REVIEW INVASION OF MEXICO IS EKPECIED Oil i Carranzistas Have Trouble in Checking Demonstrations LIVES OF AMERICANSTHREATENED, Ihf American Governmeot Desires to OJIaiii Canada's Consent Before Invading the Mexican Territory KU PASO. March 1 ?,. Threatened by organized resistance from an aroused Mexico, the expedition to crush Villa Is still held in lcasl.. The troops are en route on special trains from all army branches to either participate in the invasion or replace troops on the border who are sent across the line. The Invasion is now expected Tuesday, though tleneral Funs'on's policy of thorough pre paredness may cans - f urt her delay. Carranza's threatened opposition and Villa's flight toward the settlements of American Mormon: . who are at his mercy, has torn the bord- r be tween anger and feir. The C.irnin zistas have already expert '-nerd trouble in suppressing auti-Arneri -:,n demonstrations. Six Americans ar rived from Chihuahua today, and they reported that two Carranzista officers had threatened tin ir lives. Twelve thousand Americans are mohollxing. The invading expedi tion may avoid cities to prevent trouble with non-combatants. It is expected, however, that the Ameri cans will seize the Mexli an North western Hallway at Juarez. Ninety lnlle:; below the border the ttoops will leave the trains at Cuzniun and ntlempt to envelop Villa. WASHINGTON. March 1 Sec retary Lansing announced tliis atter nnoii that the State Hepartnient had reached an pgreement with Carran.a regarding American troops entering Mexico and the military reciprocity proposition. Durum a debate in the Senate to dav. Senator Chaniln rhiin declared: "If we think we can whrt Mi;o in a few we'ks, we will be woefully sur prised. I believe Villa will become a National hero. Sixty thousand men may rally about him.' American llelil Hack. WASH I N(JT N, March 1 :! .---Two considerations are ftill halting the invasion of Mexico for Hie p-irsuit of Villa. First, the Government de sires General Carranza's consent, and, second. Ceneral Funston is holding hack until he is ready to smash the banbst. Army withers predicted that the Americans would enter Mexico Wednesday at the lat est. Misinformation niven by the Mexi an Kmlmssy caused it to announce that President Wilson had accepted the terms of military reciprocity. The statement was withdrawn when the White House denied it. The Kmba::sy declared Carranza's mani festo, liublished this morning, w as grossly niisipioted. A copy manifesto which the Kinb.i reived is tssentially the sam letter sent to Secretary of the as tli l.ani'ins previously. The administration heliees it will bo able to conduct the exp-dition against Villa without nie.-iing Car ranza's o'uios't ion.

F.aeh year a stripe will be added on the sleeve of the plaer provided he continues on the team. As a result of this action, which is decidedly new on the part of the school, it Is probable that athletics will he placed on a more substantial basis than they have ever been pre viously. This will meet with the approval of all the students and those interested In their activities. The Kosehurg llir.h School has re ceived a great deal of advertising this year from the. efforts of thi basketball boja, and hereafter no trouble Is expected in securing games. Not only were they success ful in their pla ing, but they will have over a $ 1 " balance left for next year, after the purchase of this i;ir's emblems, to att' st their suc cess financially.
