El Paso, Tex, oct. 5.-Agcnts OF
the Carranza central government
along the border do not agree with or
fetal Washington's Interpretation OF
the presidential situation in the revo-
lution-stricken republic. Local rep
resentativos of the constitutionalist
commando r-in-chief said today that
the recent convention held at Mexico

The fact that the Carranza conven-

out here. thus eliminated Calderon.
The recent convention at Mexico
CIty was the originally called meeting
of ali revolutionary elements to which
the Villa leaders had been invited but
had failed to attend, owing to the lat
est outbreak Of verbal hostilities be-
tween Carranza and villa. This con-
vention's action, it was declared was
final on the matter of the provisional
presidency. 1t was pointed out FUR
ther that even had the villa delegates
attended the meeting their votes could
not have outnumbered those OF the
delegates actually present who were
unanimous in their refusal to accept
Carranza's resignation.
The meeting of Carranza and VIVA
delegates at Aguas Callentes or Aaca-
tecas thus would become, the Carran-
za men interrupted, merely a media
ton meeting between the central gov

which by Villas proclamation had
revolted against the party in power at
Mexico City.
From the south today came little
