ITOLKEWCTATOR
OF MEXICO IN 30 DAYS,"
I, WARNS PANCHO VILLA
Outlaw Chief Reported to Bo
Gathering Forces Readily as
Carranzistas Desert De
Facto Troops Beaten
TREVINO .QUITS CHIEF
Eli TASO, Tex., July 13. "Within 30
days, I, Francisco Villa, will bo dictator of
Mexico tolth n victorious army nt my back.
"Don Ventistlano Carranzn, stripped of
hlR power nnd deserted by his generals,
Viil be deposed."
This defiant boast of tho Mexican bandit
leader waa transmlted today to his atrents
on the border. Through them It reached
Arnerlcan oftlclala and was resarded of
mifllclent Importance to be forwarded to
Washington. It was a flat defiance of tho
United Slates Government General rcrsh
lns'a punltlvo expedition was sent Into
Moxlco to "Bet" Villa, Its work was balked
by the attack on American soldiers at
Parral. Now Villa proclaims his strength.
Every report that has reached El I'aso
and other points alontr the border during
tho last twenty-four hours Indicated that
Villa had been successful In all engage
ments with the Carranzlsta army Blnce he
began his latest activities. With tho fear
that ho seems to be ablo to lnsplro In the
heart of the Mexican peon ho has gathered
around him an army that Is estimated to
number between 6000 nnd 8000 men. A
lato report Is that 3000 Yaqul Indians from
tho Sonora district aro on their way to
Join tho outlaw's forces.
Ttestorday tho Mexican ofTlclals reported
that General Ernesto Garcia had sallied
from Parral to drive back the Vllllstas.
Today tho Mexican officials maintained a
dlsa-jet sllenco nnd this was taken as a
sure sign that Garcia hnd been whipped.
The samo thing occurred, within tho last
week when 3000 Carranzlsta cavalry wero
tent ngalnst General Callxto Contreras. fe'o
far aa official Information la concerned that
force completely disappeared.
American government agents came Into
possession of additional evidence that seems
to provo that Villa Is being aided by the
, treason of Carranza officers. One uncon
firmed rumor that camo to tho border was
that General Jacinto Trevlno had been
ordered relieved of his command at Chi
bunhua City, had bargained with rebel
leaders and had gono over to Villa's army.
RED CROSS PLANS TO AID

th'o Southeastern Pennsylvania Chapter, nnd
Dr. Richard H. Harte, chairman of tho Ex

Plan to Make Philadelphia
a Centre
The Grocers and Importers' Exchange In
tho Bourse, representing tho wholesale
grocery Interests of this city nnd Its vicin
ity, has begun a "preparedness" movement
to mako Philadelphia and other largo cities
the centres for the distribution of food sup
plies for troops In tho event of war. Under
the control of the Commissary Department
of tho United States Army, tho exchange
would make Philadelphia a great depot for
tho food products of Pennsylvania, Mary
land, New Jersey and Delaware. It further
plans to co-ordinato tho wholesale grocers,
commission men and commercial organiza
tions, forming a "machine" by which food
supplies could bo gathered and shipped to
armies In tho field.
The first step of tne committee, accord
ing to Mr. 1'oore, will be to draw up a
tentative plan of preceduro and to place
It before the Government, since each depot
would be a branch of the Commissary De

PHILADELPHIANS OFF
TO PATROL BORDER
Two Battalions May See Lively
Service in Big Bend
Country
I3L PASO, Tex., July 13. Parts of the
2d Bnttallon, 2d Pennsylvania Infantry,
Including the Philadelphia command, and
the 3d Battalion, 10th Pennsylvania in
fantry, made a quiet departure last night
for tho "Big Bend" country. The start was
mado nt night to give the men rest on board
the train to prepare them for a wholo day's
marching south of Marfa, Tex., where they
will detrain.
Tho 6th Pennsylvania Infantry, 4th Bri
gade, arrived at 151 Pa?o yesterday at noon,
nnd the 4th nnd 8th Regiments aro expected
to arrlvo this morning.
Only a few persons greeted the soldiers
who marched to tho train last night nnd
prepared to leavo T31 PnBO after only a few
days camping here. Those who were at the
depot to see tho men off only nonchalantly
Inquired where they wero going. There was
no cheering or other patriotic demonstration
ever tho departure of tho first national
guardsmen assigned to active duly on the
border slnco tho mllltla movement began.
Mnrfa Is tho destination of tho two battal
ions, but how far south they will march to
permanent headquarters Is not known.
The placing of tho Pennsylvania troops
closo to tho sceno of posslbllo activities Is
considered quite a tribute to Pennsylvania
National Guardsmen. It perhaps means
they wero tho best Uttcd for active servico
tin tho border among tho mllltla of other
Eastern nnd Northern States.
This group of guardsmen from Pennsyl
vania Is being Eent to tho "Big Bend" coun
try, ostensibly to be ready for a possible
nttack by Vllla'n forces In that section. In
tho past the wnstclcss "Big Bend" country
had been tho scene of moro than one raid
by Mexicans. Tho movement .of tho 2d nnd
3d Battalions Is significant In connection
with the wnrnlng of Carranza to the United
Stntcs to bo prepared for an nttack by tho
Vllllstas on tho border of tho "Big Bend"
country.
Tho 2d Battalion, 2d Regiment, Is In com
mand of Major John Handy Hall. The 3d
Rnttntlon of tho 10th Is commanded by
Major Henry W. Coulter.
Tho Pennsylvania 13nglnecr8' Battalion,
Company A, of Scrntiton, nnd B, of Phila
delphia, completed their task of laying out
tho new camp, Stewart, on Tuesday. Camp
Stewart Is now prepared to caro for 12,000
men. It Is a second Mount Gretna. The
First Pennsylvania Cavalry was the first
to scttlo In Camp Stewart.
Wind has raised a small havoc In Camp
Pershing nnd Camp Stowait, both In tho
vicinity of Fort Bliss. A windstorm blew
down several tents In the Eighteenth Penn
sylvania Infantry enenmpment.
Tho Pennsylvania engineers claim to bo
tho best-drilled guardsmen of the Pennsyl
vania, delegation at Camp Pershing and
Camp Stewart. They havo been having
drilN of four hours In tho morning ami two
hours in tho afternoon dnlly.

