the cCnstitutionalists when the final

from president Carbajal to General
Carranza is made. according to an
nouncement at constitutionalist head
quarters today. 1t was stalled that,
in general, Carbajal approves the dis

Carbajal Faces Crisis
In Depleted Treasury

MEXICO CITY, July 1S.-The Carba-
iaI government is facing crisis IL
,as no money. Its treasury Is depleted
# funds and salaries of thousands OF
government employees are die. The army
IS unpaid. Dissension in the ranks OF
Goth the civilian employees and the mill
AIRY over the probable non-payment of
salaries is causing the new administra-
ton protracted anxiety.
The chances are that salaries will be
unpaid for some time yet, as the treas
my is empty. The salaries Of practi-
CaIIy all government men are due next
Monday.
President Carbajal's associates today
frankly admitted that the executive has
found himself in financial straits, and
IS facing the gravest of situations.
II is possible that the banks will come
20 his rescue. Carbajars only hope
rests on this
Huerta took with him when he fled
the country. more than 100000. No one
belives, however, that the former die

Of the republic have been low for years.
When Diaz left the country, there was
hu1 little money in the treasury. Ma
deIo, when he became the executive,
found even less. and friends of Huerta
coin 10 the credit Of the government

President Carbajal expected to find
the treasury depleted, following the alb
dication of General Huerta, but he be

nth which TO meet the expenses in

the government clerks and many higher
officials are not paid II is certain that
serious discomfort will follow and the
Provisional administration will face
trouble at the very outset.
Fear Zapata's Bands.
Although reports reaching here state
that Zapata and other revolutionisus in
the vicinity Of the capital have declared
they will not recognize CarbajaL an ad-
vance on the city is not expected until
instructions are received from General
Carrahza The greatest danger is from
disorGanized bands which might seize
upon the change in administration as 2
signal for looting and murder.
Word from General CarranZa is also
awaited as to the Congress which shall
be recognized in the capital Members
Of the Maderista congrees, 6tr1olved by
