The corn market closed slightly higher

Officials in Mexico City Or ganize Body to Endeavor to Adjust Present Differ ences Between Gen. Villa and CarranZa
HOPE TO AVERT
 FURTHER CLASHES
Where the Conference Will Be Held is Not Made Pub lie, But Torreon Has Been Suggested as the Proper Place
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcH1

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 2S.-A pa- ,cification committee, organized among officials here in an endeavor to ad- just the differences between Car ranza and Villa, departed with the immediate object of reaching the nearest point where it can consult the generals of the division of the north. They will try to arrange a cessation of hositilities and secure an agreement which will prevent further clashes between the factions.
 Where the conference will be held was not made public Torreon had been suggested as the most likely place. All revolutionary chiefs will be kept fully informed of the pro- ceedings of the conference. It is learned from high authority that the commission believes both Carranza and Villa are surrounded by elements .prejudicial to continued peace and that the delegates consider one of their principal tasks will be to elimi- nate what they regard as the faction responsible for the recent disturb ances.

Villa Not a Candidate

WASHINGTON, Sept 2S.-Formal announcement from Villa that he will not be a candidate for president or vice president of Mexico was received at the state department through Con- sular Agent Carothers at Chihuahua ,Cty. General Funston informed the war department that Zapata, the southern rebel leader, had lodged a protest with him against the surren- der of Vera Cruz to the Carranza government. Zapata made it plain he will not recognize Carranza as the first chief of the constitutionalists
 Villas dispatch greatly strengthened hopes of officials here for a peaceful adjustment of the difficulties between the two leaders. Special significance is attached to Villas assurance, be-
 cause it followed so closely the de- claration of Carranza that he would not be a candidate if Villa would give a similar promise and that all mili- tary leaders would be eliminated as presidential possibilities. The state department tonight was without in formation from Mexico City, but it is generally believed in official cir cles that if Carranza resigns on Thursday as it has been declared he will. the convention called by him for that date will name as his successor, Fernando Calderon, whose selection has been demanded by Villa.

State Committeeman from Yavapai Says Party is in Strong Position-Encour- aging Word from Other Sections of State

Progressives from different parts of the state who have come to attend the meeting of the party council 1 bring word of an awakening and pro- mise of a heavy progressive vote. As the active campaign approaches the 1 enthusiasm of the members of the party rises and men who had not previously been allied with the move ment declare their allegiance to pro- gressivism.
 Ben SilVerman, member of the state committee from Yavapai county says | that the party is in excellent shape 1 there. A full county ticket, with the exception of candidates for county 1 judge tax collector and treasurer are 1 in the field and there is an excellent prospect of the election of several of the candidates. The candidates for the board of supervisors stand a par !ticularly good chance of election. There is an element in that county which has hitherto always tried, fre- Iquently with success, to secure repre- sentation on the board and now and then it has captured the entire board. The voters are determined that it tion and they regard the progressive candidates as those most certainty free from the influence of that ele- ment.
 MT. Silverman says also, that there is little doubt that the progressives
 will send one senator and one repre- sentative to the legislature
 David Benshimol, state committed man from Cochise, confirms previous | information of the excellent state of the party in that county and Paul E.
 Fernald of Tucson says that the pro- gressive state ticket may count upon Istrong support from Pima. Pima has a full county ticket and the mem
 bers of it have confidence of their
 election They are men chosen with reference to their personal qualities
 and they will attract the votes of
 many who are not members of the progressive party.

HostiIities Delayed

FL PASO, Sept. 2S.-The beginning of actual hostilities between the di- vided constitutionalist army awaited tonight CarranZa's answer to Villa, who has demanded that he resign in as the first chief So far as could be learned here, however there is no actual armistice and both CarranZa' s and Villas forces continued prepara- tions and movements toward each other.
 The condition of the railroads and other communications between Chi huahua, Villas headquarters, and Mexico City probably will delay ne- gotiations between the northern lead CTS spokesman, Alvara Obregon and other Carranza representatives who are expected to confer at Aguas Cali entes. The meeting cannot take place for several days, it is estimated From all sides came reports of strong pressure, aside from Villas demand which are being brought to bear on Carranza that he resign at once as the first chief of the revolutionary party.
 Santos Chocano, Peruvian poet and publicist, who for several months has been travelling with both Carranza and Villa today telegraphed the for mer that as a friend of the revolu-
 tion he deemed it highly necessary
 that he resign at once Partisans oi CalderOn have sprung up from all
 quarters and representatives of the
 old federal or .cientifico" party de- clared his installation as provisional
 president would be the best means of assuring at least temporary peace. J. L. Canova, who has been acting
 as investigator for the Washington state department, arrived here today from the south. George c. Carothers

 mained at Villas headquarters ir l Chihuahua. Although optimism is the | keynote of expressions of the Carran-
