ence. was said here not to have

agents here, said today he believed
the general would yield to the wishes
of the United States and be ready
for the invitation of the mediators

VILLA IHiiitt1155 Hit1155 HIS
MARCH TOWARD
MEXICO
CITY

FL Paso. Tex, June 29.-Lack OF
ammunition has blocked General Vii,
las march toward Mexico City. Villa.
fresh from his victory last week at
Zacatecas, has returned to TorreOn,
bringing his entire army with him.
The relations of the northern zone
commander with General Carranza
in the opinion of agents here today,
dnquestionably caused the abandon
ment of the campaign. The Carran-
za-Villa estarngement has reached a
breaking point, they asserted, in that
the constitutionalist commander-in-
chief has declined to allow Villa to
import cartridges for his men and
shells for his artillery through the
port of Tampico. This port now Is
the only entry way for munitions
which the revolutionists may use, as
the border still is closed to them by
the strict embargo OF the United
States border patrol.
At Zacatecas, villa shot away prac-
tically all of the cargo of the Antilla
which landed at Tampico. according
to his representatives here. Carran-
za's men, however. declare that Villa
did not get the Antilla ammunition,
which, they declare, still is in Mont
Grey. II had been asserted that Villa
secured it through hoax.
