Thousands Starving in Capital,

While Tons of Food Held Up By Various Factions Five Miles From City.

WASHINGTON, March 31. Thou

sands of persons are on the verge of

starvation in Mexico City, while at Toluca, only five miles distant, there

ire tons of food, unavailable becauso

the state department cannot get co

operative action between the tactions

in the city and out of it.

The Brazilian minister at Mexico

City telegraphed the state department today that the international committee had iiurt'hase l ;O0.'.oo pesos worth

it food stored itt Toluca and that the lunger conditions remained about the

same in the capital.

Oltteials of the department say that

the deplorable condition is clearly

due to the failure of negotiations un

dertaken by the state department with Carranza and Minister I'alafox of Zapata's cabinet. The last statements from the department were that these officials would agree to let food get in. The report from the Brazilian minister shows that the negotiations have collapsed or at best have never gone further than suggestion!. The belief at the department is that Gen. Obregon, when he evacuated Mexico City, carried away with him all the locomotives and cars and has not been willing to send any of them back to Mexico City. Advices to the Villa agency here are that Gen. Villa will begin another attack on Matamoras tomorrow. The state department dispatches say that Villa is only waiting for artillery. Villa has gone southward toward Torreon to reorganize the force, that will be sent against Tampico and Vera Cruz after the fall of Matamoras. The war department is watching the situation at Brownsville. One battery of artillery has been stationed there for some time but this probably has now been reinforced by three other batteries .ordered there from

Fort Sam Houston.

The action of Gen. Funston at

Brownsville will be directed by the

state department. It was stated to

day that his recent orders were

O. K.'d by the state department and that he has been specifically ordered

not to fire under any circumstances

unless he is instructed from Washing

ton.

State department dispatches this afternoon state that one of Villa's

armies is about to attack Nuevo La redo.

A dispatch from Vera Cruz tells of

the looting of a sugar plantation at El Potrero. GO miles from that city. The

manager has appealtd to Carranza for

protection.
