regarded the Incident as practically
closed.
Mr.. A~rredondo also denied to Mr.. Lam

Mexico severely criticising President
Wilson for lack Of consistency and firm
ness in dealing with the Mexican prob
lernsand adding that his words did not

Mr.. Arredondo said they were mot au.
thorIzed or official" He did not &c
into the question Of whether the Mexican

such result. and therefore will not be

THE CIVIL WAR IN MEXICO

In the early part of the year it was
evident that Francisco Villa had the
ambition to become the political War
wick. Of the republic of Mexico. On
January he deposed the provisional
governor, Gutierrez, and installed Gen
eral Cara in his place. He was still
master Of the situation at the City of
Mexico, and Carranza still maintained
his stand at Vera Cruz. Meantime, the
fighting went on uninterruptedly, with
varying results, but none decisive.
In June the situation on the border
and elsewhere became SO irritating
that the United States government
felt compelled to give official warning
to the factiOnal leaders that failure on
their part to come to some agreement
would necessitate Intervention. De-
spite this intimation, the forces Of
Villa and Carranza continued to keep
revolution afame, and by midsummer
the Mexican situation seemed to be
more inexpHcable than ever. Villas
star waned perceptibly. A new mill
tary influence, General Obregon, took
the center Of the stage. He assumed
the leadership of the Carranza faction,
and his military successes were con-
siderable. In July General Gonzales,
another Carranza supporter, fought his
way into Mexico City, displacing Cen
eral Zapata, who held the place in the
Villa interest. Later, Gonzales was
driven out and the situation was SO
threatening to life and property in the
capital that, in August, American bat
tleships were ordered to Vera Cruz,
but were not put into action In this
MONTH also. an appeal signed by Sec
rotary of State Lansing and the repre-
sentatives of South and Central Amer
lean governments asking all warning
elements in Mexico to get together in
an attempt at paciication was sent to
the various leaders. During Septem-
Der the fighting on the Mexican border
grew more desperate. There were
many fatalities before United States
troops gained control of the situation.
On October 10, nine Of the principal
governments of the American hemi-
sphere, headed by the United States,
recognized the de facto government of
Mexico Of which Carranza is the chief
