That Genera) Villa had determined
upon a break with Carransa and had
demonstrated hi attitude by imprison

constitutionalist chiefs command was
verified In reports to the state de

that Vllla'a action had served the pur

that the conqueror of Torreon and
Saltlllo would command the military
advance agalnat Huerta from this time
forth without Interruption.
- Anxiety Hollered. ,
The internecine dispute In the Mex

stirred officials, here, but Consul Ed

his difference with ihe, constitutional

that Carransa had agreed that VUla
should take supreme command in the

and prominently 4httoned m a can
