SEATED.

cause Another Leader Takes the
Place of His Present Enemy.

Washington.-Events ia Mexico are
shaping themselves for termination
of the civil strife that has kept that
country in turmoil and threatened
at one time to provoke war with the
United States. General Huerta against
whom the Constitutionalists have
waged incessant warfare since he
overthrow President Madero IS
months ago, has given up the struggle
at last.
Weakened by the struggle of the
United States to recognize his Gov
eminent and cut off from financial
support in Europe, he realizes the
big Constitutionalist army, augmented
daily as it presses southwark, is at
the threshold of the Mexican capital.
Fearful that an invading army may
commit excuses which would endang-
er the lives of an innocent population
and destroy property, persons inf1uen-
tial with the man who has dictated
affairs in Mexico City at own whim
have persuaded him to abandon his
hopeless position.
Comprehensive messages to Wash
ington diplomats from legations and
consulates in Mexico City thus de-
scribe the situation.
Within a few days General Huerta
is expected to resign in favor of his
newly appointed Minister of Foreign
Affairs, Francisco Carbajal, until re-
Gently chief justice of the Supreme
Court of Mexico. Difficulties between
the United States and the Huerta Gov.
eminent were composed at Niagara
Falls Huerta would leave the internal
problem to be settled by his successor
Carbajal, it is expected, would
bring the gap from the Huerta regime
to new provisional administration
controlled by the Constitutionalists
He has not been active in politics
and is anxious for peace.
