WASHINGTON, April S.-Another
snarl was added to the already badly
tangled Mexican situation today by
the news that VictorianO Huerta was
enroute from Spain to New York pre-
sumably with plans In mind for re-es-
tablishing his regime south Of the
Rio Grande
Although there was no point blank
indications that Huerta was planning
to start a cross-revolution against the
Carranza and Villa-Zapata factions,
there was a strong belief at the state
department that he was not making
the trip "for his health
The most significant result OF
Huertas return to the western hemis-
phere and the possible injection of his
into Mexican affairs was
said to be the possibility that the
first chief" and the convention lead
er would temporarily bury the hatchet
to resist Huerta, the common enemy,
If he attempts again to control the
Mexican government. Huerta was
said to have the unqualified support
of the Cientifico faction and it was
considered difficult to predict the re-
suit of any attempt on his part 10
start things" in his old realm.
In the meantime, reports reached
Washington from Vera Cruz. that
Obregon, Carranza's right hand man,
had administered severe defeat on
the villa forces near 1raQuato. IL
smoke Of 400 Villista dead and 800
wounded in the Iraquato battle. Con
cerning the final outcome OF this
struggle which was characterized by
state department officials as death
grapple" liable to result in Villa 8
capture, there was much doubt
The war department was expected
to take official cognizance Of reports
from Brownsville, Texas, that Vii
listas and Carranzistas had been fir
ing across the line into Brownsville
outskirts. The crossIborder shooting
was supposed to have occurred in a
skirmish.

For obvious reasons the London pa.
pers laid great stress upon these re.
ports. In neutral quarters 1t was said
that while public opinion in The
Netherlands undoubtedly is becoming
more concerned over reported Ger
man attacks on Dutch shipping, no
situation exists to warrant the belief
in any possible open break. 1t was
pointed out that Holland is almost
equally incensed over the restrictions
laid by the British blockade on Ger
many.
Several Amsterdam dispatches to
London news agencies reported the
Germans massing Landstrum regi-
ments and cavalry along the Belgian
Dutch border. One dispatch reported
the kaiser's troops were entrenching
on line leading northward from Ant
werp, and that part Of the guns OF
Antwerp had been dismantled and
transported to strategic positions
near the frontier of Holland.
From The Hague came other ad-
vices from English sources saying
that for the past fortnight. southern
posts near Belgium have been quietly
reinforced with men and artillery.
The Dutch regular army OF 100000
was reported to be fully armed and
prepared for any eventuality.

Alcohol absorbs the water from the
cells and tissues, breaks up and dimin-
lshes their nutritive power. while beer
creates new fermentive and chemical
changes In the stomach. These pro-
cesses are cumulative. not only de-
stroying the balance between waste

the waste. which permanently disturbs
and destroys the vigor and health Of
