nails he was carrying broke open and

Chief Executive to Remain In Washington Until Ger many Files Formal Dis avowal of the Sinking
 of Steamer Arabic

Washington, August 29.-President Wilson announced today he would re- main in Washington until the situa- tion between the United States and Ger. many is cleared up. Officials had been urging him to go to New Hampshire for rest.
 The President had planned to spend the entire month of September at Corr nish, but today 1t wns snid to be uD likely that he would return there alI this year. 70
 The President it was said, author lively has been led by the statens.. ambassador, to Secretary Lansing. and reports received from American Am- bassador Gerard at Berlin to hope that a solution for the submarine contro- versy with Germany will be found. He is awaiting. however. for the imperial governments formal disavowal of the attack on the Arabic and assur ance that the lives of Americans travelling cn unarmed merchantmen will not be endangered again.
 Count Von Bernstorf left today for the summer embassy on Long Island. He still was confident that within a short time formal communication would reach Washington from the Ber- lin foreign office paving the way for an amicable adjustment of all issues between the American and German governments.

He will dis cuss the results of his efforts with Sec retary of State Lansing tomorrow.
 General Scott's first missios at the bor- der was to confer with General Villa and settle difficulties arising from the seizure of property of foreign merchants at Chi huahua. The general also discussed with Villa the Pan-American convention pro- posal which Villa has accepted
 Since that time the nature of General Scotts negotiations has not been dis closed. At one time 1t was reported he sought to get in communication with General Obregon. Carranza's chief in the field. Obregon responded to the Pal

 No disclosures have been made here as

 will be no meeting of the conferees un-
 til Carranza's reply to the appeal for

Carranza's agents here say the reply is expected to- morrow or next day. General Carranza is expected at Mexico City tonight or to- morrow. Numerous rumors are being put afoat both as to political matters and military moven ents. Reports of dissensions in Carranza factions are eagerly confirmed by Villa adherents and vice versa. Villa followers today had no doubt of a report culated today that some of the mem- bers of Carrahza's cabinet had revolted.

Berlin, August 2e.-(By Wireless to ssyviIIe. .)-The Overseas News agency eays that Bulgaria, previously reported to have signed a treaty with Turkey, has postponed ratification of the agree ment because of sharp warning from the entente allies.
 According to Sofia reports" the news agency says, Bulgaria has post poned for some days the signing of the treaty with Turkey, the qradrupe en- tente having notified her that such ac- tior now would be regaroed as will fully unfriendy set Nevertheless, the two powers are in complete agree

 to hold the Muscovites.
 Military observers here believe this
 question must be settled before many
 days, arguing that any ventures post poned for the fall must commence to
 develop soon.
