ary measures to protect the railroads,
giving orders to discontinue temporarily
service over them to the north of Aguas
Calientes. Thereupon Villa asked the
f1rst chief for an immediate explanation
of this act.
"CaraInza answered that before he
would vouchsafe him an explanation,
he desired on Villas part an eXplana-
ton of Villas conduct in unwarrant-
ably holding General Obregon.
Instead of villa giving CarranZa an
explanation. he informed him that he
had given orders to hold Obregon at
Torreon. and that the forces under
Villas command would not be repre-
sented at the national convention to be
held in Mexico in October.
I'm conclusion, he said he no longer
recognized CarranZa as the first chief OF
the constituticnalists."
May Prevent Hostilities.
Carranza hopes to avoid using the
constitutionalist army to strike back at
Villas insult to General Obregon. con-
stitutionalist headquarters said today.
Villa is backed in his opposition to the
present constitutionalist government by
a large number of followers. who were
given land which Villa seized. the state
ment said, while pointing out that there
is practically no danger Of the followers
of former President Huerta siding with
Villa, since the Huertistas are begin

accomplished under such a system of
representation.
The conflict is not regarded with par
today. Authorities feel that its cut
come will be the peace they have
sought. To this end they were disin-
clined to take a strong hand to stop
the present difficulties.
Conflict of Ideas.
In Mexico since Carranza assumed
control of affairs at Mexico City. the
same old conflict of ideas has developed
the conflict of desires between the
landholding class. which would retain
what they have. and the poems, who de-
mand redistribution of the land so
that all might have opportunity 10 work
out th/e political salvation. Carranza
himself Is a large landowner. Villa, ac-
cording to the views of officials here,
has realized that unless the land Te-
the new government. the landed aris-
tocracy will continue supreme.
The first important action by the Adj
ministration in the new and admittedly
serious situation was the order TO
George c. Carothers. special agent of
L,
Chihuahua with General Villa. Caroth-
ers is to sound out Villa and ask the
revolving chieftain to consider other
methods than hostilities to settle his
dispute with Carranza.

New York, and possibly John Lind 10

Complications Increased.
Presence of American troops at Vera
Cruz increased the complications of the
new situation. With Villa controlling

advantage IL he moves his army against
Carranza-occupation of Vera Cruz by
the Americans shuts Off CarranZa's

except through Puerto Mexico. De-
mands from CarranZa that the order for
evacuation of Vera Cruz be speedily
carried out were believed imminent.
The constitutionalist headquarters here
is in receipt of official word that villa
has formally broken with Carranza and
will start a revolutionary movement
against the present head OF the govern
ment- The break followed the arrest
by villa Of General Obregon, one of
Carranza's advisers. Evidently fearing
military action by Villa. Carranza i'm
mediately ordered service discontinued
on railroads which Villa might use in
the Transportation of troops. Villa is
said to have 10000 troops and great
quantities of ammunition. The formal
statement from constitutionalist head
quarters announcing the break between
Carranza and villa is as follows:

Contrary to Villas denial that he

latest official reports received from

Could Meet Needs.

BY gradually drawing in these depos-

ment could meet its needs without ex-
acting more tax.
NaLy in both houses believe that If
more money must be had, the equitable
Way to raise ii is through a bond issue.
That could be paid off in normal times.
Others hold that the way TO raise any
more revenue that may be needed is to
raise il on whisky, beer, wines and to-
haCCO.
An effort will be made in the Senate
TO have more tax put on whisky. The
House gag rule has made il impossible
for such an amendment to be submitted
TO the House. If II were submitted II
would probably carry and the believers
IN whisky tax assert that one Of the
reasons for the House gag rule is To
pI,vent such an amendment being voted
on by the House. However, in the Sen
