' WASHINGTON, June 17 Official in
formation reaching the Washington
Government tonight from Consul Ed
- wards at Juarez said General Francisco
Villa and General Venustiana Carranza,
leaders of the rebels in Mexico, had
patched up their difficulties and Villa
would proceed to take charge of the
military movement against Zacatecas,
where the revolutionary forces recently
met reverses.
That General Villa ' had determined
en a break with Carranza and had dem
onstrated bis attitude by imprisoning
some officers in the' first constitution
alist chief's command was verified in
reports to the State Department today.
It was declared, however, that Villa's

action had served the purpose for which
It was originated, and the conqueror
of Torreon and Saltlllo would command
the military advance against' Huerta
from this time without interruption.
Officers All On Villa's Side.
The internecine dispute in. the Mexl-
can revolutionary ranks, while media
tion at Niagara Falls rested, had
stirred officials here, but Consul Ed
wards' message served to relieve anxi
ety." Other official" dispatches' received
were to the effect that all the princi
pal officers of the revolutionary move
ment sided with Villa in his differences
with the constitutionalist first chief
ever methods of procedure in the cam
paign, and that Carranza had agreed
that Villa should take supreme com
mand in the military operations against
the Huerta government.
According to the official dispatches,
the difference between Carranza and
Villa arose over the attack on Zacate
ras. General Carranza, it was said, in
sisted that General Natera should lead
the assault and mapped out plans
which Villa did not support. Villa in
sisted, according to reports, that the
leader of the constitutionalist forces
was being Influenced by ambitious pol
iticians in the revolutionary movement
and determined that the only way to
meet the situation was to resign his
command as chief of the military forces
In Northern Mexico.
Revolt Convinces Cnrransa.
Carranza accepted his resignation
nd ordered Villa to Chihuahua to as
cue the military governorship of that
state. Immediately, it is said, all of
Villa's subordinate officers revolted.
Insisting that the first chief had made
a mistake.
Carranza then is said to have yield
ed and to have restored Villa to his
command, with instructions to pro
ceed. Significant in this connection were
reports reaching here of additional
shipments of arms by way of foreign
ports to the constitutionalist forces at
Tamplco.
Immediately following his restora
tion In command of the sitvation in
Northern Mexico, General Villa is de
clared to have ordered the imprison
ment of men who had stirred up
trouble between himself and Carranza.
- Official dispatches to the Washington
Government made no mention of this,
but the agents of General Carranza
here are said to understand the situa
tion thoroughly, and in some official
quarters the action of Villa was com
mended. General Angeles' Ability Shown.
This turn in events also was regard
ed as emphasizing the prominence and
ability of General Angeles, whose name
has been sanctioned by the United
States as one of the available men for
provisional president of Mexico if
mediation can bring the desired re
sults. Rufael Zubaran and Luis Cabrera,
the constitutionalists' representatives
in Washington, who cdnferred yester
day at Buffalo with the American
commissioners to the mediation con
ference, returned here early today and
maintained silence both as to their
mission and concerning the Villa
Carranza break. It was reported, how
ever, that they had been asked par
ticularly about the qualifications of
" General Felipe Angeles for the provis
ional presidency of Mexico.
It also was reported that when the
mediators resume their conference
with the Huerta delegates and the rep
resentatives from the United States on
Friday General Angeles' name will be
proposed to succeed Huerta, pending
an election. General Villa is declared
to be in sympathy with this move, and
some officials in Washington believe
that an armistice In the Mexican revo
lution might be effected should

KAISER WILHELM II WITH 1000

Grain Steamer I nee more Stakes Big
Hole In Huge Vessel In English
Channel Collision in Fog.
SOUTHAMPTON. England. June IT.
The North German Lloyd steamer
Kaiser Wllhelra IL which left South
ampton shortly after noon today, bound
for New York, with 1000 passengers,
lies at anchor tonight off Netley, three
miles to the southeast, with a big hole
in her side amidships, caused by a col
lision with the Liverpool grain steamer
Incemore, bound from a Black (Sea port
for Antwerp.
The Incemore, a much smaller craft
than the German steamer, is in dock
here with her bows badly Smashed.
The collision occurred In the English
channel 13 miles south of the Nab
lightship in a dense fog. Just how It
occurred and on which vessel lies the
responsibility cannot be ascertained at
present. The officers of the Kaiser
Wilhelm II have permitted no com
munication to be held with anyone on
board and they themselves refuse to
give out any information.
Such scant details as have been ob
tained came from the Incemore, which.
It is said, had virtually come to a stop
because of the danger of continuing
under way when suddenly the Kaiser
Wilhelm II loomed up.
The short distance separating the
two vessels rendered their efforts in
effectual.
The forepeak of the Incemore rapid
ly filled with water, and, although so
much down by the bows that tha pro
peller was half out of water, she
managed to crawl Into port.

Fears Increased by Delay.
The three ether balloona had been
accounted for by Saturday. When no
news had come of the laat the Spring
field, the delay led to general alarm,
which gave place in the minds of the
majority of people to a feeling that
too much time had elapsed for either
of the two occupants to be alive.
Each hour bad lessened their
chances, while the possibilities of
finding them by search, remote at any
time, had been still further lessened
by the various rumors and fictitious
reports that the balloon had been seea
here, there and everywhere.
