HUNT FOR ftlA 10 OF HIDEO PENDING OUTCOME OF DIPLO MATIC RELATIONS WITH CAR- , ? RANZA GOVERNMENT. NO NEW ORDERS ARE ISSUED ? if.." ** * -> Carranxa Military Forces Must Prove Their Ability to S^ap Brigandage on the Border 8tatee. Washington.?The United States la prepared to treat with General Car ranza as proposed in his note for the withdrawal of Amerlcau troops from Mexico. Pending the outcome of the diplomatic negotiations, however, the status of the expedition will remain unchanged and the pursuit of Villa continue. This was the situation officially stated after President Wilson and his Cabinet had considered the new phases of the Mexican problem rais ed by General Carranza's communica tion. Secretary Lansing said he was prepared to take up the matter with the de facto government, but would not Indicate when a reply might be sent. Secretary Baker said no new orders had been sent to General Funs ton and that none were under con templation. Both Secretaries said there had been no change In the policy ot the Administration which prompted the pursuit of Villa. Secretary Lansing would not say whether he was prepared to negotiate with the de facto government for the possible fixing of a date for with oravu 01 American troops. ne iuui cated that the time element of any agreement would be based on what developed In the pursuit of the band its. As the Administration's attitude is understood here, a satisfactory de monstration by the Carranza military forces of their ability to stop all brig andage in the border states wohld see the object of the American expedition accomplished. Senator Stone, chairman of the For eign Relations Committee, is thought to have voiced the Administration view to the senate, speaking after a conference with Secretary Lansing. "The problem confronting" this gov ernment.'' the Senator said, "is how long it would be wise to keep an ex peditionary force in Mexico. If we adhere to our policy towards Mexico, we cannot keep the army there. To my mind the only alternative to with drawing the troops sooner or later is Intervention." SENATE VOTES 43 TO 22 FOR BIG NITRATE PLANT. \ Smith Amendment Carries $15,000,000 For Government's Proposed Venture Washington.?The senate adopted the army bill amndment of Senator Smith, Sputh Carolina, appropriating $15,000,000 for a government nitrate plant. The vote was 43 to 22. This action disposed of the second big fight in the Senate over the senate substitute for the house army reorgan isation bill. Senator Smith's amendment pro vides for the sale of Panama Canal bonds for raising the required $15,000, 000 and the president is authorized to designate not more than five water power sites for power plants. When products of these plants, which will be operated exclusively by the govern ment .are not needed for manufacture of munitions of war the surplus could be disposed of by the secretary of war for fertilizer. RUSSIANS CLAIM DEFEAT OF GERMANS IN EAST Except for the artillery wings of the contending armies there has been no fighting at any point on the long front in France and Belgium. Several days now have elapsed since the Germans launched a heavy attack on the positions in dispute before Verdun, but their artillery has con tinued vigorously to shell the LeMort Homme sector northwest of Verdun and the second line positions of the French to the east of the Meuse. In the Argonne the French continue to operate with their guns against Ger man points of vantage iand in the re gion of Pont-a-Mousson they have shelled convoys of Germans. On the Russian front the Germans essayed attacks between Lakes Sven ten and Ilzen, but were repulsed with heavy casualties. Ir? Galicla, south east of Boutchache. the Germans alsc took the offensive, but here again were repulsed. The Russians claim the pap $y-ture in the Strips region of a German position and the putting down of coun ter-attacks launched with the inten tlon of recapturing It BOLL WEEVIL TO INFEST ENTIRE dOTTON SECTION Washington.?The bolr weevil wil infest the entire cotton section of th< Booth before Its progress is checked according to the report of a specla committee of the Chamber of Com Bierce of the United States Just mad< public. Attempts to destroy the weevil b; spraying and poisoning have me with scant success because the weevi bores into the plant. The annual rati of advance is said to vary from 40 ti 70 miles, according to conditions. Note to Germany is Last Word. Washington.?President Wilson an< the cabinet went Over the submarini crisis again and reaffirmed their de termination to bring the situation wltl J Germany to an issue. The decision ti inform Germany that recent accumula tlpn of evidence of ships destroyed It subfnarine warfare leads to the inevt table conclusion that the promises t< the United States are not being full filled, .remained unchanged.

