MORE TROOPS Will CROSS INTO MEXICO Barta Pitr«l ti Bi Brm M ti Struttili Ptrslut Washington. April 10. Such a marked improvement In conditions along the Mexican border has been reported by General Funston that the War Department is now cunsal- ering drawing upon some of the troops stationed in Texas to strength en the everlengthening lines of com munication of the expidition seeking Villa. Many alarming rumors have been disposed <>f. and the border situation generally is said to be quiet er than heretofore, but the plan is not to disturb the garrison* or pa trol in New Mexico or Arizona for the present. Army official* said tonight that from now on infantry would lx- usrd to reinforce the communication line*, the cavalry being kept at the front for the actual work of running down the outlaws. A part of the Twenty fourth Infantry, negroe*. withdrawn from l)el Rio. Texas, at the request of the local authoritie* after one of the soldier* had been kill«*»! bv a ran ger attempting to arrest him, already has liren ordered into Mexico. Evidence continued to accumalate today to refute rumors of an imnen ind withdrawal of the American ex- pidition. Soon after it was known that additional troops were to be sent across the border, the War De partment announced the purchase of six large tank motor trucks to re place similar machine* now rented to carry gasoline for General Persh ing's supply motor* and aeroplane*. State Ih-parlment dispatches indi cate that the Carranza authorities arc viewing with some anxiety the continued presence of American sol diers in Mexico ami are inclined to believe that the opject of the expe dition ha* been accomplished in the dispersal of Villa’s main command. It is authoritatively said, however, that there haa been no suggestion front the de facto government as to a ‘ dead line,” beyond which the American troops should not go. or as to a date on which they should be withdrawn. Cinti Curt Orel On Thursday of last week. County Judge Mcknight and County Com missioners Butler and Irvine were over to look after two project*. One was to look after the trasability of establishing a ferry near the rail road bridge across the North San- tiam. and the other was to replace the bridge across the creek or branch on the road leading to the fair grounds in the southeast part of town. The Tribune understands that the eourta of Linn and Marion counties have agreed to establish the ferry, which will be free, a* soon as prac ticable. The Linn county court had about decided to replace the bridge in the southeast part of town with a large cement culvert. Garbai Fir Cniriss The call for Hon.
