He Quits Carranza and Goes
1t Alone Is Villistas
Report
VILLAS ADVANCE
MOVES SOUTH
While Obregon Makes Rapid
Advance to North to
Meet Him

FL Paso, May l.--Gen. Oregon has re.
pudiated Carranza and is now leading his
own party, according to the report re.
eeived here by Villa agents. 1t is said
that after the battle of Celaya, in which
Oregon troops severely defeated the
Villa army, Gen. Oregon informed Car
rama that he was leading his own party
and that il Carranza wished to partake
in the victories against Villa he must
join his forces to those of Oregon. For
this reason Villa authorities claim that
no reinforcements have reached Obregon
at Irapuato.
The advance guard of the army which
Gen. Villa has been modelling at Aguas-
calientes for the last 10 days began
moving southwark Thursday. Six thous-
and men under Gen. Rodriguez, who
commanded the Villa column which at
tackled Matamoros recently without sue
cess, left the concentration point in IL
trains for lrapuato, where Gen. Oregon
is camped with his main army. Thirty
thousand Villa soldiers have been
brought together in Aguascalientes and
along the railway as far as Leon, it is
reported. The remainder of Villas army
will move south as soon as transporta-
ton facilities are available. Obregon's
strength is not known but Carranza
officials here claim he has as many men
as Villa and is well prepared to engage
the northern leaders forces.
Between 200 and 1900 villa soldiers
are en- route to Juarez from Torreon to
reinforce the border towns garrison.
This movement of troops was made be-
cause 500 Carranza troops are march
ing from Sonora to attack Juarez I'M

THE VATICAN'S
OPPORTUNITY
The Papacy Can Do Whole
World a Service
Now

Rome, May lowing to the chaos Of
international law, as the result Of the
present political upheaval in Europe, Il
number of French and Belgian archbish-
ops are said to have united in an APP
peal to the pope to restate some of the
basic doctrines on which the rights OF
nations depend.
The tenor of the memorandum said
to be addressed to the Vatican calls for
restatement of the unwritten law on
which the violated written laws are
based 1t is the opinion of the memo
rialists that not only all Catholics but
many Protestants would welcome some
authoritative utterance from Rome as a
guide in the darkness of present inter
national morality and that the papacy
has now an opportunity of doing the
world service that would be epoch
making in it's history.
Cardinal MERCER of Belgium and Car
dinal Annette Of Paris and other mem
bers of the Sacred college have joined
in this appeal to the pope.
This is not the first tiVe since the
papacy ceased to be the arbiter of Eu-
rope that such request has been made
to the Vatican. The Vatican council it.
self considered such scheme and many
famous names, as Rampolla, Coullie and
Maffi have been associated with plans
for promulgating Christian principles in
questions affecting war and its bus
mess.

pope says;

olics and even q certain number OF Pro-
testants look to the pope as the nat
ural defender of Christian morality, de-
handing guidance in matters so connect
ed with modern civilization which are
the outcome of Christian teaching The
pontiff, as the supreme pastor OF Cath
oljcs throughout the world, has the right
to lay down moral principles which
should govern all Christian nations in
their reciprocal relations.
"The earliest theologians condemned
war altogether, but later, chiefly through
the influence of st. Augustine, war some
times was considered inevitable. st.
Thomas and other authorities teach that
war always is unlawful unless it is just,
which justice can exist only through a
Just cause and right intention.
Injustice is no more morally right
for nation than for an individual, and
its perpetrator is condemned by all
Christian principles. Theologians de-
nounce as pagan error the assertion
that might. is right or that the right
to wage war depends on force of arms.

country fights from desire for CON
quest, or demands great indemnity. |
This, after the killing of thousands, is |
called by ST. Augustine 'brigandage.' me-

strength of carbon and Gem lamps, it
The cost is. however, less than twice AZ
much as carbon lamps, and hence the
average cost of lamp renewals would be
less on the average with tungsten lamps
than with the others. The efficiency OF
tungsten lamps is very much higher, 50
that there is scarcely any place where
carbon or Gem lamps can now he used
advantsgeously. Nevertheless, there are
still good many companies giving free
renewals OF these lamps to their Gus
toners. and this has the tendency to en-
courage the use of inefficient means OF
lighting.
One of the clauses of the proposed
set of rules being drawn up by the bu
reau of standards is the following:
"Lamps furnished by utilities to GUS
toners without charge free renewals
or at prices less than open market prices
should be of such efficiency in watts per
candle when used on the utilities cir
cults of standard voltage that the cost
OF light per candlepower hour to Gus
toners will not exceed the cost per can
dlepower hour when ineandesoent lamps
are bought in the open market"
While some companies heartily ap-
prove of this proposal. it is possible
that objection will be made by Others,
but IL is believed that when the facts
with regard TO the efficiency and dur.
ability of tungsten lamps at the pres
emit time are fully appreciated by com
missions and companies there will be a
general disposition to act in accordance
with this suggestion.

PLENTY OF TONNAGE
FOR SOUTH AMERICA
But Most Of Vessels Available for Amer

Philadelphia, May Welding Ring
envy of Political and Social Science, as.
serted to-day that, notwithstanding gen
eraf misinformation to the contrary,
| there is now and has been available
practically ever since the war begun,
ample leading tonnage for shippers send
! ing their wares from American markets
| to South America. Most of these ves-
| sells were under foreign registry, how
ever, he said, and radical changes would
have to be made in American laws be-
| fore the United States could take its
place among the leading nations OF the
sea.
Mr.. Ring said in part:
"A wrong impression has been spread
throughout the United States that we
do not have sufficient communication
with all the various countries through
out South America and Central America.
To those in the shipping trade, it is
hardly necessary to state that since the
war commenced there has scarcely been
a period when there was not ample ton
mage loading for the requirements of
shippers
at is, however, humiliating to think
that the United States, probably the
most advanced country in the world in
the manufacture and value of its ar
ticles, must depend upon foreign tonnage
to carry its products throughout the
world. When the change will come Is
extremely difficult to predict, but is Ger
tain that but little progress will be made
in building up a merchant marine under
the Stars and Stripes until we get more
intelligent and broader legislation AT
Washington than has been served to us
during recent years. Very many plans
have been suggested. numerous bills have
been introduced in Congress and debates
have been long and arduods, and without
any, or at least very little, result and
benefit.
"The nearest approach to anything
beneficial WIS the act passed last Au-
gust by Congress, which for brief pc
riod permits the purchase of foreign |
built vessels and their transfer to the |
United States flag, and their operations |
also for a limited period, without many |
of the existing drawbacks of our naviga- |
ton laws. Under this act, up to the
present time, 1877 steamers have been |
from foreign TO United |
States flag. Unfortunately just as Con-
gress closed, 1T passed bill generally
known as the Seaman's BILL which con
tanned numerous conditions that add to
the already too heavily burdened Ameri. |
can shipping, How this difficulty is to
be overcome is problem very difficult !
to solve, but it is certain to be one that
must come to the front very largely in
the immediate future"
