On Way to o. s.?

Washington, June lS.-Congressman
Kent told President Wilson today that
private telegrophie information had
reached him to the effect that General
Carranza had left SOltillo and was on
his way to Laredo, Texas. In view of
the stories of trouble between himself
and General Villa, this report of the
rebel leaders journey toward the bor-
der was looked on as somewhat signif-
icant. 1t is unconfirmed, however, by
the United States consul at Nuevo La
redo, Mexico.
Kent was understood to have receiv-
ed the report in a code telegram from
friend in northern Mexico.

Lord Morley, Last of The
 Gladstone Regime, 76 Today

The Rt Hon. John Morley, Wis count Morley of Blackburn who re- signed as Lord President of the Coun- cil at the beginning of the war, was born in Blackburn, Lancashires sev- enty-six years ago to-day. As law yer, newspaper editor, man of letters. statesman, and the devoted friend Of Irish h on1e rule, Lord Morley has for many years held a prominent place in English political and literary cir cles, For some time before the war he had desired to retire from office, but was dissuaded by his colleagues. It was natural that one who had so long preached peace should desire to avoid responsibility for a great war. and his sincere convictions. and un- doubted patriotism were respected by even the most vehement partisans of Britain participation in the war. Wis count MorIey's retirement marked the passing of the last of the Glad stone veterans and the end Of po- Httcal era. Lord Morley first became famous by his radical policy as editor of the FortnightIy Review. He first sought to gain a seat in Parliament forty-ffve years ago, but was defeat- ed In 1883 he was elected to the House of Commons. and three years later he was made Secretary for Ire- land, with a seat in the Cabinet He was Irish Secretary in both the third and fourth of the Gladstone admiris- trations and helped to draw up both the first and second home rule bills In 1893 he had charge of the. measure in the House of Commonsg He was elevated to the House of Lords in 1908, and there as in the Commons he has been the consistent and per sistent friend of home rule for the Emerald Isle. During his long ca reer he has edited the Fortnightly Review, the Pa11 Mall Gazette and the MacMillan Magazine. As an au- thor he is best known by his biogra- phies of VoItaire, Edmund Burke. Rousseau, Diderot. Richard Golden, Oliver Cromwell and Gladstone, Many other works that will doubtless take rank as classics have issued from his pen. Some time before the out break of the war Lord Morley, in a public address, described. the iEterna- tionaI situation as sstI1e most tam gled coil that ever confronted Euro-- pean diplomacy To the last nos sible moment he entertained the hope that the situation could be solved without recourse to war.
