reports from General Pershiug were
received at the army headquarters here
to-day, but his silence caused no I'M
eaSlness.
Exactly where Colonel Dodd's cav
airy is now. or into how many detach-
ments IL has been divided, was I'M
known az General Funston's headqusr-
tiers to-day. except the knowledge that
the advance was operating almost 800
miles south Of the border.
The exact whereabouts Of General
Pershing also remain unreported. but
this lack Of information created no I'M
easiness, for General Pershing still
has orders TO work out his own prob

into which some OF the advanced dc

knowledged Villas known ability as
n director of ambuscades has aroused
frank expressions of fear among army
officers that he may catch some Of the
American troops in mountain trap.
Openly expressed pessimism as TO an
early capture of Villa now is frequent
IN heard. Unless checked by the forces
of the Mexican government or unless
he himself decides 20 turn and fight,
there appeared no reason to-day why
the chase should cease until Villa had
led the Americans through twisting
mountain trails and over waterless
wastes for another 300 miles and

Says Secretary.

Washington, March os.-"We do not

This declaration was made by Secre-
tary Of War Baker before the House
Appropriations Committee in connec-
tion with the ss,611,5O emergency ap-
preparation for the pursuit OF Villa.
Among other things the appropriation
bill provides for twenty-four additional
aeroplanes. In this connection Mr..
Baker said:
There is no present intention Of
buying twenty-four machines. The
first thing will be 20 buy eight ma
chimes and experiment with them TO
get the best type we can Of those that
have been developed for European SER
vice. General Funston thinks he should
have eight machines in addition to
those he has now. They will be used
on scout duty, end will not be used
for offensive operations except incl
dentally.

how many columns We may have to

BIGGER Army BILL
CONES UP IN SENATE
Chamberlain Wants 10000 In
crease Over House Measure.

Washington, March 2S.-The first Of
the national defence measures got be-
fore the Senate for general debate late
to-day when the army reorganization
bill was made the unfinished business.
Debate on the bill. reported as a substi-
tute for the army measure passed by
the House, will begin tomorrow.
Senator Chamberlain, chairman OF
the Military Committee, will open de-
bate with detailed explanation OF tho
bills provisions There are some feat
ures of the House bill. particularly
those relating to the militia, that may
be incorporated in the Senate measure
before a vote is reached, in the opinion
of some Of the Democratic leaders.
Under the Chamberlain bill the au-
thorized peace strength Of the regular
army would be about 1879 men, an
approximate increase Of $4,000 over the
present peace strength and Of 10000
over che total proposed in the House
bill. Provision also is made for fed
eral volunteer force with a maximum
strength Of 100000 and a federalized

tons.
Secretary Baker refused 20 comment
in any way on the Telegram from SEN
ator Fall. Just after he received 1t
from Senator Gallinger, however, he
issued the following statement which
IS taken as an indication that he dis
counted Senator Falls report heavily:
dispatches OF last night and to-day,
while meagre and dealing largely with
technical matters, indicate continued
and growing good will on the part OF
peopie in Mexico toward our expedi-
ton. It's object seems 20 be more and
more thoroughly understood, and we
have no dispatches indicating any cause
for apprehension"
Secretary Baker said the expedition
had been so planned and executed as
10 be independent Of the use Of the
Mexican railways, but admitted per-
mission TO use the railways would be
an important advantage.
The War Department is negotiating
with manufacturers for new aeroplanes
TO replace the two that were destroyed
and the four that broke down in the
Mexican service. II is planning also
the purchase of new and more power
ful wireless apparatus, as static con-
ditions in Mexico have made the low
power equipment now IN use almost
yalueles5.
Secretary Baker said the department
was considering plans for the erection
OF two high power permanent wireless
stations on the Mexican border. These
would be useful for sending messages,
but would not aid in getting news from
forces in Mexico.

Need of Decision on
Use of Railroad.
EIGHT MILLIONS VOTED
FOR PURSUIT OF VILLA
Senator Fall Declares 'El Paso in
Danger from Resident
MeXicanS.
I'm n. --,.rl,- prr.s.. !

