Military men here consider that the

have been driven far south of the

The line of bandit retreat lies di

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

President Wilson, it was acknowl
edged; was moved to make these rep
resentations to General Carransa by
a spltlt of conciliation and accommo
dation, but desired to impress upon
the Mexican first chief that there were
influences in the United States in
favor of intervention.
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

FUNSTON ASKS COAST
ARTILLERY TO PERMIT
WIDE USE OF CAVALRY
San Antonio. 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
