PROGRESSIVES ARE
POPULAR PEOPLE
Republicans and Democrats Speak
Honied Words to Former
Bull MooSers.

NEW YORK. July 7.-Members OF
the late lamented progressive party
are finding themselves very much
sought after individuals these days.
It appeared fairly well established to-
day that one reason why neither the
democratic nor republican campaign
managers had yet announced the full
membership of the campaign COM
mittees, was because they both hoped
to corral a number of progresslVes
for this work.
It Is known there will be at least
six progressives Of the committee OF
seventeen which will direct Hughes
campaign. Vance Mccormick. demo-
cratic national chairman, reiterated
today his declaration that Wilson'S
reelection was assured. because the
progressives were men OF princi-
ple." Most of whom could not bring
themselves to go back into the fold
under men they have dubbed bosses.
One of the stunts which republican
leaders are anxious to put into force
is ocular demonstration OF the entente
cordiale which has been restored be-
tween the republicans and those who
bolted four years ago. With this idea
in view it is understood big meet
ing to wind up the campaign with
Roosevelt, Taft and Hughes on the
same platform is already being dis
cuSSed.

WASHINGTON, July Mexican
Ambassador Arredondo. acting upon

notified the state department that a
large Villa band attacked the Car

Jiminoz, state of chihuahua, Wednes-

Fearing the bands might take to
the desert, Carranza has asked the
state department to have the Ameri-
can border watched on the American
side between Boquillas and Ojinaga.

ised to do his utmost on the Mexican
side to intercept such an attempt il
made.

WASHINGTON July THE Amer
ican-MeLcan situation today had
changed from one that contemplated
war to one contemplating rehabilita-
ton of Carranza's country. How to
bring peace and prosperity out OF the
Mexican chaos was the problem be-
nore President Wilson and his cab
met. The session was expected to
mark the second step by the presi-
dent in working out his Mexican
policy.
Primarily the cabinet had for con-
stderation Secretary Lanstngs for
NAL reply to Secretary Aglnlars $
pacific note. This formally accepts
the idea of direct negotiations, and, it
was understood, indicates the willing
ness pf this government to go a long
way in helping restore tho shattered
republic.
Other problems of prime import
ance before the cabinet were:
First-wt1at is to be done about
guarding the border and permitting
Carranza to establish parallel patrol
In cantonments on his side OF the
line.
Second-what to do about sending
militiamen on the border to their
homes with the Incidental increase
in the regular army to fill their
places.
Third-And basically most import
ant, what to do to place Mexico on
firm footing among the nations.
With respect to the latter, the ad-
ministration feels that 1t cannot at
present encourage bankers to extend
aid to Mexico. But it is hopeful Car
rama can now take a strong guiding
hand which will ensure a stable gov
ernment ultimately and thus afford
the opportunity for American finan-
cia1 aid.
One hundred million dollars. ac-
cording to high government Of
ficial, would be the salvation Of the
stricken nation if it could be OBJ
tanned upon other than confiscatory
terms. The great fear is however
that loan sharks" may demand Mex
leo as their collateral-a proposition
which Carranza would heartily re-
iect and which the administration
will not support.
To encourage Carranza in establish.
ing his government and to work out
a. scheme of financial assistance
which will not extort blood money
from Mexico, was the big admins
tration problem.
