Berlin Now Will , Welcome American Messenger, Her Enmity for America Gone Her Armies "Victorious.' THEIR SUCCESS
 PROOF OF STRENGTH It May Be Wilson's Friend will Lay Foundation for Euro pean Peace, If Allies Are Willing.
tBy Review Leased wire.)

BERLIN, May 23 fvia London May 26.)-Another visit by Col. E. M House to Europe would come as nc surprise to initiated quarters there The opinion prevails that he naturally will come prepared to offer plans for mediation.
 1t is hoped here that should Col House pay his visit he will come this time as a harbinger of peace. or at any rate, 10 prepare. if possible. the foun- dations for a peace proposal, difficult as this is recognized to be. During his last visit to Europe, Col. House made no effort and conducted no in vestigations in the direction of peace in Berlin at any event-having per haps found absolutely adverse condi- tions in capitals of nations hostile to Germany.
 Were Unready Then
 Presumably, also, he had been pro vided information that American me diation was not desired and it would not be accepted as long as the United States continues to supply Germany's foes with cannon, shells. cartridges, powder and a large amount of other munitions for waging war against the central powers.
 Moreover. no intimation had been given at the time of this visit that irascibility in high quarters here on the munitions question was in any way abated.
 Germany Ready Now
 The situation, it may be said, now has changed. Apparently there is no harm from either a political or a strategical standpoint, in saying that Germany would welcome peace. As Arthur won Gallinger, the managing director of the Deutcbe bank in Der lin stated to the Associated Press cor respondent recently. Germany is in tEe position of poker player who has gathered in all the money on the ta- ble and is now willing to break off an all-night session. while the others per sist in the hope of recouping some of their losses.
 The cards, however, to continue the simile, are running strongly in the Germans favor, it is pointed out, as shown in the renewed proof the long heralded French offensive in the west the steady though slow progress of the Crown Prince at Yerdun, the vic tories of the Turks and finally the crushing results of the Austrians in Trentino.
 Opinions Differ
 The best posted neutral observers here, particularly diplomats in touch with sentiment in this country, are in- clined 10 give a negative answer to these questions.

CHIHUAHUA. Mex, May 26.-(by courier to Fl Paso. Tex. May 26.)- Squatting in a corner of his cell in the Chihuahua penitentiary. Pablo Lopez, captured Villa bandit, gave an Associated Press correspondent the Villista explanation of the two culmin- ating crimes of Francisco Villas career-the Santa Ysabel massacre and the Columbus, N M. raid.
 Coming from Lopez. the story was almost as if from Villa himself, for Lopez was the bandits closest hench- man. his chief lieutenant and his prime aid and executioner in both affairs.
 Sitting in the shadow of approach ing death. for Pablo is to be executed just as soon as his wounds are healed, the bandit declared that in killing eighteen Americans at Santa Ysabel last January. he only obeyed Villas orders.

 Styling his leader Don Pancho", Lopez asserted that Villas move both at Santa Ysabel and Columbus was revenge mixed with a desire to waken his country to the danger of "Gringo" domination.

While Conference is Being Ar ranged by Military Leaders, Report Comes Carranza Demands Withdrawal.
CONTENTS OF NOTE
 NOT KNOWN HOWEVER
Defiant Tone Expected, For
 Mexican Consumption, Dis position of Forces Alone In-
 terests Conferees.
fsy Review Leased Wire ]

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Another conference of Mexican and American military commanders was arranged to- day. Secretary Baker announced that General Pershing, heading the Ameri- can expedition in Mexico, would meet General Gavira. Carranza's command CT in Chihuahua, at the latter's re- quest, to work out plans for closer cooperation in their military opera tions. General Funston has approved the proposal It IS believed that Gen. eral Gayira will go immediately to General Pershing's headquarters at Namiquipa for the conference.
 Some definite arrangements to
 preclude the possibility of clashes
 between Carranza and American
 soldiers, by keeying them apart,
 is expected here to be one of the
 important results of the discus
 sh3ns.
 General Funston advised Secretary Baker late today hat General Persh- ing and General tiavira had them selves arranged the conferences with his approval and ul1n specific re quest of the Carranza government The secretary said authorization of such meeting lay entirely with Gen eral Funston's discretion.
 Approval Unnecessary.
 Officials were not advised whether General CarranZa or General Obregon have approved General Gavira's re- quest and it was probable he acted upon his own initiative as he is the military commander of the state of Chihuahua
 Demands, Rumored.
 Special Agent Rodgers, at Mexico City, reported that while he had been unable to obtain from Carranza off cials any hint as to the contents of the communication about to be for warded to Washington, but news papers in the capital closely con cerned with the federal government said that it would demand immediate withdrawal of the American expedi- tion.
 Note May Be Defiant.
 While officials here believe the wording of the note would be largely for Mexican consumption. designed to appease popular indignation over the presence of United States forces in Mexico, they hope General Carranza has not gone so far as to make. an unqualified demand for withdrawal. Eliseo Arredondo. Mexican ambassa- dor designate, issued a statement to- day declaring the Carranza govern ment was doing everything in it's pow CT to bring negotiations to a satisfac- tory issue. The ambassador an nounced that the foreign office was to publish the complete text of the correspondence with the United States regarding the present situation.
