Border reports that Cnrranza forces were mobilizing and threatening arn ed teslstanue to the American expedition were declared by ofllclala to be somewhat exaggerated. While not assured that Car ranza's troops would co-operate In the Villa hunt. It was confidently believed they would not be ordered to oppose the United States troopers. Tho United States forces may finally be much larger than originally planned. It was hinted today. The three expeditions tentatively agreed on. It Is said, from Co lumbus, El Paso nnd Douglas or Hachita, may be swelled to 1S.0Q0 men. It was believed certain th.e main, expe dition would drive south from Columbus, headed by Pershing, This Is the most dl rect route as the crow files and over a splendid trail. Six miles opposite, at Las Palomas, 1500 Carranza troops were re ported waiting whether to Join or oppose the Americans was not known. Carranza, troops 'were today showing more activity In northern Mexico and near the border than for months past. A concentration of Carranzlstas was taking place at Nacozarl, 75 miles south of Douglas. Information received from Chihuahua City was that a detachment of 500 cavalrymen had left for the Casas Grander and Galeqni. districts' to protect American Mormon colonists and attempt to cut Villa's flight in that direction. General Canuto Reyes and 3500 men, accoidlng to another report were said to be In the Torreon region endeavoring tq Join forces with Vlllai Reyes has under him a good part of the former Vlllista troops, who cut their way through the Carranza ynes and inarched almost up to the gates of Mexico City during the height pf the Vlllista rebellion against Carranza'8 rule, Rodolfo Flerrero, Villa's butcher, sev eral ttmea reported killed. Is now reported to be a member of Reyes' column. No direct news has come from the 500 men, women and children I,-, the Mormon colonies since Sunday OIHclals of the Church In Kl Paso state today that the absence of reports from them Indicated no disaster had overtaken the colonists. Brigadier General John J.

Judges Darratt and Davis In tho J.lcenio Court refused to hear remonstrances collected by the No-License League of Gcminntown In nn effort to rid tho 22d Ward of saloons on the ground they were "not nec essary." Tho court's refusal was based on the statement that tbcro was no Jurisdiction, and that unless specific remonstrances al leging a violation of tho law on tho pait of saloon owners was presented to tho court. It had not tho power to refuso to renew the license. Walter L. Sheppaid, attorney for the 3770 residents of Gormnntown who had signed remonstrances ngalnst 5 of tho saloons there, argueil for an hour against City Solicitor Connelly nnd M. J. Mc Knery. who represented the saloon proprie tors. In behalf of the signers' right to have the remonstrances heard. The argu ments and Mr Sheppard's explanations to the Judges were warm at times. After the court declined to hear the remon strances, Mr Sheppard asked for tho fil ing of a memorandum setting forth the reasons for the refusal, so that the case could be appealed to the Superior Court. This was also contested. The Gennantown league had been work ing for more than a month In the belief that a great remonstrance against re. licensing the saloons there would carry weight with the court.
