|, Another ''mystery'' is said TO hang
over the federal building insofar as
the investigation Of the MeCarn Me-
Bride war, which is being carried on
by. the federal grand jury, Is CONCERN
-ed,s according 70 street story which
gained currency yesterday.
"A eoilplf e 6K y ~ fknleh were noticed
yesterday sounding the federal court
room walls There was much mystery
about their work and, for a time, no.
body went into the hall Of justice.
They're trying TO find out il q
dictagraph, or possibly a number Of
these mecnanieal eavesdroppers, have
been secreted In the walls, y sail a
knowing one who hung around, trying
to get next to what was doing
/" You see, there is lot Of talk
going around about what transpires
when the grand jury is in session. They
say there is leak somewhere. The
transoms have been closed, but still
the leak exists aud now il Is surmised
that somebody has stuck a dictagraph
or two in the walls. This explains the
leak, - 81
Later, just what the workmen were
about, il was discovered that sounding
wires were being put in just under the
ceiling of the court room. The acoustic
properties of the court room are moi
the best and il is calculated that with
these sounding wires speech expressed
in well.modulated tone will be dis
tinetly heard by those present, There
will then be no necessity to talk SC
loud that those in the corridor, out
side. will hear. -. ,..
This seems 10 explode the dictagrapl
mystery. ~.

Ell PAS0, Texas, June l9.--( Asso-
ciated Press by Federal wireless)
The differences between Carranza and
Villa came to an open split yesterday
afternoon, villa notifying his former
chief that he would submit TO no fur
ther orders, but would himself proceed
to march against the City Of Mexico.
This open defiance brought Carranza
to terms, with the result that while the
breach has been healed SO far as open
hostilities are concerned and Villa is
triumphant, hereafter he is to have a
free hand in the operations in the field
and has become in reality what he has
been practically, the leader Of the Con-
stitutionalists.
There has been bad blood between
Carranza and his leading general for
the past several weeks and the clash for
final authority has been expected.
oarranza's order Resented.
The latest and most offensive order
of Carranza, which Villa declared was
aimed directly at him, was the appoint
ment of General Pan6lo Natera to be
commander in chief Of the newly Great.
ed military division Of Central Mexico.
Prior to this act Carranza declared that
the military policy Of the Constitution
alist government was that commanding
generals n one liyision who ave-
obliged to enter the division Of another
must be subordinate 10 the command
ing general Of that division.
The effect Of this order was to make
Villa subordinate TO Natera in all the
fighting which was TO be done from
then on, aud would rob him of the
glory of taking Mexico City, il the capi.
tai ever Is taken by force Cf arms.
Strictly speaking, Villa has been com
mander Of the division of the north,
which takes in all the country from the
border to Torreon and from the Sonora
TO the Coahuila state lines. What fight
ing remains to be done is to be at Ia
catecas, San Lnis Potosi, Qneretaro and
Mexico City, all Of which places were
in the newly created military division
Villas Army Ready to Move.
II has been the ambition of Villas
life, ever since the murder Of Madero,
to take the City Of Mexico. If the
capital ever is taken 1t will have to be

lieved possible that Villa ever would
consent to his victorious army being
commanded by anybody but himself

Another appointment extremely dis
tasteful to Villa was that of Enrique
G. Llorente to be chief Of the Oonstitu
tionalist commercial agents. Most Of
this work in the past has been done by
Villas close friend and personal rep
resentative, Lazadro da 10 Cara, who
under the new appointment would be
subordinate to Llorente, an out and out
Carranza man.
The latest discord came in the fact
that Carrnnza refused to allow Villa tc
receive the full cargo of ammunition
recently landed at Tampieo, although
the funds to pay for IL had been con
tributed, foreibly or otherwise, by tho
vil.aistas. The Carranza agents turned
