Fighting Is Over.

Monterey, Mex, July 18.--Fight-
ing by constitutionalists is over in
Mexico, if plans announced here
Thursday by Venustiano Carranza go
into effect. Gen. Carranza declared
his main object now would be TO con-
duet negotiations for the constitu
tionalists to enter Mexico City and
establish their government without
further bloodshed or damage to prop
erty.
Cen. Carranza was unable to say
whether these negotiations would be
conducted through A. B. c. mediators
or direct with the federals. Uncondi-
tional surrender, however, will be the
only condition on which these negoti-
atoms will be successful. Gen. Car
rama made that plain to newspaper
men who talked with him. He de-
clared that the reforms for which
the constitutionalists fought must be
obtained at whatever cost"

When you have a large cake of Ice
and want a small piece to put in a
glass you are somewhat helpless If you
have no ice pick at hand. But you need
not be so. Use an ordinary pin instead
of an ice pick and you can have the Ice
In pieces the size you desire.
Press the pin into the ice as far as
1t will go, and work 1t back and forth
slowly and steadily until the ice
splits. Then put the pin in a new place
and make another cleft In this way
yau can break off piece after piece Of

,xico City. July 1s.-1en. Victor
iano Huerta resigned from the provi-
sional presidency of the Mexican re-
public Wednesday night and his re-
signation was accepted by the senate
and chamber Of deputies by a vote OF
III to II.
Francisco Carbajal, the minister OF
foreign affairs, was then appointed
president and took the oath of Office
ct the joint session of deputies and
senators.
Gen. Huerta and Con. Banquet left
the capitol late Wednesday night.
They boarded a train on the Mexican
Midland a few miles beyond the city.
It Is thought they are going to Puerto
Mexico.
The scene in the chamber of depu-
ties and the senate when Huerta' s
resignation was received was solemn
aad the enthusiasm with which the
act was greeted was tempered by
general sympathy for the abdicating
president.
Fear Of lootine.
The city is quiet, but everywhere
there is dread of rebellion and loot
ing. 1t is realized that Huerta, IN
spite of his faults, kept strong hand
on disorderly elements, and his sue
cessor, 1t is said, is not of a type to
cope with a populace in revolt.
Further than the announcement of
Huerta's resignation, made after
O'Clock the government is silent. 1t
Is believed, however, that Carbajal
will turn the government over to the
constitutionalists and thus insure
peace. 1t is also limited that Huerta
will take the field at the head of the
federal army.
