we do not propose to permit the use
of the war as an alibi for every

now should be legislation to estab-

Press Correspondents i:
Interview Gen. ANGELES

Headquarters of General Felipe
Angeles, Mexico, June 13.-Gen.
Felipe Angeles, commander of the
rebel forces in the vicinity of Juarez,
granted four-hour interview to a
correspondent of the Associated
Press Friday afternoon.
When General Angeles was asked
what he intended to do about
Juarez, he said:
Il do not know whether to take
the city or not. If I told you, that
would be military information and
of course l have nothing further to
say about Juarez.
"The only ambition I have is to
aid and assist those other leaders
with me in redeeming my country.
The suffering of my countrymen
has been intense these many years
in re-establishing the respect of
other countries we had once before
Plenty Of Money.
II have plenty of money and look
around at my men, are they not
good ones? We pay for everything
we get: we are not robbing any
body. The ranch folk in the valley
are getting paid for everything we
obtain"
When asked regarding General
Villa, General Angeles said:
"He is very well.'
"And how is that old wound in
his knee, general?" he was asked.
General Angeles laughed and said:
"The fact of the matter is that
General Villa never had such
wound. When General Pershing
was in Mexico after him, it was told
over and over of how General Villa
was wounded in the knee and how
his men carried him, drove him in
an old coach and how physician,
alleged to have been captured by
General Villa, was told he must
either lose the leg or die. That is
all nonsense. General Villa never
received any wound after the CO.
lumbus raid. The generals legs are
like they always were, perfectly all

U. S. Troops at Ell Paso.
Ell Paso, Tex, June 13.-The 24th
infantry, consisting of 1875 men, ar
rived in FL Paso from Columbus, N
NJ, Thursday night under command
Of Col. Arthur G. Hadsall. This
leaves one entire battalion of infan-
try at Columbus.
Andres Garcia, consul for the
Mexican government in Ell Paso
made the following statement to
The Associated Press:
"Stories of fighting in the neigh
borhood of Juarez are false. There
has been no engagement, big or lit
tie, and know that up to Thursday
night no force of rebels of any con-
sequence has been within 80 miles
of Juarez. Scouting parties are out
now. and as soon as they return we
shall know more about the where
abouts of any Villista force that may
be south of the city across the river.
In any case, there is no expectation
OF an immediate attack.
MY information is that between
l,40O and 1000 Villistas were con-
centrated at Villa Ahumada several
days ago, but whether they have
moved to the north l do not know.
There has been no fighting"
