VERY ACTIVE
PROSPECTS OF WAR WITH UNI
TED STATES CAUSES GREAT
ACTIVITY IN MEXICO.
FACTIONS UNITED

Assuring Him Of Support-Wil-

MEXICO CITY. juno 2..-Mcxi

MEXICO CITY. juno 2t.-Mcxi-
can military officers are displaying
great activity In view OF prospects
for war with the United States. They
have been ON the move day and
night since the International situa-
tion became critical, though the
city Is quiet so far ms the civil pop
ulation Is concerned.
General Carranza was In consul
tation with his ministers until late
hour last night. The reply to Pres
ident Wilson's note was the chief
topic OF discussion. All leading Of
ficials refused to talk for pmblica-
tion, though the general sentiment
is that the note was unsluIy antago-
nistic In some portions, based on a
misunderstanding of the facts.
There is no Indication as to when
Carranza's reply will he sent to
Washington. Officials declared posi-
lively, however, that no intination
of its contents would be permitted
TO be cabIed or published until II
had been received and published in
full in the United States. The Ann
crican government was criticised be-
cause the New York newspapers
printed synopsis of the American
note week before 1t was received
here.
Little public interest is being
shown in the note which has not
been published here. The general
belief is that Carranxa, In his reply
to President Wilson, will combat
vigorously some of Wilson's state
ments, especially the alleged pres
ence OF constitutionalist troops
among the bandit raiders.
Telegraph wires from all parts OF
the republic are bringing assurances
of support to Carranza In case OF
hostilities with the United States.
Officials believe the proclamation of
amnesty issued Thursday will unite
all factions Of any consequence in
the country in opposition to an in
vading army.

Eddy Brown. a young American vlo-
linist. who has been eXtravagantly and
perhaps somewhat injudicious!y hailed
on the billboards. made his first ap-
pearance in New York yesterday after
noon in Aeolan Hall Mr. Brown
proved himself an excellent and au-
thortative artist. who in style and
manner has patterned himself after
Fritz kreisler. This does not mean
that he is second Kreisler. as his her
aiding would have US believe. but ne
is none the less a young artist VINO
ought TO make place for himself in
the American concert world
He has temperament that is sutii-
GENTLY restrained. dash, poise, a warm.
pure tone and sound musical feeling.
lie still lacks little IN polish. but
both emotionally and technically he
proved himself one of the best equipped
young yiolinists now before the public.
his programme yesterday consisted
OF the Tartini Devils Trill." the
Bruch Concerto IN g. minor. the
Beethoven Romance in e.. the Schu-
mann-Auer "Nogel ais Prophet" the
Tartini-Kreisler Variations on a Theme
of Corelh, and severa. shorter NUM-
beers. The audience was large. and gave
the young violinist welcome both
warm and sincere.

While the dinner was one or the
largest ever given in private nome III

was the diversity il position and actlvi-
