Curley Is able to count much faster in
New York than in Havana. according to
Colonel Estrampes. who was active in
furthering the Johnson-Willard fight.
When word was received here that Cur
ley stated in New York that the receipts
amounted to $4,000 the colonel reiter-
ated that Curley assured him the re-
ceipts we're only $6l 900. II is conjeC-
turcd mere that a split on the basis Of
Sol 900 could be made much easier than
on the larger figure, and with more

unless the cane was replaced the
woodwork might soon collapse. But
they did not dare to let the chairs
be taken out of Congress hall.
So they sent for Miss Ira Frost. mis-
tress of handicraft at the Industrial

RIGHT TO INTERFERE.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Ell Paso, Tex, June 15.-Without
admitting the right OF the American
government to Intervene in Mexican
affairs, Gen. Francisco Villa Saturday
addressed an invitation to Venustiano
CarranZa for constitutionalist leaders
to unite and reorganize the govern.
ment of Mexico. An early reply is
requested that preliminaries for such
a conference may be arranged.
The invitation states that the pro-
posal is being submitted to Emiliano
Zapata, southern leader. and to Rogue
Gonzales Cara in Mexico City.
Villa has replied to President VIII
sons recent note calling upon leaders
of factions in Mexico to take steps to
establish stable government. The
villa note, the first to be made pub
lie, was dated Aguas Calientes. June
10, and was forwarded to Enrique c..
Llorente, villa representative at
Washington. for presentation to the
State Department.
President Wilson's high spirit OF
Justice" and the consideration and
respect" in which he is held In the
United States and Mexico Gen. Villa
said, impels him to send his reply,
which interprets Wilson's note as a
recognition that the American gov
ernment has no right to take part in
the settlement of the internal affairs
of Mexico.
The villa note reviews the over
throw of the Victoriano Huerta re-
gime and attributes the subsequent
division among constitutional leaders
to false ideas, for mercenary pur-
poses, diffused by those who sought to
retain power indefinitely without
laws"
Villas break with Carranza is at
tributed to Venustiano Carranza. and
the resulting strife is characterized as
civil war such as might occur In any
nation"
carranza Bids for Recognition.
Northumberland Carranza has
issued proclamation at Vera Cruz,
making a bid for recognition by the
United States. John X. Silliman. per-
sonal representative of President VIII
son in Mexico, telegraphed its text to
the State Department from Vera
Cruz.
Until new secretary Of state is
appointed to succeed MIR. Bryan 1t Is
not thought there will be any devel-
opment of the recently announced
policy of President Wilson to insist
on a settlement by the Mexicans or
some other means would be en-
ployed.
