 Copies of official telegrams that in
 dicate Carranza's refusal to recognize l Huerta had for it's basis a more per l sonaI interest than the averaging of
 the blood of Madero," were placed in l evidence at the last hearing here to- l day of the senate subcommittee in l vestigating the Mexican situation. The 1 correspondence tends to show it was 1 not until Huerta took Carranza. then 1 governor of Coahuila, to task for al- l legged extorting of money from banks 1 at Saltillo that he determined to at tempt, by revolution, the restoration of the constitutional order. A message to the American state l department from the consular officer
 then at Saltillo, was that Carranza | had decided to recognize the new l government, but the correspondence l indicated it was sent without knowl- 1 edge of the controversy between Car
 ranza and Huerta. The dispute was l concerning the maintenance of state i troops. The former government had l appropriated annually certain l amount of money for that purpose | and regarding the continuance of the l plan it is known Madero and Carran- l ga had disagreed. The dispute was |
 of the government.
 It was from the local organization that many of the leaders of the army CarranZa later recruited came. Among them were Pablo Gonzales, Santos Coy, Lucio Blanco, Francisco Cos and Flu lalio Gutierrez.
 The controversy under the Huerta administration began February 22, with the formal notification of Car
 ranza by Alberto Granados. Huerta's s secretary of interior, and subsequent ly executed by the Carrancistas, that Huerta was the president ad interim,
 and caSed upon him to assist in the establishment of peace.
 Carranza Proposes Photographic Confab
 Suggesting a telegraphic conference, CarranZa sent the following message in reply:
 "I have just received your atten- tive message of the 22nd instant to
 which I refer To assist in the re- establishment of peace in the repub lie and to solve the delicate situation
 caused by the existing relations be-
 tween the federal government and this state, wherein a co<s<lict might occur, permit me to propose to you tele- graphic conference on the day and hour that you may be pleased to name."
 This message was sent on February %, seven days after the fall of the Hadero government and three days after the death of President Madero, and was dispatched after he had sent
 two personal representatives to the Mexican capital, as shown by the fol- lowing telegram dated February 24: Y our attentive message of yester- day. To treat of the matters to which
 l refer in my anterior message, HIT. Elizo Arredondo, member of the gen. eral congress, will leave tomorrow for your city representing this govern
 ment and also consider it proper that
 Mr. Rafel R. Arizpe, who resides in your city, shall accompany him in the same capacity, and to whom I have
 this day addressed a letter with that
 purpose in view. I hope the affairs concerning which the aforesaid gen
 tleman will speak with you will be arranged satisfactorily
 On February 27, Arredondo and Arizpe sent Carranza the following message:
 all things satisfactory with the min ister of the interior and tomorrow we will carry it through with the hon. orable president of the republic"
 On the next day, Arredondo and Arizpe wired Governor Carranza as follows:

 Carranza objected to the control of the state troops by the federal gov ernment, messages, show and disre- garding the conclusions reached with General Huerta. through his commits sioners, attempted to finance his na- tive troops by making levies on finan- cial institutions in the state of Goa huila. General Huerta, learning of this, sent the governor of Coahuila the following message which was received in Saltillo on the morning of March 20.
