WASHINGTON. Nov. 11.-Peace or
war between factions in Mexico hung
in the balance today.
Oficials here believed the crisis In
the breach between Gen. Carranza
and the peace convention and villa
was to be reached before night. From
President Wilson down, official hope
and belief was mat another civil con-
fiict might yet be avoided.
With hostilities resumed near Naco
between Gen. Hills and Maytorenas
armies, and reports OF mobilization
OF other forces OF the rival factions
the situation was, however, deemed
fraught with danger OF renewed strife.
The state department awaited OH
cial confirmation OF reports that Car
rama has agreed TO all American de-
mands looking to evacuation OF Vera
Cruz. Even with complete complE
ance by Carranza, In Official circles 1t
was doubted whether any date for de-
parture OF the American troops would
be set until conditions become more
settled.
General belief is here that Vera
Cruz cannot be turned over until
some one man is settled upon by all
factions In Mexico, officially TO re-
ceive the port and also the customs
aggregating nearly $l.000.OoO.
The administration based Its hope
for peace In Mexico largely upon Car
