Shape So Food Can Enter the Capital. REOCCUPIED BY GONZALES WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-—~While | reports of the reoccupation of Mex- {ico City by General Gonzales lacked official confirmation tonight, it was | known that General Carranza had ordered his forces back into the eap- ital. General Carranza also directed that strong patrols be established along the Mexican rallroad between Apizaco and Mexico City to protect it from bandit raids. The order followed closely the recsipt by General Carranza of the vigorous rep- | resentations sent by Secretary Lansing urging that the raliway be reopened and | kept open so the starvipk popaiation of | Mexico City could be fed. Similar rep- resentations went to Generals Villa and Zapata, but officlala hore felt that Gea- | {eral Carranza held the key to the sit- | |uation through his control of the port of Vera Crus, Carransa Statement. The Carranza agency issued this state- ment ton'ght: “First Chief Venustiano Carransza has ordered Genmeral Fablo Gonzales to re- occupy Mexico City, in view of the re- ports In circulation with regard w0 the criticaj donditions in the capital by rea- son of the shortage of foodstuffs The orders include instructions to General Gonzales to arrange for the immediate transportation of train loads of staple articles of food at the same time his troops enter the city.” Carranza's prompt response to insist- ence by the United States was regarded here as averting necessity for immediate action by this government to insure trans- portation of provisions to the Mexican capital. Administration officlals had de- termined that provisions piled high in warehouses at Vera Cruz should be sent to the caplital. Although no announce- ment was ‘made of this government's plans it is known officials of the army and navy were ready to carry through a forcefu program. An outline of dGeneral Carranza's plans to rellove distress in Mexico City and for re-establishment of government was con- veyed to the State department today. | Strong intimations were made also that | he soon would formally ask the United | States to recognize a de facto government pending a constitutional election. Must Lay Down Arms. General Carranza is sald to be firmly resolved not to yield to any proposal for a peace conference which would necessi- tate @ representative convention. He will not talk peace with Villa or Zapata, it is stated, unless his adversaries first lay down their arms. Villa and his adherents propose to do all in their power to avert the possibility of Carranza's recelving the moral sup- port of the Urited States. To this end they have propreed the counter plan for consideration here, that all factional leaders join in a peace conference, select a man for privisiona) president and then hold regular elections. If Carranza will not yleld to this, they suggest that the United BStates support them in such a conference without him, provided they can show that they represent a majority of the people. It ia between these two plans that the United States may be forced to find a middle ground for settling the Mexican situation without armed intervention. Re-enters Capital. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., July $1.—The re- occupation of Mexico City last night by the constitutionalist troops under General Pablo Gonzales was reported in a tele- gram received here today by Samuel Bel- den, legal representative of Governor Carranzs, from Jesus Acuna, minister o® the interior. The message sald: “General Gonzales' troops reoccupled Mexico City last eve- ning with little resistance. The movement was the culmination of a campaign de- termined upon when It was found neces- sary to crush the Villa column com- those taken into his confidence. against Flerro, General Gonzales decided “General Lechuga commanded o infilct & crushing blow that should the eliminate him' as & future menace when |forces which reoccupled the city last the capital should be reoccupled.
