TIVE CHIEF ARRESTED

Paul Koenig, head Of the detective bur-
eau Of the Hamburg-American Line, was
arrested on December II, charged with a
plot to blow up the Welland Canal. Off
Gals have been investigating the mass of
papers, including code and expense books,
seized in Koenig's office, and declare that
ne was one of the most efficient managers
for his sort of work, with which the de.
partment of justice has ever had to deal.
1t is believed likely that the Welland
Canal plot will prove to be an incident in
conspiracy extending throughout the
country, and that many other arrests will
follow.

VILLA FORCES SURRENDER
General Villa Himself a Fugitive

Peace terms, it seems, have at last been
agreed upon between President Carran.
"a, and the main body of General Villa s
army. Villas forces have been gradually
disintegrating since the recognition Of the
de facto government in Mexico, by the
United States and other powers. The en-
barge against the shipment of war-muni-
tions from this country to Villa, has fur
ther weakened his resources.
Reports are exceedingly indefinite and
conflicting, but all agree that General
Villa is fugitive, his whereabouts being
unknown. 1t is believed by some that he
and his brother have headed for Cuba,
but close lookout is being held for him
along the American border Some re-
ports say that Carranza has offered large
reward for Villa, taken dead or alive
The Carranza de facto government has
granted general amnesty to the leaders
and followers of the Villa faction Gen
eral Villa is to become a political refugee
in the United States, should he choose to
do So
Carranza will assume the control and |
government of all surrendered territory
The troops of General Villa will be taken
into the constitutionalist army, and will
fight in the campaign which is soon to be
inaugurated against Zapata, in the state
of Morelos.
The elimination Of this rebel force, puts
an entirely different aspect upon the Mex
lean situation, and inspires the hope that
a period of peace and reconstruction has
now been established.
