HINT FROM CARRANZA.
He would Like to See Americans
Quit Vera Cruz Peacefully.

WAsHISGToN, Nov. IA statement deny
ing that Gen. Carranza had ordered an
attack on the American forces at Vera
Cruz. yet containing another hint that
Carranza wants the United States troops
10 get out, was issued here tonight by
Rafael Zubaran, agent OF the Const!tu-
uonal!sts In Washington
After declaring that he has been author
lied by Carranaa to deny published re-
ports that Carranza had ordered an as
eault upon Vera Cruz 10 take place to-
morrow the Constituencies agent says:
'tarranza wishes above all else that the
American troops will cvacuate Vera Cruz
In a peaceful and friendly manner"
In some quarters here tonight the view
was taken that this Is Yelled lntma-
t!On that while Ctrranzi wishes peace
ful evacuation u Vera cruz by the United
States he SIM has IN mind the possibility
OF a forcible election OF the American
troops
In his last not" 20 the t'ulted states on
the subject Of Vera cruz Carrauza re-
FUSED 10 give tn" guarantees asked for and
SAID ne was waiting to receive from the

on which IN" evacuation would take place.

matter rests, with no sign Of CArranza

to sign he would not have put himself In
such an unseemly situation by formulat-
ing the charges against me, because IL
was he himself who exaggerated this Just
resentment of the Consttutlonalist party
against the members of the Catholic
clergy for sustaining the dictatorship lie
went so far as to cause real alarm or
indignation among all classes OF society.
The fact is that Gen. villa, who now
seeks an agreement with the clergy by
showing himself so respectful toward re-
ligion and religious practices, did, in every
place he occupied during tn campaign,
eNpcl the priests, close the churches and
forbid religious exercises. And In Zacate.
