FIFTH BRIGADE OFF FOR MEXICAN PORT General Funston O r de r s Army Transport to Leave Galveston At 5 O'clock.

(BULLETIN.) GALVESTON, Texaa, April 24. Crigadier General Funston issued an order at 11 a. m. for the army transports carrying the Fifth brigade to Mexico to sail at 5 o'clock this afternoon. The artillery is not on board, but will follow on merchant steamers chartered by the government. BY LEASED WIRE WASHINGTON. April 24. Thirtyfive hundred soldiers of the regular army, under command of - General Frederick Funston, will sail from Galveston at 5 o'clock this afternoon for Vera Cruz, pursuant to orders from the war department. The troops will sail in four transports and a Mallory Line steamer, chartered for the purpose. Between four and five thousand regular troops began entraining at the Presidio, San Francisco, at daybreak, bound for the Texas border to srengthen the patrols along the frontier. They will proceed to Fort Bliss, from which point they will be apportioned. News that General Maas is massing an army a few miles from Vera Cruz, and thai General Blanquet, Huerta's j minister of war. is rushing with troops ! tn unit, with those under tne com- ; mand of Maas in a great attack on t the comparatively small force of ma l ines at Vera Cruz, is believed to have hastened this, the first definite war move taken by the administration. The landing of armed land forces cannot be construed otherwise than as an act of war. The army and navy joint board strategy worked far into the nigh; on nlana for an invasion of Mexico. Tha majority of the troops under General runston are mountain ariiu-i y. iunc troops will be available to hew a path to the Mexican capital should such a move be decided on by the war de partment. Three torpedo boat destroyers, the Preston, Reid and Flusner, will convoy the transports.

MAN READY

WAR man, who has asked that his name be withheld for the time being is prepared to offer his services to Governor Ralston in recruiting a company of Wayne county volunteers whenever President Wilson gives the word. He received military training for three years at a military academy where military training was under the supervision of a United States army officer detailed by the war department. Thousands Ready. "Thousands of young men all over the country have been trained for soldiers by the government in these academies and Uncle Sam will expect their services in the event of war. In fact, graduates of these academies are virtually under reserve for the pu'i"o ui buvpijiub unmeu umce of hostilities," this Richmond man stated. "I have a list of nearly fifty men residing in this city, all under the age of 35 years, who have had government training in military academies and because of the thorough training they have received, almost as complete as the training at West I J 1 J 1 A 1 J A. i. 1M uesirea uy ine war UBuuiem n we So across the border for real busi "co"Green officers for green troops are not aesiraDie. irainea omcers ior volunteers would soon shake down such regiments and make, them effective units of the army.

It will be remembered that that war was practically over, won by the regulars and a few well officered volunteer regiments, before the bulk of the volunteer outfits had been 'broken in' well enough at concentrations camps actually to trust them at the front." ASSIGNS NO MOTIVE Coroner Pierce's report on the suicide of Thurman Mitchell, while i standing in front of the home of his ' sweetheart, Miss Ida Eadler, North j Fourteenth street, Tuesday night, asj signs no' motive for the young man's action. I "It is not my business to ascertain ! the motives in such cases," the cor- : oner said today. "All I have to do is assign the cause of death, and I have j found Mitchell died from drinking j carbolic acid." I Asked what he thought prompted i the young man to slay himself, the j coroner said it had been reported to j him that the parents of Mitchell had I opposed his courtship of Miss Eadler, which might have made him despondent. "There is no reason to believe that he killed himself because the date of his wedding was postponed a week," the coroner added.
