AN - IMPORTANT - POINT Key to All of Central Mexico North of Zacatecas—Rebels Gather in Great Numbers on the Westérn Coast. Washington, Jan. 22—Without ex~ pectation of any immediate change in the political phases of the Mexican situation, now that the Huerta Bov- ernment has passed through the ordeal of the announcement of its intention to default on interest -payments on the national debt, officials here have set- tled down to’close observation of the developments fn the military campalgn. . Desperate Battle at Torreon. Army officers believe that by the middle of next week General Vilia will have successfully transported his vie- torious constitutionalist army as far south as Torreon, where the next big battle of the revolution is expected to follow.) It is known that the federals are disposed to make a desperate re- sistance at this point, which is the key to all central Mexico north of Zacatecas, and federal reinforcements are being hurried north from the cap- tal. No New Proposals from Huerta. On the west coast, after the tempo- rary advantage gained by federal forces in skirmishes yesterday, the rebels are reported to be gathering in great numbers in the country lying behind Mazatlan and Acapulco. President Wilson let it be known to- day, that while he was in_coustant commurtication with John Lind, the latter had reported no new proposals as having been made by Jesus Flores Magon or any other person supposed | to be representing Huerts. STILL LOYAL TO HUERTA. Mercado Names Avenue at Fort Bliss His Honor. El Paso, Texas, Jan. 22.—General Salvador Mercado, who commanded the Mexican federal army which was rout- ed from Ojinaga, Mexico, today was placed in command of the camp of his interned soldiers and refugees at Fort Bliss. As a token of his continued loyalty to the government at Mexico City, General Mercado at once chris- tened the main street of the camp “Avenue General Huerta.” Although. himself one of the interned refugees who are not permitted to leave the reservation, General Mercado was Se- lected by the United States army offi- cials as best fitted to have personal supervision over ‘his men, Smuggling Ammunition and Cattle. .

WASHINGTON HOPEFUL Administration Confident of Reaching Satisfactory Agreement—Raker Bill Another Trouble-Breeder. N Washington, Jan. 22.—Baron Maki- no's statement in the Japanese parlia- ment yesterday regarding the status of the megotiations in regard to the California. alien land legisiation ex- cited the greatest interest in officlal circles here today. Although, under @ special. agreement between the two governments, (he Jupanese foreign minister refrained from making public the details of the exchanges, his stute- ment was informative in many uar- ters, and particularly in congress. May Frame New Treaty. In administration circles there was a feeling of optimism regarding the re- lations Letween the United States and Japan, and the highest offici pressed the opinion that a satisf agreement between the two countries soon would be reached. There was no intimation as to the probable basis of such an agreement, However, when at- { tention was called to the fact that he ast | negotfations had been suspended August because of a radical difference of opinion between the two govern- ments as fo the meaning of the exist< ing treaty, one of tae officials who would be ’directly concerned in the vroceedings suggested that the proper way to meel such a condition would be to frame a new treaty which woul precisely define the rights of each party that there could be no further difference of interpretation. ration Bill. the exchanges this idea of an adjus ment by a new treaty was mentioned, though today it was stated that Japan had not made any formal request for such a convention. Therefore, it Is believed that the way is still open for. the resumption of the negotiations on that basis in the near future, and it was suggested that this probably was what Baron Makino had in when he referred to “other ways’ dealing with this issue. The matter before the house com- mittee today was a discussion of the treaties and points of international law bearing on the pending Raker immi- gration bill. A brief John Bassett Moore, counsellor of the of state department, set forth that in sev- | eral instances the measure probably would contravene existing treatles, particulariy insomuch as it would vio- late “most favored nation” ciauses.

In this connection the baron stated em- phatically that Japan already had benefited by her alliance with Great Britain and expected in the future “greater proof of its efficicncy maintenance of the integrity of Cl The ldzumo was sent to Mexico, the baron said, because the disturbances in that country made it necessary to take steps to protect the 3,000 Japanese subjects whose lives and mj pgered by the . both sides of the border, because of reported smuggling.
