RESPECT FOR
COLUMBUS. N'. M., May 1. — There
are indications in the Villa territory
in Mexico that the work of the ex
pedition under General J. J. Pershing
has been accomplished. This work,
according to reports received here
from Washington, did not include the
death or the capture of Francisco
Villa. The announced purpose was
the dispersal of Villaistas and the
establishment of safety of Americans
on the border.
The Villaistas have been dispersed
for several weeks or else driven al
most completely from the state of
Chihuahua, a distance of nearly 500
miles south of the American boun
dary.
Throughout this territory the peo
ple have been impressed with two
facts which have inspired respect for
American soldiers. They are that
when Americans shoot they kill and
that a handful of Americans can not
be successfully attacked by superior
numbers.
Now Run for Cover.
The Villaistas, ever since Dodd's
fight at Guerrero, have run for cover
whenever the cavalrymen found theii
trails. Carranzaista officers who be
fore tills expedition penetrated Villa's
strongholds, warned some of the Am
erican officers that they never would
be able to cut loose from their bases
and forge ahead with small bodies
of troops. In no instance has one of
these small detachments failed, nor
have the Americans, as the Mexican
advisers predicted, even been threat
ened with attack from the superior
forces of Villaistas whom they some
times followed.
Will Be Slow to Approach Border.
! In the Parral fight there was a 15
mile retreat by the Americans, but
this was due to the American com
mander's desire not to bit civilians,
which led him to permit only a few of
his men. the best shots, to return the
fire of the Carranza troops.
After their experiences with Amerl
can columns the Villaistas, it is be
lieved here, will be slow to approach
■
the border of the United States. It Is
thought that they will hardly approach
this line at all if they think the Am
ericans can launch a nimmedlate pur
suit of them across the International
line.
May Withdraw to Casat Grande*.
Withdrawal of the advanced forces
in Mexico to the Casas Orandes re
gion is expected by the war depart
ment officials. The greater part ol
General Pershing’s force is now near
Casas Grandes. Army officers pointed
out that the retirement suggested
would cut the communication lines to
100 miles from the present border
base. The shorter line could be main
lained with ease.
