PEACE DEPENDS
ON CARRANzA
By the Unlted Press.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l6.-The acid
test was being applied toaay to Gem
eral VenustanO Carranzn. On the out
come probably. hangs the question OF
final peace FOR Mexico. Carranza has
in his possession. Secretary Bryans
demands that he intervene to restore
order in Chihuahua City. Carranza' $
failure TO show that Villa is only a lieu
tenant who will obey orders, will in all
probability. end for all time the sug-
geston that Carranza is the one man
who can be depended on TO restore peace
and order in Mexico when Huerta Is
eliminated.
Bryan's demands. have. received un-
expected support from another source.
II Developed today that the local Con
stitntionalist junta has wired TO villa
Independent OF whatever action Car
rama Is taking. The victorious re-
volutionary general has been plainly
told that his action in eyicting for
eigners from their homes and exiline
them from the country has injured
| his cause here. Members Of the junta
here say that many OF the charges
brought against villa are without
foundation, that most Of the Span
iards exiled from Chihuahua City have
been open sympathizers with the
Huerta regime.
The administration was admittedly
worried about the latest development
in the Mexican situation and is wait
ing anxiously for report Of the Amer
ican consul at chihuahua. When the
various. Powers agreed TO await the
pleasure OF this government and not
Interfere in Mexico to protect their
own subjects and their property the
state department agreed to protect all
foreigners. This they have been able
to do up to the present. But should
villa prove obdurate in this instance
new problem will be presented
which would bring Intervention far
itoo close for comfort. But Secretary
Bryan was hopeful today that many
Of the stories emanating from Fl Paso
and other Texas border towns are ex-
laggerated.
I So far as the situation at Tampico
rs concerned, il was unchanged to-
lday. Most Of the refugees are being
properly cared for and the tension
has been slackened. But fighting
