showed that there must have
been small riot in Apple street last
week near the house at No. 1925, but
failed to connect Charles Siczka with
the difficulty. The defendant declared
he had attended a wedding in Peach
street near the scene of the trouble, but
had not gone to Apple street until after
the trouble was over.
Judge Churchman ruled that while
evidence was conflicting there was not
enough against the defendant to estab,
1ish his guilt beyond reasonable doubt
and the case was dismissed.