Stone and Lodge were named as the senate con- j ferees. Unless a conference agreement Is reached and approved before May 1 sugar will go on the free list until such time as the repeal of eAenslon of the duty can be made effective, t Most of the tariff discussion was devoted to an amendment by Senator Works of California to Increase the tariff on lemons and other citrus fruits to one cent a pound. This was defeat ed by a vote of 44 to 29. Senator Phe lan of California being the only Demo crat to SUDDOrt It. Senator Vardaman said he would rote tor the senate substitute sugar resolution but would not give his con sent to the house measure. MORE TROOPS NEEDED IN MEXICAN EXPEDITION. Or New Base With Shorter Line of Communication Must Be Given. San Antonio, Tex.?Stall officers at Fort Sam Houston were of the opinion that by the end of this week addi tional troops will have to be sent into Mexico to reinforce the punitive ex pedition. or a new base and line of communication, much shorter than | that now maintained between Colum bus. N. M , and the front,: must be established. General Funston said that so tar General Pershing has not asked for reinforcements. FORTY MILLIONS CARRIED IN RIVERS AND HARBORS BILL. Washington.?The rivers and har bors appropriation bill, carrying $40. 000,000 was passed by the house by a vote of 210 to 133. The bill now goes to the senate. Just before the final vote an effort led by Republican Leader Mann to 1 reduce the total to $20,000,000 failed 200 to 149. ' The entire appropriation, except for a $700,000 item to deepen the" ap 1 proaches to the Brooklyn Navy Yard, ! is for continuing work on improvment projects already authorised and under 1 way. The single new project was urged by President Wilson and Secre tary Daniels as part of the prepared ness program. Russians Check German Attack. Petrograd.?In the Russian theater J an attempt by the Germans to take ' the offensive in the region of the Ik ' skull bridgehead was stopped by the Russians. The big guns of both sides ' | have been busy at various points else ' j where along the front. The official | communication reports Russian gains ' against the Turks In the region of ' ? Erzerum. Unofficial advices are to ' the efTect that the Turks have re ! grouped their forces and now are re ' sistlng stubbornly the three Russian I main lines of advance. Biggest U-Boat in U. S.

BAN MOBS ATTACK TROOPS ACTUAL CONFLICT SEVERAL ARE KILLED AND j WOUNDED IN FIRST ACTUAL CONFLICT. MACHINE GUNS USED ON MEXICAN BANDITS Carranxa Wirea Admlaalon That Situa tion Threaten! to Got Beyond Hit Control.?Troopa In Antl-Amarlcan Territory. Washington.?American troops in Mexico have had their first battle with the natives at the moment General Carraxa Is urging their withdrawal. While General Carranza's ffcte ask ing for withdrawal of our troops was on Its way to Washington, troopers of the Seventh Cavalry under Major Tompkins were fired upon in Parral, a Villa stronghold In eastern Chihua hua; were pursued to the suburbs while the Carranxa garrison took a doubtful part In the affray, and our troops were attacked again during the night. Complete Information regarding the losses to the American troops or to the Mexicans had not reached Washing ton. Secretary jlaker informed Presi dent Wilson that a brief dispatch to the war department said that accord ing to unofficial reports, one American cavalryman was killed and that the troopers used a marline gun against the Mexicans Mr Baker announced later that he had ordered General Punston to take any steps necessary to prevent further touble. Asked whether this might mean the enforced use of Mexican railroads for the movement of soldiers and supplies, he said General Punston was on the ground and would act as any emergency required General Carranxa directed his em bassy here to point out that the clash proved his contention that the pres ence of American troops in Mexico is leading to a situation which threatens to be beyond his control and telegraph ed that "many deaths had occurred on both sides." Foreign Minister Agullar, In a dis patch sent before that from General Carranxa, said one American trooper was killed and seevral civilians were wounded. Consul Garcia, Carranxa agent at El Paso, wired the embassy that "sev eral persons were killed on both sides." EL PASO ANXIOUSLY ASK8' WHAT WILL WILSON DO? Other Riots Reported Due to Starva tion Among Mexicans Across Border. El Paso, Texas.