Between the claims and counter claims of the Villa and Carranza supporters .the matter sifted down to the * fact that there will be peace between : Carranza and Villa for the time being at least; that the war against Huerta < will be pressed and that Villa will ‘ do as he pleases and Carranza will < rretend to sanction- it all. ’ In return Villa will continue to .maintain his loyalty to the “ssupreme ( chief.” The conference has had the ‘ -< effect of putting Villa closer to the 1 Carranza generals, Obregon and Gonzales, and their commanders and is I expected to bring results in the field. I Villa to Have Center Position. The conference has brought all lead- 1 ers or their personal representatives ‘ together and in future Villa promises • to co-operate with these commanders. They promise also to co-operate with < him. Villa is to have the center po- < sition in the march on Mexico City « and when he cannot get coal from his own territory the Carranza element < will supply it.

As the exigencies of his campaigns arise Villa will issue his money as his armies advance. All that Villa has consented to do is to allow Carranza to retire Jjib paper with Carranza paper.

VILLA TO SHAKE ; CARRANZA HAND I War ill Mexico “Will Now Go on in Peace.” PANCHO TO GIVE UP FUNDS Officers of the Supreme Chief Whom Military Leader Imprisoned at Chihauhua Will Be Released—Agreement Indicates Angeles for Provisional President. El Paso, Tex., July 8. —Announcement has come officially that the differences between the Mexican rebel leaders, Pancho Villa and Venustiano Carranza, have been healed and that “the war will go on in peace.” Villa wired his officials in Juarez to surrender the funds of the Carranza governmment and it was -given out in Saltillo headquarters of Carranza that Villa would journey there and shake hands with Carranza and renew his pledge of loyalty to “the supreme chief.’\ Official statement of the points settled was kept a secret. Whether certain officials surrounding Villa and Carranza have been eliminated is not known, but the understanding of the lieutenants of both pricipals is that “certain changes will be made by both Carranza and Villa in the personnel c-f the men surrounding them." The chages will be made gradually. Angeles to Remain. General Felipe Angeles, against whom Carranza has a personal grudge apparently, is to remain with the Villa army with the title of general-in-chief .of artillery, according to friends of Villa. Villa will remain supreme in command of his army and is, in addition, to have command of the two co-operat-ing Carranza armies in the move against Mexico City. Both Oberegon on the west and Gonzales on the east will take orders from Villa in the campaign. Villa is to permit Carranza to retire all his outstanding fiat money with an issue of the constitutionalist government, but will issue his own script as the necessities of it require. Villa Concessions to Stand. Carranza is not to interfere with concessions granted by Villa. Villa is to surrender at once all the money he confiscated from the Carranza government on the occasion of his break with Carranza, likewise the money which Santiago Winfield is alleged to have smuggled to Villa out of the $3,000,000 issue of Carranza currency recently printed in Washington and Villa is to release Carranza’s treasurer, General Serapio Aguirre, and other Carranza officials held prisoners in Chihuahua. Villa will continue to name his own civil officials in the territory which he conquers or holds. Angeles for President, When Mexico City is taken “the chiefs of the forces in the field” will select a man for provisional president who will then attempt to pacify the country and hold constitutional elections. This last clause is taken by many to mean that General Angeles will be the -provisional president when the final victory over Huerta is won, if ever it is.
