A1LGNMJBNT OF HERRERA WITH
VILLA ADDS TO COMPLEXITY
OF MEXICAN SITU?
ATION.
I Funston and Staff Profess Belief That
All is Well, hut Nona of Revolt
Brings Grave Concern?May Fore*
Shadow Extensive Troubles.
San Antonio. Texas. March 22.?
Reports that Gen. Luis Herrera, com?
manding 2.000 men at Chihuahua, had
aligned himself with Francisco Villa
against the United States were re?
ceived tonight with grave concern by
Gen. Funston and his staff. Officially
and unofficially the opinion here was
that with Herrera joining forcea with
the International situation might
easily be made so complex that by
comparison the pursuit of Villa would
be regarded as incidental.
The long Intervals between reports
from the field commander of the
American expedition already had
keyed the tension a bit, although Gen.
Pynston and his chief of stiff con
tlnued to profess the belief that all
was well with the troops below Cases
Grandes hut the report from Chihua
mhde Insignificant any anxiety
might have felt concerning Gen.
Pershing*s operations.
V T. R. Beltran, Mexioan consul here,
stated" early tonight that he nad not
receiatd confirmation of the report
wad ft* was inclined to laugh at It e.s |
a "border rumor."
- ' According to the version reaching
lierev Herrera was removed Monday
from command and immediately took
steps to alienate Ms garrison. That
Carransa has enough loyal troops in
northern Mexico to drive him from
the eft* ef Chihuahua If he attempts
to hold the place was believed by
military' men here but it wae not
thought that the holding ef thi city
wag his' plan. .
Military observers here see k poe
sfble ^connection with HerrChi's re?
ported ?etien In the interruption o'
Vlre service between Cases Qeandcti
and'Juarex yesterday and the wire
cattmg* today between Torreon and
OJlmtgav* opposite Presidio, Toxita. It
was suggested that those who cut the |
wises between Cases Grandel and
Xuaree might have thought thes were
being* used by Gsn. Pershing for com
muhtcatlon with Gen. Funston.
P.-'-.'If Herrera desires, it was pointed
'eel, he could greatly embarrass the
United States in its efforts t> run
down Villa and his followers. Cut
trmr 'of the Nbrfhwestdrn railway at
certain points would make it impos?
sible for the Americans to use it for
forwarding supplies for many days,
even If the Carransa government
granted permission. Another move
that it weh feared Herrera might' make
was to go north and east along the
trail to OJinaga and emulate Villa by
attacking Presidio. A small Ameri?
can force Is there now and this prob?
ably will be strengthened. Herrera's
reported' defection caused surprise to
these who know his former intimate
relations with Carransa.
No information has been made pub?
lic concerning the movement of Ufca
expedition in Mexico. It was said
that several dispatches haw been re?
ceived by Gen. Pershing, in command
of the' American troops; Vat that they
all were of a routine nature.
Laie tonight Geh. Funston reported
to the war department that an fnves
tigatlon proved there was no truth in
a report that 27 army'motor lorries
had been round 30 miles eft the lines
'of march in northern Mexico with
their drivers'missing.
In congress during the day Senator
Sherman of Illinois (Republican) in?
troduced a resolution to authorise the
preotdetil ro Issue a call for 60,000
volunteers to be used In the service In
Mexico. The resolution was placed
on the table to be called later.
The TJn Can Menace.
Who would have thought that the
tin can Is a menace to the public
health? The expert malaria investi?
gators of the United States public
health service have found however
that discarded tin cans containing: rain
water are breeding places for the mos?
quito which Is the sole agqnt in
spreading malaria. A. hole in the bot?
tom of the empty can might have re?
sulted In the saving of a human life.
Certainly it would have assisted in
preventing a debilitating illness.
Empty tin cans have no business
about the premises anyway, but if
ae must so decorate our back yards,
