CARRANZA MAY
 BE RECOGNIZED
OFFICIAL WASHINGTON ACCEPTS ACTION OF LANSING AND LAT
 iN-AMERlCAN DIPLOMATS.
ACTION OPPOSED BY VILLA
Claims Recognition Will Only Cause More Troubie-Both Sides Will Seek Decisive Battle Within
 Next Three Weeks.

Washington. Prospects for the recognition of General Carranza arc much more favorable than at any time since the United States began to ex- ert it's influence toward the establish ment of a government in Mexico.
 The decision of the Pan-American diplomats to study for the next three weeks the material and moral capac- ity" of the clements aspiring to recog- nition have led to the general belief that unless the military situation in Mexico is much changed in that period the recognition of the Carranza move ment practically is certain.
 The United States and the govern ments considering the situation intend to investigate carefully to learn wheth- CT the faction in military supremacy gives promise of creating a stable gov ernment.
 To demonstrate that the Carranza movement does not control the terri tory it claims in Mexico. will be the object of a delegation of VillaZapata followers expected hero.
 They will be heard by Secretary Lansing To supplement their argu- ment it is said the Villa party is plan- ming an extensive guerilla warfare. Enrique c. Llorente, Washington re- | presentative of General Villa, returned from New York and expressed the con- | fidence that within three weeks there would be ample proof of the inability of Carranza to control the territory he claims. It is said that General Villa, using Chihuahua as a base, will send out flying columns and by series of sensational dashes endeavor to show the helplessress of CarranZa. The Za- pata forces will renew their activity in the south.
 Mir Llorente secuted the idea that any foreigners would be endangered in Villa territory and declared the mili tary situation would soon show de cided change that would compel the Pan-American conference to withhold recognition from Carranza.

ARABIC EVIDENCE
 CALLED TO BERLIN
AMBASSADOR GERARD WILL PRE- SENT MESSAGE TO GERMAN
 FOREIGN OFFICE.

Washington. - After conference between Secretary of State Lansing and the president on the case of the Arabic and other diplomatic issues, it was announced for the first time by the State Department that it had cabled the evidence in the Arabic con troversy to Ambassador Gerard at Berlin for presentation to the Ger man foreign office.
 With this important announcement 1t was stated also that the United States had not made any representa- tions to Germany on the evidence. .t was explained by the highest authori- ties in the State Department that the object in cabling the evidence to Am bassador Gerard was simply that the German foreign office should have not only it's own evidence from its sub marine commander. but also all the testimony which has been furnished to the State Department from all sources on the Arabic This govern ment apparently has decided to rest the case for the present, and will await the effect of it's evidence on the German foreign office.
 Secretary Lansing will in day or two go on a 10 days vacation, during which period Germany is expected U consider the case and prepare a com munication to this government If may be delivered by Ambassador Rernstorff to the State Department, or may come direct from Ambassador 1 Gerard.
 In the meantime there is nothing in the suggestions of any official com potent to speak on the subject that in- dicates decision on the part of the administration to break of diplomatic relations, or adopt any other drastic course if Germany fails to concede the arguments of the United States.
 The exact points of difference be- tween the United States and Germany on the Arabic case. which heretofore have been variously stated, were de- fined by an authority,

NEW CURE FOR RHEUMATISM
Woman Who Had Suffered for Many Years Is Cured by Bolt of
 Lightning.

The medical faculty was put to shame by a bolt of lightning which the other night struck the farmhouse of Charles A. Burdick, on Washing ton Ridge, says the Berlin (Conp.) correspondent of the New York Her. ald The electric bolt destroyed arti- cles in all the eight rooms of the house and did damage exceeding $1.- 900, but it cured Mrs. Burdick of rheu- matism. from which she had suffered for many years.
 Mrs. Burdick was about to put wood in the kitchen stove when the bolt struck her, knocking her down and rendering her unconscious. One of her feet was on zinc beneath the stove. The lightning took nail out of the sole of her shoes and her foot was severely burned. Dr. Thomas Mulligan of New Britain soon revived her
 Today Mrs Burdick, although suf- fering from the burns on her foot. was free from rheumatic pains. She does not think the price her husband must pay in repairs to the house too high, but MT Burdick is discreetly si- lent

TWO FIGHTS ARE STAGED, ONE AT BROWNSVILLE AND AN.
 OTHER AT DONNA.
NO AMERICANS WERE KILLED
Mexicans Start Firing, the American Troops Reply, and Say They Be- leve That 17 Men Were
 Wounded.

Brownsville. American cavalry men had two fights with Mexicans across the Rio Grande. one here and one near Donna, about 60 miles up the river. Iii both clashes the American soldiers were fired upon, and returned the fire without themselves suffering any casualties.
 Ten American cavalrymen in the Donna fight, which lasted two hours and a half, reported they were fired upon by about 200 Mexicans, and be- lieved that they had hit IT Mexicans.
 Twenty American cavalrymen fought on the outskirts of Brownsville for half an hour with Mexicans on the opposite bank of the Rio Grande. None of the Americans were hit. One Car ranza soldier was taken to a Mata- moros hospital, probably fatally wounded, but Carranza officers denied emphatically that any of their men joined in the fight. Investigation was in progress to determine who, besides Mexican soldiers, may have mixed in the battle.
 Col. A. P. Blocksom, the American commander at Fort Brown, here, re- ported to Maj Gen. Funston at San Antonio. that the Mexicans started the firing.
 Immediately after the battle small mob formed in Matamoros about the headquarters of Gen. E. P Nafarrate, Carranza commander, shouting: Give us guns"
 They had heard the rife shots and were angered by reports that their people had been fired upon. Gen. Nat- arrate refused their demands. He sent his chief of staff, Col. P A. Chapa, to investigate, and Col. Chapa took Unit ed States Consul Jesse H. Johnson with him to the Mexican side of the | battle-ground.
 MT. Johnson found some evidence l to support the Mexican soldiers claim l that they were not implicated in the l fight, but after coming to Brownsville to learn the American version, MT Johnson said he was convinced that 1 Col. Chappa had not been put in pos l session of all the facts. There was no excitement in Brownsville during l the fight, as the direction of the wind | prevented the people from hearing the | rifles. Few Americans knew of the | fight until it was over.
