Although Villa's strength in the battle here was estimated at from 1,500 to 2,600 men, Captain Rudolph Smpeer and Cap- tain George Willlams, who participated in the pursuit, describec his retreat as precipitate. Prisoners captured that the bandits were stricken by fear although when they discovered the meager force of fifty-nine with which Tompkins entered Mexico, they made & stand with 500 men. B.

It had heen Stone's in- tentlon to file charges of murder against the bandits in the United Statey Pmt( for the district of New Mexico. There were to be eight charges, one for each of the elght soldiers killed in ao- tion. It was suggested todaythat the state authorities would also indict Villa on charges of murder and formally demand his extradition. Offieials Confident.

CENSORSHIP IS ESTABLISHED SAN ANTONTO, Tex., March 12.— Instructed by the War department at Washington that he was not per- sonally to command the troops that will eross the Rio Grande into Mexico General Frederick Funston today be- gan to arrange the detalls of the ex- | pedition and to plan for the safe- guarding of the entire Mexican border. During the day the general con- ferred frequently with his staff at }Fnrt Sam Houston, southern depart- |ment headquarters, A close censor- ship was established, however, on proceedings, All announcements were made by General Funston. Fanston Gives Information. From General Funston came this information: That an officer subordinate to him, a brigadier general, would command the punitive expedi- tion, That this officer would have complete charge in the field and would not be hampered by un- necessary instructions. That it would take two or three days to organize the force or forces that will go in pursuit of Villa. That the First aero squadron, stationed at Fort Sam Houston, will be a part of the expedition- ary forces. That a close watech will be kept at all border points for any symptoms of disorder that will necessitate the movement of troops. Won't Say When. General Funston, for military reasons, rofused to state how large the expedi- tlonary force would be; the time the for- ward movement would start: whether there would be one or several forces, and the point or points at which the Rio Grande would be crossed when the search began. It was known yesterday that General Funston was willing personally to lead the force searching for Villa. It was ex- plained here, however, that the War de- partment thought it best to keep General Funston at southern department head- quarters, where he would be in touch with and could direct the entire border situation. If there should be more than one ex- peditionary force, the common direction will fall to General Funston. Another reason assigned was that the entire routine of the southern department would be interrupted if the commanding general were in the fleld. General Funston #aid, too, that his place probably would have to be filled by an officer of lesser ;lk, not in touch with the border situs- . Wil Visit Positions. It is expected, however, that General Funston will make frequent visits to the positions occupled by the invading troops. The movement of troops from depart- ments other than that recommended by General Funston, toward the border, al- ready has been initiated, it is under- to search for Francisco Villa, Major | Will pretty 7-year-old Katherine New- | man-Green, pupll of Dundee school and now in happy suroundings have to leave he falryland of her foster parents’ home, Mr. and Mrs. Wilton Greene, 911 North Fifty-first street, and return to Bugene | Ore., with her father to face a life of | poverty and a stepmother | After listening to arguments on both sldes of the vexing question for several | hours, Judge Wilils Sears, In juvenile court allowed tho little girl to take the | stand and decide the question herself. | “1 wanna go home wif Daddy and | Mamma Greene,”” she lisped, hugging a | tiny doll her foster parents had given her. | Judge Sears took tne case under advise- | ment until Tuesday evening when a spe- clal session of court will be held to settle | the matter. Two vears ago Sam Newman, the little girl's father, turned her over to a family | named Frankel, and sald he would be | stood. The amalgamation of scattered) fragments of regiments, transportation, | the equipment of the commissary and other detalls would require, it was esti- mated by the general, at least two and | probably three days. | All such troops will be transported di- rectly to the border. The utmost se- crecy regarding their exact destination will be malntained. General Funston has Insisted on this precaution to the War | department, in order that Villa may be kept as much In the dark as possible. Army officers at Fort S8am Huston be- lieve the border is infested with Mexi- cans friendly to Villa, who will do all in thelr power to keep him informed. How Lomg Chase May Last. Estimates of the time required to cap- ture the former constitutionalist leader are not obtainable, but there was a feel- ing at southern department headquarters that the chase would be similar to the | one which had as its object the selzure of Aguinaldo in the Philippines years ago. Army officers are interested intensely in the part the first aero squadron will play In the pursuit. No American aero squadron ever before has had actual mil. itary service. Machines were sent to Vera Crus and there has been aerial scouting done along the border, but this is the first real test of the “fourth arm” of the service. It 1s known when the squadron will leave Ban Antonio, but it has been an- nounced that it will be ready by tomor- row afternoon. The weather now Js perfect for flying and it is thought that the start of the Journey will not be delayed any longer than is necessary. Captain - Benjamin D. Foulols, com- manding the ten officers under him who comprise the “fllers” of the squadron, and the eighty troopers completing the detachment worked hard today prepar- ing for their departure. A big part of the equipment will go forward by train. All Veteran Flyers. All of the officers under Captain Fou- lois, with the exception of Lieutenant A. R. Christle, will g0 to the front. Most of them are veteran aviators. Several of them participated in the flight of the first aréa squadron from Fort Sill, Ok, last November, when the squadron was transferred to Fort Sam Houston. Captain Foulois and Lieutenant J. W Carberry, T. 8. Bowen, I. A. Rader and C. G. Chapman are the present members of the squadron who made the flight from Fort 8ill. Other members are Captain T. T. Dodd and Lieutenants H. A. Dargue, W. G. Gorrell, W. G. Kilner and R. H. Willls, ‘While no reports have been received of disorders along the border, prepara- tions have been made to quell any that may arise.

