WITH MEXICO
NOW POSSIBLE
REPORTS CURRENT IN Ell PASO
THAT cARRANZA AND VILLA
MAY MAKE PEACE-ALl FOR.
EIGNERS LEAVE.

El Paso, Texas. June 6.-The posi-
bility that President Wilson's recent
note TO Mexican leaders might result
in a reapproachment between Cen
eral Carranza and General Villa was
being discussed in Mexican circles
here Saturday 1t was stated adthori-
tatively that at the suggestion of a
high Villa official on the border, a
request had gone TO Elizio Aredondo,
the Carranza representative at Wash
ington to outline some basis for an
understanding.
1t was admitted that leaders of both
factions here and in Juarez have dis
cussed the subject informally, but
none would venture an opinion as to
what basis for an understanding
eventually might be reached.
General Felipe Angeles wired Villa
headquarters at Juarez that he ap-
proved the Wilson message and per-
sonally would be willing to cease
fighting if a basis for an understand
ing could be reached despite his con-
tention that Villa forces have the ad-
vantage of the recent fight at Silao
No word has been received from
Villa as to his views of the presi-
dents note.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1915-06-07

paper the article was taken from. Il
IS as follows:
British papers continue 10 give
much space to the consideration oI
the problem OF how to meet German
poison gas. In a letter TO The
Times, Lord Armstrong, who has re-
Gently returned rom the front, tells
OF the sufferings OF the soldiers OF
the allies from the deyilsh gas
launched against our forces by the
barbarous and inhuman German
scientists" The precise nature OF
the poison is not at present known
for certain, the various eXhalations
apparently differing somewhat in
character, though chlorine gas IN
doubtedly enters largely into its com
position OF its effect Lord Arm
strong says: 1T is most distasteful
to me TO appear TO write n spirit
OF exaggeration or that OF an alarm
ist, but | have seen sights that arouse
ones deepest Indignation, and can
not help thinking OF 400 brave Cana
dians brought to a terrible death, be-
fore their comrades eyes, without be
ing able to retaliate, and ! cannot
forget the purple flush that l saw on
the faces of dying heroes, many OF
them splendid-looking men and un-
wounded, but to whom the Angel OF
Death was appearing in a most dread
ful form. The time has come when
We must stihe sentiment and be pre-
pared in every case to meet force by
force and strategy by strategy, if We
hope to eventually come out victors
in the colossal struggle on which de-
pends our very existence as nation"
The "eounter-gas" Lord Armstrong
advocates is not of the same sort
as Germans are using. He thinks
British scientists could prepare a gas
that would produce temporary uncon-
sciousness without pain, and at the
same time have no ultimately injuri-
Gus effect. In this he voices a very
general sentiment in Great Britain
against the adoption OF so murderous
a gas as that used by the Germans,
but no less strongly in favor of using
gas which will temporarily incapaci-
tate the enemy.

600 Ready to DEPART,

Vera Cruz, June 6.-There are now
500 foreigners ready to leave Mexico
City Information TO this effect was
conveyed Saturday to John R. Sill
man, President Wilson's representa-
tive in Mexico and Arnold Shanklin,
American consul general in Mexico
City, who is in Vera Cruz. In com
pany with the British consul. Mr.. Hen
derson, Mr.. Shankln will leave Vera
Cruz, Monday, to meet the refugees
at Pachuca, fifty five miles from Mex
leo City.
Officials here say it is imperative
that the United States government
send a transport to Vera Cruz to re
ceive the refugees and the transport
should reach this port by June 8. Vera
Cruz already is overcrowded and it is
feared that if the attempt were made
to care for the refugees from Mexico
City the result would be sickness and
widespread suffering.
