TALE OF VILLA'S DEATH A HOAX,
SAYSFUNSTON; HUNT GOES ON
Continued from T&xtt One
Satevo must have been necessary, tie
Assumed that they had not returned to
Parral,
The Intent reports received by Genera!
Funston, In which mention was made of
Villa, gavo the bandit's location as In the
rtotlntalns north and wes of Parral. Of
ficers here were convinced that he did
not succeed In getting as far south as
the Chlhuahua-Durango State line.
SUPPOSED BODY OP VILLA
. IS "DELAYED1' IK TRANSIT
EL PASO, Tex., April 18. Only
Villa's head may be brought back for
Jdcntiflcation, according to Carrahza
Consul Garcia today. He said that
the- probably decomposed condition of
the body, and the fact that the rough
mountain trails were 30 or more miles
from the grave to the, nearest rail
road, might render removal of the
corpse difficult. ' Garcia said he had
no further news regarding the body,
but saw no reason to change hts be
lief that it really was Villa's.
EIj PASO. Tex., April 18. Advices here
state that the body, supposed to be that
of Pancho Villa, was on Its way to Chi
huahua City, but owing to the Ions wagon
road from San Francisco Borjas, where
the grave was found, It might bo tomor
row before It reached Its destination.
It has been suggested that the body
might bo that of Pablo Lopez, butcher of
Hanta Vsabel. Ofllclals here are "watch
fully waiting."
Oenernl Gavlra said today lie had talked
further with the San Antonio, Chihuahua,
telegrapher, obtaining additional details of
the location of Villa's body. According
to the operator, General Cavazos and Col
onel Carlos Carranza and their troops
were at Cuslhulrlachlc last Saturday when
they received word that a detachment of
bandits was operating nearby. They en
gaged the bandits and captured a number
of prisoners, besides killing or wounding
many others,
Among the prisoners, said tho oper
ator was a Vltllsta colonol, who, on be
ing Informed of his probable execution,
begged for his life, and promised, If ho
were spared, to reveal the grave of Villa.
Cavazos and Carranza were taken then
by the prisoner to San Francisco Barjas,
where they were shown a grave from
which tho body was then exhumed by
their men. The Vllllsta colonel said his
chief had been dead about two weeks.
The confidence of Mexican ofTlciiils here
and In Juarez that Villa Is dead has not
diminished, outwardly at least. It was
pointed out that if the body had been
brought to Cuslhulrlachlc It might take
the better part of a day to transport It
from there to Chihuahua City.
AMERICAN SAW VILLA.
Charles Itlckcrson,, on American who
owns mining properties In the Guerrero
district, arrived at the border and de
clared ho had seen Villa two weeks ogo In
a ranch house near Cuslhulrlachlc. Villa's
leg was badly swollen, Itlckcrson said,
and ho was suffering much. The bullet
had entered tho knee through a pair of
soiled trousers, and tho natlvo doctor
whom Villa had forced to go along with
his band declared the Infection had been
Injected into the wound from a particle
of soiled cloth and had spread through
out Vllla'n body, causing him to have a
high fever.
If Villa Is dead his body will be burled
In the "Potters' Field" of tho old municipal
cemetery In Juarez, without honors,
priest, Hags or firing squad, declares Gen
eral Gavlra. Tho body would bo thrown
Into the shallow Jjravo, Gavlra said, back
of tho old church where Villa had his
shootlpg ground when he ruled Northern
liexico as 11 aicinior. mere, against me
Mood-stained and bUIIet-plttcd adobe wall
I'llla murdered more than 400. When he
oolc Juarez Villa shot all tho ofllcers
lere. Again, when ho discovered a plot
his garrison, he marched men out In
platoons to bo shot.
CARRANZA AYAITS, U. S: WAITS,
IN PARLEY ON EVACUATION
WASHINGTON. April 18. General
Carranza, until he receives a formal reply,
' Is inclined to stand pat on his suggestion
that United States troopa withdraw, u
message to the State Department from
IConsul Rodgers at Mexico City today In
dicated, I lodgers reported the de facto
government was disinclined to discuss the
matter further, pending the arrival of tho
expected reply. General Carranza expects
to remain in the capital several days, he
said.
