NOT ENOUGH ROILING STOCK
SAN ANTONIO, Tex.; March 13.
Major General Funston announced
positively early this afternoon that
there will be no movement of troops
arrosa the border today.
It was officially announced that
Erltadler General John 3. Pershing
will command the - expeditionary
forces.
General Fuimton M he had received
no notification from W'aiihlnaton'ro hold
back the expedition whllo negotiations
vera completed with Oeneral Carranta.
General Funston said today that ttia
announcement of the expedition's actual
tart Into Mnxlro probably would come
from General 1'erithlng, to whom would
be left the declnlon as to the exact hour
for setting the movement afoot.
dhortaa-e of Rollins ftioek.
Khortsge of rolling- stock, Oeneral Fun
ston said, was hindering the concentra
tion of cavalry at the baso of operations,
and this waa one reason why a move
ment today was unlikely. The fault, he
said, lay with the railroads west of El
I'aao.
"'W hava even had to transport men
in boxcars," be declared.
"If this had been merely an Infantry
expedition wa could hava beet Into Mex
ico on Villa's very heels," ha continued.
"But this Is larfely a cavalry movement
and that is why there has been delay."
Will 1 Lara Force.
Light was thrown, on ' the slie of the
expeditionary forca by the general, who
said:
"When this movement Is completed
there will be only six or eight regiments
left In the Vnlted Ptates other than thoso
troops stationed alona the borduv for
patrol duty.
"Of course" he said, "If the Carranxa
government were unable to control the
situation and thera should bo general
cpponitlcn In Mexico to the entrance of
American soldiers ths entire regular
army would hava to be employed In the
movement and part of the mllltlH, too.
I'atrot duty along the border would be
delegated to the militia."
It waa made clear that this eventuality
was not expected. There will be no in
fantry or cavalry movements from Foit
Bum Houston for the present. It was an
nounced today. The first aero squadron,
Captain Benjamin D. Foulols, command
ing, went forward to E! i'aso this mor.i-lnK.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., March 13.
General Frederick Funston today
outlined his plans for the capture,
"dead or alive." of Francisco Villa
and his band of outlaws.
"We do not ourselves know Just
when the expedition will start Into
Mexico, although, of course, It will
be soon," he declared.
"It will go forward Just as soon
as a sufficient number of men with
an adequate commissary can be or
ganized. It will not be held back,
however, until all the troops now or-.
derArl in the hiirdae hava arrivAit I
Long; and Ardaioat Task.
"There I no use going at this thing
half cocked, The task ahed of us wul
be a ling and arduous one."
It became known today that tho plans
for tho campaign against Villa have been
affected by the border situation elsewhere
than at Columbus, N. M. The situation
is so Important as to have hindered rapid
concentration of the punitive expedition
that will go after the perpetrators of the
Columbus outrage.
Great excitement has been noted, it In
authoritatively stated. In the Cirranta
garrisons at Nogale, opposite tie
Arlsona border town of that name, and
at Pledras Nagras, which fronts Ragle
Pass, Tex., from across the Rio Grando.
This uneasiness has extended to th
large Mexican population on the Ameri
can aid, Troops now stationed on th
bordor are sufficient to cope with any
situation that may aiiie. General Knnston
says.
Mast Be Iteplaced.
However, a it Is his Intention to uie
these troops in the search for VI U and
as they cannot be moved until other de
tachments arrive to retrace them, com
plete organisation of the expelitlonary
military has been held up.
Army circles feel bound to respect tra
fear of residents In American town that,
notwithstanding assurances from Gen
eral Carransa's representatives, uprising
may follow the actval o cupitlon cf
Mexican territory by American sol'le .
It is felt that the welfare of the 7ordcr
cannot be sacrificed to the doubtful suc
cess of hasty and therefore unprepared
pursuit of th fugitive Villa.
General Funston's statement regarding
the uncertainty of the punltiv expedi
tion's departure was In reply to what he
termed th impatience of ths American
people for speedy action.
"The people must be patient," he said.
''W must b adequate y prepared f.r
thl thing.
"In th first place, we must ue at
much a possible soldiers who ar accus
tomed to Mexican border duty. However.
these men cannot be removed from t'ulr
present posts until they are relieved by
troops drawn from other department
and hurried to the border.
"Transportation of th relief patrols is
