army he said, was rushing troops to the north, General Dieguez, comman. der of the northeasterly military zone, was arranging for campaign against Villa and had airplanes, motor trucks and American cavalry horses for his cavalry. Exploration trains were be- ing operated out of Chihuahua City to the north, he said.
 Villa partisans here were frankly frightened today by the Washington statement and insisted that Villa would do nothing to give the American government an excuse for sending troops to Mexico second time. They called attention to the order issued by Villa that his men should make no at. tacks on border towns and settlements along the border as evidence of his desire to avoid trouble with the Unit ed States. They said reprisals would not be exacted and Villa would keep his men away from the American bor- der. The Villa representative said the Washington dispatch contained the same information the Villa junta here had obtained, adding that President Carranza's family had been sent to the United States and reports brought from the interior by Villa agents indi- cated general feeling of unrest throughout the republic.

FL PASO, June 21-Interest in Mexico developments, which was be- ginning to wane after a week of ex- citement across the Rio Grande, was revived today by the publication of the Associated Press dispatch rom Washington outlining the new Mexi- can policy, to the effect that an Amer ican punitive expedition would be sent into Mexico at the first hint of repri- sals by Villa.
 CarranZa and Villa partisans here were alarmed at the new attitude of the American government toward Mexico and a courier was sent to Villas camp as soon as the afternoon editions appeared containing the Washington dispatch. It was also sent to Juarez for the information of Gen. eral Gonzales and his staff and many mining companies having interests in Mexico telegraphed it to their repre-. sentatives in the interior.
 Carranza Expected 1t
 A prominent Mexican politician here of the Carranza party, admitted that the change of attitude of the American state department toward Mexico was not a surprise and had been expected for some time. He de- nied, however, that Villa had the nu- merical strength credited to him by the Washington government, adding that 5000 would probably be the total of his forces in the state of Chihuahua, instead of the 10000 credited to his army. Many of these, he said, were and many more poorly armed and equipped. The federal

PLAN DUAL MARCH TO fNSNARE VILLA
Sonora Yaquis And Army of Gen. Dieguez To Catch

FL PASO,. June 21-A plan of cam. paign by Mexican federal forces against Francisco Villas revolution. ary forces was revealed here tonight involving the movement of a body of men under General Manuel Dieguez north from Chihuahua City toward Villa Ahumada, 80 miles south of JuareZ, and the movement of more than 1000 Yaqui federal troops over the mountains from Sonora to Chihua. hua.
 Villa, at last accounts, have left Villa Ahumada and was moving west. ward, but whether his objective was the Casas Grandes district, where there are several colonies of Mor. mons or whether he intended to go to his old stronghold in the Santa Clara canyon, was not known
 A train left here tonight with a quantity of gasoline and other sup, plies for the fleet of motor trucks with which General Dieguez is ope, rating, under orders to push as far south as the railroad was passable General Dieguez was expected to march northward to meet this train, afterward turning westward in pur- suit of Villa. Between his force and the force of Yaquis sent from Sonora by General Gales, it was hoped to catch the revolutionary forces.
 Under this plan both the federal forces will have a railroad at their back to serve as line of communi- cation for at least great part of the distance from their bases.
 It was reported here tonight that General Gales probably would come to Juarez for consultations and to direct the movement of the Yaquis, but that he would not supersede Gen. Francisco Gonzales, commander at Juarez

 This telegram, coupled with the coming of troops to Agua Pri- eta for the first time in more than three years, has caused con- siderable excitement among the people in the border town and the district to the south. This has been added to by apparently reliable reports reaching Agua Prieta that while in the vicinity of Juarez Villa made the boast that he intended first to "clean up Chihuahua" then go across the mountains into Sonora and get revenge upon its people for the reverses inflicted upon him in the fall and winter of 1915-16.
 Six hundred and fifty cavalry and infantry which arrived in Naco last night, started late to- day to make a night march to Agua Prieta where they are ex- pected to arrive early Sunday morning. The distance is about 2S miles.

DOUGLAS, June 21.-The de. parture of troops from Douglas during the last week. having stripped the garrison in Camp Harry q Jones to less than a regiment of cavalry, the Douglas chamber of commerce and mines tonight sent telegrams to Sena- tors Marcus A.

 We ask you to make repre- sentations immediately to the war department for more troops here.

Discomfort Is reported to be nearing an outburst at Can anea and Mexican troops are gar risoned at Agua Prieta for first time in nearly four years.

l LONDON, June 21.-(By the Asso- l ciated Press. .)-The German officers and sailors forming the complements of the German ships interned at Scapa Flow sank most of their fleet today. All the big ships, the battleships and battle cruisers, excepting the Baden, and numerous smaller craft were sunk, while others went ashore in half sunken condition.
 Eighteen destroyers were beached by tugs; four still are afloat while the remainder went under. The wholesale sinking of the Ger man ships, which were surrendered under the terms of the armistice. was carefully arranged by officers and crews. All explosives had been re- moved and therefore the only means of destroying the fleet was by open ing the seacocks. The ships went down slowly, with the German flag, which the crews had hoisted, show ing at the mastheads.
 The crews, composed entirely of Germans, under the terms of the ar- mistice which did not permit of Brit ish guards aboard, took to the boats when the vessels began to settle. While making for the shore the boats were challenged and called upon to surrender. Some of them ignored the summons and were fired upon, cas- ualties resulting.
 This stroke apparently was an en- tire surprise and the first news reach ed London through a correspondent who was informed by farmers in the neighborhood that they had seen the German ships sinking with their flags afloat.
 The admiralty at first denied the report, but later confirmed it and issued an official statement. The German officers and crews have been made prisoners. None of the officials tonight would offer an opinion as to how they are to be dealt with.

PEACE MEET SUMMARY
(By the Associated Press)


 While the German ministry under Premier Scheidemann was giving way at Berlin to a ministry under the pre- miership of Herr Bauer, for the pur- pose of meeting the allied demands with respect to the peace treaty, the German officers and crews of the Ger man warships interned at Scapa Flow, opened the seacocks of the vessels. Many of the larger vessels-battle- ships and cruisers-were sent to the bottom. Some of the smaller craft were beached Only very few remain afloat.
 Under the terms of the armistice. according to the British admiralty, these interned vessels were manned only by Germans. When the ships were settling deep the Germans tcok to the boats, some of which. refusing to surrender, were shelled and a num- Der of the Germans killed or wounded.

Mail BY 'BLIMpS'
latest U. s. IDEA

The United States must and will
build a rigid dirigible OF a type far
superior to that OF the RIA. the Brit
jsh vessel. in order to establish the
true place of dirigibles in the naval
and commercial world.
This was the statement yesterday
by naval construction experts after
the news had arrived that the gaso-
line of the British "blirnp' had been
exhausted. The Navy Department
has already taken steps to establish
a dirigible construction station some
where near Cape May. This Govern
nent already has a small number OF
dirigibles. none Of which. however
was thought capable of performing
the feat of the R-34
II was stated that the Postoffice
Department intends at the first op-
portunity to use dirigibles for trans
porting mails as a regular overseas
service. 1t is not improbable that the
mail dirigibles will be of an improved
and practically perfect type which the
Navy Department proposes to build.
As a beginning IL is Contemplated
by the Postoffice Department to send
some mail back by the R-34
