ton "court-martial" that first got Villa
In bad odor with the United States and
Great Britain. Cara has acted as
'iiias legal adviser. He was a very
close friend OF the late President Fran
cisco l. Madero, and is said to have
represented the Madero interests in all
Things connected with the revolution.
Concessions to the Madero family
were granted by Villa on the sugges-
ton OF Cara, 1T is alleged by Car
ranzas followers. and when Carranza
attempted TO annul or stop these, the
Madero influence on Villa was so strong
that villa finally split openly with his
chic.
That he had asserted his indepen-
dence even before the open break liz
charged by the Carranza supporters as
due to Cara and the Maderos. The
open break was brought about by Ma
dero influence; but even then Villa
acted with reluctance, they say. after
the Maderos had seen that IL was the
only way to put through their own
plans. They had been able to handle
Villa, but with Carranza in full control
they would have to meet n man as
astute as themselves. For this reason
they are said to have feared Carranza's
control OF Villa

with Carranza. lie has been shown that

to have induced him TO drop Cara.
This Is the first time villa has been
argued with on the matter. None OF his
own Generals has ever dared oppose his
plans. They could see that he was being
duped by the politicians in his camp. but
feared to tell him OF 1t. for villa is a
man or quick temper. The men in the
peace conference came to him from other
camps. They are not under his orders
and they talked TO him as friends arguing
common cause and are said to have
made him see number OF things that
had not been clear to him before.
Among the arguments used to Villa
one Is said to have been that the Maderos
are not representing the interests for
which Villa Is fighting. but rather the
principles of the old Dlaz regime under
new guise. 1t was pointed out to villa
that while Francisco Madero was an
idealist who was fighting for the common
people he was from a rich family that
at first called him crazy. yet when he
was In power 1t was his family who ex-
plotted the country the most that their
interest in the present revolution is the
interest OF rich men who would Identity
themselves with the winning side in an
attempt to handle the concessions.
As a result Villas ardor for the Ma
ceros is said to have cooled and their
influence in the new revolution will he
considerably curtailed. The Madcros own
