ton, which Senor Cabrera declares to
be false, that an attempt is being made
to secure British support in the contro-
versy with the United States over the
lSillng and kidnapping of American citi-
Eens.
The interventionist press, accord
ing to Senior Cabrera, misintcrprets
Mcxico's resumption Of relations with
tho European nations. He declares
that during the war Mexico's interna-
tional relations of necessity were con-
cerned mainly with the United States,
but that after the conclusion of peace
resumption Of relations with other
powers was natural procedure, which
should be regarded as an inspiration
for confidence in the United States
instead of subject for unfounded
conjectures that an anti-American
motive inspires the move.
Senor Cabrera likewise mentions the
Monroe Doctrine relative to the Gin
terventionist press" charges in conncc-
tion with Mexico's European relations,
asserting that the interventionists
tactly assume Latin America south Of
Mexico as United States sphere Of
expansion.
General Critchley stated to the cor
City a week ago that ho expected to

Hugo ate his meals with Villa, the
ranchman said, and tho men in Villas
force had the same grade of food as
their commander.
"He invited me to come down and
have Christmas dinner with him." Hugo
added. :,

Z! was aroused to find myself peering

Keeps Word With Bandit
Hugo refused to 60 into details con-
cerning movements of the rebel force
while he was q Captive, as he had given
his word to remain silent on this phase.
s"Pancho Villa has traits I could not
help but admirng," Hugo continued
when he talks to you he looks
squarely in the eyes and leaves no
doubt an your mind but that he means
business. Although he has no educa-
ton, he is man &C good common
sense, and he impressed me as being
of firm character"
Hugo said Villa keeps check on all
property taken by his force, recording
