GALES CALLED
To MEXICO CITY
FOR CONF FERENCE
viii Be DNested Of One Title
So That He May Be ConSti-
tutionaI|y Elected to Cover

Douglas. Ari2., May 2.--Gen. T.
! Elias Gales has been summoned to
Mexico City by Venustieno carranza,
( head OF the dc fncto government of
Mexico for conference which viii
! terminate. friends of Gales say, in
the present military governor Of So
nora being divested of that rank but
retained as commander ln-chlef Of
the military In Sonora.
This was learned today when 1t be-
came definitely known In Mexican
circles that Adolfo dc Ia lIuerta, for
some time first assistant IN the treas
ury department Of MEXICO, had been
appointed civil governor Of sonora.
He Is said to be en- route to Sonora ut
this Time to take office.
General Gales will leave within the
next day or two for lei Paso Via the
United States, II was learned late TO-
day intending to join General 0bre-
gcn and accompany him south.
I GALES displacement as governor
has been repeatedly denied both by
him ana other Mexican officials. II
was not until this afternoon that
grudging admission was made that
there was truth In the rumor which
has persisted for several days. Az the
same time private telegrams from
Mexico City to an American mining
man confirmed the report. 1t Is now
reported in Mexican circles that Gem
cral Carfanza made the appointment
OF de Ia Hucrta after the departure Of
General Dbregon for the border and
without the knowledge or consent Of
the war secretary, who has had con-
siderable power In the past In dictnt-
ing the trend Of the Sonora situation. |
Gales friends say that the move TO |
displace him as governor is confrma- |
tory Of Il report received 4 few days
ago from the national capital, that |
General Carranza had determined to !
make Gales eommRnder-in-c chief Of |

This was Roosevelt In the White

enemy trenches and he fed his own
troops
In Washington every newspaper
man believes in Roosevelt fervently
or dsbelieves IN him bitterly. Every
congressman, every clerk. every scrub
woman is for or against him with al
whole heart. This is certainly trib-
ute TO the favor he managed TO be-
stow on the crowd he selected for fa-
vor. He used TO take selected group
of correspondents into the White

stand up by the frankness with which
he told of every move he was making

knew exactly how far they could go
