THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, JUNE 23, 1914. ANGELES ACCUSED AS HUERTA AGENT Carranza's Secretary Avers Genera! Was Real Cause of Strife With Villa. BREACH IS HELD SERIOUS Imprisonment and Attempted Shoot jng of General Cbao and Similar Acts Attributed to Out- side Machinations. WASHINGTON, June 27. Alfredo Breceda, private secretary of General Carranza, leader of the revolutionist forces in Mexico, issued a statement here tonight charging that General Filipe Angeles had stirred up the re cent contention between Carranza and General Villa and that Angeles was in reality an agent of General Huerta. Breceda's statement, issued after a long conference with Luis Cabrera, one of General Carranza's representatives here, who is earnestly working for par ticipation of the constitutionalists in an informal peace conference with del egates to the Niagara Falls mediation conference, ' admits & breach in the constitutionalist ranks that probably cannot be healed unless mediation should succeed. Trouble Can Be Composed "The troubles between Villa and Car ranza have not all the importance that has been supposed and can be com posed when the real causes of the break become known," says the state ment. "Villa, who had been the leader showing the most spirit and vindlc tiveness in the war against Huerta, has appeared always in an entirely sub ordinate character to Carranza and en tirely submissive to Carranza in spite f persistent attempts made to make him appear as holding personal ambi tions and as disloyal toward Carranza. "Villa always had continued being loyal toward Carranza and had it not been for the interference of Felipe Angeles, who Is the chief author of the happenings occuring lately, there never would have been any differences. Whenever the insubordination of Villa Is spoken of we ought to say the insub ordination of Angeles. Angeles Educated la. War. "General Angeles was a commander In the federal army. He was sent on a mission to Europe by Huerta. He stayed there until October, 1913. He then asked to Join the ranks and the colors of the rebel army. Angeles was accepted. He received money for his family and for his trip. He was wel comed by Mr. Carranza, who, in view of Angeles' being a technical military man, appointed him sub-secretary of the war department. His nomination was well accepted by the revolutionary leaders, as they considered him entirely educated in politics under the federal ideas. As a matter of fact, he always tried to keep apart from Mr. Carranza and the revolutionary leaders. "The trip of Carranza from Sonora to Chihuahua coincided with the be ginning of the military activities against Torreon, and then, yielding to the wishes of Villa, Angeles was sent from Sonora to help Villa in the in vestment of Torreon. .-. . Change In Villa Noted. - "Since the arrival of Angeles near Villa a change in the attitude of the latter was felt, nearly all the acts of Villa meaning disagreement with the acts of Carranza, such as the imprison ment and attempted shooting of Gen eral Chao, which were due to the ad vice of Angeles. On June 12 Carranza asked Villa to send some reinforce ments to Natera, who was at the time Investing Zacatecas. Villa, acting under the advice of Angeles, refused to send such reinforcements unless he could take charge of the assault, doing all with his own forces. Carranza in sisted. Villa refused again, and in a fit of anger tendered his resignation as military commander of the northern division. "Carranza found himself obliged to accept the resignation, but. wishing to follow democratic proceedings, he con voked the officials, who were under the order of Villa, that they could choose by themselves their active leader. But officials. Influenced by Angeles, refused to appoint a substi tute and agreed to support Villa as their leader, and they were thus in an attitude of disobedience toward Car ranza "Attempts have been made to patch up the break and to induce Villa to re cede from his attitude. Nothing had been obtained until Villa realized that most of the revolutionary leaders had assured their loyalty to Carranza and that the real purpose of Angeles was to use him as a tool for his ambition to become Provisional President of Mexico. Then Angeles' purpose became vain. "In view of thlc revelation. Villa has decidedly agreed to postpone the dis cussion of his grievances until the revolution has triumphed. Carranza has also considered that the campaign against Huerta must be the chief pur pose and that It would be Impolitic to spend time in an attempt to subdue Villa. Military Leader Rule. "The principal foreign element doing this work in favor of Villa are two intimate friends of Mr. Lazaro de la Garza, the financial agent of Villa One of them is a fellow of many doubtful connections in the United States and he claims to have in Washington people to help him in official circles. The other one is an American who has posed during several months as a confiden tial agent of the State Department for the revolution, but who as a matter of fact has only been a political attache and adviser of Villa in international matters. The attitude of this man, who is an Intimate friend of De la Garza, has led Villa and Angeles to be lieve they could count on the sym pathy and the support of the Washing ton Government which, to a great ex tent contributed to encouraging the Insubordination that existed in the in terior. "Carranza Is the first chief of the constitutionalist army, according to the plan of Guadalupe, which is the law under which the revolution is carried on. This leadership was given to Car ranza by the military leaders who sup ported the revolution and by all the subservient followers .. -o hava rati fied this leadership, when they Joined the revolutionary movemc t. This lead ership cannot be taken from Mr. Car ranza unless by agreement of the ma jority of the military leaders. QUEENS MEET IN CITY Regal ta Ruler Asks Thelma, of Rosaria, to Be Guest.

