 Word that General Carranza was be- lieyed yielding to the European in fiuences brought to bear on him in an effort to avert war, reached the state department through diplomatic channels. His note in regard to Car rizal incident is viewed in some quarters as supporting that theory. Special Agent Rodgers has made no report on the reception of the Ameri- can note. A message today told of the display of posters about the Mex ican capital recounting the killing of General Gomez at Carrizal by Ameri- can soldiers and the capture of sev- eral Americans by Carranza troops.
 Officials admitted this was not a hopeful sign.