He was away thres months and the family, finding it & hard matter to take care of her, asked relicf from the local Jewish charities. Henry Pollack, then a director of the charities, took the matter into fuvenile court, and found a home for the little girl with Wilton Greene, well-to-do Dundee resi. dent. Mrs. Greene has taken care of her as though she was her own Katherin and has formed such an Attachment for her that when Newman returned several years after and demanded his girl, ho was refused, although the little girl was never legally adopted The Greenes assert that Newman fs not fit to take care of the child and hope the court will allow them to keep Kath erine on this account. When Katherine took the witness stand, she testified her only remembrance of her stepmother was of beatings, and her recollections of home comforts were few indeed. about 1,600 men, comprising the three land branches of the service, that might be sent to the aid of the troops already at Brownsville, Laredo and other Texas border points. Squadron Undermanned. Captain Foulols, in command of the First area squadron, is one of the army's first ploneer air men. He was with Or- ville Wright in the first cross-country flight of Ameriea of any consequence— that from Fort Meyer, Va., to Alexan- dria, in 1%8. He was an officer of the Seventeenth Infantry when he enterod the flying corps. e is a married man and has 'amily. The squadron is under- manned, as its full completment should be twenty flying men. The equipment, in addition to the eight aeroplanes, consists of twenty heavy motor trucks and five motorcycles, the latter being used for the rapld transportation of gasoline and of parts to crippled machines, ‘The squadron uses Curtiss biplanes, with motors of from eighty to 100 horsepower. Each machine weighs about 1,35 pounds and will carry 450 pounds, or an observer, with each pllot. Twenty-five aeroplane guns and a quan- tity of ammunition will go forward with the motor trucks, it is understood. SEEKS TO MAKE TROUBLE BETWEEN U. S. AND JAPAN TOKIO, Japan, March 12.—It is the belfef of the Japanese forelgn minister, Baron Ishii, that “a certaln European power" in the past has endeavored to create dif- ferences between Japan and the United States to further its own ends. This opinion was expresged by the for- elgn minister in a statement before the Assoclation of America's Friends. He gave 1t as his opinion that acts of this European power were exerted for the purpose of serving its own asplirations for dominance. As that power now is occu- pled with its own troubles, the baron sald, the source of Intrigue has been removed.
