American government as favoring rec- ognition of Carranza, however, only the formal action without further negotia- ton. remains to be taken.
 The Villa agency here today issued the following statement:
 The confidential agency again wishes to stamp as absurd the rumors of General Villas intention of establishing a separ- ate republic in Mexico. General Villa authorizes emphatic denial of the report. The elements which constitute the con vention cause would. never support such plan. even if General Villa favored it, which he does not"

 ing until General Carranza carried some of his promises into effect, but the con- sensus of opinion finally was that with the moral support that recognition would give, the Carranza government would be better able to carry out it's pledges since 1t already dominated the country from military point of view The unanimous decision that the Carranza party pos sessed both the material and moral ca pacity'' which it had been announced would be regarded as prerequisites to recognition followed.
 Governments to Act Separately
 Secretary Lansing later explained that each government would act separately, the attitude of the United States not be- ing conditioned on that of other govern ments or vice versa.
 MT Lansing made it clear that it Gas not necessary to discuss with the Car ranza authorities at this time either the question of claims or national indeb ted ness, both subjects being included under international obligations which naturally fall upon duly recognized government. The recognition of General Carranza is confidently looked upon by Secretary Lan- sing as a step toward the solution of the Mexican situation. With recognition the process of reconstructing Mexico Is expected to begin. Many officials ex- pressed their pleasure that 1t was pos sible for the United States to recognize General Carranza because he. as the first to take up arms against Huerta, stood for the liberal principles of the revo- lution with which the United States has been in sympathy. The fact that at sev- eral times in the rise and fall of Carran- za's fortunes as a leader of his faction, he had differed with the Washington gov- ernment, had led in many quarters to the belief that he would not be Vecog- nized, and officials hoped that today's 8 action would demonstrate that they were not interested in personalities but only in the establishment of true representa- tive government in Mexico.
 Villa Declines Coalition Government
 General Villas followers had hoped that the conference would continue its efforts to persuade Carranza to form a coalition government What the Villa faction will do Is not clearly indicated, but that they will continue the struggle in the field is considered certain although most of their leaders are at present in Washington and officialS reports show that many of their troops have gone over to the Car ranza side.