---El Paso Is In a state of intense anticipation. "What will Washington do?" was the ques tion on every lip. every other topic faded Into Insignificance. The news of the clash at Parral between American soldiers and Mexi cans was followed by reports of se rious rioting at other points In Chi 1 uuanua dui in none were American soldiers said to be Involved. The riots were said to be due principally to scarcity of food. In many cities of northern Mexico the masses of the people are said to be on the brink of starvation. The worst rioting was reported far to the south in Aguas Calientes, Cap ital of the state of that name. Spas modic food riots during the last two days were described In a message re ceived from a mining concern with large interests In Aguas Calientes. As far as this section of the border is concerned the news of Carransa's request for the wlthdrawel of the troops has not caused an open dis turbance. Juaret maintlned its cus tomary placid attitude and the Mexi cans on both sides of the river seem ed far less excited than the Ameri cans. v , . ? rT; ? British Bark Torpedoed. London.?The British bark Inver lyon has been sunk by a submarine, according to a report report received by Lloyds. Twelve members of the crew",were rescued. Hopewell Celebrates Anniversary* Hopewell, Va.?Hopewell the city which has grown from a village to a city of 35,000 people within a year, and which has twice during that litre bu n wiped out by fires, celebrated its fcrst anniversary. Favor Big Navy. Washington.?Agitation for a great er navy at the expense of army in creases marked the last day of general debate In the Senate on the army re organisation bill. Chairman Stone of made a plea for a navy big enough to light offensively on the high seas to defend American rights anywhere in the world, and Senator Borah on the Republican side urged that the Fed eral volunteer and National Guard provisions of the Chamberlain bill both be sacrificed In order to add to the extension of the naval forces. Some Seek Personal Gain. Washington.?A national defense commission, a navy general staff and an immediate increase in the navy were demanded in resolutions adopt ed here at the final meeting of the annual convention of the Navy League of the I'nlted States. Officers of the league were Instructed to urge Con gress to enact the necessary legists tlon. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt defended the ncvy against criticism from those he said were try ing to gain personal or solitira' | profit. ?9 CAPT. B. D. FOULOIS Capt Benjamin D. Poulole.

Line of Communication Will Be Im proved by Uae of Infantry?Cav alry Will Be Kept at Front. Washington.?Such marked Improve ments In conditions along the Mexican border has been reported by General Funston that the war department now Is considering drawing upon some of the troops statlonea In Texas to strengthen the ever lengthening lines of communication of the expedition seeking Villa. From now on infantry will probably be used to reinforce communication lines, the cavalry being kept at the front for the actual work of running down the outlaws. A part of the Twenty-fourth infantry, negroes, with drawn from Del Rio, Texas, already has been ordered Into Mexico. State department dispatches indica ted that the Carranxa authorities are viewing with some anxiety the con i tlnued presence of American troops In Mexico and are Inclined to believe that the object of the expedition has been accomplished In the dispersal of Villa's main command. GERMAN SUBMARINES ACTIVE. Reach High Mark by Taking Eight 8hlpa In 24 Honrs. The past 24 hours marks the high est toll ot the German submarines against the common qnemy since the beginning of the war on land or sea In so short a space, . A total of eight vessels, six Brltisli, one Spanish, one Norwegian, have fallen victims to the U-boats. Five of these British steam ers have been In the American trade. At least four of the British boats are said to have been unarmed, but of these only one Is reported to have been sunk by Germans without warn ing. FRENCH LOSS HEAVY IN TERMITEN HILL FIGHT Berlin, via London.?Exceptionally heavy French losses are reported In connection with the German advance south tjf Haucourt, by which the Ba varian and Slleslan trqpps now occu py the freights of the so-called Termlt en hllfrj. The French,.losses within a few hours were Increased by a counter attack on the lost positions which failed utterly. The captured positions are more than 2,000 yards In width. They are on the left bank of the Meuse about two-thirds ot a mile southward of Hau court and are a continuation of height 287. INJUNCTION AGAINST S C. ?'ANTI-COMPACT'' LAW Columbia. S. C.?State Insurance Commissioner