An additional committee consist

Said To. Favor Omaha.
General Barry, who has charge OF
the Central army division, recently
made a trip to Des Moines to i'll
spect Fort Dodge site and it is felt
that his mind is open for the Omaha
men. The second committee, COM
bined with the representation now at
Washington, will make a total of
fourteen of Omaha's leading business
and professional men who will call on

Sary
The encouragement received from
Omaha's representatives in Washing
ton, who are fighting to have the
cantonmcnt camp transferred from
Des Moines to Fort Crook, has made
a marked impression on men of
Omaha who are interested in seeing
the site brought to this city.
Await Generals Request.
The report OF General Barry OF
Chicago, who made thorough in.
spection of Camp Dodge Monday,
will be awaited with intense interest
here The general would make no
announcement at Des- Moines, pre-
ferring to wait until he has returned
TO Chicago.
Should the Thirteenth Cantonment
district be transferred to Omaha, it
will mean one of the biggest achieve
ments of recent years. More than
10000 soldiers would be concentrated
at Fort Crook and given elementary
instruction in the business of war.
Contracts would be given TO Omaha
concerns, which would run into mil
lions of dollars.
Railway facilities of Omaha are
uncqualed and this has been one of
the most serious drawbacks for the
Iowa capital. Six cross country lines
enter Omaha and two lines through
Fort Crook.

afraid of Edgar Howard as governor,

thing to do is to get the lieutenant

solved one way or another so long as
Pershing stayed, and that it would be
best to withdraw all American troops
from the stricken country in order to
remove any American or anti-Amer-

a disposition to leave Mexico to work
out its own salvation without interfer-

No official information is at hand as
to whether Villa or Carranza troops
will occupy the territory left vacant
by the Americans, but the belief Is
strong here that the bandit, who Is
credited with at least 5000 well-armed
men and who Is now at least four
times as strong as when the American
troops went across the border, will
make desperate effort to take the
territory particularly for its moral eff

The delay in sending Ambassador