El Paso Chronicle
NATIONAL GUARD PENNSYLVANIA.
United Stntes Army, Camp Pershing, El
Paso, Tex., July 13.
Sam Hearn, of the 3d Regiment, felt a
great responsibility resting on him. Nearly
at El Paso and tho mascot ho had collected
on tho trip a pure-bred mongrel pup had
disappeared from the troop train. Tho boys
of his company the "bull gang" blamed
him.
Hence he gazed pensively from the mesa
across the Rio Grande and wished ho was
away In tho mountains of Mexico, far. far
away. Tho mountains stretched like pieces
of mildewed cheese that had been chewed
at by snaggle-toothed men. Tho company
would go to tho dogs If ho didn't get the
boys another dog, or something else.

Even as tho thought struck him, a per
fectly good mascot In tho porson of a fat
pig wandered through the sagebrush, evi
dently looking for a juicy glla monster for
dinner. Quick ns a flash Sam Hearn went
after that pig and would havo had him,
too, If a beven-foot Mexican hadn't just
grown right out of a clump of bushes and
barred tho way.
"Clgarlllo bombrcro!" he screamed. "My
pig!"
"Oh," said .Sam. "Is that a pig? I thought
It was a wild rabbit. Sure enough, it Is a
pig. Now, wouldn't that Jar you? Who
would have thought It was a pig? It cer
tainly was stupid of mo. I beg your par
don, senor. I was chasing what I thought
was a rabbit, but was mistaken. I hope
there was no offense."
The senor. who probably was descended
from a Spanish grandee, an Indian chief
and an African king, was not to be outdone
in politeness.
"SI, si. O. IC." ho said, bowing. And be
fore the pig owner left Sam had borrowed
a cigarette from him. As Sam smoked the
black tobacco ho resumed his despondent
musing He'd be there yet if mess call
hadn't sounded,

Personal Notes and Comment on Events of Camp
Life That Reflect Conditions Among
Citizen Soldiers
And still they come theso meRsngei
from tho boys of tho 2d Regiment, 1st
Brigade, Pennsylvania National Guard.
Philadelphia Inds have not forgotten tha
folks back home. Even In the hurry nnd
hustle of camp life, they havo time to send
notes home to those they left behind.
Hero nro n few of them:
Tell the folks back homo that Company
F of the 2d Regiment, of the 1st Brigade,
has the best llttlo bugler In the regiment.
Ho Is no other than Edmond Ilrnmbley,
4026 Ocrmnntown nvenue. Ho Is tho small

2d Regiment, 1st Brigade.
There Is a Ind In tho 2d Regiment of
Iho 1st llrlgado who Is having tho time of
his life trying to wash with mosuulto net

Intentions of the best, decided to send him

rag, and went forth to purchnso one. Mo
iiulto netting wan the first thing said per

TO INCLUDE THIS CITY
IN CANAL DEFENSE PLAN
Congressman Moore Assured of
Amendment to Naval Ap
propriation Bill
Du rt Rtaff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, July 13. Assurancet
havo been received by Representative J.
Hampton Moore, of Philadelphia, that tho
naval appropriation 1)111 will bo so amended
In the Senate as to authorise the Secretary
of War and Secretary of tho Navy to devlso
specific plans for tho Improvement of har
bors nnd connecting channels along tho
coasts for the operation of tho fleet. As
provided In tho Senate Naval Committee,
tho bill calls for Improvement plans bo ns
to protect the harbors of Portland, Boston,
Providence, Now London, Bridgeport, New
York, Norfolk nnd ports further south by
uso of Intcrcoastal cnnals.
Congressman Moore took tho matter up
with Senator Wlllnrd Saulsbury, of Dela
ware, who han promised to present an
amendment to Include Philadelphia, Cam
den nnd Wilmington In the provision.
"For a long time," said Representative
Mooro today, "we havo been contending
that tho Federal Government should tnko
over tho Delawaro nnd Chesapeake Canal,
nnd other Blmtlnr waterways connecting
Atlantic coast harbors, so that the water
ways could bo deepened and Improved to
accommodate our big naval vessels. In
that way tho flcot could work along the
coast from ono city to another as they
nocded protection, without exposing them
solves on the high ecas. Tho provision In
tho Sonato bill Is a long step In our direc
tion." River Dragged for Body of Missing Man