McMasters and Attor ney General Peebles were notifled that they are enjoined1 temporarily from enforcing the "anti-compact" insur ance law, which has caused a large mnlnrftv r?f tho Are inanmnro anmna. nies to withdraw from the state. The injunction was issued at Abbe ville by Justice Eugene B, Gary of the state supreme court on a petition pre sented by a Charleston Insurance agent. Hearing was set for April 17. The agent charges that the law is unconstitutional. Troops Know No "Dead Lne." San Antonio. Tex.?Dispatches from the front Indicating a contact between the advanced columns of the American expedition beyond Satevo were anxi ously awaited by General Eunston. The cavalry detachments are believ ed to be making their way along the dangerous mountain trails In the vi cinity of Parral In close pursuit of Villa. General Punston said that so far as he knew no "dead line" on the pursuit If Villa bad l^en fixed?Uie American troops are In Mexico to get Villa. | 1? Charlie Chaplin Gives Beggar Nlckle. New York.?Charlie Chaplin, the well-known spendthrift, stepped out of Rector's and met a Broadway pan handler who said: "Pardon me. my friend, but I am in need of a square meal Will "Here, my good man," said the pompons Charlie with a flourish, ex tracting a nlrkel from his pocket, "take this." "Thanks*" said the pan handler. as he took the nickel. "But you don't happen to havs a dyspepsa tablet about you. do you. t always suffer when ' ? sreat." I BIG VILLA1 BAND TAKES WHOP! REPUTED DEAD COMES TO UFl AND SACKS TOWN OF EIERRA MOJADA. THINK U. S. WILL WITHDRAW Bellave Villa Himulf Lead the Raid and la 200 Mllee From the Ameri can Troope. El I'asp, Texas.?A band o( Villa followers numbering several hundred and possibly a thousand, have sacked Sierra Mojada. live miles across the Coahulla line and 80 miles east of Jlmtnei, destroying many " thousands of dollars' worth of American property and looting the town of everything of value. This news, which may prove to be of the highest Importance as It Is be lieved possible Villa himself was among the raiders, was received here by the representative of one of the largest mining concerns In Mexico and Is accepted by,him as authentic. The bandits made their attack on the town on April L They came from Escalon, a Junction point on the Mexican National Railroad, 60 miles southeast of Jimlnes and about an equal distance southwest of Sierra Mojada, which has Its connection by the Mexican Northern Railroad. On their way to Sierra Mojada they sack ed the small town of Corrllo The belief that Villa himself may be directing the operations of the bandits Is supported by a report re ceived from Ojlnaga stating that Col onel Rojas, the commander, had Infor mation that Villa had doubled In his tracks and was 200 miles southwest of that town. Sierra Mojada Is 140 miles east of the nearest point at which American troops are known to be. It Is on the eastern side of a vast desert, known as the Bolson Maplml and south of another dreary, water leas waste called Bolson de Los Llp anes. Its only connection with the west Is by the Mexican Northwestern Railroad along which the bandits ad vanced. burning bridges, destroying telegraph lines and tearing up tracks. Numerous reports from Mexican sources Agree that Villa la convinced the force of the United Statee soon will be recalled and that he will be able then to rally all the aptl-Carransa factions In northern Mexico to his standard. FUNSTON NEEDS NO ORDERS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO. He Can Move Any Troop i in Southern Diviaion Into Mexico, Says General Scott. Washington.?Further Increase of the United States forces In Mexico la again prominent in official considera tion. In this connection It was officially stated that General Pershing's future movements In the hunt for Villa would include adequate preparations for any eventuality. Strengthening of the line of communication, for which troops are needed principally, has proceeded with that end in ciew. General Scott, chief of staff, while denying that any orders to send more troops into Mexico had yet been is sued. declared General Funston did not need such authority from Wash ington and had carte blanche to move any force In the southern division RESOURCES NATIONAL BANKS ?13338,000,000. Washington. ? Financial prosperity and strength Is greater In the United States than ever before and is rising rapidly to new levels, according to thfe interpretation placed by Comptroller of the Currency Williams on figures made public showing conditions March 7 in the country's national banks.

