Big Reduction in
 Food Crop Acreage
Field Agent Saunders Fore sees Higher Prices For Vegetables as a Conse- quence.

Boston, May 5.-A reduction of 25 per cent. in the acreage to be planted for food crops in New England this year is snown in reports to the United States bureau of crop estimates, Field Agent V. A. Szdn- ders announced today. Higher prices fer Hs Hssetables are a probable con sequence, I, he said.
 The reduction, as high as 5o per cent
 ir some cases. is heaviest on cfoos re- quiFlng much hand labor such, Is heets, carrots. lettuce and parsnips, W He 5 J'ne coarser crops, like potatoes, .sw Aes ';7rn and late squash that can be c'iitis al d with horses, are decreased pe- ceat. to Ii per cert. on the average.

However some farmers in all the regions are trying to plant full acreage of all crops, and some. will plant more, hoping that later they will somehow be able to care for their crops. , x
 Continuing, the field agents statement says that farmers are ready and anxious to plant full acreages, but have been un- able to obtain sufficient. labor at any price. Much of the labor obtained proves undependable and is willing to work only the short city hours and gives indifferent service. The acreage of potatoes in Aroostook county, Maine, which produces about so per cent. of New Englands potatoes, is yet uncertain, because the deep snows

DIMINISHING POWER OF
 CARKANZA IS RECOGNIZED

Washington May 5.-Recognition Of
 Carranza's rapidly diminishing power Tn
 Mexico was admitted by government of-g ficials today, but the dispatch of a. no tilla of destroyers to southern waters
 was not taken to- indicate that foreign-
 CTS are in immediate danger The SIX
 destroyers which sailed from New York will arrive at Key West tomorrow ana
 will be used along the east coast only Tn
 the event that necessity arises. Before
 his departure Captain Byron Long, com
 manding the. fotilla, conferred with the
 secretary of the navy, who gave nm ln-
 structions ass to the policy to be pnr- sued.
 Development of the revolution as re>
 ported to the government has been so
 rapid as to convince many officials, ana
 especially army officers, that CarranEa
 cannot maintain his authority much
 longer, not so much because he IS op-
 posed by a formidable military force as
 because he commands an army that IS daily dissolving before the rebels
 force instead of offering battle. :.
 Information obtained through off1clal
 channels has been the basis of an estl-
 mate that places the strength of the reb-
 els at almost double that of the govern
 ment. The coordination of the rebel
 forces has been hindered rather than
 aided by the rapidity with which new
 groups form in the different states and
 the promptness with which the federal
 garrisons have joined in the movement
 even before being directly threatened% Rebel claims that Carranza would have difficulty now in leaving the country are supported by reports from ofncfal sources East and west coast ports are closed to him by the operations of rebel units at various; places along the con meeting lines. His entry into the United States might yet be effected over the long line of railroad from the capital to through the Tehauntepec. Isthmus into Guatemala remains, although such l route is regarded as impracticable on ac- count of rebel operations in zones he would have to cross. In any event. the ] revolutionists assert, his departure would have to be made after the manner of an 1 ordinary fugitive and not like that Of so
 many deposed Latin American rulers.
 Such information as was available here
 continued to indicate the bloodless char acter of the revolution. The southward | movement of the rebel forces along the | west coast was continued but no reports ! Of any engagement were received. The | request for naval protection at ports on l the east coast was construed by the gov- ernment as precautionary Although no | overt act had been recorded in the vii l cinity of any of the ports, it is under l stood British consular officers concurred l with American representatives that ships should be available near Tampico, Tux pam, Vera Cruz and Fronteras to afford 1 a refuge for foreigners if conflict made | temporary retirement advisable

DELAWARE SENATE HAS
 VOTED WOMEN SUFFRAGE

Dover, Del, May 5.-The resolution to ratify the proposed federal woman suf- frage amendment, which had been in committee since March 24, was passed by the senate today upon the reassem- bling of the state legislature after re- cess Of two weeks. The vote was Il to (.
 Senators Brown and Palmer, both of Sussex county, were the only repuoIi- cans to vote against the measure, while Senator Price of Kent county, was the only democrat to support it. SuffrS gists held big demonstration in the senate chamber after the vote was announced
 It is proposed to send the resolution to the house tomorrow where speedy ac- tion on it is expected. Although the low CT branch of the legislature defeated a similar resolution on April l by a vote of 22 to g. suffragist leaders claim to have increased their. serength sufficiently to assure the concurrence of the house in the senate measure.
 Anti-suffra gists deny. this and declare sentiment in the house against ratifica- tion is as strong as ever and that the measure surely will be defeated by that body.
 Several attempts were made today to block the passage of the resolution in it's original form by the senate. The first opposition came from Senator Gorm- ley, democrat, who offered substitute rejecting the resolution. This was de- feated, Il to.5. Senator Gormley then of- fered an amendment providing referen- dunn vote Of the people, which also was defeated, the vote being d3 to l. The galleries were crowded with suf- fragists and anti-suffragises during the consideration of the resolution. At one time while enator Gormley was speaking against ratification he was interrupted by laughing and talking. The senator paused and said :: This is what we might expect when women get the vote. I de- mand as respectful hearing as was given Senator Walker, who spoke for the resolution and was not disturbed" There was no. further interruption.
