Washington Does Not Expect Mexi-
cans to Yield.

WAsHINGroN. June is.-The tenor Of
the reply OF the American delegates TO
tho announcement made public by the
Huerta representatives tonight occa-
stoned no surprise In Washington. The
American plan as disclosed is almost to
the letter as forecast In Washington des-
patches OF the past several days.
The American position Is assumed as
backing to the last inch the Constitution
alist contention that none but a Consti-
tutionalist shall be chosen as the pro-
vislonal President OF Mexico pending a
general election. The announcement by
Justice Lamar and Mr., Lehman Is ac-
copied here as marking the gnd OF
further mediatory negotiations at the
Canadian resort except in the event of
a recession from the designated posi-
ton of the Huerta delegates Of their own
motion or upon instruction to them from
Gen Huerta
II Is regarded as In the last degree
unlikely that the delegation headed by
Senior Rabasa will back down and the
end OF the mediation proceedings Is eX-
pected almost Immediately,

FROM VILLA
is SERVED UPON CARRANZA
First Chief" Is Called Upon to Keep His Hands
Off Army With Promise of Acknowledgment
as Civil Government Head.

and restore normal government conditions
where possible Villa does not even ask
II to provide funds for his army.
No official statement has been forth
coming from either side. but the condl-
tons that have arisen have become pretty
generally known from partisans of both.
Villa has no idea OF replacing Carranza
as Supreme Chief or In any way HARM
ing him, IL Is stated positively. He has
merely informed Carranza that he got
along better with his military campaigns
before Carranxa came into his territory
and that he positively will have no in
reference from him now.
Villa has merely taken back the pow
ers he surrendered TO Carranza when the
latter came on Villas invitation from
Sonora at the time Villa was in a very
tight diplomatic corner as a result OF the
death OF William 3. Benton. Now that
CarTanzs and the rebel cabinet have on
their shoulders the negotiations regarding
Benton and Bauch Villa does not need
them further and has determined to rid
himself OF their Interference with his cam
paigns.
1t IL declared tonight by Villas friends
that he can bring Gen. Panhlo Natera to
his view and that Natera, whose promo
ton over the head OF villa by Carranza
caused the break. will meekly Join
villas army His recent severe defeat
at Zacatecas is reported to have made
him very meek.
villa is still imbued with the idea also
OF removing Carranza from Interference
with the mediation proceedings at Mag
ara Falls. As head OF the army he knows
he will be powerful enough to over
rule Carranza. villa proposes TO desg-
nate who shall be provisional President
OF Mexico In event OF the ousting Of
Huerta-
villa will. at least. prevent Carranza
from obstructing the road 20 peace. for
he Is not so particular about the choice
Of a provisional President so long as he
Is a man not wholly an enemy OF the
Constitutionalists. and In his new posi-
ton he can force Carranza to accept this
view. Carranza Is known 20 be very
anxious to be provisional President but
Villa and many other Mexicans feel that
he la not the man for the place and IL
would be impossible for him 10 succeed In
paclfying a certain faction OF Mexicans,
just as IL has been for Huerta TO pacify
the rebels
Gen Felipe Angeles. CarranzRs former
minister OF war and now chief OF Villa 4
artillery, Is looked upon by villa with
great favor because he is a Constitution
alist and also a soldier. Villa believes
Angeles would be acceptable to the mill
tsry faction in Mexico as well as to the
rebel faction, while the Diaz and Huerta
militariHts would never he reconciled %
Carranza as provisional President.
Mere Jealousy and lust for power on the
part OF Villa are, according to those in a
position to know. far from being the sole
motives which inspire his attitude toward
Carranza.

BIG PENNSYLVANIA CUT.
Railroad Will save 10 Per Cent. on
Payroll This Summer.

PHILADELPHIA, June ls.-As . direct
result of the deer ease In freight tonnage
and passenger traffic and in line with
the policy Of retrenchment inauguratsd
last winter the Pennsylvania Railroad has
evolved a new scheme OF saving whereby
II Is expected that 10 per cent. will be
Topped Oft the total payroll Of the office
departments here.
Instead OF laying on a certain number
OF ofhce employees during the summer
as has been done in previous years. the
management decided to divide the force Of
each department into squads and TO lay
on the members OF each group in turn for
three or four days each month. The
plan has caused little dissatisfaction
among the employees. as all agree that
losing three days pay a month Is better
than being laid OF altogether.
Every employee losing one-tenth OF his
months salary makes 10 per cent. cu
In the total payroll, and as the scheme
has gone into effect all over the system,
the saving will he big. About 500 clerks
In the accounting, purchasing. auditing
and allied departments In Broad Street
Station and other Offices here will be af-
fected.

CONFLICT PATCHED UP.
Dispatches 10 Washington Conarm
viIla-Carransa Agreement.

WASHINGTON, June is.-Despatches re-
ceived at the State Department to-day
from American consular representatives
In the northern States tend to confirm
the statement that the conflict between
villa and Carranza had been patched up
and that the military leader OF the revo-
luton was on his way to tho frcnt TO
assume command AT Zacatecas. No re-
ports were received at the Department
Of the serving OF an ultimatum on Car
rama by Villa that the army must b.
absolutely divorced from politics
Administration officials apparently are
convinced that villa has returned to a
nominal state OF subordInation to the
supreme CHIEF OF the revolution.
They are by no means confident that
the Villa-Carranza alteration will not
crop UP again at any minute and further
change the complexion OF the Government
OF northern Mexico.
President Wilson has no evidence that
the Incidents growing out OF Villas tenn
porary characterization will alter the
policy OF that party toward mediation.
