MEXICO CITY, Sept. 29.-Despite
the demands Of Gen. Villa and Villas
generals that Pres. Carranza resign
the indications today were that Gen
Carranza would remain in the national
palace at least until the convention of
constitutionalist generals or their dele
gates is held here next month.
Gen. Carranza believes that no
other plan of action on his part would
be consistent with the "Guadaloupe
agreement" Of which Villa is one Of
the signers.
Gen. Carranza and his advisors re-
NAMED at the palace late last night
working upon plan of campaign and
drafting a reply TO the following tele-
gram which CaTranza has just made
public:
ITO Don VenUstiano Carranza, first
chief Of the constitutionalist army and
in charge of the executive power,
Mexico City, We desire to make
every effort to prevent the enemies of
the cause Of liberty, who stoop to any
medium that stains the republic, from
prOfiting by such circumstances as
seem imminent. We also desire to
make every sacrifice before putting
our fatherland in danger of foreign
Intervention"
Here's Villas Offer.
The failure of all those noble
hopes and all these generous efforts
will lead us into a fratricidal struggle
into which we would be compelled TO
enter as our duty.
(Note-Part Of the message is here
stricken out by the Mexican censor.)
Gen. Villa has telegraphed to all
our dear brothers to cease the hostile
attitude Of the division Of the north
as soon as you in an outburst of pa
tritism, and self abengatiOn and turn
over the supreme command to the in
cOrruptible liberal, Fernando Iglesias
Calderon, who, by his talents, energy
and clean antecedents will be a guar
antee for the fruits Of our revolution.
He will know how to lead the repub-
lie in the paths of honor and glory
and will never prove a traitor to the
ideas of real democracy.
Gen. Villa has declared categOric-
ally that the whole Of this division
Cthe army Of the north) will uphold
firmly Senior Iglesia's band and in a
burst Of high patriotism Gen. Villa
has already announced TO the world

French Statement is Laconic.
Beyond the fact that furious fight
ing was in progress between the Ger
mans and the allies all along the line
from the SOmme TO the heights OF the
Meuse, little was known today OF the
progress Of the worlds greatest battle
owing 10 the stringent censorship in
sisted upon by Earl Kitchener, the
English secretary OF war.
The French war office has suddenly
become very laconic and in its state
ment issued just before midnight last
night, ii gives only one movement
This is the Germans have renewed
their efforts 70 break the French lines
near Rheims and that the invaders
attacks there have been very yio-
lent.
The only reference this statement
made TO fighting upon the critical end
Of the battle line was that that
conditions there are favorable to the
allies"
Unofficial Reports.
Unoficial reports from the front
show this:
That there is hard fighting around
Cambrai where the Germans are try
ing to Offset the growing vigOr OF the
French attacks: that the Germans
have redOubled their efforts 10 weaken
the allies center near Rheims IN order
10 draw French troops from the re-
zion OF the Oise and that the Ger
man operations along the Meuse. al
though carried on with the strength
OF desperation, are beng checked by
the superior numbers OF the French" ,"
