President Wilson Sends 5,000 Soldiers into
Mexico to iiill or Capture Villa’s Bandits
Who Yesterday Raided Columbus, N. M.—
Notice Sent. to Carranzs’s Government
WASHINGTON, March IO.—Pl’¢3ld¢nt Wilson today
Ordered American troops over the Mexican border to capture or
kill the Villa bandits, who yesterday raided Columbus. N. M.
It was decided at today's Cabinet'meeting that Villa and his
bandits must be caught even if American troops have to go after
them. i
Fomj‘al announcement of orders for a punitive expedition of
'American troops to go after Villa is expected later in the day.
Secretary Baker left the Cabinet meeting early and hurried
over to the War Department. It was believed he went to send
orders to the troops on the border.
As the members of the Cabinet came out all expressed deep
satisfaction with the decision reached at the Cabinet meeting.
Que member indicated definitely that American troops would be
sent into Mexico. . ‘
As Secretary Lansing left the Cabinet meeting he indicated
that further representations, probably giving notice of the de-
cision, would be sent to the Carranza government immediately.
A statement is being prepared at the White House and will
be issued later today.
MajoriGeneral Scott. Chief of Staff of the Army, announced
that the expedition would consist of not less than 5.000 men all
of which are available on the’ border mnder Major-General Fun-
ston. .
In its present stage the President's order does not mean
armed intervention in Mexico. It provides for a punitive expedi-
-- tion to deal'vfiflt’fiiv‘lés’sforces over which the Carranza govern-v
‘ernment has no control. , | -
The following statement was issued at the White House:
“An adequateforce will be sent at once in pursuit of Villa
with the single object of capturing him and putting a stop to his
crimes for years.
“This can 'be done and will be done in entirely friendly aid
of the Constituted authorities in Mexico and with- scrupulous res-
pect for the soverignty of that republic.“
It was said at the White House that the American govern-
nfent wants Villa dead or aliVe and that no steps will be neg-
lected to carry out that object. »
It was declared that the United States wil not consider the
punitive expedition an invasion ed States will not consider the
deal with the Carranza government. The American government
is still opposed to armed intervention in Mexico. but has decided
; that the peace of both Mexico and the United States is imper-
iiled by the continued activities of Francisco Villa.
The Cabinet was unanimous in deciding that Villa must be
caught. Id"
Senator Fall introduced in Congress today a resolution pro-
viding for the recruiting of 500,000 volunteers to police Mexico.
