UP RELIEF WORK
Gen. Devol Says II Is Hopeless
to Attempt Aid Until u. s.
Policy Is Settled.


Washington. July 90 Mexico City
was reoccupied by Zapatista forces or
Sunday, according to official advices re-
ceived at the State Department to-day
from the Mexican capital. The occu'
patton was without disorder or resist
ance of any kind, as all the Carranzs
forces under General Gonzales had left
Railroad communication with Vera
Cruz has been suspended. The Zapata
commander has appointed civil author
tiles, and there is every indication that
order will be maintained. President
Chazaro and the Cenventionalist gov
eminent have not yet returned.
Grave fears are felt here that with
the return of the Carranzista troops
there will be a repetition of the long
struggle that preceded the recent oc-
cupation of the city by General Con-
zales. Although street fighting and
looting were practically suppressed at
that time, there is nothing TO warrant
the assumption that the second occupa-
ton will be effected with so little IN
jury TO foreign lives and property.
Concerning the capture of Naco by
Colonel Cardenas, commanding con
tingent of Carranza troops, the VITA
agency here issued a statement tonight
asserting the violation of an agree
ment by the factions with General Hugh
Scott, Chief of Staff of the United
States Army, according to which Naco
was IL be considered neutral territory.
Agreement to Protect Americans.
This arrangement was made to lessen
the danger TO Americans and prevent
possible complications, as Naco is on
the line, its main street forming the
boundary between Naco, Mexico, and
Naco, Arizona. Fighting in the streets
of the Mexican city caused the death
of many Americans in the early stages
of the revolution.
Advices from the west coast say that
reports from the Yaqui Valley are re-
assuring. General UrbalejO is said to
have driven all Indians out of the val
lev, while his forces are now at Coco
rit. The Glacier has arrived at Mazat-
Ian.
The department has received re
port stating that Villas flying column
had taken Queretaro. His instructions
were to give full protection to foreign
ers and their interests. A telegram
dated Yesterday. from Eagle Pass, says
that communication with Torreon was
opened the day before. The first train
for several weeks left Piedras Negras
for Torreon yesterday. General Chavoz
is temporarily in command of the Villa
forces al Piedras Negras.
S3O,OOO,OOO Bullion Gets Through.
The Carranza agency tonight re-
ceived an official dispatch from vera
Cruz announcing the arrival at that
port under strong military escort OF
S3OOOO.OOO in gold and silver bullion
bars. the property of several foreign
owned mining corporations. The con-
siCnment had been accompanied by the
guard from Pachuca. 1t viii be shipped

Brigadier General Devol, general
manager Of the American Red Cross,
returned from the Texas border to-day
with the announcement that attempts
TO relieve famine and suffering among
non-combatants in Mexico were hope
less under present conditions.
At the Cabinet meeting to-day the
uncertain Mexican situation was briefly
discussed. Some move of the Unitec
States in pure ance of President vii
