words to the men he declined, saying II.
would not be proper for him to do So.
Aimed to Avert Riots
In the absence of Mr. Osborne from
the city yesterday friends declared
that the letter made public by Mr.. Car
ter was an appeal by Mr.. Osborne to
the men inside the prison TO behave
themselves no matter what the result
of the election might be, it being well
known that some of the hotter headed,
fearing a return of the old prison sys-
TEN, would start a series Of riots such
as followed the dismissal of Warden
James S. Kennedy few years ago.
This, it was said. was admitted By
Mr.. Carter at the luncheon given by
Mrs. Helen Hartley jenkins last Mon
day. at which Osborne, Carter and
Acting Warden Derrick met Mr.. Car
ter, however, is said to have insisted
that, as Mr.. Osborne had seen fit to
resign from the prison, he must be con-
tent to remain away from it and trans
act whatever prison work he might
wish to do through the department in
Albany. The one activity suggested for
him by Mr.. Carter was securing places
for discharged prisoners.
On this point DR.. Kirchway said yes
terday that he believed the department
really wishes to have the benefit Of
Osborne's experience.

u. S. to Move Against Villa
if He Threatens Juarez


Washington. Dee ]. The capture Of
chihuahua City to-day by Nillistas. re-
ported in consular dispatches 10 the
State Department. seriously compli-
Gates the Mexican situation. in the
opinion Of Administration officials. and
makes Intervention greater POSSIBLE
ity than at any time since the fight at
Carrizal. Both Secretary Lansing and
Secretary Baker held long conferences
with President Wilson. but maintained
the strictest silence with regard TO the
Administration plans
IL was declared authoritatvely. how
ever. that If Juarez should fall into the
hands of the bandits, or become the
scene OF fighting, the United States
would take possession Of the city at
once. and probably would move troops
down the railroad toward Chihuahua
in an effort 20 destroy the main Villa
army.
Many officials believe Juarez is vii
las real objective. and that In any case
he must take that city If he expects
70 hold Chihuahua. as its possession
by the Carranzistas would be con-
slant menace 10 him. To prevent the
capture of Juarcz and consequent in
tervention. it is expected in official
quarters that Carranza will demand
permission to transport troops across
American territory from Aqua Prieta,
Sonora, opposite Douglas. Ariz., to re-
inforce the Juarez garrison and enable
the de facto forces TO move on Villa
from the north.
Whether permission 20 do this would
be granted is not known, but Carranza
has been allowed to do this before,
and il is considered likely the Admin
istration would permit it again If there
was any hope Of avoiding armed inter-
vention in that way.
II is declared also that the present
grave military situation in Chihuahua
may force President Wilson to with
draw Pcrshing's expedition at once, to
concentrate the regular army forces
for possible Intervention along the
Juarez- Chihuahua line.
From his present position Pershing
would be helpless TO cooperate in any
movement against Villa. He has 12,OOO
men in Mexico, ard his vulnerable po-
sition requires supporting force on
the border of more than that many. By
withdrawing him from Mexico. officers
point out. II would be possible 20 con-
centrate a regular fore Of $4,000 men,
ready to move instantly toward any
point on the border that might be
threatened by the Villistas.
The United States. through the War
Department, is still refusing 10 permit
shipments of arms into Mexico, even
to the de facto government. through
fear that the ammunition might be
used against Pershing. II Pershing IS
withdrawn this fear would no longer
exist, and munitions might be sent to
Carranza in quantity. Administration
officials believe, however, that villa
gets most of his military stores from
Carranza troops, and that any ship
ments permitted from the United States
would prolong the fighting.
