Mexico City. Mex, Oct. Charging
that the rebellion in northern Mexico
was instigated "by the so-ealled cien-
tificos and our conquered enemies
Gen. Venustiano Carranza in his state
ment to the convention of Constitu-
tionalist leaders here yesterday Of
fered to resign as first chief IL a
majority of the military chiefs desired
1t, but declared he would not submit
ito a group of chiefs who have for
gotten the fulfillment of their duty
and a group of civilians to whom the
nation owes nothing"
Il have not tried to conquer this
rebel force by force of arms, 1t has
been on account of prudence which
the circumstances demanded. But the
nation must know that If we reach
stage where ii is impossible to other
wise suppress their rebellion, we have
100000 men well armed, artillery and
machine guns and also we have right
and justice, which are invincible, on
our SIDE"
General Carranza said that it was
the rebellion of General Villa, which
is nothing but a plot instigated by the
so-called cientificos and by our con-
quered enemies. who have not received
public offices on account of incom.
potency and cowardice.'
In his statement General Carranza
outlined the reforms for which he
said the party was working. reviewed
at length recent internal troubles in
Sonora and Durango which preceded
the break with Villa, and declared the
convention which he was addressing
was the fulfillment of the plan of
Guadalupe and that all the Constitu-
tionalist chiefs, including the division
of the north, had agreed that this con-
vention should name the time Of cleo
tion.

Engaged III the longest and big

over the Germans in the struggle
between a million on side which

statement is based on official re
ports from London, Paris ard

of General Won Kluck is being
forced back. The French and
British reports say this action is
decisive in its indications, but
Berlin maintains that this ad-
vance of the Allied left wing is
not of importance.
The opposing battle lines now
extend from a point southeast of

to Noyon, thence practically

London, Oct. 4.-FIaving repulsed
the German attacks. presumably in the
vicinity of Roye. the French, according
to the official communication issued
Sunday afternoon at Paris, have re.
sumed the offensive at several points,
while other positions on their left
have been appreciably maintained.
The great effort of the allies to en-.
velope the German right may there
fore be said to be again in operation,
and it is believed that the whole
French column from Roye northward
to Arras is moving eastward against
the German position.
1t is the same operation that has
been tried repeatedly for the last three
weeks in an attempt to reach the Ger
man lines of communication and en-
circle the German army forming the
right wing or force It to fall back to
Belgium and Luxembourg.
The Germans have had a long time
in which to make their position Sc
cure. SO there Is lot of hard fighting
ahead for both the attacking forces
and the defenders. The defensive role
is now apparently being assumed by
the invaders.
In the center, from the Disc to the
Argonne, the two well-entrenched ar
mics are still watching each other,
ready at a moments notice to meet
attacks or on the advice of aerial OBJ
servers, to move to some point where
the line is threatened.
While there have been many official
movements, there is little, according
to the French report, to record. In
other words, the situation remains vir-
tually as it was.
