NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. 12.-The
selection of the Rev. DR.. Anson Phelps
Stokes as president Of Yale is expected
at a special meet ng of the CORPORA
tion or trustee board next week. Since
the resignation of President Hadley,
eleven months ago, DR.. Stokes has been
favored by large number of the cor
poratlon members, who will vote d.
rectly on the question, and his strength
has increased at every meeting.
The corporal on has been unwilling
to make any selection unit every can.
d,date was thoroughly considered, and.
although faction OF that body has in
sisted that an outsider ought to be
chosen, emphatic protests against such
action have been made by the faculty
and many alumni and undergraduates.
Because he is especially close to the
Yale situation through twenty-one
years service as un vers ty secretary
Dr. Stokes has had large following as
presidential candidate by members Of
the corporation, faculty, alumni and
student body. The corporation refuses
to discuss the matter, but it is stated
that majority favoring Dr.. Stokes
urged his selection at the meeting last
Saturday, and that il was dec ded to
defer the choice till a special session
later, at which it is believed that his
formal choice will be made.

Murguia's Rebels Beaten
In Clash With Federals

By George E. Hyde


Copyright. 1921. New York Tribune Inc
MEXICO CITY, Jan. 12. Federal
forces yesterday defeated detachment
OF Francisco Murguia's rebels at San
Luis Potosi and captured several. This
was the first clash between the govern
ment troops and Murgia's followers.
Murgula jumped his bail several DAYS
ago and disappeared, accompanied by
several former Carranzista officers.
The Department of War is reticent re-
gardlng the movemnt, but indications
are that large number of officers are
implicated with Murguia.
"A plot, involving at least three gem
erals, is reported to have been dis
covered at Pueba and several arrests
nave resulted: Meager details indicate
that DR.. Alfonso Cabrera, formerly
Governor Of Puebla, was prenared ~
turnish the necessary arms and NM
nltlons for the campaign.
The government evidently considers
the situation is serious and has issued
an order directing that all officers. as
signed or OF the reserve, report every
ilve days to the Department of War
A number of designations recentlv sub
mitted have been refused and the of :
GERS directed to hold themselves in
readiness for service.
President Obregon to-day conferred d
with the leaders of Congress on the
advisability Of calling an extra session
February !. The bills which would be
considered 4. are those interpreting Ar
tlcle ~ OF the Carranza Constitution,
which is regarded as essential to the
proper conduct of the government. The
Senate also would be directed to con-

LONDON, Jan. 12.-Allied statesme en-,
while making a certain show of pro-
found decisions Of an international
character. are really marking time and
awaiting anxiously the promulgation
Of the Harding policies regarding dis
armament, the League Of Nations and
the billions Of dollars which the Allies
owe America. These three questions.
which the incoming President must
settle within the next few months, are
regarded in England and Europe gen.
orally as Of vital Importance to the
worlds ECONOMIC and political welfare.
Every word from Marion and Washing
fon relating to them is read here with
The greatest interest, but although
much has been published the British
confess they know nothing more than
they did before che election.
With the Wilson Administration
virtually impotant and President elect
Harding exceedingly circumspect,
statesmen and diplomats Of Europe can
do nothing but Await formal announce
ment of Mr.. Harding's intentions.
The league is regarded as an accom-
plished fact, apd apparently Europe
can do nothing to influence America n
decision on this point. Ratification of
the Treaty Of Vessiles, stripped Of
oil reference to the covenant, must be
matter OF long diplomatic negot!a
tions, not only between America and
her associates in the war, but between
the Allies and Germany. Weak as the
league is, it would be weaker at the
conclusion of these negotiations; but
it is unlikely to die. The European
neutrals, the South American states
and Japan would prefer to try the pres
ent league rather than join America
in the formation of new association.
If the Treaty Of Versailles is re-
written the settlement Of the war will
take fully as long as the war itself, and
it must be remembered that Europe
is sick OF politics.
Disarmament, with America out Of
the league, is totally different prob

 The big subject of speculation here tonight was the water supply. All citizens were urged to conserve water, following the breaking of four of the seven conduits that carry water from the impounding reser- voirs to this city. Fear for the safety of the remaining conduits caused the dispatch of many guards to protect bridges over the Platte river, on which the conduits rest. The reserve supply of water stored in city reservoirs tonight was 54.00o, ,000 gallons.

 sThe trend of opinion among those of us who are inquiring into the af- fair is decidedly toward an accidental shooting -. either by a stray bullet fired from a distance or ri cochet shot discharged at the ground nearby.
 If there was murderous intent that intent was not directed against Mir. Withers.
 We are not clear as to whether the bullet was fired by a guard or not We do not wish to involve any organization unjustly, so we are pro- ceeding carefully"
