THE .OREGON. DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, TUESDAY, MARCH 21, 1916. REPUB L SELECT A TEMPORARY Many, Names Considered but Subcommittee Puts Matter Over Until Meeting in April, Chicago. March 21. (L N. S.) After a long discussion of the qual ifications of .numerous candidates for temporary chairman of th Eepub lican national convention to be held In Chicago June 7, the sub-committee on arrangements adjourned today without reaching- a decision. The sub-committee will meet again at some date in April, when a tem porary chairman wlU be named. The exact day for this in ee tine. , how. ver. was not named.

Mo Call of Massachusetts, Senator II. C. Lodge of Massachusetts, C. S. Osborn of Michigan, Senator George Suther land of Utah, and W. J.

Chairman Hllles announced, that the selection of a temporary chairman was deferred because of the absence of Committeemen Nledringhaus of Mis souri, Stanley of Kansas, and Duncan of North Carolina. Wiring from Spokane, Nicholas Mur ray Butler requested that his name be withdrawn in connection with the se lection of a temporary chairman, say ing: "Commencements at Columbia uni versity will prevent my attendance on the opening day." VILLA, BEATEN BY CARRANZA'S MEN, IS FLEEING (Continued From Page One.) it was preventing the arrival of any news from the battlefield. Wo Word Prom Battle. The train, dispatcher of the Mexico Northwestern railroad, located near where the fighting was reported as oc curring, said he had received no word since last night. It was not ascer tained whether the wires have been cut or whether Carranzista officials are withholding Information. In- order to trap Villa if he escaped the central American column. General Pershing sent squadrons of cavalry toward Habrlcora and Carmen on either side of Namlqulpa. One of them should be within striking dis tance of Villa today or tomorrow. several aeroplanes accompanying the expedition spent the night near Ascencion, within a few hours flight of Kamiquipa, possibly to assist the reinforcements in locating Villa, general uavira pointed to the bat- Washing Won't Rid Head of Dandruff The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve It, then you de stroy it entirely.

Gavira intimated that the American expedition had established Its base of operations near Casas Grandee. Re ports that the garrison there was going to Juarez were unconfirmed. Kven if large bodies of Carranzistas placed themselves between . the American ex pedition and the border, it was pointed out that thousands of soldiers at Fort Bliss and Columbus were ample protec tion against the Implied threat. There is no sign of friction between de facto government troops and Americans. About T000 U. Troops Cross Idas. It was reported that in return for President Wilson's aid at the battle of Agua Prieta, Carranza would permit the United States to use Mexican rail roads for military purposes- There was no confirmation of this from Queretaro, the temporary capital. American troops are continuing to march into Mexico from Columbus. The number now pursuing Villa is up wards of 7000. Zl Paso Thrilled by Hew. The news of tne fighting sent a thrill through El Paso last night such as had not been experienced since the last time Juarez was taken. First a wireless leak told that Persh ing had reported to Funston that Car ranzistas had engaged Villa at Las Cruces and defeated him. Then General Gavlera. commander of the Juarez garrison, began getting messages over the Mexican federal telegraph lines. The Information was only fragment ary during the first hours. At 6:30 o'clock Mexican Consul Andres Garcia rushed breathlessly into the Interna tional News Service bureau with this dispatch: "Colonel Cano engaged Villa in bat tle at Namiqujpa. district of Guerrero, Chihuahua. Hard fighting started at 4:30 o'clock." General Pershing's first wireless to General Funston was sent from Gal eana. He is believe? to have been working south when couriers from the Carranzistas brought news of the , fighting. It Is evident that he did not expect Villa to stand and fight, as he has done at Namlqulpa. This theory is based on the disposition of United States troops in an effort to entrap the bandit. One detachment was sent to Carmen on the Rio Carmen, which is east and considerably to the north. These men are believed by army strategists here to have been recalled. nylng Squadron Bear yighting. The flying squadron which started for El Valle Is moving In a direct line south for- Namlqulpa. The distance to be covered is near ly 30 miles, but the roads are good and they should have been within range of the fighting by midnight. The dispatching of a strong detach ment along the trail to Babicora In dicates that General Pershing was ful ly informed of the intention of Villa to go in that direction. This detach ment is believed to run a better chance of getting a shot at the bandit (.nd his army than any of the others. Yesterday General GavTera's infor mation placed a part of the American advance at Cumbre, the point near which the Cumbre tunnel disaster oc curred. This is just 120 miles south west of Columbus, the starting point. Another, force was at Alamo, 10 miles south in a straight line from Galeana and 110 miles from the bor der. Alamo Is on the Santa Maria river, 30 miles east of the railroad. The guard of the American force was at Casas Grandes, 100 miles south of the border. Pears for Carranza Garrison. Thr is a Carranza garrison at Santa Aha, 25 miles south of Naml qulpa. As the column of Vlllistas from the south which reinforced their chieftain at Namlqulpa, came over this route, some apprehension is felt about them. It is certain that they either ran away or Joined the Vil lista column. Pavlowa Traveling On a Special Train Six Standard Sleepers, Six Bars?

Hill, veteran railroad build er, Is said to be one of those who will represent the big railroad Interests who are going to help finance the Pacific International Livestock exopsitlon at North Portland this year. Preparations are being made to make this show a record breaker and for that reason more money must be secured. The two biggest breeders' associations have come forward with unusually lib eral contributions and express them selves in no uncertain terms regarding the Importance of the Portland show as a national institution.

The coming show will cost approxi mately 10,000, and about half of this money has already been secured. Owing to the Interest that state banks have In the livestock industry, It Is expected that practically every bank in the state will contribute finan cially toward the coming international. General Manager Plummer will at once get into communication with them. Two Women Sought As Counterfeiters Federal Secret Service Officers Tjook for Woman Who Vanished When Men Were Taken.

Oakland. Cal.. March 21. (P. N. S.) A government railroad from SI Paso or some other border city to, the Pan ama canal Is one of the great military necessities of the United States, and will ultimately come, in the opinion of Brigadier General William I. Slbert, U. S. A. General Slbert spoke on the need and Importance of the canal's defenses be fore the Oakland Chamber of Com merce. "This country will have to operate railroads through .Mexico and the Cen tral American republics for military purposes, so that we will be able to transport supplies and - men to the canal zone without depending entirely upon sea lanes," he said. He declared that the canal was by far the most valuable outlying posses sion of the United States, and it was the plain duty of the country to take adequate steps to protect it. He said the canal was of the greatest strategical importance, and like all such points, would be the first objec tive of an enemy. For that reason, it would have to be doubly guarded and defended by every means known to military science, of which a strategi cal railroad is one of the most im portant. Besides needing some great volun teer force, he declared, for the country, we need a permanent" force for the protection of the canal and Honolulu.

To Destroy Guns; Will SeU Watches Deputy District Attorney Pierce has figured out a way to legally dispose of the. guns and watches and trinkets that hava been taken from the bodies of suicides end unknown dead persons in the course of the last 20 or 30 years and placed In the custody rt the county treasurer. The stuff has been accumulating until County' Treasurer John Lewis wants to get rid of It. The law provides that valuables taken from . unclaimed ; dead bodies shall be turned. " over to the county treasurer to- be. sold, the proceeds be placed in a trust fund for the benefit of the estates of such persons. Mr. Pierce has decided It would be lgal to hare the stuff, except the guns, appraised as a whole and offered for sal i ' As the city ordinances pro hibit the sale of firearms except by permit of the chief of police. Mr. Pierce holds it would be legal to destroy the guns. County Treasurer Lewis probably will proceed along this line.
