Sudden Departure of Villa for Chihuahua Gives Rise to Belief Leaders Trying to Compose Their Differ onccS
SITUATION SAID
 TO BE TENSE
Affairs Seem to Have Reached Stage Where One or Other Must Take Dis tinctly Secondary Posi- tion in Revolution.
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcHl

Fl. PASO, April 27-Relations be- tween Carranza and Villa suddenly have become the one topic of conVer- sation here upon the dissemination of the sudden departure of Villa Tor Carranza's headquarters in Chlhua l. hua The two leaders will meet to- night. perhaps to compose their dlf- constitutionalists shall hold toward tEe United States and over the grave problems of the military command.
 The refugees brought word that the affairs between them have reached a stage where one or the other must accept distinctly d sec ondary position in the revolution.
 Villa had contemplated longer stay. but upon the receipt oi tele- grams from the south. suddenly an nounced that he would leave.
 Significance was attached also to the departure of Rafael Zubaran, CarranZas minister of the interior. for Washington. He left this morn ing, and every effort was made to conceal that fact.
 Villa invited Roberto Pesquiera, Carranzas confidential agent. to ac- company him, but he refused, plead ing pressure of business. With Pes quiera here and Zubaran in Wash ington. there will be complete chain for communication with the latter city through agents thoroughly familiar with sentiment in Northern Mexico with military politicians and the exchange over the occupation ol Vera Cruz.
 Carranza is still waiting for a reply from Wilson pr Bryan to his disturbing note of last Wednesday The impression is growing that there will be no reply
 Three special trains carrying sol itEers and officers Of the sixth and Wixteenth Infantry regiments arrived and other trains with the remainder of the Eighth brigade are expected i The situation along the Texas l Arizona and New Mexico border is regarded as more reassuring. Refu- |
 gees generally reported they werf not Il-treated. although some re- ported that brigands took advantage lof the exodus to loot property Jeff unprotected.
 F,grting at Tampico continued, as 1 it has for q week. and the advantage thus far seems to have been with tho 1 federals.
 The First Battalion of the SiXtl Infantry. under command of Majo' 1 F. A. Lewis, arrived at noon from San Francisco. The Twelfth In | fantry. also sent from the Presidio has been diverted to Nogales where the regiment arrived and will takt the stations along the border.
 Brigadier General John Pershing who will command the Eighth brig ade, is expected to arrive tonigh with the Sixteenth Infantry.

or anything else done at this time which might embarrass their efforts
 Throughout official and diplomatic circles the belief was expressed that success of the peacemakers so far necessarily would have a favorable effect upon the situation; that even though their efforts ultimately failed indirect diplomatic communication between the United States and the Huerta government has been restored temporarily and the chance of q better understanding infinitely i'm proved.
 WASHINGTON, April 27.-rhe ten sion of the Mexican situation was dis tinctly relieved as representatives of Argentina, Brazil and Chile supported by pressure from all the I-atin-Ameri- man countries and the foremost powers Of Europe. concentrated their efforts toward q pacific adjustment of the crisis. The success of the first steps toward mediation-the prompt accept ance by the United States and the an nouncement of the Spanish ambassador that Huerta had accepted their good offices produced a feeling of distinct hope reflected not only in administra- ton quarters hut also in congress. where war talk gave way to spirit

SOMETHING DROPPED.

FOR only the second time in four
teen years a Republican has just been
elected to Congress from the Seventh
Congressional District of New Jersey,
and elected (be it noted) under cir
cumstances that make the event sig
nificant reputation of the Wilson Ad-
ministration's stand on the tariff and
tolls. The President was, naturally,
deeply interested in the campaign Of
the Democratic candidate and furnish
ed him with a personal letter for use
in his canvass. Senator collie" James
went into the District to speak as a
representative of the National Admin
istration and wound up his speedily
ing with these words:-"Mr. O'Byrne
is the choice of President Wilson. If
he is defeated, it will be taken as a
personal insult to President Wilson,
coming as it does from his own State"
Well, Mr.. O'Byrne was defeated
and by an overwhelming vote. That
defeat was not meant by the voters to
be an "insult" to President Wilson;
but it was meant to be a Reputation
of his tariff policy that has closed
down many of their industries, and Of
his canal tolls policy that is regarded
by many as an abject surrender to
Great Britain.
An un-American tariff policy and
an un-American tolls policy are not
what American voters are going to
stand for, however highly they may
regard President Wilson personally.

