ed upon a break with Carranza and
had demonstrated his attitude by i'm
prisoning some officers in Carranza's
command was verified in reports to
the state department today. 1t was
declared, however, that Villas action
had served the purpose for which it
was originated and that the conquer

would command the military advance
against Huerta without interruption.
Other official dispatches indicated
that all the principal officers of the
revolutionary movement sided with
Villa in his differences with the Con-
stitutionalist first chief of methods

Gen. Carranza, 1t was stated, insisted
that Gen. Natera should lead the as

did not support. Villa insisted, accord

Constitutionalist forces was being infiu-

situation was to resign.
Villas Officers Revoted
Carranza accepted his resignation and
ordered Villa to Chihuahua to assume
the military governorship of that state.

Collision in Fog

The collision occurred in the Eng
Itch channel Is miles south of the Nab
u9htship in a dense fog. Just how 1t
occurred and ON which vessel lies the
responsibility. cannot be ascertained
at the present time. The ofhcers OF
the Kaiser Wilhelm II have permit
ted no communication to be held with
anyone on board and they themselves
have refused to give out any informa-
ton, Such scant details as have been
obtained came from the Incemore.
That vessel, It is stated by those
aboard, had virtually come to a stop
because of the danger of continuing
underway in such a thick fog, when
suddenly there doomed up just ahead
of her the huge bulk of the Kaiser
Wilhelm.
Both captains did their best to avert
a collision, but the short distance sep
arating the two vessels rendered their
tsorts Intellectual and the lncemore
struck the liner on the starboard side
amfdships. The force of the impact
crumpled UP her own bows and tore
a big gap in the Kaiser Wilhelm S
side It was the impression of those
aboard the Incemore than the hole was
entirely above the waterline. The two
steamers stood by each other until 1t
was ascertained that neither needed
immediate assistance; then both start
ed slowly for Southampton. The fore
peak of the Incemore rapidly filled
with water, but the stout bulkhead
confined II there and. although so
much down by the bows that the pro-
peller was half out of the water, she
managed to crawl into port. There 1t
was found that the damage to the
bows extended for length OF IL feet
and a width of 10 feet.
Officials of the North German Lloyd
Co. are trying to make arrangements
for the transfer of the Kaiser Will
helms passengers to another steamer.
A proposal was made to the Ham
burg-American Line that the Impera-
tor which will leave Southampton to-
morrow with Col. Roosevelt In the
large list of passengers, take the
Kaiser Wilhelm's passengers.