not an easy matter. Many of t)-e e
troops consist of s atterej detachments
that have to be concentrated, sometimes
after difficult marches, before t' ey cm
be sent southward.
"Concentration and taiaprlsllon cf
troops Is not all cf our problem, how
ever. We arc going to marth into a
country that will afford us Utile or no
forase. The commissary must be ado
quately su p led. .
American Mast lie Fed.
"A Vllia follower can live oil .itt'e or
nothing. An American soldier must be
well fed If he Is to five good sir'lce.
"V won't gain anything by haite. To
send an adequate f rce, imuff ciently
piovlslored, af.tr Villa, would hinder and
not hasten matters."
Speaking regarding the course the cam
paign will take. General Funston said:
"There will b more than on expedi
tionary force, although I am not at lib
erty to say how many, or from what
point or point they will start.
"All this will be left to the discretion
of the expedition commander, who will
hav complete charge of all the force In
th field.
"I don't believe In awivl! choir cam
paigning. Mmy Visit Ksreea,
"Necessarily, th campaign will develop
new situstions, and the disposal of the
troops is contingent upon these develop
ment. I may at intervals visit the field
forces.
"Of comae, the expedition ill not
await the arrival at the border of all the
troop now being dispatched from other
departmental stations. It will be gotten
under way Just as soon as possible, and
when other troops arrlv they will be
ent forward as reinforcements.
"El I'aso, naturally, will Ih the lae
of supplies for our army. Kl l'a:o will
b supplied through Fort Sam Houston,
fan Antonio."
The general explained that th First
aero snuadron and eight scouts of the
army would not do all the scouting for
the expedition.
"Wa are hiring civilian scouts," h said,
"who ar familiar with every foot of the
territory we will penetrate Americans
who have been working down In that
country for years."
Will Be Very Valuable.
It Is the general' expectation that the
aero squadron will be of great service.
"Of course the flyers have seen duty
down on the border," he said. "They
couldn't accomplish much, however, for
thickets and stretches of bushes made
observations difficult. Out in the open
meeas of the territory w will traverse
the boys will render great assistance."
Advance duty service in the small de
tachments that are thrown out by armies
as "feelers" will be the most haxardoua
work the American soldiers will encoun
ter. General Funston believes.
"VUlistaa will at times surprise these
scouting parties," he said. In ordinary
warfare our men might, . tf hopelessly
outnumbered and resistance was futile,
surrender with safety. To surrender to
the Vllllstas, however, would be worse
than suicide. Villa's men will kilt every
American they can lay hands on. Every
encounter with them means a fight to
the death."
Kntralnlnsr I Begss.
.It has been decided that the first aero
squadron will not attempt a flight to the
base of operations. Entraining of th?
eight machines, the accessory tru k,
and motor cycle and supplies, begun to
tay but was not completed. The squadron
will not get away until tomorrow, when
It will proceed to El Paso.
Hospital company No. 7 and ambulance
company No. 7, left before daybreak to
day for El Paso to be dlxratchel where
needed. They were followed shortly by
the Second battalion of engineers, Com
panies E, Q and H. There will be no
ether movements from Pan Antonio t
fire Monday.
It was reported here that a guard hai
been placed over the Southern Paclfl
viaduct at Del R!o over which the varlo is
detachments from Fort Sam Hous'.on will
pasj.
Ose Line Cast Be Used.
One railway line, runn ng southward can
be utilised by the American fores dur
ing a part of the pursuit. It was painted
out, however, that ultimately tha chase
after Villa may lead the expedl.Ion mora
than 200 miles away from the railroad.
This will mean that a long line of com
munications must be established, strongly
protected in order that supplies may be
Insured.
Transportation of food, forage and am
munition will become a serious under
taking under such conditions, the general
fald. It Is probable that even water will
have to be carried for preparation for all
contingencies will have to be thorough.
Hay for the horses alone will run Inti
millions of pounds.

army patrols with three days' rations
were tonight assigned to guard the
border on each side of the American town

continued to pass through tho Mexican
town of Nogales, apparently concentra

have asked permission to pass 700,000
rounds of ammunition Into Agua Prleta,
that the shipments thus far have been