possible harm to our next Falls cleo
ton, as we stated recently in the
WING. To the principle of the Bill
itself there can be no objection. This
county has said by its voters that the
sale of liquors shall not bel licensed
within its borders. Why, then, should
liquor dealers be permitted to come
into the county with the sale of their
goods without license? 1t cannot be
justified.
To those of our readers who are in
terested in this subject particularly,
we beg leave to say that discussion
will be found in our editorial columns
of January "a, wherein is quoted at
length the statement made by the Cir
cult Court to the various Grand Juries
of this Judicial Circuit. The ground
is therein covered very thoroughly
and in an incontrovertible argument.

ANTI-sHIPPING BILL FOR CECIL

WHEN the Anti Shipping Bill for
the nine Eastern Shore counties went
over to the House of Delegates last
week, it was amended there at the
request of the Cecil delegation. so as
to except Cecil from its provisions. 1t
came back to the Senate thus amend
ed and Senator Williams requested
the Senate to concur in the amend
ment, because it would have otherwise
jeopardized the Bill for the other
eight counties, and also because he
respected (as he stated the sincerity
and judgment Of his colleagues in the
House, who thought an Anti Shipping
Bill for Cecil county at this time
might work against the success of our
county local option fight next Fall. In
order, however, to avoid "tie-up" on
the matter in the Senate, he agreed
(upon the passage of the Ants Ship
ping Bill for the eight lower counties)
to introduce at once such separate
Bill for Cecil county, which he did
and which was passed. The only pos

part of the friends of no-license, is its

SHAME FOR MARYLAND.

THOSE persons, who have been con-
tending that an anti-gambling race
track law could not be successfully
enforced, ought to give some thought
to what has just happened to the race
track crowd down at Jamestown, Va.
They ought also to blush IF power to
blush if left them) that the race track
should be now fleeing from Virginia
to find refuge and recampment at
Havre de Grace, Maryland, Just read
the following news article from Bal
timore daily paper:
Disappointed and thoroughly con-
WINGED that the Virginia authorities
are determined to put an end to bet
ting at jamestown racetrack, a horde
of racetrack followers arrived in Bal
timore Thursday on the boats from
Norfolk, loo,.ing forward with long
ing eyes to the opening of racing at
Havre de Grace.
Dismay marked the actions of near
ly all of the contingent. Most of them
were glad that they got away from
the scene of trouble, and some admit
ted that it was hard to get away.
"You couldn't borrow nickle in
Norfolk, last night" said one feeling
ly. "Some of the boys had to beg
their fares, and it was a serious prob
lem getting the wad for the trip to
Baltimore"
The convictions and jail sentences
imposed by the magistrate at Norfolk
on the bookmakers arrested in raid
at jamestown track Tuesday have
convinced the "bookies" that Virginia
is no place to loiter and placing bet
bids fair to become as hard as finding
the historic needle in the we'll known
haystack.
Because of the clean sweep made by
Baldwin and his detectives at the
track, many of the men would not
have been able to get away from Nor
folk it is said if the conductors had
not been kind to them. But while
many of them arrived here with but
little more than the experience how to
make books, they are all imbued with
the hope that they will have no diff
Guilty in recouping their somewhat de-
pleted fortunes by picking at Havre
de Grace.
That track will be ready to receive
shipments tomorrow. Billy" Garth
and ''Sam" Hildreth will be among
the first to arrive.
With the arrival of the strings of
racers from the South are expected to
be more of the bookies, who will add
to the alerady large number who have
been driven from the Jamestown fields
and who will increase the unusual con-
tingent at Havre de Grace"
