Philadelphia. immediate crisis
IN American Mexican relations was
reached and passed at the second ses-
sion OF the American Mexican COM
mission.
On the result of the session depend.
ed whether conferences would con-
hnue, or relations between the United
States and its neighboring republic
would revert TO their former status.
A brief statement was made follow
ing the session setting forth the
views of Gem Carranza on the pro-
tOcol signed by the commission at At.
lantic City last month. For the first
time, also, It was announced officially
that Carranza had refused to ratify
the protocol as agreed upon by the
commission.
During this period, II is understood,
Secretary of the Interior Lane, chair
man of the American section of the
commission, will lay before President
Wilson the objections made by First
Chief Carranza to the tentative agree
ment signed at Atlantic City. These
objections, 1t was stated unofficially,
are to the following provisions of the
protocol and the American sections
understanding OF It:
First-The indefinite character of
the troop withdrawal clause.
Second-American insistence on the
right of troops to cross into Mexican
territory In pursuit of bandits when
the trail is "hot."
Third-The alleged efforts OF the
administration to take hand in Mex
lean internal affairs.
On the attitude taken toward these
points by President Wilson depends
the future life of the commission and
the success or failure of its efforts to
reach basis of understanding for fu-
ture relations between this and the
de facto government of Mexico. 1t was
pointed out by those in touch with
both sections of the commission that
the Carranza government would have
nothing to gain and everything to lose
by terminating the sessions. The
Pershing column would then be in
Mexico, It was pointed out, with no
provision for its withdrawal, and the
American border patrol would be main
tanned at full strength to guard the
boundary and back up Gen. Pershing.
There has been suggestion, how
ever, that Carranza is not at all de-
sirous of having the Pershing column
withdrawn, as II forms a bufwark be-
tween villa and the western portion
OF Northern Mexico.
Meanwhile the figure of villa con-
tinues to grow ominously bigger ON
the Mexican horizon. II was frankly
admitted by those closely connected
with the commission that the so-called
bandit cannot be overlooked as a big
factor in Mexico much longer.
His military force is superior in
training and effectiveness to the Con-
stitutionalists, II was said, his troops
are paid in silver and he has ammu-
milton TO burn. The statement was
made also that he is actually turning
away ex-Carranzistas who seek TO en-
list.

BREAKS LIMB IN FALL.

Mrs. E. S. Fisher sustained brok-
en- limb last night as a result of fall
while returning from calling on a
neighbor. She had been across the
way to the home of Mrs. ]. r. Pow
ell and when returning home she
missed a step leading from the front
porch ard fell on the concrete pave
ment. All of her weight was thrown
on her right limb, breaking it be-
tween the hip and knee. Doctors
were summoned and the injury
dressed but it proved to be very
painful and will no doubt keep Mrs.
Fisher in bed for some time. There
are many of her friends who will re-
greet to learn of her misfortune and
who hope that she will soon recover.
