THE CIVIL WAR In MEXICO

In the early part of the year it was
evident that Francisco Villa had the
ambition to become the political War
wick OF the republic of Mexico. On
January he deposed the provisional
governor, Gutierrez, and installed Gen
eral Cara in his place. He was still
master of the situation at the City of
Mexico, and Carranza still maintained
his stand at Vera Cruz. Meantime, the
fighting went on uninterruptedly, with
varying results, but none decisive.
In June the situation on the border
and elsewhere became so irritating
that the United States government
felt compelled to give official warning
to the factional leaders that failure on
their part to come to some agreement
would necessitate Intervention. De-
spite this tD!imation, the forces of
Villa and Cs7ranza continued to keep
revolution ezame, and by midsummer
tbs Mexican situation seemed to be
more inexplicable than ever. Villas
star waned perceptibly. A new mill
tary influence, General Obregon, took
the center of the stage. He assumed
the leadership of the Carranza faction,
and his military successes were con-
siderable. In July General Gonzales,
another Carranza supporter, fought his
way into Mexico City, displacing Gen.
eral Zapata, who held the place in the
Villa interest. Later, Gonzales was
driven out and the situation was so
threatening to life and property in the
capital that, in August, American bat
tleships were ordered to Vera Cruz,
but were not put into action. In this
month, also, an appeal signed by Sec
retary of State Lansing and the repre-
sentatives of South and Central Amer
ican governments asking all warning
elements in Mexico to get together in
an attempt at pacification was sent to
the various leaders. During Septem-
Der the fighting on the Mexican border
grew more desperate There were
many fatalities before United States
troops gained control of the situation.
On October 10, nine of the principal
governments of the American hemi-
sphere, headed by the United States,
recognized the de facto government of
Mexico of which Carranza is the chief

exposed. One of the men recognized
it as Cinnabar, and the two miners
put in ten days stalking out II claims.
When their find was made known at

turned out and staked off claims. Mer-
curry (quicksilver) is obtained from
