First. Hie bandits ure able to travel much faster titan the American army, it is necessary for the army to wait on provisions and other supplies, while tiie bandits steal their provis ions along the path of their flight. Secoud, Villa is now in the Parral section, where ho is among friends Tho third reason, according to Mr tfnppdldl. is that Villa 1ms almost reached tho mc tintai ns where he ld I sure to find a h?.~?r<: biding place, j The bandit chief'hag operated a mun- j ber of times in this r>e?'tlon.of thc mountains, and, according to . Mr. iluppodlt. he is familiar with every trail and path. Mr. Iluppodlt be lieves that tho United States troops must either withdraw in the near fu ture without attaining their purpose, or elsy right the whole of Mexico. lie thinks that war with the south ern republic is almost cnevJtable. "The situation was rather unsettled but (inlet two months UKO when 1 left Ii' Paso." stated thc former resident <>f Mexico. However, he stated, trou ble was browing and then.- was an un dercurrent of titter feeling. The cit izen? along the border, were expecting trouble at any minuto from one fac tion or thc other. Mr. Iluppodlt stat ed that even the strongest aud most loyal Democrats at that time, were rather recentful towards the Wilson administration because of tho pro longed period of Watchful waiting. . Mr. Huppoldt expects to return to Mexlcofufter the present tangled slate of affairs have como to an end. .When that would be, he would make no prophecy.
