British Columbia , Colony to Open Up Xarge Bamber of Easterners Expected to Settle in Salmon Biver District, It Is Said. A new colony In the Salmon river district of British Columbia will be opened by the government of that province on June 20. The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, on whose lln the colony will be. is now arranging for excursions which will be com menced shortly. Large numbers of easterners are expected to settle in the new colony, which consists of 41.360 acres. Thu is sufficient for 196 homesteader. Germans, will, however, be excluded. Already four cars of settlers' ef fects have arrived at Prince Oeorgo. the Salmon river district being Juai north of that city. Other cars are now on the way, and according to re ports received by the railway there is likely to be a considerable rush for homesteads. The settlement will be officially opened by the government of British Columbia J- ;ie 20. at the government land office at Prince Oeorge. The land Is level and more oten than any now available in British Columbia,; The country Is rich In all kinds of grains and grasses, it being possible to harvest three crops of al ia! fa yearly. Settlers who take up homesteads this year will probably devote their time to clearing and possibly some vegetables will be grown. Next, year. irowever. mixea xarming is expected to be taken up and developed to a considerable extent. It is proposed to locate settlers nr different nationalities, facilities being provided for them to come from all parts of Canada, but it Is probable that,-a large number will be Menna nites.

In addition the Glenn Springs raiders have been driven far south of the river. The line of bandit retreat lies di rectly In the path of 100 Carransa troops reported advancing from Sierra Modjada. It is likely that the raid ers will be encountered by this orce. When the American forces reach the Rio Grande it Is supposed they will halt and establish a permanent camp, from which they will patrol the Big Bend region east and west of Boquillas. A fleet of 27 automobile trucks was being loaded here today with food and forage for the base camp at Boquillas. They will go south tomorrow morning. Building material for the construc tion of permanent quarters Is due to arrive here next week from San An tonio. Marathon will continue to be the base of supplies of the troops operat ing out of Boquillas. Thirty or 40 Carranxa troops have arrived at the Mexican town of Bo quillas with a report that they are the vanguard of a large force from central Coahuila towns.

War department officials explained today General Funston's action in withdrawing part of General Pershing's expeditionary army to patrol the Mexi can border as a precautionary measure to guard against -further bandit raids into American territory. Withdrawal Orders Hot Sent. Secretary Baker made It plain, how ever, that no orders had been sent to General Funston to withdraw troops from Mexico. No report was received from General Funston today with reference to the withdrawal of the- Sixth cavalry from interior Mexico to Columbus. War de partment officials Insisted,- however, that this Is only an Isolated troop movement. Colonel Sibley, In Joint coraamnd with Major Langhorne of the second punitive expedition sent into Mexico after the Glenn Springs and Boquillas raids, reported to the war department today that he is preparing to with draw his forces to the border. Colonel Sibley reported that his work was done .and that the Glenn Springs raid ers were dispersed. Militia of Bo Benefit. Reports to the war department from General Funston show that the Texas, Arizona and New Mexico militia or ganizations have been of no use what ever to General Funston thus far. Although they were called out 11 days ago, the militia has not been mobilized and it will be four days at least before they can be utilized to ,j " ithe border patrol.

Texas, May 20. (1. N. S.) Motor trucks, big ones, with big beds into which can be crowded 25 or SO infantrymen, are to be used along the border wherever the roads will permit it, as a part of the new scheme of protection against raids of Mexi cans. General Funston has asked for four trucks of that type to be sent to Nogales and he wants more for other points. General Funston also asked the war department today for more companies of coast artillery. He did not specify the number, but he pointed out the necessity . for still more troops to guard the border. It Is General Funston's plan to use the additional coast artillery com panies. If he gets them, as garrisons at the towns and Important crossings along the Rio Grande. This will leave all the cavalry free for use in actual patrol In remoter regions. Also In many places the coast ar tillerymen, serving as Infantry, can be hurried to a threatened point by motor trucks. General 'Funston was somewhat ap palled today to learn that the length of the Big Bend of the Rio Grande, Including all its windings. Is 390 miles. A bandit tight patrol of such stretches of border Is almost impossi ble and luck will have to be with the n .
