GENERAL HILL MAY FIGHT Next Move Is TJp to First Chief and Opposing Northern Army Means Also Giving Battle to Forces of Maytorena. EL. PASO, Sept. 21. War clouds again hung over Northern Mexico today. In spite of official denials from all sources except officials at Mexico City. Gen eral Carranza, in power as chief execu tive of the national capital, remained silent regarding General Villa's In vasion of Sonora. The first chief, how ever, conversed for many hours today, over leased wires, with Rafael Muz juiz, his agent here. The next move admittedly from all sides must be made by the Carranza" government. The movement of some 6000 Villa troops Into the western bor der state progressed under the leader Ship of General Felipe Angeles, de nosed as secretary of war from the Carranza cabinet. It was learned definitely that General Benjamin Hill, commanding constitu tionalist troops In Sonora, has not been ordered to move from his post by Car ranza. Combat la Indicated. Indications were that he would com bat Villa's invasion of the state. In doing this he also would have to meet the Taqul Indian troops of Governor Jose Maria Maytorena, who has begun an open revolt against the central gov ernment. General Villa will not take part in person in the convention of chiefs which Carranza has called for October 1 at the national capital. This was announced in a telegram addressed to the Associated Press from Luis Aguirre Benavides, Villa's secretary. .He said, however, that Villa's generals would participate in the meeting which is de signed to make arrangements for gen eral elections in the republic. Benavides, as well as General Obre gon, in telegrams denied reports that Obregon had been imprisoned or had had any estrangement with General Villa. Obregon said in his message that he would proceed Immediately to Mexico City. Execution Is Threatened. Persons who were witnesses of the trouble at Chihuahua city last Friday, however, said Villa had placed Obre gon under arresj, threatening to shoot him and all members of his staff, but later had altered his verdict. The trouble arose, they said, over the in vasion of Sonora, Obregon's native State. Obregon recently has been acting as mediary between Carranza and Villa. Obregon Is commander of the north western military zone, inciuaing ' me state of Sonora. Villa commands with equal rank the central zone, of which Chihuahua, his native state, is a part.

Mr. Russell Is traveling over the Union Pacific lines as the guest of B. L. Winchell, of Chicago, traffic manager of the road.

TARIFFS READY OCTOBER 1 Interstate' Commerce Commission Thinks Public, Which. Demands Comfort, Safety, Speed . and Iaxnry, Should Pay for Them. WASHINGTON. Sept. 21. Interstate passenger fares, in both Eastern and Western territories, are to be increased by the railroads in the immediate fu ture. The new rates will be fixed on a basis of 2 cents a mile, but will vary slightly in particular cases from that base. Information received by the Inter state Commerce Commission is that the straight fare between New York City and St. Louis, for instance, will be ad vanced $2. The fares between New York and intermediate points will be based on the increase between the two large terminals. The fare between New York and Chi cago will be based entirely upon a 2ii-cent-a-mile rate, and as far as prac ticable the fares between New York and intermediate points and Chicago and intermediate points will bear a like mileage charge. Because of the laws of some intermediate states fix ing the maximum of Intrastate pas senger fares at 2 cents a mile some dif ficulty is experienced by railroad of ficials in working out the details of the proposed advance in interstate rates, but it is expected that these dif ficulties may be removed. The preparation of the new pas senger tariffs now is in progress and it is expected that they may be In readiness to file with the Commission by October 1. The determination of the railroads to raise their passenger fares is a di rect result of the suggestion of the In terstate Commerce Commission in its decision of the advance rate case. The Commission expressed its belief that the passenger traffic of railways ought to bear its proportion of the burden of sustaining the roads and that the traveling public, which demanded speed, safety, comfort and luxury in passenger facilities, ought to be willing to pay for them.
