(By Review Leased Wre)

FL PASO. Feb. 17.-Mining compa- nies here received a message from Mexico City today stating that a de- cree had just been issued by the Car ranza government declaring forfeit all mining properties not in operation for which the owners had not applied for an extension of time. The time limit granted the companies in which to start work expired on February H. Those who asked for an extension of time on the ground of revolutionary disturbances will be required to show cause for their delay. This decree say the mining men. would result in the confiscation of American owned workings valued at millions of dol lars.

 It is certain. however, that no direct evidence of Villa has been obtainable in weeks. Reports, even those given out by his local junta, have jumped him over various parts of Chihuahua regardless of time or space. Carranza officers and officials have for some weeks admitted frankly they were baffled.
 News was received here tonight that the Mexican Central Railway is now open south from Chihuahua City to Mexico City. Recent fighting in Low CT Chihuahua, along this line, accord ing to Carranza reports, was not with bands led by Villa, as hoped, but by lesser chiefs.

!. POWER WANTED BY
 PRESIDENT
 IN CRISIS
Will Ask Congress for Free Hand to Act for Protection of United States Before the
 House and Senate Adjourn.
CBy Review Leased Wire)

(By Review Leased Wire)
 WASHINGTON, Feb. IT, The
 sdVisability of going before con
 gress before the end of the pres
 ent session, March I, to make
 certain that he be clothed with
 sufficient power to protect Amer
 ican lives and property from Ger
 man submarine activities was
 discussed by President Wilson to-
 day with members of the senate
 whom he called into conference
 during a brief visit to the Capitol.
 Afterward it was indicated that
 the President had not made up
 his mind on the question, but had
 such a step under consideration
 because of a possibility after ad-
 joUrnment some emergency might
 arise neeessitatine action before
 congress could be called together
 again.
 To Ask Free Hand"
 The suggestion was made that con gress be asked to pass broad resolu- tion authorizing the President to take any action for the protection of Am erican rights and avoiding specific stipulatiOns as to how the protection should be afforded. It was indicated that Mir. Wilson remained as anxious as ever 10 avoid war and that he gave no suggestion that a declaration of war which congress alone can make. is even considered by him at present in connection with the possibility of a request for additional authority.
 War Still Expected
 The general feeling here has been that Germany's submarine campaign sooner or later will lead inevitably to such violation of American rights as will require the further action by the President in his ad- dress to congress two weeks ago. The President Is understood to feel how ever. that when the time comes the solution outlined in that address should be followed out literally. and the steps taken should constitute an extension of further protection to Am erican interests rather than a deciar- ation of war.
 consuls are Safe
 Officials were much gratified at a from Berne today saying the American consuls remaining in Ger many. for whom some concern had been felt. would depart early next week. but there was no evidence that the development would lessen to an degree the tension be- tween the two countries. It has been pointed cut that the overshadOwing issue is the German submarine cam paign and that any other controversy must be considered as of minor i'm portance.
 Turkey Friendly
 There also was much qualification shown over a report from Ambassa- iOr Elkus at COnstantinople saying that Turkey was arranging to faciii- ate the departure of the several hun fred American refugees at Beirut. Officials regarded the news as an in lication that the Ottoman government was disposed not to break with the United States if it could be avoided. There were no developments during he day in the situation with Austria but some of these now hope that the break with Germany will not be eN- tended Co any Of her allies.
