Think Lansing Has
Promised Withdrawal

Mexico City, July S.-That Secretary
of State Lansing has pledged the with
drawal OF American troops from Mexico
in his answer to the Mexican note is the
popular belief here.
The people are awaiting expectantly
for the contents of the note. 1t is the
general impression that the United
States has abandoned the idea of inter.
vention and has expressed Willingness
to negotiate future difficulties.
There is great satisfaction over the
practical solution of their difficulties

States will reach both peaceful and
satisfactory solution of trouble
Sentiment has undergone marked

WILL NOT ATTEMPT
TO AID WITH MONEY
Administration viii Make No
Move Until Carranza
Requests 1t
By Robert J. Bender.

Omitted Press staff correspondent.
Washington, July s.--President Will
son will make no effort to rehabilitate
Mexico with American money until Gen.
eral Carranza requests it. Administra.
tion officials have been informed that
any offers of financial assistance now
would meet with rebuff.
This is not due to the fact that Car.
rama does not need money, but to fears
among Mexican officials that full trust
cannot be placed in this country. Car.
rama has said in the past that any for.
eign loan would mean right of inter.
vention as a loaning power to collect its
interest. Up to the present Carranza
has refused to consider borrowing from
any foreign country.
Within the last two weeks, however,
two things have occurred which may
result in a cooperative plan between
President Wilson and Carranza from
which an American loan may result.
In the first place an earnest effort
has been made to convince Carranzista
agents of the sincerity of President
Wilson in dealing with Mexico that the
United States may be looked upon as
friend of the republic.
This work is already bearing fruit
and some of these agents are expect.
ed to return to Mexico City soon carry.
ing their report to Carranza.
In the second place, the reply of
President Wilson to Carranza Is last
note leaves the way open for the first
chief to suggest not only means of
ending the border trouble but also of
solving other problems confront him.

London, July 8.-The super-offensive
of the allies, armies entered its second
week today with the allies everywhere
attacking and maintaining their early
gains at practically every point despite
heavy counter attacks.
A heavy downpour of rain throughout
yesterday afternoon converted the bat
tie ground on both sides of the Somme
into great sea of mud last night and
seriously hampered operations. Despite
this handicap. the French war office to-
day claimed slight further progress
sonth of the Somme, with the taking Of
400 prisoners.
The British troops north of the Som.
me, after scoring important successes
against the Germans in yesterday g
fighting, contented themselves last
night with improving their positions.
The fighting at the village of Contalma-
isOn reported a deadlock during the
night, with the British holding the
western and the Germans the eastern
part of the ruined town.
No official estimates of either the
German or British losses have been
made by the war office since the of.
fensive began at 1880 last Saturday
morning, but the Germans are unoffici-
ally reported to have lost from 10000
to 10000 in killed and wounded besides
nearly 10000 taken prisoners by the
British and French. Special dispatches
From Paris today reported that 5000
Prussian guardsmen, the flower of the
.kaiser's army, were killed in the early
days of the fighting, but this may be
an exaggeration.
British Capture Gains.
General Haig reported that in the
last few days the British have captured
20 guns, 81 machine guns, numerous
. automatic rifles. trench mortars, mine
throwers and other war material.
The operations on the Russian front,
where the Slav offensive continues to
apread and develop in power, are being
watched with the greatest interest here.

Rumors About Bandit.

Washington, July S.-"Unsupported
rumors were again received today of the
presence Of Villa at place called
Canutillo, on the Rio Florida, west of
Parral,' said a war press bureau an.
nouncement today.
"It is said that Villas wounds were
caused by bullet that passed through
the back muscles of both thighs without
striking bone and that Villa has re-
covered sufficiently to walk with a
limp and to ride with greater ease" the
statement said.
The war department did not place
faith in this or other stories that Villa
is alive. The state department, which
also has reports on the subject was
less skeptieal.
