Plan to Establish Government.

That the Mexican eonstitutionalists
are liking serious preparations for
the establishment of civil government
in the states occupied by their forces
was stated today by Aguirre Berlanga.
lawyer of Saltillo. capital Of the state
of Coahuila. who has just been sent to
Washington by Gen Carranza to study
questions of american civil administra-
tIon and court procedure
I came direct from Sonora" said Mr..
Berlanga today. and upon the com
pletion OF my work will prepare a re
port for Gen. Carranza When l left
Sonora, which has been in the hands OF
the consttutonalists for eight months,
there was no sign of war. the courts
were performing their usual functions,
the schools were open and business men
we're hard at work. The same conditions
will soon prevail in Chihuahua and other
states. The mass of the people are
giving US loyal support.
''Of course our campaign is hampered
by our inability to purchase arms in
the United States. but We hope that Pres
ldent Wilson Will soon raise the embargo.
Huerta has several ports at which foreign
steamers touch, and is able constantly TO
repleniSh his supply of arms and ammu-
milton. while all our territory borders on
the United States. If We had arms we
could solve the problem quicker and
lessen the horrors of war and the de-
struction OF property.
Stories of friction between constitu-
fionalist leaders are false
Says Rebels Protect Foreigners.
I. G. Lakeland, an American engaged
in the cattle business in the state of
Chihuahua, came TO Washington today.
He said that Gen. Pancho villa and his
followers are protecting Americans and
other foreigners. He told one instance of
how last summer an American, Bert
Griffin. was killed by Mexican bandits
under "Ei Mocho''-the cripple-and of
how Gen Villa executed the entire band
in consequence He was In Juarez when
IL was captured by Villa. He declared
that all saloons were Immediately closed
and order enforced. He added that Villa
is doing his best 10 rid the territory con-
troiled by him of bandits.

on Munitions of War.
CONSTITUTIONALISTS SEEK
ONLY EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
Government Said Today to Be Sc
riously Considering Plan-Anx-
ious to End Fight in Mexico.

President Wilson is expected soon to
grant the request of the Mexican consti-
tutioualists that the embargo on the ex-
portation OF munitions of war from the
United States into Mexico be raised. Al
though he and Secretary Bryan have not
finally decided on this step, IT was learn
ed today that the government here is
seriously considering it,
The fact that the Huerta government is
having little difficulty in getting all the
said to be the chief argument which is
sFaying the President toward the view
that the constitutionalists should be al
lowed an equal opportunity,
Another contributing factor in the sit
nation Is the failure of the arrival of a
definite crisis in the Mexican trouble as
quickly as was expected by the President
when he delivered his latest message on
the subject to Congress He is said to
he anxious TO end the lighting in Mexico
as soon as possib BILE.
Ready TO Support the President.
Inquiry among prominent adnlinistra-
ton officials has disclosed the fact that
practically the entire cabinet, many
members of the foreign relations COM
Inittee of the Senate and many of the
leaders Of Congress generally are ready
10 support the President should he by
proclamation raise the embargo on arms
The constitutionalists continue to de-
clare that the trouble they are expert
encing III getting arms is the only thing
delaying their throwing Huerta out of
power. They assert that they have
plenty of money with which to purchase
arms and ammunition, if they are al
lowed to get them in the United States.
