Ell Paso, Tex. April 1s.-The obrs-
gon faction in the de facto govern
ment of Mexico is making a desperate
effort to force First Chief Carranxa
to declare war against the United
States.
This information was received to-
day from Chihuahua
That a real crisis has been reached
in the negotiations with Gen. Car
rama is declared to have been re-
ported to the State Department. The
message received here said:
Consul Letcher's most recent re-
ports are of such a nature that they
should compel Washington to make
them public.
Supplies still Are Held.
"All supplies shipped over the Mex.
lean railways and intended for the
American forces through consignment
to private individuals are still being
held here.
When an explanation was demanded
the reply was given that the supplies
could not be released without an order
from Gen. Obregon.
The nine cars Of grain and forage
which arrived here last Thursday morn
ing were confscated.
The efforts made by Consul Letcher
to secure the release Of the several ship
ments and have them forwarded to San
Antonio over the Northwestern railway
have been ignored.
Gen. Luis Herrera left Chihuahua en-
route for Parral on Sunday night in COM
mand of the Morelos and Juarez brig
ades.
Villas death" Forgotten.
The Mexican officials are no longer
endeavoring to substantiate the report of
Villas death. Gen. Luis Gutierrez said
the Information never amounted to more
than a rumor. Consul Letcher said there
was nothing in the story of Villas body
having been found.
Thirteen Villistas were executed this
morning for plotting to overthrow the
Carranza garrison.
Private Eichenberger, of the Tenth
Cavalry, : who has been missing since
the Parrsi fight, has been located south
east Of Parral, according to a report
from Col. Brown to Consul Letcher.T
The message does not state whether
Eichenberger was found dead or alive.
He is believed to be the courier sent by
Col Brown to ascertain what had hap
pened to Mai. Tompkins, in command
when firing was heard in the direction
Of Parral.
A member of the Alvarado Mining and
Milling Company reached El Paso from
ParraI today with a first-person story
of the fighting. His report has been
accepted by Gen. Bell. and 1t relates
that but one Mexican was killed. The
Mexican wounded consisted of one man.
one woman and one child.
-Four aerOplanes passed through Ell
Paso today en- route to Columbus as ex-
press.
The bill of lading showed that the
shipment originated at Newport News.
The stipulated transportation charges
were 500.

New York, April 19.-The complete in

in America-the financial head, the al
legged directors Of the plots to destroy
commerce, the list Of the spies who OBJ
tain secret Internationally be laid be-
fore the public as result Of the seizure
OF a mass Of papers on Tuesday morn
ing in the former headquarters, room 25O1,
50 Wall street, Of the dismissed German
military attache, Capt. Franz Won Papen.
While the State Department and Count
Won Bernstorf, the German Ambassador,
were wrestling today over the question
as to whether these papers belonged to
the German Embassy, the startling proph-
ecy was made by a government authority
that II Count Won Bernstorff claimed the
ownership Of all the papers seized he
would be on his way out of the country
within two weeks.
New Fields Opened Up.
The papers, which were left in charge
Of Wolf Won Igel, the young German
army officer who has been arrested on a
charge of participating in a plot to blow
up the Welland Canal, are said to have
furnished the Federal authorities with in
forme ton. opening up new avenues OF
investigation. naming new secret agents
and revealing much evidence for which a
search had previously been made.
The documents seem to have been en-
trusted to Won IgeI as a sort of successor
TO Won Papen. though with less authority,
with power to clean up work that had
been started and then stopped. Won IgeI,
ACCORDING to Federal authorities, looms
as promising young German upon whom
dcvoIyed a large amount Of routine work
that he was to carry on under the advice
OF older and more experienced men than
himself.
Kept Many Records.
As such, the young man was virtually

he kept in a safe bearing the seal Of :he

master for. the German spy system; that
he cashed checks drawn by Won Papen,
and other official representatives of Ger

persons sent on secret missions.

It is said that the federal investigators
have learned that Won Igel received many
