DELAYS START ON BORDER
MaJ. Gen. Funston Says He W’ill Not
Delay on Account of Dipl6-
matic Tangle.
No movement of the expeditionary
force that will search for Francisco
Villa iai probable in twenty-four
hours, Maj. Gen. Funaton announced
Monday morning.
The' general said preparations for
the expedition were going on despite
Gen. Carranza's notification to the
Washington government that he
would not consent to American troops
entering Mexico unless Carranza
troops were allowed to enter the
United States. -V
Gen. Funston said he had received
no notification from Washington to
hold back the expedition while nego
tiations were being completed with
Gen. Carranza.
Gen. Funaton said the announce
ment of the expeditions' actual start
into Mexico probably would come
from Gen. Pershing, to whom would
be left lift decision as to the exact
hour for setting the movement afoot.
The shortage of rolling stock, Gen.
Funston said, was hindering The con
centration of cavalry at the base of
operations and this was one reason
why a movement *as unlikely. The
fault, he said, lay with the railroads
west of El Paso
"We have even had to transport
men in box cars,” he declared. “If
this had been merely an Infantry ex
pedltion we could have been into
Mexico on Villa's very beela, but this
is largely a cavalry movement and
that U why them has been delay.”
Light was thrown on the size of
the expeditionary force by the gen
eral. who aald:

Never before in this war, nor, of
course. In any other, had artillery
ami heavy guns beam employed as at
Verdun. On tlitF”point at least the
evidence all agrees, no matter from
which side it comes. French artil
lery officers have estimated that In
the first four days of the attack the
Germans fired 2,000.000 shells.
While woods are reduced to kindling.
A river disappears at one place. The

The theory of it is utterly to de-

At the seme time both sides put

losses very low; but If the offense
has not cost a much greater sacrifice
of men than hss been required of the

If the German casualties have not
been at least flnee as heavy as those
of the French It Is a onderful. The
Oermsn thedry Is that the odds favor
the defense by five to three, and pos
sibly by as much as five to two.
The explanation of at least some

The third week of battles leaves
the outcome as uncertain as it was
at the end of the first week, save
that the arrested rate of German
(or its development is unthinkable.
We should, therefore, assume that
Germany has completed her naval
program, and If ours has not been
completed, then some weighty rea
sons should be given.”
Thereon he started a discussion, in
the course of which developed facts
to show that since the beginning of
the war the British navy has been
enormously increased. .Whether its
strength has increased actually more
than that of the German navy can
not be known; but it might have In
creased actually much less, 'ttbd still
the British navy would be so much
more powerful as to leave a German
sea offensive in theory quite prepos
terous.
However, there are those who do
believe—-evidently Mr. Churchill Is
one of them—that some time Ger
many will challenge fate and essay an
unequal contest in sheer daring. A
political fact of the first magnitude
lies Tn the naval situation. In the
post-bellum negotiations the nation
that can point to the most powerful
navy in the world will have a tre
mendous leverage upon the terms of
reason why the English navy has not
taken greater risks, and did not, as
once Mr. Churchill threatened, go to
Kiel to dig the German navy out, as
from a rathole.
