Funds Back of Rebels At Border Fueled by Big Money
United Press report says several power seeking Mexican factions with funds from 2 million to 20 million dollars are poised along the southern border cities to enter Mexico or seek U.S. intervention. Justice Department agents note rumors but few solid proofs of criminal acts. Felix Diaz is cited as a major concern, with no clear whereabouts since Vera Cruz. Most factions act independently, ready to unite if the chance of success appears.

U S Warns Carranza to Protect Mormon Colony
El Paso March 13 Gen Gabriel Gavira Carranza commandant in Juarez is warned through State Department agents that Carranza will be held responsible for the safety of the 500 American Mormon colonists in the Casas Grandes and Galena districts now cut off from Chihuahua City and Juarez. Pershing notes the meeting with Gavira was satisfactory. Mexican cavalry units are sent from Leagune toward Casas Grandes to aid the colony. A former Carranzista official fears wider Mexican rally against American forces, and predicts Carranza troops may oppose invasion if blood is spilled. No cross border cooperation shown by de facto forces today.

Pershing to Start from Columbus
Gen. Funston outlines plans for a two company motor train to support the expedition, with 27 trucks per unit and civilian crews. The motor train will haul provisions, forage, ammunition, and 200 horses to complete the cavalry quota. Reports from Alpine note a failed train hold up by six Mexicans, three captured.
