The authorized statement Is sued from the White House says: "My Judgment Is very clear and de ! elded that it is the duty of all demo- I erals in Tennessee to accommodate ; any differences they may have had In j the past and stand solidly together for I the sake of the prestige and success of the party throughout the nation. The nation Is now accepting the serv ices of the party as of the highest benefit to it. nnd every democrat should consider It part of his duty and privilege to contribute to the hearty tenmwork which has In recent months made tho party so effective In the na tion. "As I see the situation, the causes I which divided the party in Tennes see no longer exist. The thought of 1 every democrat should now be bent very earnestly towards means of union und co-operation and common nation al service. I do not see how, other wise, the democrats of the state can pull with the democrats of the nag tlon. or the country be enabled to Judge what Tennessee thinks of the present administration at Washing ton."

To Leave Chihuahua Monday. El Paso, Texas.—Coupled with the arrival here Saturday of General Felipe Angeles, Carranza’s secretary of war, were persistent rumors that General villa would leave Chihuahua Monday night for the south and that an early attack on Torreon might be expected Angeles is one of the most expert artillerymen in Mexico and was espe cially requested by General Villa to forsake his political and administra tive duties to command the big gun arm of the service In the Impending attack on Torreon. That General Villa purposes an early move received additional credence w hen It became known that George C. Carothers. special agent for the state department, said he expected to leave for Chihuahua In a day or two. Ca rothers Is an old friend of the rebel general and his particular though un official duty Is to look to the Inter ests of foreigners In places where there are no regular consuls.

Latest Declaration of Rebel Chieftain Reqardinq Policy to Permit U. S. Consuls to Act For Citizens of Other Powers Discussed VIOLATES THE COMITY OF NATIONS AND DISREGARDS INTERNATIONAL USAGE Sec’y Bryan Denies Any Knowl edge of Shipment of Arms For the American Embassy in City of Mexico. Washlnutor. D. C. —The dectarsnlon of General Carranza, outlining his policy as to th* right of American consuls In northern Mexico to act for citizens ot other powers, was transmitted prompt ly to the various powers today by dip- Ir.mstic representatives In Washington. Kmhassy and legation officials com mented on the Carranza note only In general terms. One fact Is evident— that the United States cannot continue to accept his views, defiance of Car ranza'S refusal to listen to representa tions on the old basis. They feel that thete is no warrant of law for allowing fnlted States ronsuls to accept cre dentials also from foreign governments, as seems to be required by Carranza even If the various governments were willing to bestow such powers. Starts for Chihuahua. General Carranza has cut himself off from communication by starting on horseback with his staff across the mountains of Chihuahua for the capital of that state. It will be nearly two weeka before he reaches Ida destina tion and It Is assumed at the state De partment that no change In the status of foreigners In northern Mexico Is like ly In the Immediate future. department officials feel that General Cnrranza's declaration marks a change In Ids first uncompromising attitude and that when he reaches Chihuahua he will he ready to concede to the United Sta'es the right to look after foreign In terests in the country controlled liy the Constitutionalists without the limita tions Imposed In today's declaration of policy. For Next Fortnight. For the next fortnight, at least, the old practice probably will be followed, and the state department will continue to protest against any maltreatment of fore gners or injury to their properties; while, on the other hand. Carranza >r his agents, without accepting these pro tests or representations as official w'!l note them as matters of information on which cases will bp Inx-estlgated as It they had been reported by Mexican of ficials. This situation will obtain, haw* ever, only tn localities where foreign g vermnonts have no consuls. It Is believed that In other eases the various governments will accept/'Gene ,1 Carranza's suggestion and allow t“ consuls to do business with him on a unofficial basis, which wld not carry with It political recognition. It ts re called that this was done by Europe In the confederate states during the War Between the States. Bid for Recognition. “Carranza's note is a plain bid for recognition hy this government as well ns tiy other governments," declared Senator Fall, of New Mexico. In a state ment today. "In refusing to accept the representations of American consuls re specting the Interests of foreigners whose Interests the I’ntted States has asked Its consuls to conserve. Carranza violates the comity of nations. It ts a noted peculiarly of Mexico In its dis regard of International usage.” Secretary Bryan today denied knowl edge of a shipment of arms consigned tn the American embassy tn the City of Mexico, and reported to have been de tained.
