Washington, d. c., June s.--Advicei
that will determine the truth of reports
of a victory at Leon for Oregon Gen
Carranzas commander, over Villa and
Angeles, were awaited yesterday by adj
ministration officials, in view OF the pos
sible effect of such turn in the Next
can situation 1t was believed here that
if Carranza has been victorious, his next
step would be an attempt to re-enter
Mexico City and establish a government,
with view to obtaining recognition by
the United States.
Carranza representatives here regard
ed the unofficial reports OF the capture of
Leon by Oregon, and the routing of the
Villa forces as evidence that the Villa
movement would soon completely col
lapse. Villa representatives, on the 9TH
er hand, said their latest advices showed
that Villa and Angeles had driven Obre-
gon far south of Leon and that the
main body of the Carranza army was in
critical position near Trinidad.
The Carranza representative here has
received a message from Carranza con-
sui, on the border, saying he had been
approached by a Villa official, speaking
presumably with authority, to learn
what could be done to start parleys.
The message had been forwarded, with
out comment, to Carranza, at Vera Cruz.
At Villa headquarters, however, it was
said no official advices had been received
that peace negotiations had begun.
Advices from Tampico dated Sunday
report railroad communication between
Tampico and Nuevo Laredo reopened,
with Villa forces still retaining control

PATRON SAINT
 OF THE INDIANS

This is the festival Of St. Jerome, the learned doctor of the church wht,, strangely enough, has been adopted as the patron saint of many tribes of aborigines in both North and South America The Apaches, Utes. Maya jos and other tribes Of the Southwest have long celebrated the feast of San Geronimo with strange and novel GUS toms, including dances and foot races. The saint whose name has been borne by thousands of American red men, including the b1oodthirsty old Apache chief, Geronimo, died Sept. 30. 420. He was one of the most scholarly of the fathers of the church, and owes his confluence chiefly to his Latin version of the Scriptures, which Is the basis of the present VuIgate. For this the church Acknowledges him to have been raised by God through special Providence. and particularly assisted from above, and she styles him the greatest of her doc tors in expounding the divine ora cles.'' The worship of Jerome was in troduced among the Indians by the

He was born at Mel bourne, in Line olnshire, in 1860, and spent his youth in the country. When he was IS or thereaboutS he decides London, was duly enlisted in the Ninth Lancers. He had received very little formal education, and in appearance was but big, raw-boned rural youth, but he was full of de- termination and pluck He spent every penny he could save from his 1neagre wage for books. After nearly a decade as 9. trooper, he decided to apply for a commission and was duly commissioned a lieutenant of the Third Dragoon Guards. That was in 1888, and three years later he found opportunity to distinguish himself as railway transport officer of the Mi ranzai and Black Mountain expedi- tions. Tn 1892 he was assigned to duty as staff captain of the Intelli- gence Branch at SinlIa- Always a student, he began the study of the native dialects, and mastered so many of them that he attained note as a lin- guist. In 1895 he was made intelH- gence officer of the Chitral relief force. In that campaign he was se- verely wounded, but was rewarded with the D, S. O. From 1899 to 1900 he served. in Nthe intelligence depart ment of the War Office, but in the latter year he was dispatched to South Africa, where he again distin- guished himself. From 1901 to 1907 he was assistant director of military operati ons at the War Omce,i and in 1910 he was made commandant of the Army Staff College. When the war broke out he went to France with Sir John French, in the capacity of quartermaster-gen and his brilliant services led to his appoint nent as chief of staff of the British army. His principal job is to anal gamate the new forces with the old and keep them alI up to the fighting standard.

In the Jewish calendar 1his is the l twenty-second of Tishri, and is mark l ed by the observance of Shenini Az eret. or the festival of the Eighth Day of Succoth. The name Azeret, given to it by Levi, means "tlae closing fes- i tivaL Tn the strictly orthpdox fam flies and congregati ons the observ- ance is caaracterized by peculiar rites and ceremonies. In the "Kiddush'' at the evening meal thanks are given for having reached this season. Many persons eat in the booths which have

HERMANN SUDERMANN, GERMANY'S FOREMOST
 DRAMATIST, 58 TO-DAY

Hermann Sudermann, who ranks among the foremost of German dra- natists, and is also 8, novelist of wide repute, was born 5S years ago today, Sept 30, 1857, at Matzicken, East Prussia, near the Russian frontier. His youth was passed in extreme pow erty,> but he contrived to gain an ed ucation at the universities of Kon- igsberg and Berlin. He then settled in Berlin as a journalist, working on a small weekly, on which he did most of the work. even writing short stor- ies to help fill it's pages. Owing to his radical views he had to break off his connection with the paper, and he then resolved to live by literature. After a hard struggle, in which he was often uncertain of where his next meal was coming from, he achieved success. His first play was put upon the stage in 1889. Prior to that time he had written several novels, includ- ing ~In the Twilight Dame Care and .fThe Cats Away" as well as two volumes of short tales His first drama, 'Die Ehre'' (Honor), was fairly successful and in 1893 he wrote Die Heimath,'' 2 which has been made famous by Sarah Bernhardt in France, and by Duse in Great Britain and America, under the title of asMagda.'' This play deals with the conflict between an oId-fashioned father and his modernized daughter. Since then he has produced many plays, among his latest being "Claud- ian's Hymn of Parise.''
 Soon after the outbreak of the war Herr Sudermann issued a defense of his country. in which he asserted, that
 Germany would never consent to peace until the ..pan-Slavic dangers has been forever obliterated.' He places the responsibility for the con hict solely upon Russia's indecent ]perfidy." Herr Sudernann declared that the invasion of Belgium was made necessary by the defense against ourl eneni ies.'' and that the measures adopted by the German soI- diers in subjecting the people were justified by military necessity He finds no such justification for the Russians in their invasion of East Prussia, and mourns 'sthe awful cruelties committed by the Russian soldatteska- in the place of my na,- ttvity, the province which gave me the subject for my play sJohannes- are-' 2 He adds that the Russian manner Of conducting war should be branded with the sign of infamy,,,' and that all civilized nations should make a protest against the barbar- ism of the Slavs and the despotism of the Car,

early Spanish explorers, and his re- pulte became so great among them that they chose him, of all the saints in the calendar, as their patron and protector. It is to be doubted, how ever, if the learned doctor of the church would be highly pleased by the Indian observance of his feast day, for these celebrations in the past often developed into wild orgies.
