THESE TWO REVOL CHIEFS STILL WORRY THE
 PEACE EMlssARlES.
CARBAJAL NAMES DELEGATE
To Confer With Carranza on Transfer of the Government But Disquietinq Reports Are Coming in From Mex leo City.

Washington, July 23.-Reginaldo Cepeda senator from the state of Coahuila, an intimate friend of Gen eral Carranza, has been selected by Provisional President Carbajal to ne- gotiate the transfer of the govern ment at Mexico City to the constitu- tionalists. Mir. Cepeda, who was in hiding in Mexico City during the Huerta dictatorship, left Vera Cruz today for Tampico to meet General Carranza. He has full instructions and authority to arrange for the transfer of the government Jose Castellot, personal representa- tive of MT. Carbajal, today conveyed this information to Secretary Bryan. Messrs. Mangel, Novelo and Ureta, who it had been supposed, would constitute the Carbajal commission, it was learned todaay, merely volun- teered their services and have no credentials or authority from Car bajal.
 As soon as Dr. Cepeda is received by General Carranza, an armistice will be formally signed as the first step in the negotiations. General Carranza has indicated his willing ness to declare a truce during the ne gotiations and the Carbajal govern ment is anxious to do likewise. The Carbajal envoy has been instructed to ask for only two things-a com plete amnesty for political offend CTS and guarantees of protection to the lives and property of the MeXi- can people.
 While local agents of Carranza have said he was disinclined to grant an amnesty his speech today at Vic toria, Mexico, and other reliable ad- vices show he will declare an am nesty, though reserving the right to punish those directly responsible for the assassination of Madero and Sua- reg. Most of those implicated, how ever, have left Mexico City.
 Secretary Bryan expressed confi- dence there would be no difficulty in ths way of the Carranza-Carbajal agreement.
 There are, however, two other fac tors in the problem-Villa and Za- pata-causng uneasiness, but Presi- dent Wilson today said he was sure Villa would cause no trouble. Secre- tary Bryan made public dispatches from George c. Carothers, special representative of the state depart ment, with Villa, saying the fighting general would not break with Car ranza.
 Mexicans here who have been kept advised of Villas antipathy toward Cararnza say the breach has been healed but temporarily.
 They say Villa will remain quietly in northern Mexico and when Car ranza reaches Mexico City and con ference of generals is called, Villa will make vigorous demands for a share in the government or in the promotion of his friends. Villas po- tential strength will be his position in northern Mexico, for it is said he will let envoys argue his case Tor him in the capital.
 As to Zapata, many disquieting ru- mors are reaching Washington diplo- mats. One South American minis ter had a telegram from his consul general in Mexico City saying mere ly: "The situation here looks very dark" It was presumed this re- ferred to uneasiness as to whether the constitutionalists would enter Mexico City peacefully or take it ar bitrarily without previous agreement. The Zapatistas are reported active and liable to take advantage of the unsettled situation to force an entry into Mexico City.
 The attitude of the future govern ment in Mexico toward federal court decisions under Huerta, was the sub feet of a conference today between solicitors of the state department and representatives of oil interests in l Mexico.
 American citizens, it was stated, generally have been satisfied but un- rest has heen caused by the fear that an arbitrary annullment of all pre-. yious decrees will follow the assump.
