Despite the assurance of the consti-

himself, and the echoes of these assur-

the fact remains that there Is no GER

so that q course of action may be map

Mr., Carothers is also taking up with
Secretary Bryan questions affecting the

planned more than once to the United

these points.
Looks Bad for villa.
The outlook regarding Villa Is oonsid-

the secret importation of arms into
northern Mexico by Villa. There is a gen.
eral belief here that he will break with
Carranza before the Mexican question is
even temporarily adjusted.
