GENERAL HUERTA
 REMAINS IN JAIL Friends Will Attempt To Make Old Warriors Bond
 On Tuesday

Fl Paso, July 4.-General Victorian O Huerta and the three former Mexican generals and two members of his per- sonal staff arrested here yesterday on charges of conspiracy to violate Amer ican neutrality laws. remained in jail here tonight, Apparently no effort was made today to provide bond for their le'ease. Huerta's attorneys conferred with him at the jail, but no one else was permitted to see him. It is un- dsrstood an effort will be made to get |, nds for the men Tuesday.
 Whether last weeks developments mean the abandonment of a new revo- lutionary move has created division of opinion even among Huertas S adher- = ents. Certain persons close to Huerta say his arrest merely has delayed ac- tinn, but others say that any or gtnized move has been inds

 "1n an hour the Aughsburg, finding the Russian fleet too hot, abandoned her slower consort and fled full speed southward. The Albatross (the Gel rian mine layer) began to show signs  dcavored to assist her to escape throw ing volumes of thick, black smoke out of her tunnels and rendering the fog more dense, but at 9 o'clock the fore mast of the Albatross was shot away and the doomed ship began to list

 ''The Russians cruised northward. At 10 o'clock they sighted a squadron of the enemy, including an armored cruiser of the Roon class. light cruiser of the Aughsburg class and four destroyers. The Russians lm- nlediately joined battle and half an hour later the enemy began to retreat, while several submarines attacked the Russians unsuccessfully.
 'The Rurig was sent at full speed after the retreating vessels, whicE were joined by another cruiser of the Bremen class. The Rurik soon had the satisfaction of seeing the effect of her ralvos, for the enemys fire weakened The Roon's four eight-inch guns were silenced and fire broke out aboard Obviously dsliking further conflict, the enemy disappeared rapidly in the fog.
 "The Russians sustained trifling damage. No one was killed, four men were wounded.

Fly FREDERICK PALMER

The toll of casualties where there are only sniping and infrequent smelling has been much reduced, not only to the in- creased adaptability of the men in self protection-the result of Experience in trench warfare-but to an immense lm- provement in the protective character Of the work.
 Though a trench may be on exactly the same line as it was in December spade work in the spring and summer has com peteIy transformed it, affording small chance for either shdapnel shell bullets or bullets fired by snipers from trees or buildings to hit the defenders.
 You can move only a few feet in straight line in this maze of human war rens. The zlgzag traverses localize dam age. On dull days there have been in- stances of not a single casualty for a dis tance of mile in 24 hours. It is when the artillery is concentrated and an effort is made to get through the barbed wire and take a trench that the casualty list leaps like thermometer thrust from an ice box into an oven.
 Soldiers Like Trenches
 So used have they become to trench life that some soldiers prefer life in an av craze trench on an average day to that in billets. because sniping has the ele ments of sport and excitement The conf- dence and patriotism of the fighting men are shown in both officers and soldiers even if they have only a few shillngs put by in subscribing to the war loan

Carranza's Hopes Receive a Severe Check and Keen Disappointment Is Felt at Failure
HOPE OF CARRANZA
 FOR RECOGNITION WAS TO CAPTURE CITY
General Zapata Defeated Every Attempt of Army of Carranza to Enter City. Merchants Fear Lo0ting

ruebls. Mex. June 2s.-tBy Mall to New Orleans. July 4)--After moro tan 10 days fighting in m effort to reoccupy Mexico City, Carranza troops ing and reports arc current that Car ranza's hope to regain the capital has been checked for at Ienst another month, if he takes the city at all.
 The failure of Gonzales to occupy the city has had a disappointing ef- feet upon the revolutionary leaders scattered from Puehla to carranza's headquarters at Vera Cruz. That Za- reta and the convention government in control at Mexico City were able to put up ar effective resistance and even to take the offensive was surprise to Carranza adherents
 Ever since President Wilson's warn- ing to the Mexican chiefs it has been the belief that Carranza staked his hope for recognition by the United Sto tes on his ability again to assume control in the capital His troops left Vera Cruz and Puehla in jubilart spirit and with the expectation that the expedition would be in the nature of a holiday
 Defeat met Gonzalez's every attempt to enter the city. He was driven out fthe passes leading into the valley of Mexico. His success in penetrating into one of the suburbs and 1iberatng de0 prisoners in Tacuba Jail resulted olly in a slaughter of his men and finally wounded torn and hungry, tha entire catranza force fell back
 Opposed to Carranza
 Gonzalez has been advised that the h ople of Mexico City, soldiers and civilians. are opposed to the return uf Garranza that the merchants fear loot ing should Carranza's troops enter and that the thousands of people who surge the streets in hunger riots would le moved to greater violence should F ore troops without food supplies be thrown into city which already is on famine basis.
 Photographic communication between fuebla and Mexico City has been in- tci rupted for more than week but messages brought by couriers declare th, people in the capital have been m a state of panic, that the mobs ds- r anding food have increased daily, that hundreds are dying directly or in- directly from starvation, that mer- chants, fearing footing. have barri- e ded their shops. and that the diplo- atic corps has been meeting daily tn devise means for the protection of for cien lives and property. The fact tLat tho convention government has re- moved it's archives and Urea sury funds 10 Cuernavaca and that trains are kept In readiness to remove the government tot Ia. rIn at fEA rency require, has added to the ner- vous tension.

Mr. Morgan, the victim of the bull lets which Holt fired, continued to show improvement today. The only bulletin issued was reassuring. It said the bullet did not enter the abdomen and that an X-ray examination showed that no bones had been damaged. Late tonight it was said the financier was resting easily; that he had slept all the afternoon. No reference was made to . another bullet which was said yester- day to have come out of the upper part of the leg.
 Neither Mr. Morgan nor members of his family were told of the start ling statement made by Holt to Com missioner Woods. The Morgan home was closely guarded today. The force of armed men surrounding the estate was doubled as the day wore on and all suspicious looking persons were kept at distance. Every incoming train was watched.
 Not more than a dozen visitors were received at the Morgan home. Mrs. Nor