Washington, March 2S.-New evil
dences to-day that Carrsnzs Is not
only failing to cooperate with the
United States, but actually is hinder
ing its military operations, were disre-
gsrded in Administration quarters.
Officials continued to assert that there
was nothing but harmony in relations
with the Mexican government.
The fact is that Carranza's attitude
toward the American expedition has
been entirely negative. All that the
Administration can truthtully say Is
that he has made no official protest
against the pursuit Of villa.
On the other hand, he thus far has
evaded giving, if he has not actually
refused. permission 20 use the Mex
car Northwestern Railroad for the
transportation of American military
supplies. An urgent appeal went for
ward to Consul General Rogers at
Queretaro to-day on this subject, but
officials frankly admitted they did not
expect Carranzs 20 give immediate at
tention 10 1t.
The formal agreement defining the
scope Of the expedition has not been
signed, owing TO Csrranza's insistence
that not only the extent Of the opera
tions but also the time the American
troops shall remain in Mexico be deh-
nitely restricted.
Senator Gallinger to-day placed be-
fore Secretary Of War Baker tele-
gram from Senator Fall, who recently
went 10 the border 20 report on condi-
tions there. Senator Falls telegram
covered two points. First, that there
was great alarm at FL Paso because
Carranza had 700 men at JuareZ, just
across the river. and from 5000 TO
$500 more in the near vicinity, while
the American forces at FL Paso mum
bered only 300 Senator Fall believes
that fear of an attack from Csrranza's
force is not wholly justified, but adds
that the danger in FL Psso itself from
the 10000 Mexicans living there Is
real. Many OF them, he says, are for
mer Villa follower, and they may set
fire 20 the city.
Senator Falls second assertion was
that General Gavira, Carranza's com
mander at Juarez, had forbidden a
shipment Of three tank cars Of gsso-
lene TO private consignees IN Mexico
on the ground that it might ultimately
be used by General Pershlng's column.
General Pershing, Senator Fall said,
had made arrangements with two
brothers. Americans, who operate a
-four mill and general merchandise
store about 100 miles south of the bor-
der. TO supply his men with -four and
other necessities. The mill is oper-
ated by gasoleno and had a large sup
plv on hand. General Pershing ar
ranged TO get this for his motor trucks
Three tank cars OF gasolene were or
dered by the brothers 70 replace the
supply sold 10 General Pershing. but
the shipment was stopped by Gsvira.
This attitude on Gavira's part is held

ment is going out out of its way TO OBJ

Aero Club, Amazed at Re
fusal of Free Machines,
Tries Again.
as PLANES URGED
FOR MEXICAN USE
Criminal for AviatorS TO Risk
Lives on Present Type,
Expert Declares.

Following the War Departments re-
fusal Of its offer of two new high
powered aeroplanes, free Of charge,
the Aero Club Of America has now
offered the machines again at 81 each.
The departments refusal Of the offer,
made soon after Villas raid on Column
bus. stated that "the Mexican trouble
would last only few days" and that
there were enough planes in service,
but added that the government could
not accept gifts in any case.
Meanwhile, the War Department has
decided to order severalenew machines
for use IN Mexico, a fact which IS
hailed by the club officials as vindi-
cation Of their charges that the aeros
now in use are not fit for service.
Realizing from this decision that the
government is in need Of machines,
the club has renewed its offer, at the
same time complying with the rule
barring the acceptance Of gifts. No
reilly has as vet been received.
Members Of the Aero Club are
amazed at the indifference Of the War
Department, in view of the failure Of
the ..croplanes used on the border,
which they say are slow and not in
tended TO fy more than fifty miles.
One of the governors of the Aero
Club, Henry Woodhouse. stated last
night that il was almost criminal 70
send officers in these machines on the
long fight across the desert ahead OF
the American advance column, which
is at present 240 miles from the from
tier.
Amazed at L. s. Apathy.
In Europe" said Mr.. Woodhouse,
eft is considered essential that each
aviator should have three aeroplanes
at his disposal. At Fort Sam Houston,
where the planes on the Mexican Dor
der were stationed. there were ten
aviators and only eight machines. As
a result, there are only two in service
AT the present time In view OF the
fact that the army had no money for
more machines, this is eXcusable, per
haps. but it is difficult TO understand
the apathy Of the authorities in Wash
ington.
"As soon as the trouble in Mexico
started every one who knew anything
about the United States army realized
that the lack Of planes might lead TO
d disaster in case the Mexican situation
should lead TO a general conflict. Yet
the telegram which the club sent TO
Lieutenant Colonel Samuel Reber. in
charge of that branch of the service

planes, met with the following re-