The ?sale was ordered by the Federal court because the cargo was depreciating in value. The largest item of the sale was of 19,000 bags of cocoa beans which brought nearly $500,000. American Killed by Bandits. San Diego, Cal.?Several Americans have been killed or wounded in the vicinity of Guaymas, Sonora, accord tng to a naval radio message received here. Guns Not For Defense. Washington.?France has assured the United States that guns aboard the liners Vulcaln and lone at New York will not be used for offensive purposes and Collector Malone was instructed to clear the ships. Attack Daniels and Hay Bill. Washington.?Session of the annual convention of the Navy League of the United Stktea were featured by at tacks on Secretary Daniels because of his refusal to permit Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske to read a paper at the convention and a denunciation of the Hay Army bll% by Stanwood Menken, president of the National Se curity League. Robert M. Thompson, president of the Navy League, called the Navy Department's policy nar j row and assailed Secretary tor what | he termed suppression of free speech. BIG CONVENTION TO MEET IN 6OL0SB0R0 t 1 PLANS NOW COMPLETE POR EAR AC A-PHI LATHE A CON VENTION. MANY ABLE SPEAKERS ARE ON THE PROGRAM Largs Delegation of Baracaa and Phll theaa and Other Sunday School Workara Expected to Attend. The 75,000 Berates and Phllatheaa In North Carolina will be Interested to know that plans are now complete (or what will probably berths greatest convention of organised Sunday School classea ever held In our state. The convention meets In doldsboro. April 27-30. Much Interest Is being manifested in the coming meeting, and a large delegation of Baracaa and PhUatheas and other Sunday 'School workers la expected to be on hand. 8peclal rates have been secured on all railroads and board and lodging hi the Convention City can be obtained at a dollar per day. The names of a number of delegates have glready WC\J. Wllbar Cliapmu Dr. ChajSlSan will hare charge of one of thV services at the Baraca-Phlla thea Convention. The great evan gelist is so well known throughout the State that many will attend the convention to hear hi* message. been sent in and others are coming in every day. In order to avoid a rush and for the sake of convenience both to the delegates and to the reglstra tlon committee It was decided that when possible the delegates send tn their names and registration fee of 64 cents in advance to Miss Hattit Dewey. Goldsboro. and she will for ward badge and address oi home to which delegate has been assigned. This arrangement, we believe, will be to the advantage of all parties since the prominent speakers and workers who will take part on Ike program will in all probability attract an un usually large delegation. The coming convention will be the sixth since the state organisations were formed. Six years ago there were about 400 classes in the State; to-day there are over 1,000. The six years of their existence have not only been marked by a wonderful growth In number, of members and classes, but the Interest in the work seems to be on the Increase. The organised Sunday School class has J us lined its existence by what it has done and is doing as a movement. No other plan of winning young men and young women to the Sunday School and Church has ever been discovered that I brings the result like the Baraca Phllathea movement. It Is a fact for which the various denominations of our State might well be proud that North Carolina heads the list of all the states of ihe Union in this work. A program worthy of the work that has been and la being done by the Baraca and Philathea classes of the state has been prepared for the con vention only a few days off. Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman and Dr. Alexander. knnwn tha tmnrM owns ?? * services as evangelists, will have charge of one session. Miss Hen rietta Heron, of Elgin, 111., vice-presi dent of the World-Wide Baraca-Phlla thea Union and Dr. Chas. D. Bulla, of Nashville, Tenn., superintendent of the Wesley Adult Bible Class Move-, ment. are other prominent speakers and workers from outside of our own state. A number of prominent Sun day School leaders from our own ranks will appear on the program. With special conferences for super intendents, pastors, and teachers and officers, under the direction of the. 'most efficient Sunday School workers available, It la expected that a large delegation cf those Interested In more efficient Sunday Schools from all parts of the state will attend. Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman, D. D. The program committee of the Baraca-Philathea Union was Indeed lucky in being able to add to the al ready long list of able speakers the name of the famous evangelist. Dr. J. Wilb.\r Chapman. Dr. Chapman is well known by thousands of people In North Carolina and his coming will add great strength to the prograaa. Baklny Powder Biscuit.
