A3 ASTO.MO, Tex, March Z2.
General Funston said tonight he had
hren Informed of General Herrera'a re
portedreTOlt, and that, while confirma
tion -naa lacking;, Jie had taken pre
rantlonarj steps toward meeting ay
aggression alonaj the border.
SAM TOXIO. Tex.. March 22.
The report that General Herrera, com
" mandlng 2000 men at Chihuahua, had
aligned himself with Francisco Villa
azainst the United States was received
with grave concern by General Fun
ston and his staff.
Oficially and unofficially the opinion
entertained here was that if Herrera
has joined Villa. the international situ
ation might be made so complex that
by comparison the pursuit of Villa
would be regarded as incidental.
Consul Beltran, of Carranza's gov
ernment, received no report of the re
ported revolt of Herrera, and he was
inclined to laugh at it as a -border
rumor."
Vlre Cutting May Be Significant.
According to the version reaching
here Herrera was relieved Monday
from command, and immediately tool
steps to alienate his garrison.
That Carranza. has enough loyal
troops in Northern Mexico to drive him
from the city of Chihuahua if he at
tempts to hold the place wan veucc,
hv militatry men here, but it was
feared that retention of Chihuahua i
would not be his plan. Military ob
servers here see a possible connection
with his plan in the interruption of
wire service between Casas Grandes
and Juarez yesterday and wire cut
ting today between Torreon and oji
naea, opposite Presidio, Tex.
It was suggested that those who cut
tho wires between Casas Grandes and
Juarez might have thought that they
were being used by General Pershing
for communication with General Fun-
Gnve EiobarriKmt IOMihle.
If the report should be true, and if
Herrera desired to, ha could embarrass
greatly the United States in its efforts
to run down Villa and his followers.
Cutting off the Northwestern Railway
, at certain points would make it im
! possible for the Americans to use it
. - i : c1inniiM for many days.

since between Presidio and Ojinaga is
; the Rio Grande, instead of an lmagi-
nary line.

The struggle will be renewed tomor

A proposal by Kcpresentatlva Emer
son, of Ohio. Democrat, that would
hav'a admitted general officers of tha
National Guard to the Federal service
in command of their brigades or cllvls-
lonB in time of war, was defeated after
much debate.
The most Important amendment
placed In tha bill was suggested by
Representative Hayden. Democrat, of
Arizona. It provides that when a resi
ment of National Guard is sent to the
front, a fourth battalion be organized
by the National Guard reserve to take
the regiment's place and to train re
cruits for the fisrhtinir lines. t'nrier
this system, if the entire Guard were
called out, a force ona-third its total
strength would Immediately take lt.s
place at home to maintain order, secure
and train recruits, and insure that the
fighting regiment would be kept up
to full strength Without bclntf ham
pered, by levies of raw recruits. It is
possible a similar system will bo de
vised for th regular rejritnents.