The. United States army report on the
flght at Parral. differing greatly from
that forwarded by General Carranza, has
been sent to the latter, through Consul
Rodgers. No Instructions have been given
Rodgers to make representations, how
ever. No Jlght on whether Villa Is alive or
dead was furnished today by either War
ot State Department reports. It was ex
plained that the town of Borjas, mentioned
In War Department dlspatchesyesterday
as the supposed location of Villa, Is south
of Parral, whereas the Borjas at which
Villa's death was reported to have oc
curred is north.
General Pershing's trail after Villa may
take a new course. A high army man,
discussing Funston's suggestion for rein
forcements if the hunt Is to go farther
south, said today;
"Why should we go farther south? It
seems to me we ought to have a trail
from which to work, and why should It
not be north or some other direction?"
Funston, it was said, had not suggested
to the War Department that he desired to
extend his line southward. In some quar
ters. It was believed that the Administra
tion did not desire to proceed on the
present trail farther and that the chase
might now take a different slant.
No troop movement orders were Issued
today. If the- lines are to be strength
ened, Funston could strip present border
.garrisons of a few men. but he has not
tiuftlcient forties wherewith to make any
I considerable reinforcement.
CARRANZA ISSUES EXPULSION

April 8 Secretary of Foreign Affairs
! Acuna today sent Instructions to the Gov
ernors or all Mexican States rigidly to
apply Article S3 of the Constitution, pro
Vidlngfqr the expulsion of foreigners who
Aid the enemies of the Constitutionalist
Government.
"You are hereby Instructed to apply
Article 33 of the Constitution of the Re

Secretary Acunaa message.
MEXICANS SEIZE SUPPLY
TRAIN, SAYS WORD TO FUNSTON
SAN ATrONlO. Ter., April 18. Major
GtneraJ Funston has ordered the Ameri
can commander at Fort Bliss, El Paso,
to investigate the reported seizure by Car
raruistus of a tralnload of supplies for
United States troops shipped Into 'Mexico
over the Mexican-Central Railway.
It 1 understood here that Carranza of.
j ficials sire now doing everything possible
to prevent the Americans obtaining supi
TDites.General' Funston is now In pos-
aesatan of complete information ay to the
fituaUuii south of the border
' The iattle Xt Parral fd General Car-
:
"anza's demand .for withdrawal of the
American troops' In Mexico have enor
mously Increased tho difficulties that have
confronted the punitive expedltfon ever
since It crossed the border Into Mexico.
Carranza officials have apparently taken
the withdrawal demand as their cue for
abandoning pledges of co-operation. This
Is evidenced by Information received at
Fort Bliss that n tralnload of fodder for
the American cavalry horses shipped from
Juarez to Chihuahua City over the Mexi
can Central was seized by the Mexican
authorities on Saturday.
The military authorities have begun an
Investigation of the alleged seizure, but It
Is believed that the American authorities
cannot recover the confiscated hay and
oats because It was shipped to merchants
In Chihuahua,
Rumors of an antl-Amerlcnn outbreak
at Casus Grandes were also unconfirmed
today. Messages which General Gavlra,
the Carranza commander at Juarez, said
he had received, stated that trouble had
artien between Mexican civilians and the
United States troops yesterday, but he
was Unnble to give any details. In this
connection, however, It was recalled that
the first reports of the Parral battle, as
sent by Mexicans, told of a clash between
"citizens of Parral" and the American
soldiers.
It wag not until several days later that
It was definitely established that Car
ranza troops had participated In the at
tack on Major Tompkins' force. Many
American colonists aro residents of Casas
Grandes, and the American troops were
received enthusiastically when they nr
rlvcd there. Even the Mexican1) greeted
them cordially, because they aro able to
pay for their supplies with American gold.
