VILLA CONTINUES TO Be
SOURCE OF ANNOYANCE

Washington, May 21.-Francisco
Villa, who has defined every govern
ment in Mexico since the overthrow
of Madero, already has become an en-
barrassment to officials of the new de-
facto forces.
A report to the state department to-
day that Villa had captured and was
holding for $4,000 ransom George
Miller, superintendent Of the Alvarado
Mining and Milling company at Par
raj Chihuahua, followed report that
General Gales had fallen to obtain
from the outlaw leader an uncondi-
tional promise of cooperation.
Representatives here of the revolu-
tionary government said they doubted
the report that ransom had been
asked for Miller's release and called
attention to the repeated seizure by
Villa of Americans since the begin
ming of the year and their subsequent
release. His action was explained by
statements attributed to Villa that he
was following the course most likely
to provide him the most up to date
news and means of transmitting his
own ideas to some one on the outside.
Information reaching the govern
ment and the revolutionary agents
agrees that order in Mexico has pre-
vailed in the past few days.
,. General Arrieta, governor Of Dur
ango, has not yet announced his in
dorsement Of the new government and
a force under Gen. Juse Huertado was
rported to be moving on his capital.
Agents Of the facto government
claimed to have official confirmation
that Felix Diaz, who has been operat-
ing in southern Mexico, had asked per-.
mission to leave the country.
