WITH GEN. FELIPE ANGELES
IN THE FIELD, Monday.-Some-
where to the southwest of Zaragosa.
sixteen miles from Juarez tonight, is
Gen. Felipe Angeles, moving with his
small personal bodyguard to the south
and west. He is bitterly disappointed
as to the crossing Of American sol
diers into Mexican territory Sunday
night in pursuit of Gen. Francisco
Villa, supreme in command of all
anti-government forces in northern
Mexico.
General Angeles left his headquar-
ters at g a. m. and twenty minutes
later General Villa. whose headquar-
ters were a little TO the south Of Gen
eral Angeles. about a twenty-five
minute ride, was also moving south.
Before the attack on Juarez last Sat
urday night, General Angeles stated
emphatically that he was not partici-
pating in il. and his only reason for
being SO near Juarcz was TO act as q
peacemakcr between the government
forces and General Villas army.
General Angeles said that the at
tack Saturday night was nothing but
test of strength between the op-
posing armies and it was led in per
son by Martin Lopez, who entered the
city about ] 80 a. m. Sunday with
less than 800 men, split up in three
sections. II there had been 500 more
men with Lopez Saturday night, the
murmurings against the United States
and its citizens today would probab-
In never have been uttered.
According to plans the attack was
most feasible from the east, as the
west was too well protected by

talon of artillery, advanced at dav-
break, started scouting south Of Ysle-
Ia, Texas. Capturing the seven pris-
oners before reaching the Villa camp,
the cavalry proceeded to within a
short distance of the adobe headquar-
ters, where fight was made by the
Americans standing in water up to
their knees, according to cavalry Of
ficers. Four Villa men were killed
in the first assault and the entire
force, numbering about 200 men, dis
mounted and escaped toward the
southwest with the cavalry troops in
pursuit. The rebels scattered in small
bands and General Hornbeck's Fifth
cavalry continued toward the south
west for a distance for 80 miles be-
fore returning to the river.
Colonel Tompkins' Seventh cavalry.

Howard H. Hicock, pursued another
band. Troops A and c of the Sew
enth cavalry executed mounted pis-
tol charge and killed a number Of the
rebels. The artillery placed shrap-
mel over the heads of the fleeing Viii
la force and many were killed. After
the two cavalry forces had pursued
the rebels over more than thirty
square miles. they formed a junction
and returned TO the American side Of
the river, accompanied by the artil-
lery and engineers, who threw pom
toon bridge across the river.
The cavalry, artillery and engi-
neers. tired. soiled and travel-stained,
marched over the mesa to Fort Bliss,
Many had souvenirs of the Villa pur-
suit. Officers obtained silver spurs
and many sombreros, knives and
equipment were brought back.
All Of the seven Mexican pris-
oners professed to be farmers ~ the
Valley or Carranza soldiers. none ad-
hitting having been with Villa. They
had only six horses and mules.