PERSHING AT NAMIQUIPA;
DETAILS OF PAItltAL THICK
WITH TUB ARMY IN MEXICO, April
1G (via wireless to Columbus, N. M., April
18). General Pershing arrived today nt
his field headquarters near Namlqulpa
after nn all-night ride from Satevo, for a
conferenco with members of his staff.!,
Men In Pershing's command brought
details of the Parral fight of April 12,
which placed the matter In tho light of a
deliberate attack by Carranzlsta soldiers
even possibly of an attempt to annihilate
the little force of 114 cavalrymen under
Major Tompkins.
After one of his men had been killed
Tompkins mado up his mind that If hts
command was going to be slaughtered
they would die fighting. He "cut loose,",
as one of Pershing's men said, and tlio
Mexicans soon ictrcatcd, leaving more
than 40 dead on the field.
Tompkins held his men In restraint
until he noticed on nn adjacent hill In
Parral a body of soldiers 'over whom tho
Mexican flag was flying.
In answer to Tompkins' question Gen
eral Lozango, a Carranza officer, who led
the American column Into the city, told
him that the troops on tho hill were part
of the garrison watching the movements
of tho Americans with Intent to guard
them.
Just then the so-called guard fired a
volley Into tho American detachment, kill
ing one trooper.
The enormous crowd of Mexicans, mado
up largely of Carranza soldiers, had sur
rounded tho Unltod States troops.
Previously thero had been little shoot
ing, which Tompkins thought wns In wel
come to the Americans, He had been met
by Lozango, who promised a welcome and
a camping place. A noncommissioned ofll
cer dashed up to Tompkins nnd reported
that thp Americans had been fired on and
a number of them wounded. Tompkins
flsked Lozango for nn explanation, but he
scorned mystified, afterward asking Tomp
kins to get his men out of the city Imme
diately. Lozango offered to guide the
Americans to safety, but Tompkins, fear
ing a. trap, formed, a Plan of his own.
A squad of eight skirmishers was
thrown out at tho head of tho retreating
American column seeking to find an easy
'defense. The mobs grew larger. Rifle
and pistol fire at the Americans became
Incessant. Then followed the Incident of
the so-called Carranza guard on the hill
and the reply of tho Americans.
Tompkins retired to Santa Cruz, where
he dug himself In and awaited reinforce
ments. These soon began to arrive from
all directions, a command under Colonel
Allen making a phenomenal march to tho
scone. Colonel Brown and Major Howzo
led the other reinforcing detachments

PRESIDENT WILL SIGN
WASHINGTON, April t8. Despite the
bitter nssaults of the antlmllltla Senators,
headed by Senator Borah, It was con
sidered certain today that the Chamber
lain army bill, Increasing the regular
army, providing "for Federal pay for Na
tional Guard officers and men, nnd creat
ing a volunteer army, will be passed by
the Senate before adjournment tonight
As soon as the bill Is passed an effort will
be made to reconcile the provisions of It
and the Hay bill, already passed by the
House, and the substitute measure then
will be rushed through both Houses nnd
sent to the President for his signature.
Regulnr army officers are extremely
bitter over tho militia pay provision of the
two bills, tho one feature that Is con
sidered certain to remain In any bill. They
have no hesitancy In condemning the
proposition ns "the moit gigantic pork
barrel ever devised in Washington," nnd
they frankly insist that the proposed plan
will give the national gunrd association
control of the regular army nnd eventually
mean that the latter will be reduced to
a skeleton,
These officers declare that If the mltitta
pay plan Is continued it will bo nn In
ducement for legular aimy ofllcers to re
sign their commissions nnd lake up now
ones In tho gunrd
"A regular officer would bo a fool to
stny In tho army," explained a staff of
ficer today. "Instead ho could Join tho
militia, probably getting Increased rank,
would bo paid a nice sum for his work
thero nnd could cngago In private work In
addition. Furthermore a mllltla officer
can quit whenever ho pleases, would not
havo to go to war unless he wanted to and
could live In a placo of his own selection
not subject to transfer."
It Is c-tlmatcd that tho pay provision
wilt cot tho Government $75,000,000 an
nually and the regulars Insist that there
will bo no real return for tho expenditure.
They claim that Instead of having at tho
end of 10 years a real army In tho guard
only about 25 per cent. . the men who
have drawn pay would go to the front.
