The publication yesterday OF more let
tiers OF Capt Sherburne c. Hopkins. Wash
inston lobbyist. agent for Henry Clay
Pierce and one time adviser to Gen. Car.
rama. did not evoke any comment from
Mr.. Pierce, whose scheme to form a new
Mexican railway system went to smash
in Hopkins's hands.
r.. n. Brown. president OF the National
Railways OF Mexico was too busy plan
ming to meet the interest on bonds to
talk about the danger that threatened
his lines. especially when the danger WAS
all over.
Charles r. Flint. who ships arms to
the Mexican revolutionists and Is on init
mate terms with Carranza's representa-
tives. partly admitted that he Is trying
to fix up plan to finance the new gov
eminent TO be set up In Mexico when the
Constituencies finally enter the capital
Mr.. Flint won't tell anything about his
endeavors at this time
The additional letters presented in yes
terday's New York Herald contained more
assertions by Capt. Hopkins that John
Lind. President Wilson's personal repre-
sentative in Mexico, had told him how our
Governments embargo on arms might be
lodged. Hopkins again expresses to Gen.
Carranza his distrust OF Mr.. Bryan and
his conviction that. troops having been
landed at Vera Cruz President Wilson
would permit no further step OF aggres-
sion al Tampico or elsewhere.

Navy Department order. however that
brings nobody good. and the army and
navy clubs in the large coast cities have
profited by this one.
For several days past these clubs have
received unprecedented quantities OF
"booze" and many an officer will have
unlimited credit In this line at the club
during the hot summer days. Most of
the stores OF wines on board the ships
have been sent to the officers clubs In
anticipation OF the order going into effect
For some time II was thought that
President Wilson would have 10 sign the
order before It could be put into effect.
IL has turned out that the authority OF
the Secretary OF the Navy was suffcient
TO make the navy dry. The Officers of the
Gunboat Dolphin. formerly the yacht Of
the Secretary OF the Navy. which has
been locked ut the Washington Navy
Yard for several days, disposed OF most
of their store of wines to their friends
before the ship sailed to-day for Hamp-

Huerta, and that American interests were
giving to the cause OF the Constitutional
lists. This also he declined to discuss
further than 10 say that the interview
with Frank Dodson OF st. Paul gave
good insight 10 the situation. Mr.. Dodson
said that the Pearson interests had had
things much their own way under Dlaz

day to the effect that Gen. Filipe
Angeles. recently deposed Minister Of

tionalist army, has been put to death

Official advices from the Carran2a

missed on charge of INSTRUMENTATION
and treason. At first he was removed
from the ofilcia. family of the Con-
stitutionalist Government and assigned
to a command in the army at the de-
mand of Gen. villa. Gen. Carranza
says he caused SO much trouble and
was so instrumental in poisoning Villas
mind that he was stripped Of his COM
mand.
While there Is no Official confirmation
OF the execution, Juan T. Burns, Con-
stitutionalist Consul and business agent
here. who is in close touch with both
Csrranza and villa, says he does not
doubt that the willy Angeles has faced

VILLA HAS OWN JUNTA.
Indications That General Has Set Tn
Quarters In Washington.

Ell PAso. Tex. June 3O.-The tense
situation in the Constitutionalist ranks
Ia reflected by the attitude OF the repre-
sentatives Of Carranza and villa at this
point.
While both sides declare for publication
that the relations between the Supreme
Chief and his best fighting general are
strained, they insist that they have not
reached the point where there will be de-
cislon by arms.
villa came up to Torreon only to 20 to
rarral to attend the military funeral Of
Gen. Trinidad Rodriguez. who was killed
at Zacatecas, say his agents. villa has
come north to confer with CarranZa' =
representatives at Torreon. say the other
men, and II will all be smoothed down by
the elimination OF Gen. Felipe Angeles
II Is noted, however, that Lazaro de la
Cara and A. Farias, Villas commercial
agents, have begun to talk TO Washington
over a leased telegraph wire, as II he had
started an independent junta OF his own
ut the capital. They are sending and re-
ceiving messages for hours at time, but
they will not say with whom they talk.
The explanation of the Carranzistas Ii
that villa has organized "A lobby at Wash
ington in order To- have the embargo on
arms lifted and that he is not supplant-
ing the official junta of the Constitutional
lists
Americans arriving at FL Paso from
Torreon say that before starting south
for the Zacatecas fight villa expressed
himself forclbly on the arms question and
other things to some OF them. He declared
that II IL had not been for Carranzas
meddling, for his strong anti-American
note after the American occupation OF
Vera Cruz the embargo would never have
been reestablished.
Carranza at the present moment con
trolls the only source of supply OF arms
for the Constltutonalsts Tamplco. II
would not surprise Americans along the
border TO hear any day that Gen. Con
out the Supreme Chief,
villa will not go to Monterey to talk
to Gen. Carranza. Both sides admit this.
but they are not so sure that he will not
see some representative of the chief at
Torreon.
The only word to come from Villa to-
day was a denial of the Breceda state
ment that George c. Carothers State
Department representative. Is influencing
him lie declares that Carothers never
made an attempt to influence him. but has
attended to the mission on which he was
sent.

AMERICANS THREATENED.
Admiral Mayo Acts on HOstiIe De-
monstrattons In Tampico.

GALVESTON. Tex, June 30.--Word was
received In Nueva Laredo to-day that sew
cral hundred Americans In the Panuco oil
fields near Tampico have been so molested
and threatened by Mexicans that they are
seeking passage to the United States. Mex
leans there and In the city of Tampico
are so opposed to Americans that II Is
thought best TO get them out OF the coun-
tiny.
At the urgent request OF the American
Consul and American citizens Admiral
Mayo OF the American fleet has visited
provisional GOV. De Lara and requested
that attention be given to the matter. Ac-
cord!ng to dispatches an American family
was driven from the Panuco oil fields
yesterday by a band OF Mexicans, and
others were told to leave the country at
once.
Gov. De Lara has promised protection.
but the anti-American feeling Is so strong
that trouble Is expected. All the Amer
leans are we'll armed.
Gen. Carranza has sent to each military
chief, Including villa. a copy OF the pro-
posals submitted by President Wilson for
mediation. but as yet no replies have
been received. These replies were ex-
pected last night, and the fact that no
replies have been resolved Is believed
by Carranza agents here TO mean that the
Constitutional chief objects 10 terms OF
the United States.
From reliable sources II was learned to-
day that Gen. Carranza will delay the ac-
ceptance OF mediation. even II the military
chiefs are willing. until the fall OF Mexico
city, when the Constitutionalists will be
in absolute power and In pospiton to
