SAYS GEN. CARRANZA
AND VILLA WILL BE
OPPOSED IN BIG BATTLE

The next big battle fought in Mexico
will be between the forces Of Gen. Car
rama and Gen. Villa"
This was the startling statement made
last night by a member OF the constitu-
tionalist junta here "Huerta will fee
from Mexico within the next two weeks, -
he added, and whoever remains at the
head of the government will surrender
Immediately to the constitutionalists
without a struggle.
Villas actions indicate he will not
withdraw his forces from the north As
a matter Of fact Gen. Carranza and the
other rebel leaders do not want him 10
take Mexico City.
villa himself has come to discover
that he is not the popular hero OF his
country. When he broke with Car
rama 10 his dismay he found that
nearly every other general in the field
was against him and loyal to the first
chief He realizes that Carranza re-
fused him ammunition and war sup
plies after the capture Of Zacatecas sim.
ply to halt his march on Mexico City
Constitutionalists of standing insist that
Gen. Obregon. who is a man Of great
personal wealth, culture and refinement
must be the man to whom the capital
will surrender.
The peace pact between CarranZa and
Villa recently signed, is sounding brass
II means nothing except that Villa saw
the futility of permanently breaking with
CarranZa at this juncture and has re,
tired to bide his time. The two men
are still. and always will be, at sword
points"

CARRANZA SAYS HE
WILL CONTINUE PLANS
FOR MEXICAN PEACE

SaltilIo, July 1l.-Gen. Venustiano Car
rama the constitutionalist leader this
afternoon issued a statement that he
would continue the struggle to establish
peace throughout the country and would
Immediately thereafter call elections
which would result in the re-establish-
ment OF constitutionalist order in Mex
leo.
The constitutionaIist leader also stated
that he had ordered his officers to at all
times protect foreigners OF every nation
ality and to see that their lives and in
terests were safesuarded.
in few days the three divisions Of
Gen. Pablo Gonzales. Francisco Villa, and
Alvaro Obregon," said Gen. Carranza,
will advance simultaneously toward the
capital. and l believe that Huerta. the
usurper will not resist the advances OF
the constitutionalist forces"
The commission returned to Saltillo
yesterday to urge Carranza to recede
from his demand that Villa denote Gen.
Felipe Angeles from high rank. Villa
is said to have agreed only that he is
willing Carranza should continue as pre-
mier jefe provided they can get togeth-
er on other points.
Carranza has grown very bitter against
GEM Angeles whom he charged in his
Monterey speech with being a Judas
among the constitutionalists. Villa, on
the other hand, still defends Angeles and
has found support for his attitude among
the members of the commission.
On this point alone there is none who
will forecast the outcome OF the proceed
ings.

themselves hoarse, beat one another N

! Mrs. Howard Beall. Of Washington, one
of the authorities OF the East on social
settlement work, has opened COM
munity settlement in Alexandria, in the
oldest school building in the United
States, built in 1855, at cost Of 5000.
George Washington gave a large con-
tribution to the fund for the first Amer
icar school building. and IL was named
after the Father OF His Country. The
George Washington School house has
been one of the landmarks and show
places OF Alexandria, and until the open
ing Of the settlement no child was per-
mitted to set one tiny foot on the culti-
waited grass. But now white sand piles,
see-saws and swings dot the green sward
and happy little children play on the
grass from early in the morning until
the grounds close for the night
Has Practical Experience.
Mrs. Beall was chosen by a committee
representing the Parents-Teachers' AS
sociation from a number OF women who
had practical experience in the operating
OF Fairgrounds and industrial and social
centers. Her greatest recommendation
was the work accomplished as founder
Of the Grover Cleveland social settle
ment at the Grover Cleveland School,
Eighth and T streets northwest.
Two hundred children gather at the
sChoolhouse every day, and under the
direction of Mrs. Beall, with the volun-
teer assistance OF Miss Sophie Tacket. Of
Alexandria, they have already made
with carpentry tools boxes for their
sand piles and erected see-saws that

hopeful that il may be passed at the ses-

II does not attempt to set a definite

proof OF their ability to govern them
