HUERTA ON WAY TO
UNITED STATES
Former Mexican Dictator Due
to Arrive in New York
Saturday.

Washington, April 7.-Oficial an
nouncement that Victriano Huerta,
once Mexican dictator, was on his
way from Spain to the United States
was received at the state department
today from the American consul at
Seville. Huerta is on the steamer
Antonio Lopez, due to arrive at New
York Saturday. 1t will be his first
visit to the United States.
The purpose of Huerta's visit is
unknown to officials, but 1t is gener-
ally believed he intends to confer
with prominent Mexicans associated
with him in his administration, who
have gathered in New York since
the triumph of the Constitutionalist
forces, or perhaps intends to make
his residence there.
The state department has heard
rumors that some of Huerta's follow
ers are gathering strength to pro-
uipte another military campaign in
Mexico, to oppose both the Carran4a
and the Villa Zapata factions. but
ECtning tangible has de,eloped. ii is
said, indicating any mo-, in that Li-
re, lion.
Belief has prevailed in official
quarters here that many of the Mex
isans in exile sooner or later would
join whatever faction was apparently
getting the upper hand in the pres
ent struggle.

man outposts retreated from Reggie
willie and Fey-enHaye. The French
some time ago reported the capture
OF the towns since claim to have
made almost daily progress.
The Belgians have regained some
ground they lost in Flanders but
elsewhere there has been no change
in tho West.
Although no announcement has
been made, the general expectation
in military circles here is that COM
bined land and sea attackon the
Dardanelles will begin shortly and
that at the same time the Russians
now apparently in command in the
Black Sea, will lombard the Bos-
porus forts.
In Africa General Botha's Union
of South Africa forces continue their
victories along the railways, but thus
far have not overtaken the main Ger
man army.
In England the drink question re-
mains uppermost In the minds of the
people. The Cabinet met today to
discuss what Governmental action
should be taken but announced no
decision. Meantime hundreds OF pub
lie men are following the Kings ex-
ample and are banishing alcoholic
liquors and making a plea to the peo-
pie that they at least take the pledge
to abstain from liquor until the war
is over.

from the Washington Government
that the time for his stay in this port
would expire at midnight tonight and
that he must leave American waters
