HUERTA AND

Left Mexican Capital Wednes day Night After Resigning
 --Huerta On Spree.
United Press Dispatch.

United Press Dispatch.
 Vera Cruz, Mexico, July 16.- Victoriano Huerta's dynasty ended in a big. carousal the heavy drinking starting last Saturday after the appointment of Dr. Carbajal as minister of foreign relations. Sunday Dr. Carbajal expected Huerta to re- sign Monday, but the dictator travelled from cafe to cafe with a resignation far from mind. l Monday evening Carbajal ask ed Huerta to keep his word and sign, threatening to have the capital if he refused. Huerta replied My greets won't let me" Carbajal then appealed to Gen. eral Blanquett.
 ] Tuesday Blanquett urged Huer- ta to assure Carbajal that he would abdicate. Huerta was ob- durate and Blanquett offered his own resignation, insisting that General Mature also resign if Huerta remained. Blanquett threatened to take the army with him and according to rum or to arrest Huerta.
 Huerta thundered against such a course and Blanquett left.
 Wednesday Blanquett renew ed his threat and Huerta realiz- ing that Blanquett would do as threatened, finally resigned. 1 The families of both Huerta and Blanquett arrived at Puerto, Mexico early today upon a train guarded by fourteen hundred soldiers. The whereabouts of Huerta and Banquet who left the capital last night are un- known.

the support of the world that al
 partisan government cannot live
 long The administration is
 waiting to see what his choice
 will be, before the attitude of Uncle Sam is outlined by the 1 White House and state depart
 ment.
 It is learned that the presi-1 dent is determined that no gov ernment shall be recognized by the United States which is not representative of all the Mexi- can people and pledged to re-es- tabish a constitutional govern ment as early as possible. The powers intend to withhold re- cognition of Huerta's successor until the United States acts. If Carranza endeavors to establish 9 broad patriotic government protecting his political oppon- |ents and foreigners, the adminis- tration will influence bankers to furnish funds to assist in re-es- tablishing peace. If a military dictatorship is established it will refuse recognition and aid in se- curing funds. The administra- tion believes that Carranza will keep his promises.

PEACEFUL ENTRANCE IS
 PROBABLE.
United Press Dispatch.

United Press Dispatch.
 Mexico City, July 16.-With a commission en route Provisional President Carbajal is endeavor- ing to arrange a peaceful en- trance of the Constitutionalists into the capital. President Car bajal today faced a delicate task of placating the different fac tions in the forming of a provis- ional cabinet and preserving peace in the capital until the Constitutionalists assume con- trol and the government is capa- ble of guaranteeing peace to the entire nation.
 Whether Huerta and Banquet are bound for Puerto, Mexico or Salina Cruz is unknown. The capital is quiet but an under current of excitement exists re- sulting from the circulation of rumors that Huerta has sent the Juohilo Indians to the noun tains to be joined by the fam ous 29th Infantry and a cargo of arms. Headed by the 29tk Infantry, the Indians are believ. ed to be in revolution to place
 Felix Diaz at the head of the government. It is also rumoret that the Pueblo Indians would join the revolt.

States Cotton Crop Spotted Special to Independent.

Speclal 10 lnQepenQonL.
 Little Rock, July 16.-Cotton experts of Little Rock say the cotton crop throughout the state lis the most spotted that has ever been known, and it is difficult to strike an average. In a few sec tions where rains have fallen re- gently, the prospects are very good, while in other sections, probably. one-half the cotton area of the state, it ranges from that to very bad. It is estimated that 75 per cent is a very con- servaive estimate at this time, and there is no chance for the state to make near the crop it did last year. On account of the excessive drouth, germination was poor, and the stand conse- quently thin and uncertain. Thousands of acres of cotton have been abandoned and plowed up. Only in the vicinity of Lit tie Rock, and up the Rock Island and the Arkansas River West is the crop approaching what it should be.

 Juarez, Mexico, July Is. A conference at midnight between General Villa and General Bell on the international bridge is believed to have an important bearing on the main situation though neither would discuss the meeting. General Villa to- day refused to say whether Car bajaPs occupancy of the presi- dents chair would mean con- tinuance of the Constitutional ists' military operations.
 Other Constitutionalist officers however, believe that military operations are over and that all future developments will come through diplomacy.
 Carranza's legal adviser Anna dor, said the Constitutionalists expect an invitation from Car bajal to accept control of the na- tional government within the next few days and predicted that Carranza would be in Mex ico City inside of two weeks.

became one Ul us CnaFttT Hiefu- bers.
 Mir. Paul was at this time in the service of the internal rev. enue department of the govern ment, position that he held for nine years. The family later moved to Gravette and from thence to Siloam Springs, of which town he was mayor for several years.
 In 1892 he had been elected as grand warden of the l. O. O. F. of Arkansas, and two years later was given the highest office in the gift of the grand lodge, that of grand master. In 1900, he was elected grand secretary of the order, a position which he held for 13 years or until Nov ember, 1913. He was grand sec- retary of the grand encamp- ment at the time of his death.
 The family have made their home in this city for the past five years, MT. Paul being hon. ored here with election as may or in 1912. The franchise se- cured by the Cooperative Eiec- tric Company, under which the city secures it's street service free and private rates to con- sumers as low as in other cities of this class, is a lasting monu- ment to his administration and to his public spirited efforts to solve a problem that was facing the city.
 The deceased was a member of the Masonic, Elks and Knights of Pythias lodges and a mem Der of the Christian church of this city. He was also a member of the executive board of the Odd Fellows Home for many
 
 years and the joyful Fourth and happy Christmas of these home less boys and girls was ever as- sured through his interest, char ity and love of children. And they too, loved this good man. They called him familiarly 'eUn- cle Paul" and the news of his demise doubtless brought tears to the eyes of these little folks, for whom he sacrificed his own pleasure to bring sunshine and opportunity to them.
 The departed scitizen, whose public spirit was responsive to every call, loyal to every need and enthusiastic in every duty was as tenderhearted as man can be. His sympathy was ever with the one in need; there were no strings to his purse when his heart was touched and the milk |of human kindness was exempli. fled in his life. He trusted oth. CTS as absolutely and implicitly as child, he was ever loyal tt his friends and devoted to his family.
 He is survived by wife anC one child, Mrs. Mayme Paul Mel

KAISER RISKS ALL
TO OPEN WAY FOR
MARCH ON CAPITAL
(By William Philip Sims.)

Paris, Aug 31-"Fightng,' the war office announced
today "is progressing along our northern line.
"The Germans plainly are utilizing all their immense
resources to break down the allies defense but our
position is stronger than ever.
"The French continue to advance along the Lorraine
frontier"
The effort however, by vigorous French offensive
movement in the SOUTH to compel the shifting of part OF
Gemanys northern forces in that direction apparently
had failed.
1t was believed certain that the kaiser had staked
everything on quick investment of Paris.
The French authorities seemed confident of their
ability to prevent this.
"The enemys losses large out of all proportion to
the allies" said War Minister Milerand "The fighting
has heightened his lines of communications and shortened
ours The result has been advantageous to The Ger
mans are facing also in the strongest positions we have
held yet Our ranks are filled.
"Along the Lorraine frontier the French have met
every German move with counter attack the advantage
always our side.
"The enemy everywhere is losing more heavily than
we"
Nevertheless General Galleni military governor OF
the Paris district has completed all preparations for
banishing from the city in the event Of siege everyone
mot entitled to remain
