Mexico city. oct 3O.-The resigna-
ton Of General Venustiano Carranza
as provisional president and first chief
Of the constitutionalist army based
on the condition that Generals villa
and Zapata retire to private life. was
. read to the peace convention at Aguas
Calientes today
In the document General Carranza
even expressed a willingness to leave
the country if his absence would tend
toward the re-establishment of peace.
The message caused turmoil in the
convention hall and at one time spec
tators tried to intervene and break up
the meeting order finally was re-
stored and business proceeded What
action, if any. was taken on the resig-
nation was not known here this even
ing.
In demanding that villa and zapata
retire, General Carranza said:
villa Declared Dangerous.
There is a greater ambition than
that of being president of the repub-
lie and that is to hold such military
omnipotence as to permit one man TO
oversway all powers of union. The
insistency of General villa In Keeping
command of a division supposed to be
all powerful and at the same time
pretending to re-establish at once
constitutional order upon the basis Of
the old regime, is clear indication
that the dream of this chief IS to con-
stitute himself arbter of the destl 2
MES of Mexico. with the faculties TO
appoint president elect congress

the government of all the states.
am ignorant of what the pretentions
Of General zapata are, but believe
they will not differ greatly from those
of General villa.
Conditions of Resignation.
Il wish that my retirement from
power shall not be sterile. and that
am not merely to relinquish the tiela
to enemies of the revolution, to chief
tains with personal ambitions. l
consequently state to the convention
that | am disposed to deliver the
command of the eonstituuonallst
army and the executive power of the
nation and, If necessary to leave the
country, only under the three follow
ing conditions:
First, ro-constltutionalist gov
ernment shall be established with the
support of the constitutionalist army
until such time as conditions justify
a full constitutional regime.
should Leave Republic
Second, General Villa shall resign,
not his candidature to the presidency
or the vice presidency, which has
never been offered him. but military
command of the northern division, re-
tring to private life and leaving the
republic, If the convention should vote
that 1t would be wise for him to do so
Third, Genera lapata shall resign
his command likewise, turning the
same over to general designated bg
the convention"
General Carranza concluded his
message as follows.
But If the only thing desired Is to
remove me from the leadership so
that personal ambitions or reaction
may find the way cleared, | then de-
clare that | am firmly resolved to
serve the cause for which | have been
struggling.

herself with Italy in whatever course
the latter takes. The Bulgarian gov

reports have spoken OF the wavering
attitude Of the government at Bucha-
rest because of popular demonstra-
tions in behalf of the entente.
Striking differences OF opinion de-
veloped today among the diplomatic
representatives here as to the prob
able future course of events in Tur-
key and the Balkan countries. In
some quarters II was suggested that
Turkey must have had some assur-
ance from Greece that the latter
would remain neutral before she
would dare to attack Russia. One
of the military attaches only recent
ly in Constantinople held that Bull
garia would line up against Turkey
for the reason that while the govern
ment of the former country was pro-
Turkish the people We're strongly
Russian in their sympathies.
Great Britain's Position.
Some of the British officials point
ed out that even IL war broke out
between Russia and Turkey, England
would not necessarily he involved. Il
was recalled that England did not
declare war upon Austria until II was
established that Austrian troops were
fighting in France. thereby calling the
latter country to invoke the aid Of It's
ally because she was being attacked.
1t was admitted as possible, in the
event of an actual invasion of Russia
10y Turkish forces, the British gov
crnment might have to respond to
Russa's call for help.
Persons familiar with the geo.
graphical conditions of the country,
scout the idea Of the Turkish inva-
sion Of Egypt in the face OF the al
lied fleets. The hot deserts, peopled
by hostile Arabs, would make It al
most impossible TO march an army
overland.

Washington, oct. 30.-Turkey's at
tack on Russia, reports of which
were confirmed in official dispatches
10 the American government and the
Russian embassy here today, was
viewed by officials and diplomats gen
erally as likely to produce the grav-
est complications throughout the Bal

Minor.
The announcement of a state OF
war between Russia and Turkey was
eventually to bring into the list Of
beligerents Greece and Italy, follow
ed by Rumania and Bulgaria.

stroyers and the sinking of a Russian
gunboat. Previously Charge d'Aifaires
Wilson, at the American embassy at

the American consul at odessa stat
ing that in the bombardment Of the

They prepared to use the American
cruisers North Carolina and Tennes-
see to assist American missionaries, If
necessary, and TO set in motion mea-
sures of relief for Americans similar
to those begun when the first nations
Of Europe were plunged into war.
The far-reaching effects OF Tur-
keys bombardment Of Russian ports
was everywhere admitted. While it
was suggested in some quarters that
the Ottoman government might re-
pudiate the raid of the Turkish de-
cruisers Goeben and Breslau, attrib-
uting the acts TO the initiative of the
German officers and crew manning
them, the belief prevailed that Rus
sia would not passively accept this
view but would consider herself in
II state of war with Turkey.
Complications i'm Albania.
The complications in Albania,
where Greece has sent troops to oc-
eupy Epirus. supposedly incurrng the
displeasure of Italy. which country
feels a special interest in that terri
tory, Is believed to alter somewhat
the alignment which would have re-
suited month ago from Turkey s
entrance into the field of operations.
The news from Athens that Greece
entered Albania with the consent of
the triple entente, was a puzzling
phase of the situation for Washing
ion officials. The feeling has been
expressed in many quarters here for
months that Italy would side with the
triple entente if Turkey declared war
on Russia. This view however, has
been based largely on the supposition
that the musselmen in Egypt, rising
against British rule, would incite
their brethren in Tripoli to attempt
to cast off Italian domination. Italy,

reach some understanding with the
