M.), March 28 Evidence that Pancho Villa is preparing to re.ist the American pursuing columns and that the Mexican people are not as yet rallying to him, has been collected by the officers and the scouts of the American troop?. The officers who have ridden over the various fronts now maintained in the state of Querrero where Villa lied when the United States expedition crossed the border have found numerous indications that Villa miscalculated completely when he predicted that his Columbus raid would cause a general 'uprising against A merlcans. The status of the chase today Is that Villa is retiring continually southward, tryimr to force recruits into his ranks. His men are feelinp the pinch of hunger and are hoping for an early sommer to shield them acainst the cold of the mountains, where they have retreated somewhere south of Xamif-uipa. The one question of overshadowing importance now being asked by the (Heers in the field is: "Will Villa continue to prepare for resistance?" It is frankly hoped that he will, for that Is considered the best chance, barring a lucky capture through treachery of Villa's own men. of bringing the American expedition to an early successful conclusion. If Villa refuses to make any resistance, the men who have been over the ground here believe it may require months to crush him. An olhcer who has been throutrh many Villa campaigns, where Villa has passed within a week, found to all appearances the bandit had failed to inflame sentiment against the A meriea ns "These rural people." said the otlicer. "are in Ignorance of any reliable facts about the nature of the American expedition. They have b.-en told that the Americans are an invadimr army, a dangerous enemy; that they must tipht for their lives. Hut all those whom I saw seemed to be a very credulous people."

This waiting I took to be a hopeful sign. It was like oing into villages where the Inhabitants regard one with open suspicion, but are ready to be friendly, provided they think our mission is friendly. That, I think, is the attitude of the people towards us in many of the places where Villa hoped for recruits." i For two weeks the reports along Villa's trail show that he has seized among the young men and boys of small towns the hardiest as forced recruits in his hand. His custom has been for either himself or one of his lieutenants to lineup most of the male population for inspection. The best physical specimens have been pulled out of line and told roughly that they were honored above the others because they had become "Villa's men." In the Casas Crandes region at Galea na and EI Valle, Villa secured fully half a hundred men by this method. The disappearance of the Carranza garrison at Namiquipa and subsequent reports that these men had joined Villa was not taken at American headquarters as an indication of serious trouble. Personal investigation in the field indicated to the American officers, they said, that the constitutionalist troops were cooperating with good will. Defections Ivxpcvted. Occasional defections of Mexican troops, in view of the unsettled Perilous conditions in the republic, have been expected. Tiiere has been no sicrn of a break reported here on the part of any of the constitutionalist army officers with whom the American forces have been in actual cooperation. All of these appeared to be following orders from Gen. Gutierrez, military governor of Chihuahua, to close in on Villa from all sides. Villa has not. so far as the Americans have learned, faced any strong constitutionalist forces. His strategy has been ti select points in the constitutionalist lines where only a small force was available to oppose his quick charge. In such fishts, according to reliable reports reaching here, it has been a case of "Villa coming Sn on one side of the town while the garrison went out on the other." While Villa is now more closely pressed by constitutionalists as well as Americans than he has been for months, there has not yet been a real test of strength. CmCil With 1 1 innrer. Mexicans who have seen Villa's men in their retreat from the American border say they are ragged in the extreme and that their horses are worn out. ' The men themselves rushed into houses in Galoana demanding food, some of them shrieking for It as if they were nearly crazed with hunger. Wherever he has gone he has left behind threats, promising that he will return and that when he reappears he wilt kill or torture Mexicans whom he finds have been friendly to the Americans or even those who have worked for Americans as employes. Meanwhile Villa has been piven surprisingly little time for rest because of the rapid southward advance of the Americans.

Traders Hit (amps. Mexicans- everywhere during the first days of the American advance j kept much out of sight. Now, how- i ever, Mexican traders are beginning to come to the camps. Under hafs with a brim nearly a yard wide, a shawl of about equal proportions draped over them like a cape, and a basket of one bushel capacity hooked in one arm, they can be seen at a distance as they approach camp and are made welcome by the shouts of the soldiers. They carry back home reports of cordial tieatment and willingness to pay cash. In a few days the army's monthly pay is due, releasing many thousands of dollars among the men who have had no chance to spend money for what the soldiers say has been a "long time." The arrival of this spending money is likely to be a strong factor in establishing friendly relations between the army and the people of Chihuahua. At any rate, it will be an event FORMER LOCAL ATTORNEY SUED FOR FALSE ARREST Phillip I, (jtiinlan PlaintifT in Case Begun in Chicago Court by Woman. CHICAGO, March L'S. Suit for $50,000 was begun in superior court here Monday by Alvah P. Tyler against Philip p Quinlan. Only the I praecipe was riled and Atty. Jonas A. Hoover, who started the action, stated that he was acting on behalf of another attorney w ho represented a woman who, he said, was a former wife of Quinlan. The attorney said that Quinlan formerly was a lawyer and real estate dealer in South Iiend. Ind. Atty. Hoover, who riled the praecipe in behalf of an out-of-town attorney, asserted that he had been informed that the basis for the action is alleged false arrest. "Miss Tyler charges that Quinlan before their divorce had her arrested and placed in a hospital on the ground that she was mentally unsound." said Mr. Hoover. "She was subsequently released after being found sane." Quinlan. the attorney said, is now living in Chicago. INDIAN BILL READY WASHINGTON. March 2S. Considerable progress was made on the Indian appropriation bill in the sen ate Monday anil it will probably be j passed Tuesday, clearing the way for immediate consideration of the senate substitute for the house army increase measure.

Infantry Attack at St. Eloi Nets First and Second Line Trenches. LONDON. March 2S . The Brit- ! ish infantry stormed today and took first and second line German trenches along a front of 600 yards j at St. Kloi." says the Lritish offi- : cial communication issued this evening. The British and Germans have been fighting fiercely in the region of St. Eloi. just south of Ypres. and the British through the explosion of a big mine, and by infantry charges have captured or destroyed a considerable portion of the German trenches. The British infantry stormed and took first and second line trenches along a front of U0 yards. Iondon olficially announces, and Berlin admits that German trendies in this legion were blown up. to an extent of 100 yards, and that "casualties were cause! among the company occupying the position." Artillery Bu.y. Again the bombardment has become intense to the northwest and northeast of Verdun, and considerable activity by the big xuns also has been shown in the Woevre wood southeast of the forest, lime seemingly is not ripe, however, for an infantry attack and the men of both sides have lain idle in their trenches awaiting the moment for attack and counter-attack. The Germans after a period of comparative quiet, have again been shilling Bethancourt, Le Mort Hümme and Cuniieres, west of the Mouse, and are keeping up. with increasing volume, their bombardment of the French positions in the region of Vnux and Deuaumont, which have been stumbling blocks for several weeks in their attempts to get in around northeast of Verdun. French shells arc falling on the German positions in the Argonne and northeast of the t. Michiel salient. litis-; Take Two Lines. The Germans are obstinately resting the Russian attacks between Dvinsk and Vilna, but th-- Russians have captured two lines of their trenches to northwest of Postavy. Twenty bombs have been dropped by German airmen on the town of Dvinsk. In the Black sea littoral the Russians arc still making progress against the Turks. In the operations : wt en the Italians and Austrians in the Gorizia region the Austrian hae captured an Italian position on Podgora height. International News Service: LIBERTY, Ind.
