and photographic evidence, with as
perfect an alibi as was ever offered
in this court, proves Hint Hillings and
Mooney nl that hour were nowhere

"Tell me if McDonald, on the far

WASHINGTON, Sept. .--Secretary
Raker let it be known today that
the war department was not dispos
ed to accept as accurate the report
of Villa's raid on Chihuahua City last
Saturday transmitted by Brigadier
General Rell yesterday on tbe
strength of Information that hud
reached him in Kl Paso.
"We have no military information
as to renewed Vlllista activities," Mr.
(taker said, indicating that it was as
sumed that General Hell's account
was based upon rumor and reports
current in border towns and not facts
obtained through army channels in
Mexico. Ho declined to discuss In
any way what effect the reappearance
of Villa, If it were confirmed, might
have on the movement of American
troops in Mexico. .
So far as Is known tbe war depart
ment has made no effort to learn
from General Hell the sources of his
information. General runston is ex
pected to transmit promptly without
additional instructions any authentic
news of the activities of the bandits
upon which any change In plan involv
ing General Per.dilng's expedition
might be founded.
