LOOK TO WILSON FOR
NEW MEXICAN POLICY
Washington Officials Expect Presiden,
to Outline Plan After
Orozcos Escape.

The second arrest of Huerta at Ell Paso
Saturday. following the disappearance of
his associate. Orozco, was regarded here
yesterday as another evidence Of the de-
terminate of the administration to keep
Huerta out of Mexico at any cost
Officials declared yesterday that the
second arrest was not ordered from
Washington. The Federal authorities on
the border have, however. been fully ad-
vised as to Washington's views on the
Huerta case. and it Is presumed here
that they took such action as they
thought would best suit the policy here
under the circumstances.
The return of President Wilson Is
awaited with the utmost interest here. as
the impression prevails that he will on
nounce another move in Mexico soon
after his arrival No reason Is found for
believing. however, that the action con-
templated by the President Is anything
so drastic as Intervention in Mexico.
The Carranza agency last night issued
further reports Of conditions in Mexico.
denying that there Is a scarcity of food.
has telesraphed Carranza that it Is ex-
pected that about two-thirds of the
usual crop will be produced this year.
1t Is admitted that the relief supplies
sent by Carranza to this region greatly
improved the situation.
The Carranza agency also stated that
the situation In Sonora is bad on account
of the revolt Of the Yaqui Indians against
the villista governor of the state, Gen.
Maytorena.

Mexico City is in terror-stricken ex-

lines of defense will be followed by a
wild retreat into the capital and then by
street fighting more general than made

uprising that ended with the overthrow

Although the acting executive of the
conventionist government. Lagos Chazaro.

assurances that there will be no fighting

nor the foreign colonies here have the
slightest confidence that the higher jefes

check
Since last Thursday 5000 Surianos, in
lines extending from Tex-cococo to Anne
cameca. have resisted the constitutional
list advance. Attacking forces have
reached the nearby suburb of Atzca-

Friday was followed by the withdrawal
of the constitutionalists. During the SUBJ

Admiral Caperton. who was sent or
the Washington from Vera Cruz TO look

The interests Of the United States at

near Cape Haitien until this government
is satisfied that stable government has
been set up in the republic.

M. Laudet says the Pope deplored the
effect of the interview. so sensationally

as follows:

MEXICAN REFUGEES

New York. July 4.-Twenty-one refu-
gees from Tuxpam, Mexico. arrived here
today on the Ward liner MORO Castle
from Vera Cruz. They were mostly
employees, and wives and children of
employees of the Pierce Petroleum Plant
at TuXpam.
All were neighbors of G. Turner and
his wife. who were killed last January
during the fighting between the forces
of Carranza and villa. During this
battle they said they were under con-
slant fire. the combatants shooting de-
liberately at the houses of the town

news of the coming of the constitutional
lists caused a hegira Of the Zapatistas

berana convention" issued a fervid call
to the public to cooperate in the de-
Tense of the capital.
The print was hardly dry upon this
manifesto when Jefes. little and big. be-
gan to gather up their ragged bands and
make for the cover Of the hills. Their
exit was under full swing Thursday and
Friday notwithstanding the frenzied ap-
peals from Zapata himself.

left, showing particular fondness for
furniture. automobiles and horses. Hun
dreds of horses were taken from public
and private coaches. leaving the. We
hicles stranded In the streets.
While the panic lasted there was con-
siderable loose shooting in all Of the
central streets and in outlying parts Of
the capital
The last remaining food route from
Toluca was cut Friday. No supplies have
come to the capital since then. The
food within the city will be entirely ex-
hausted within a week. All stores were
closed a week ago through the ex-
haustion of their stocks. Twenty-Five
thousand Zapatistas thrown in a great
circle outside the capital on a line ex-
tending from Tlalnepantla to Penon have
stubbornly resisted the constitutionalists
advance.
Forces at Odds.
The Zapatista-V Villa combination. call
ing itself the conventionist army. has
held the capital since March II when
Obregon evacuated it and moved north
to fight Villa. Throughout this second
conventionist regime there have been

Cruz to help the Mexicans to settle their
troubles, many of the representatives OF
your nation who were over here at the
time could not understand our move ex-
cept in the light of landgrabbing. We
could not explain to them that We were
unselfish in our motives: that we merely
wished to help the unfortunate parties
in Mexico settle their differences.
We Americans sympathize with
any European nation and must not get
the impression that she is contem.
plating to seize land that does not
belong to her by nature AS, for m
stance, France chould ask for the
French-speaking portions Ut Lor-
raine, or Italy for her italian popu-
lation, and Austria ard Serbia for
adequate seaportS. That would seem
reasonable to US, and We would SYM
pathiZe with such demands. But when
we hear of Germany contemplating to
annex Belgium, or of England wish
ing to take German South Africa
then we get impatient, and all OF
these things have nothing to DO with
the question of WHO will be the victor
in battle.
We feel here that the gigantic
struggle is not to be laid at the door
CT anybody in particular. 1t is the
outcome of the ra cur3l growth of the
nations and of commercial rivalry
which is perfectly legitimate and
healthy.
The friction caused by such rivalry
was eased off by the mutual under.
standing, We think. but was caused
by the fact that the men at the
head. instead of applying their pri-
vate Christianity to public affairs, are
icebound by a long tradition Of lying
so called.
The poor people. fortunately, are not
responsible for such diplomacy The
diplomat must be annihilated, mus.
disappear from the governments of the
world. and in his place must come a
Christian statesman who Is big enough
to see the needs Of the other country.
How does a Christian business man get
along without war? Because he is sensi-
bic enough to know that peace and gen.
crosby pays better in the end.

TEUTONS MASSLNG ARMIES
FOR COUP AGAINST ITALY
Force of Being Sent South to Check Italian
Invasion Estimated at 100000.
Fighting Among Peaks.

attacks have been made by the Austrians
pat Mount Freikofel and all the italian
positions in the vicinity. with the result
that a general action was fought
simultaneously at Valpiccolo. Valgrande.
Monte Croce. and Plocken. in which the
Austrians were driven back and fresh
ground gained by their brilliant adver-
saries. the Alpini and Bersaglieri.
The most violent engagement OF all
was fought on the northern slope Of
Valgrande, where the Austrians had
thrown up intrenchments and brought
batteries into play with the intention Of
enfilading the Italian position on Mount
Freikofel. By a bold dash. after they
had repulsed two attacks. the Bersaglieri
charged with the bayonet. drove the Aus
TRANS out of their positions and occupied
their trenches. taking some prisoners.
The Austrians left 1J0 dead behind them.
Surprised in Mist.
Bad weather came just as an order to
attack the summit of Mount Freikofel
was about to be given.
1t lasted for several days Clouds came
up from the valley and crowned the en-
tire mountain with an impenetrable mist.
The sentinels no longer knew exactly the
direction of the Austrian position. but
flashes of light showed that the Austrians
had come. Rifle fire, followed by the
crackle of machine guns. showed that
general attack was being made in the
midst of the fog.
For a few moments there was surprise
in the Alpini camp. but the Italian troops
quickly rallied and with irresistible fury
charged the Austrians. who had come
within a few yards of their trenches.
The enemy was numerous. and Austrian
uniforms seemed to be concealed behind
every rock.
After the fourth attack the Austrians
definitely retreated.
For nine days and nights the action
has practically been uninterrupted. and
little by little the Italian Alpini forced
their way up to height Of 1850 meters.
The summit was taken after the Aus
TRANS had left 100 dead 400 wounded and
200 prisoners.
