RESIGNATION
OF CARRANzA
GIVEN DENIAL

Mexico City, Oct. 15.-The Mexican
foreign minister, Ysidro Fabella, to-
day denied that Gen. Carranza had re-
signed the supreme power of the Con-
stitutionalists in favor of Antonio
Villareal, Governor of the state of
Neuvo Leon.
Minister Fabela said that General
Carranza considered that the action Of
the Mexico City convention in reject
ing his resignation settled the ques-
ton, but if the convention at Aguas-
calientes voted to reconsider the mat
ter, Carranza with the same high pa
triotism and disinterestedness would
bow to the will of the majority.
Reports from Aguascalientes are that
the question cf the Presidential sue
cession was settled at a secret session
today.

SENATE PROGRESS
ON WAR REVENUE

Washington, Oct. 15.--Despite eff
forts of Southern senators to divert
discussion to cotton relief legislation,
the Senate made material progress to-
day on the war revenue bill. Many
important sections were agreed to
after the proposed amendment author
izing a $25O,0O0,OoO bond issue to aid
cotton producers had been debated
and vote deferred. The Senate agreed
to strike out the tax on proprietary
medicines. The revised section taxing
the shipment Of newspapers was
agreed to and an amendment inserted

Allies Center Advances

In the center the allies also have ad-
vanced, particularly toward Craonne,
and to the northeast of the road from
Berry u-Bac to Rheims and to the
north of Prunay, several German
trenches have been carried. All this
shows a determined and partly sue
cessful attempt to drive the Germans
away from Rheims, which was again
under bombardment today. The ia
nous cathedral has again been made
the target of the German artillery, the
Germans accusing the French of hav-
ing used the towers for military pur-
poses. The French advance in this vi
cinity also indicates an attempt to
break the German front and force
wedge between the German right and
left wings.
The French also claim to have made
an advance between the Mouse and
the Mossel after repulsing the Ger
man attacks to have reached south of
the road leading from Verdun to
Metz. 1t is probably this fighting which
the Germans referred to as having TAX
taken place in the region of Metz. On
the French right where things have
been quiet for some time. the Ger
mans have attempted offensive tactics

ALASKA COAL LEASING BILL
ONCE GIVEN UP AS DEAD IS
AWAITING FINAL SIGNATURE

Washington, Oct. 15.-Gven up as
dead legislation less than week ago.
the Alaska coal land leasing bill, re-
xived at the instance of President
Wilson and Secretary Lane as part of
the administration program of this
session, awaits only the Presidents
signature to become a law. 1t went
through it's final ordeal in the House
today, virtually without opposition.
The bill is designed to throw open
to system of leases under competi-
tive bidding the immense coal re-
sources of Alaska, tied up the last
eight years and pending claims will
be adjudicated within a year.
The Bering river. Matapuska and
Nenana coal fields will be the first
surveyed, the government retaining
5120 acres in the Boring and 1850 acres
in Matanuska field, and one half Oh
all other coal areas. To prevent mo-
nopoly. or in other emergencies, the
government reserves the right TO mine
coal for the benefit of the army and
navy, or for the operation of the gov
eminent railroads in Alaska.
Leases will be made in blocks OF 40
acres or multiples of that amount, not
exceeding 1850 acres altogether in any
ono lease, and to run not more than
so years Proceeds from leases will be
useable only to reimburse the govern
ment for building the Alaskan Rail
way.
Said Secretary Lane tonight:
1.-THE enactment of the bill is an
achievement Of which Congress may
he proud, for it was brought about
without bitterness and without par
tisanshin IT is a victory for sensi-
BILE monopoly policy.

LANDSLIDE ON
CANAL STOPS
ALL TRAFFIC

Panama, Oct ia serious landslide
on the east side of the Panama canal
north of Gold hill occurred during the
night. Traffic has been of necessity
stopped and Col. Goethals could not
say today when the canal would again
be navigable. 1t Is hoped that a few
days will prove sufficient time in which
to reopen the waterway. A prelimi-
nary survey today showed that the
slide extended for a distance of about
1900 feet north Of Gold hill and started
on a line from 65 to 100 feet from the
edge of the canal. 1t is not possible
as yet to estimate the amount Of rock
and dirt that entered the channel, but
it is declared that it must have been
many thousand cubic yards. 1t was
first reported that there had been
movements from both sides OF the
canal but this proved to be untrue.
A large mass of trap rock. mixed
with loose earth, sloughed into the
channel. There was no disturbance at
Cucaracha.
Colonel Goethals declared today that
he was unable to say when the chan.
mel would again be navigable but he
hoped 1t would be within few days.
An accurate survey Is being made to
determine the extent, OF the dredging
necessary. The debris now virtually
fills the channel to the west bank and
the bottom OF the channel also is be-
ing forced up by the weight along the
east bank.
Four vessels at Cristobal and two at
Balboa have been delayed. awaiting
the opening of a new channel. All the
available dredges already have been
put to work to clear out the water
way.
