News Reaches Washington
That First Chief"
Realizes Weakness.
BIG DIAZ FORCE
BEFORE CAPITAL
In Complete Control of state Of
Colima, Felix Diaz, with Well
Armed Army, Reported March,
ing on Mexico City.

Washington, Oct. n. Charges that
General CarranZa is preparing to
leave Mexico are being freely made
by his politicI enemies in Mexico
City. They are based on his prepare
lions to leave the capital for Quero-
| taro and the fact that his wife has
already left for the United States, ac-
companied by the wife OF his war
minister and cNEf supporter, General
ObrcgOn.
Nothing tangible tending to sup
port the story has come thru official
~, but il is known that many Off
Gals here believe CarranZa has COM
rlttcd a political blunder, by per-
hitting his family to leave Mexico
at this time. This was certain to be
construed by his enemies as a con-
fession of weakness. The purpose OF
the visit of Mrs. tarranZa and Mrs
ObregOn IS for d tour Of the United
States.
Word OF the arrival at the border
Of Mrs. ,Jacinto Trevino. wife of the
military commander of Chihuahua
state, had not been received tonight.
1t was pointed out. however, that Ire
vino has been among CarranZa's
| stauno hest supporters, and that if the
first chief thought his hold on the
situation was weakening. Trevino
very probably would be warned, that
he might place his family in safety.
The state department had not re-
ceived word that Carranza and Obres-
on had left Mexico City for Queretaro,
but previous advices had said they
would go there for the meeting Of
delegates to the constitutional con-
vention.
Persistent reports that General
Carranza was about to leave Mexico
have been in circulation on the bor-
der for some time 1t is not known
here that American military authors
ties have been able to gather any
definite information in this regard,
outside the arrival Of Mrs. Carranza
and Mrs. Obregon.
Many war department officials
have expressed the opinion that Car
ranza's hold is growing weaker and
it has been anticipated that the time
might come when he would have to
leave the country. The main point
urged by CarranZa in his demand for
the withdrawal of American forces
was that their presence was not un-
derstood by the Mexican people AMI
that it weakened his efforts to estab-
lish civil government in the country.

New York, Jan. 5.--The past year
has been one of remarkable activity
among the boxers, particularly those
OF the United States and Austria.
Bouts ranging all the way from the
four-round decsionless contests to
the battle of forty-fve rounds or a
knockout, have been staged in these
or adjacent countries and while the
shifting OF titles have been few. al
most every one of the recognized
champions has defended his pugilis-
tic crown one or more times during
1915.
Considering all classes Of bouts,
whether short and decisionless or to
a finish, the records show that group
of some fifty of the leading pugilists
fought close to 600 ring battles dur
ing the twelve months just complet-
ed. If the list is enlarged to include
their opponents the total number OF
boxers engaged in these contests
would aggregate more than would
run into a million dollars.
A peculiar feature of the record is
that the lists show the boxers in
the intermediate classes were the
ones that fought most frequently.
Battling Lavinsky. and Jack Dillon,
light hcavyweights, participated in
fifty-odd battles with the "Battler"
having a margin of four bouts over
Dillon. In the lightweight class
Charley White, Freddie Welsh. Ted
Lewis. Johnny Dundee and Eddie