SECRETS GET-OUT; SENATORS STIRRED Move Made to Investigate Be trayal of Confidence Con cerning Treaties. STONE MAKES STATEMENT Senate's Consent to Inquiry 19 Ex pected' Demand for Considera tion In Open Senate Be comes Stronger. "WASHINGTON, June 27. Stirred to action by the apparent freedom with which the proceedings of the foreign relations committee in consideration of the Nicaraguan and Colombian trea ties have been published from day to day, several Senators today agreed on a resolution asking for authority to subpena Senators and Washington cor respondents to an inquiry to determine how the proceedings of the committee which are supposed to be especially secret get out. Chairman Stone introduced the reso lution, and it was referred to a stand ing committee which decides on the ex pense involved in such investigations. It is- expected that the Senate will pass it. Confidence Betrayed, Sy Stone. With the resolution Chairman Stone read into the Congressional Record this statement: "All newspaper reports of what has occurred In the committee on foreign relations in its procedinga regarding the Nicaraguan and Colombian treaties are unauthorized and inaccurate and are, moreover, unworthy of belief, be cause whoever gave out the alleged in formation betrayed the confidence of the committee and Government, and de liberately violated his word of honor. "No man on that committee," de clared the Senator to his colleagues, "can give out the confidential business except he has on him the brand of ab solute dishonesty and betrayal."

Evidence that not all Senators entire ly approve the idea that the commit tee's proceedings shall be secret was given by Senator Norris, who is not a member of the foreign relations com mittee. He offered a resolution that all Senators be furnished with copies of the daily testimony 'before the commit tee on the treaties, that Senators who were to vote on the matter should have the benefit of it. One result of today's developments was to strengthen the determination of several Senators opposed to the treaties to make an effort to have them consid ered by the Senate in open session.

"Beginning next week," he said to night, "I shall see no one at Sagamore Hill except by appointment. If others come I shall have to decline to see them." ... . He added that there would be at least one advantage in this arrange ment. Family Ties Renewed. "It will give me an opportunity to renew my acquintance with Mrs. Roosevelt and my children and grand children," was the way he put It Colonel Roosevelt was asked whether the burden of taking the lead in the Progressive campaign would be shifted to another's shoulders.

Details to Be Avoided. He nevertheless expects to ksep in close touch with the more prominent leaders, such as George W. Perkins, of New York, and in a general way to direct the campaign. All important matters of policy will be laid before the Colonel, but he intends to free himself from details so far as possible. Colonel Roosevelt is said to be suf fering chiefly from the effects of ma laria, contracted in South America. The physician said if he did not shake this off he might never recover his full strength.

COMPROMISE WILL COME Senate lias Stricken Out House Measures for "Trading" Purposes and Senator Borah Will de mand Aid for West. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. June 27. River and harbor ap propriations carried by the pending river and harbor bill probably will not be avaallsble before August 1 and It may be two or three weeks later when that bill becomes law. While the river and harbor bill is meeting with oppo sition in the Senate at present, the real delay Is expected to come after the bill passes the Senate and has been whipped into final shape by the conference committee. There are radical differences be tween the bill as It was reported to the Senate, and these differences In themselves are serious enough to lead to a long delay. The Senate dellber ately struck out several House Itms for "trading" purposes. These differences, however, will be reconciled eventually, and when the conference committee re ports it will be necessary for both the Senate and House to accept the bill in its compromise form. Opposition voiced by Senator Burton and others Is regarded as preliminary to the fight they will make on the conference report, and these Senators may be Joined later on by Senators from ths' Western states unless Con gress In the meantime passes the bills on the conservation programme. Con gress also must pass the Vorsh Mil er some other bill arsntlng relief to homesteaders by amending the cultiva tion clause of the three-year act. Not a few Senators Irom the West are embarrassed by the threat of sen ator Borah, for while they ermi thlie with the Idaho Penator la Ms desire for legislation that will aid the homesteader, they also want la secure funds for river and harbor work In their states with as little delay as pna Ibis. These Senators have teen mail ing the plea that It will not be neres sary to hold up the river and lisrbor bill to force the passase of murk needed land lealslatlon. They point eut that the Admlnlstrstlon will see te It that the demands of the West are met to a reasonable extent. Promises of this sort will have re effect. Senator Borah has received as surance of support from other lenstors Interested In land legislation and he and they feel that the only sure wsy to get action on the land and con servation bills Is to hold s ck some thing that the entire Se.iale wants and thereby fores the Senate to come to time. Irrespective of whet the "enaters from the West may do. the river and harbor bill cannot be put Into shape for final passage Inside of a month, and If the leaders are In good faith In promising to pass land and conserva tion legislation, they can get those bills through and up t the President while the river and harbor Mil Is be Ing put Into shape for final adoption.
