AMERICANS RUSH FRQMCHIHUAHUA 200 Families Marooned in Mountains by Derailment of Train. '?f
CHIHUAHUA CITY, April 24. The rush of Americans from the territory controlled by the Constttutlonalists to the United States border is in full swing today. ; Hundreds of ; Americans and their famines are making all possible , haste .to 'get to the United States soil before their is actual declaration of war. '. . "' Two hundred American!? and their families from Madera and Pearson were marooned in the mountains by the derailment of a train. It was run by way of Chihuahua, as it was impossible to go direct to Juarez because the Cumbre tunnel on the National lines is still blocked with the debris which choked the bore when the tunnel was blown up by Maximo Castillo, the bandit chief. Suggestion was made that .troops be sent to guard the Americans, ; but it was decided that they were in no immediate danger, the country being sparsely settled at the point where the accident occurred. It was believed that by tonight the refugees would be in Chihuahua City or else on their way to El Paso. - By John W. Roberts, special correspondent of the International News Service.

WILSON'S PROGRAM IN WAR OF MEXICO
BY LEASED WIRE WASHINGTON, April 24. The administration's plan of campaign in Mexico is this: J 1 Seize every port of entry in Mexico, so as to cut off all ammunition or other supplies to Huerta's army. 2 Encourage Carranza and Villa to press their advances on Mexico City from the north so as to crush Huerta and the Federal power in the south. 3 Hold on army and rr.ake ro attack on Mexico but to hold down Huerta and let the rebels beat him. 4 Probably "recognize Carranza as provisional president as soon as Huerta is killed, captured or put to flight. 5 Rely on Carranza and the Constitutionalists to bring order out of chaos afterward. PERIL OF PROGRAM. The peril in this program is threefold: First Congress does not relish a personal war on Huerta, as if he were an unruly schoolboy to be licked. Second The country may not -approve the use of the army and navy for such " a purpose or a partnership with such bandits and outlaws as Carranza and Villa. " Third Carranza distrusts the sincerity of the Americans, has already defied our authority, only recently insultingly refused to answer an inquiry about the murdered British subject, Benton. When made by Secretary Bryan. In the meantime, the war having begun, it is probable that the unexpected will happen. Wars, like revolutions, do not move backward, V

ON TO MEXICO" ELECTRIFIES 5
Fifth Brigade Cheers and Bands Play When March Order Comes.
It is estimated that the inhabitants of the United' Staiesre -at th rate of four thousand a day. "
By Harry E. Dunn, Special War Correspondent of the International News Service. GALVESTON, Tex., April 24. Five thdusand bronzed and acclimated American soldiers, comprising the Fifth brigade, second division of the United States army, were electrified into sudden activity shortly after midnight by the receipt of orders that meant "On to Mexico." ' A great cheer went up from the military reservation at Fort Crockett, then the regulars settled down to the task of getting away. While tents were being struck, regimental bands played merry airs. The soldiers paid little attention to the music. They had gotten what they had been wanting: Orders to go to the front. Before the first private went aboard the transport, they had been fully provisioned. Piercing whistles from the vessels had set in motion the necessary machinery for completing the work of loading the ships a work that had been under way for several days. Great yellow army automobile trucks tore through the streets to the docks with horns shrieking, taking the final loads of camp supplies. Under the glare of searchlights the men worked rapidly on the docks, and the big cranes swung the cargoes aboard. Officers of the quartermaster's department worked without any sloop. Galveston got no sleep after midnight. Thousands turned out to watch the departure and a vast cheer went up when the Twenty-eighth infantry, under the command of Colonel E. H. Plummer, swung out of the portals of Fort Crockett into a dense fog into Seawall boulevard and thence across the city to the docks. Immediately following came the Seventh infantry, the Nineteenth and the Fourth. The engineers, hospital corps and field batteries had gone aboard during the night.

ALGARA LEADER OF SOCIAL SET
WASHINGTON, April 24. Washington lost one of its social stars when Senor Don A. A. Algara, first secretary and charge d'affaires of the Mexican embassy, left here today for Canada. The Mexican charge, called "the handsomest man in Washington,' was a favorite at all official and society functions. He had entree to the most exclusive homes in Washington and brilliant social affairs were considered incomplete without him. Senor Algara, in personal, appearance is far f rom "'" the true Mexican type. Tall and blond, with a flaxen mustache, he looks more like an England lord that a Latin-American diplo-
i mat. His extremely democratic man-
GERMAN SAVANT SEES CRUEL WAR
BY LEASED WIRE BERLIN, April 24. Professor Theodore ScWemann, the famous German authority on international law and a close friend of the Kaiser, severely criticises President Wilson's Mexican policy. "Europe,, he says, "holds Wilson responsible for having precipitated a conflict which can only lead to a sanguinary disastrous catastrophe. It will be an unnecessary war. The wild excesses and inhumanities of Carranza's and Villa's followers already have shown what this war will be like."
