sons belief that tho restoration Of
peace and order in Mexico is possible
is based largely on answers given by
leaders o. each q the Mexican fac
lions 90 ;vo specific questions put 70
them by Doval West. who i1vestic gated
conditions in the republic for the
President.
"Vha; arc YOU Sighting for" was
one % these questions, and in each in
stance he received the answer. The

"Wn you help sustain govern
ment which restores the principles Of
government for which Madero fought
his way 20 victory" was another cues
ton. and 20 it each Of the leaders an

Il is on these assurances that the
administration is disposed 70 make the
effort 10 select for the Office of Proyl-
sional President that strong man
who can conduct the affairs Of gov
eminent up 20 the point where p prop
erly conducted election can he held
and a permanent President be chosen.

Talk of Tagle for President.
Vasquez Tagle. mentioned in The
Tribune to-day as one Of the logical
choices Of the leaders Of the peace
movement, is the leader Of what is left
Of the .Nadoro Cabinet. There is
vague intimation that the United
States government will suggest to
the Mexican fighters that new
star, along the old lines be made by
the selection Of Vasqucz TaGle for the
temporary President. 1t is understood
here that this Is the plan which Mr.
West suggested i'm his conversation
with the President, but II does not
appear IN his official report Of his IN
vests cations and negotiations IN Mex
leo.

government. The Carranza agency
here said to-day that the Vera Cruz
government had ordered an advance
N force on Mexico City, with view
20 wping out the present \llla-La-
pata combination government. At the
same time. Consular Agent Carothers,
state Department representative with
General Villa, sent q report that villa
soldiers Lad defeated Oregon IN a
pitched battle near Leon.
The Carranza disposition is 20 init
mate 10 The United States that II lett
alone Just a little while longer 1t can
bring the disorders in Mexico to an
end Carranza thinks he Is the man TO
bring order out OF chaos, but the
United States does not think so.

Minister AZ Mexico City, saying ar
ranCemeuts were again under way for
the dcspa.ch of train TO take Amer
can refugees out Of the capital. lie
was not able TO state how soon the
train could be got away, but about
800 Americans who were destitute
probably would take the train. This
represents only small number Of the
American residents Of Mexico City,
which Minister CardosO now estimates
at approximately 1900.
