CARRANZA LOSES
 YUCATAN. STATE General Revolt Against "First Chief" in Country
 South of Vera Cruz. TOO MANY FACTIONS One Party Raises Taxes and Prohibits Exports of Raw Hemp to l'nitei States, Provoking COmplaiat
 From Manufacturers.
TOO MANY FACTIONS

Washington, March 2.--The news to the state department today indicates that the Carranza control of the state of Yucatan has ceased. Recently there was q revolution there against Governor Santos. There were two parties in the city of Progresso, one of which raised the taxes and prohib- ited exports of raw hemp to the Unit ed States. The manufacturers of this country protested.
 The dispatches today confirmed re- ports that Carranza'h gunboat Pro-
 gresso was blown up at P:ogresso, i that three of the crew were killed and the rest Of the crew were saved Oy the American vessel, Moro Castle. 1 The state department officials infer from this happening that the post or 1 Progresso will now be open. Further
 troubles from the Carranza govern
 ment are reported from Puerto Mexi- co the western terminus of the Che
 huantepec railroad. It is understood ithat a British gunboat is always sta-
 toned at that port to preserve the
 rights of the English interests in the railroad.
 The news from Puerto Mexico indi- cates that there is a general revoin-
 tion against Carranza south of Vera
 Cruz.
 i Carranza has issued decree thai
 all railroad traffic between Vera
 Cruz and Mexico City be suspende ed
 He proposes to use the trains fol
 military purposes only.

Berlin, March 2.-Tbat the Russians have recaptured Przasnysz is admit ted in a semi-official annc cuncenent made this afternoon. The statement says:
 "The part played by the extreme north and south wings in the eastern theatre of war becomes steadily more prominent. Beth opponents appear to be concentrating their efforts at these points.
 "The German and Austrian reports indicate that the Russians are bring ing up achievements north of the Vistula and N3rew line of fortif!ca- tions. and in South Galicia the rein fcrcements are so considerable that the Russians have been able to resume the offensive at different places.
 "Whether,. after taking Przasnycz, the Russians were satisfied to hold 1t or whether they are advancing is not officially stated It is improbable, however, that the Russian column will be pushed very far beyond there.
 "Operations in the Carpathlans are proceeding slowly but with bitter fighting. "Fcllowing German gains in the Argcnne and near Malincourt. opera lions around Verdun appear about 70 be resmued."

Washington, March 2.-After long discussion today between the presi- dent and the cabinet of the note nf the allies which abolishes trade with Germany and outlines a new practice fer the seizure of all ships, cargoes whose enemy destination is presumed, it was announced officially that no conclusions had been reached but that "the matter was under consideration.
 It was learned from cabinet mem- bers that this government, before de- ciding upon a course of action, must first get an explanation of the manner in which the blockade, whether :t be such technically or otherwise, IS to be administered by France, Eng land and Russia It is expected that full details will be forwarded at the earliest moment by the ambassadors at Paris. Eohdan and Petrograd.
 Officials say that this government will assert and uphold the rights of American and neutral commerce III general, notwithstanding the declara- ton of the note of the allies. The at titude of the government has not changed in this respect from the time it made similar announcement IS to the John D. Rockefeller and other earlier vessels which were seized by British cruisers.
 President Wilson talked very frankly with callers at the white house on the subject of the note, but he did not reveal any definite policy or indicate what would be the nature of any representation that may pc made to the allies.
 President Wilson asserted that no nation has the right to change me rules of warfare because the methods of war have changed. This was gen erally understood to mean that the president holds that the Anglo-French blockade, simply as a reprlsal a3alnst an unlawful blockade by Germany, cannot be defended under information al law
 The president stated very clearly, however. that he had not concluded whether the allies had actually estao- lished blockade Gs Germany, al- though that scene dto him to be the general effect of the note; At the same time, he maintaineu %pat if yes sells should sail in the face of the warnings of the allies he thought that they would do so subject to the usual war risk of seizure and prize courts
 The president conveyed the impress, sion that the whole matter was one ol serious consideration and that he hao not vet had the opportunity to digest the contents of the communication.

The play is one of Trima tive emotions and primal pas si0ns and Little Pal'' who is un- familiar with the customs of modern ity. and remote from the influences which have fashioned the present civ iliZatiOn, recognizes no other force than the love she has for the one man who has practiced justice toward ier.

 THE "AMUSA" theater opened last night with one of the best Spanish acts ever brought to Arizona and it looks as if the future of the little house under the new management is assured.
 The feature of the opening was the first appearance of Carmen Higares, 1 styled The Evan Tanguay of Spain" 1 Senorita Higares came to the Teatro | Principal in MeXica City last year to head big musical comedy com | rany organized there, but the un-

 The second attraction of the week will be the appearance of Janet Beacher in 'Fine Feathers" a five reel World Feature from the pen of Eugene Walter. This is the story of a girl who loved fine feathers and it tells of the immoral means she used to get them. The scenes are gaudy beyond conception. Some of them are taken in the famous Mur- ray restaurant in New York City.
 For the third feature of the week there will be the first local appear ance in motion pictures of Nat Good win, who will be seen in Business is Business" In this Nat Goodwin in six dramatic acts, shows the grim struggle of a mountain of selfishness against all natural human affection. This has a terrible result of course and the result of it is shown in the picture in highly thrilling manner.

 i The Carmen Higares Novelty act will be seen again tonight at the Amusa, formerly the Star and Re- gale. They have enough material to remain for several weeks and judging from their reception last night they are due to remain for some time The picture offerings were decidedly in keeping with the vaudeville acts. Mary Fuller showed to advantage iH an Italian picture, The Heart of Night Wind" while Mary Pickford was seen in clever success of her early career in the movies, under the title of "The Outcome"
 The Amusa looks like real ad- dition to the popular priced houses.
 THE COLISEUM offers for the last time tonight the funny show "A Wo- man for Twenty Minutes" It is better than anything that the South e1n Rose Buds have presented so far.
