Chihuahua City. With announce
ment by Gen. r. Elias Gales that he
believed Francisco Villas political as
pirations rendered a working agree-
ment with him unlikely, hopes that
the rebel chieftain would be elimi-
mated painlessly from the arena went
glimmering. Through his emissary,
Alfonso Gomez, Villa declared he had
no intention Of being eliminated. ac-
cording to Gen. Gales. The general
stated he would publish letters from
the insurgent leader and the reply to
be sent the latter.
During the conference between Gen.
Gales and Villas envoy there was a
buzz of excitement in the Hotel Patio
wren 1t became known that the prob
able course of events In Chihuahua
for months to come was being decided.
Ezquiel Salicedo, labor representa-,
tive with Gen. Gales, has received the
following telegram from the infantry
bureau at Mexico City:
Relations between Great Britain
and Mexico are to be resumed when
the provisional president resumes Of
flee. Generals Lucio Blanco and Fran
cisco p. de Mariel, followers of Car
rama. have offered to surrender un-
conditionally. They have been or
dered to Vera Cruz to await instruc-
tions.

reported fleeing across the mountains

much bullion were recovered from the

ZIONIST, patriot and bandit, is yet a
factor in Mexican affairs, as ready
and willing to take the field against
the new revolutionary forces as he
was against the Carranza regime, he
told the Associated Press here.
Villa, the man who eluded the Amer
lean army under Gen. John j. PERISH
ing in close pursuit of him, after the
raid of Columbus. N. M, in 1916. when
Villistas raided that border town, de-
clared the successor of Carranza must
fully satisfy his ideals of government
before he would retire to private life
and quit the life of a Robin Hood"
Villa does not like Gen. Alvaro Obre-
gon, candidate for the presidency OF
Mexico. who apparently has become
the man Of the hour" in Mexico
through the country's new revolution.
Villa, discussing the revolutionary
leader, joked and laughed about Obre-
gon's actions at the convention OF
Aguas Calientes which led to the se-
lection of Carranza as president or
Mexico through split of revolution
ary leaders.
"Obregon signed the flag as did 9TH
ers at the convention" said Villa "He
kissed the flag and cried as he kissed

the agreement stole the flag with the
signatures of the delegates"

Z. S. Golf Assn Agreement With s.
Andrews Body Into Effect Today.
Chicago. Sept. Changes made in
golf rules following a conference be-
tween a committee of the United
States Golf association and a commit
tee of the Royal and Ancient Club of
St. Andrews go into effect today, with
the new changes in the rule of stand
ardization of the ball.
The new rules say that in case of
lost ball, out of bounds, or unplayable
ball. the player must go back to the
spot where he played his last stroke
and lose a stroke and distance. The
much discussed stymie rule provides
that the player. when stymied. may
remove his opponents ball and go
ahead with his putt. whereupon the
opponent shall be deemed to have
holed in his next stroke" but the rule
does not apply where the player with
in the limits of the putting green lays
himself a stymie.
The Western Golf association. Off
Gals have announced. will take no cog
nizance of the stymie ruling, as
stymics are barred in matches under
its jurisdiction.

Harrison Clarkson, the insurance ear,

the insurance rates on the new court house
and the new Santa Fe hospital. Mr.. Clark
son saws the court house is what is known
as firelroof construction. and 1t will be
heated with steam and lighted with cleo
tricity and gas. therefor the rates would be
low. The county commissioners, however.
will not put any insurance on the court
house as 1t is fireproof and they figure the
county can afford to carry its own risk.
A prominent Topeka insurance man says
the Santa Fe hospital will not be written
in Topeka. but will be included under the

policy. which is written by the Phoenix
