Francisco "Pancho" Villa, former
revolutionist, now agriculturist, may
pass through San Antonio in February

ern farm implements for his hacienda
at Canutillo, Durango, Mexico.
Mexican papers state that "Pancho'
has already correspondent with Gov. Pat
NJ. Neff on the subject and has been
informed that he will not be molested
or arrested while in the state of
Texas.
According TO the published story.
Villa has become a scientific farmer
and desires TO buy tractors, mode N
implements and othcr rr.
proved machinery for his Immense
ranch.
Through his secretary, Col. Miguel
nillo. Villa took the matter up with
Governor Neff. The governor held,
according to the story, that as Villa
had abandoned all political activity
and now being engaged in a peaceful
pursuit, he would not be arrested while
in the state and that he could visit
any cities which he might choose.
Dismiss New Mexico Charges.
Villa was at one time under indict

in the Columbus raid of

raid. Governor Larrazola of New

Mexico Papers Say Noted Revolutonist Soon to Pass

Mexico before retiring ordered all in
dictmcnts be dismissed. Whether Villa
has becn reindictcd in New Mexico for
the same crimes is not known. No
public information has ever been given
out, il such is the case.
The Texas courts in cases tried at
Laredo held that state Of war ex-
listed between the United States and
Mexico at the time of incursions and
deaths of American soldiers at Carrie,
Tex. during the Carranza administra-
ton and that the offenscs were politi-
cal. Whether Governor Neff would
honor an extraditioR warrant from
New Mexico for Villa, in case there
is an indictment there against him,
is not known. Courts have not de-
cided that the Columbus raid was
political offense.
Daughter Is Buried Here.
If Villa should spend any time in
Texas, it is thought that he would
stop in San Antonio. He still owns
property here and has many friends.
1t will be remembered that his
daughter died in San Antonio about
two years ago and was buried in City
Cemetery No. 3. 1t was stated at the
time that Villa had intended to event
ually take the body back 10 CanutillO.
A monument has been erected over the
grave and Villa would in all probability
stop in San Antonio TO visit the grave.

SAP TRAIN HITS CAR
AT BERG'S MILL AND
YOUNG GIRL MAY DIE
DriDer of Automobile Did
Not See Train Un-
til Too Late.

An inbound San Antonio 4 Arkansas
Pass train collided with family auto
mobile at the Berg's Mill crossing at
9 AS Saturday night and as result,
one person may die. That others were
not seriously hurt or killed, is con-
sidered miracle.
LaFon Derrick, 10, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. T. NJ. Derrick, 7O2 Denver
Boulevard is in the Santa Rosa Hos
pital with fractured skull as a re-
suit of the accident. Other members
Of the family in the car were Mr.. and
Mrs. Derrick, two children and Mrs.
Derrick's mother, Mrs. G. NJ. Gentry.
No one of them was injured.
Just as the car attempted to cross
the railroad tracks, Mr.. Derrick says,
he saw the train approaching but only
in time to swerve the car to the right,
running several yards up the track.
But he was too late. The train, which
was coasting down hill and was not
heard by the occupants Of the car,
struck the automobile squarely on the
right side.
The injured girl and other occupants
of the car were placed on the train
and road officials wired to the city for
an ambulance to meet the train at the
VI. X. & T. depot. On its arrival
the girl was taken TO the Santa Rosa
Hospital, where physicians declare she
has only small chance to live.
The Derricks have been residents of
San Antonio for only two months. Mrs.
Derrick's mother, Mrs. Gentry is visit
ing here from Dennison which is also
the former home of the Derrick family.

DEADLOCK PREVENTS
NAMING COLLIER AS
RESERVE BANK HEAD
San Antonian Opposed by
Plattis, FAVORED by
Crissinger.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 27.-Delay
naming the chairman Of the board for
the Federal Reserve Bank at Dallas
and the federal reserve agent for that
district is said TO be due to a deadlock
among members of the federal reserve
board in Washington. In view of this
fact. a feeling prevails that it would
be best to wait for confirmation of
new members of the board.
According to the best unofficial in
formation obtainable, Vice Governor
Edmond Plattis is opposed to the selec-
ton of w. W. Collier, while John r.
Mitchell, another member, fayOrs him.
1t is intimated that Plattis' objec-
tions to Collier are based on the belief
that the San Antonio bankcr is a
Democrat. He served as insurance and
banking commissioner under Governor
Colquitt.
Friends of Collier are said to feel
that, if Crissinger is named as a mem
Der of the board, he will aid Collier.
This. however, may be delayed consid-
erably. as the subcommittee which has
been investigating James G. McNary,
FL Paso banker, nominated as success
sor to Comptroller Crissinger, is pre-
pared TO bring in an adverse report,
and it is suggested that President Hard
ing may withdraw McNary's name.
W. w. Hoxton, secretary Of the
federal reserve board, declared today
that the. names of several candidates
for the Texas position are under con-
sideration, but the final action prob
ably will await the reorganization Of
the federal reserve board.

Concentration Of Greek and Turk
Troops Reaches Danger Point.


Lausanne, Jan. 27.-Thc concentra-
ton of Greek and Turk troops at the
danger point in Thrace was reported to
the Lausanne conference today. Allied
delegates made representations to
Greece.
Lord Curzon, today had occasion TO
use plain words across the council table
in denouncing Turkey for refusing to
give England possession of the war
cemetery at Gallipoli, where British
troops who fell in the disastrous Oar
dancles expeditions are buried.
The British foreign minister declared
be had hoped Ismet Pasha would take
this opportunity to carry out elementary
duties of humanity and honor"
The Turks, angry. prepared to break
up the conference, which. for weeks, has
made no Roadway toward the settlement
of tie Mosul problem.
Athens dispatches carried the news
that the Greeks were concentrating
troops on the west bank of the Ma
rita river and that the Turks had con-
ccntratcd 10000 men on the right bank.
With the deliberations here hanging By
a thread, it is feared a clash would i'm
mediately follow the breaking up of the
conference.
While Mosul was not discussed here
today. dispatches from Geneva reported
that the League of Nations had granted
the British request to act under article
IL Of the league covenant to prevent
VIZ between Great Britain and Turkey.
