WASHINGTON, Nov. 13. — Gen. ‘Villa has ordered an attack orf Tam- toed San Luis Potosi, which was ed without firing a shot. Om- @lal despatches received here to-day @ay the people received Villa with an @vation. It will be several days before the ‘Filla troops will be in position to be- @in fighting at Tampico, but they are @lready taking possession of the rail- Foad ‘landing there from San Luis Potos!. About 800 Americans are in fampico. A number of American ships are in the harbor there and the American! Consul at San Luis Potosi has ar- Fanged to notify the Consul at Tam- ploo so thét Americans can withdraw to places of safety with the advance of the Villa army. Tampico is next in importance to ‘Vera Cruz as a seaport. The possi- Dility of withdrawal of American forces from Vera Crus which then ‘would fall in thé hands of Gen. Agul- Jar, who is loyal to Carranza, prob- @bly determined Villa to t Tam- ploo, to which ammunition and war @upplies can be imported and rushed overland through Central Mexico to Bie other columns. Whether Villa will fight the first t battle of the new war Bouth of Aguas Calientes depends on 4 the attitude of Gen. Gonzales, di- vision commander at Queretaro, with @everal thousand troops. Gonzales Bitherto has been a staunch friend ef Carranza and an enemy of Villa. While some despatches indicated Gonzales might stand by the conven- tion, many persons here conversant With the situation believed other- ‘wise. ‘While there still was hope that hos- tilities may be averted by the gen- erals themeelves reaching an 1 ider- \like graves, presumably for use in @tanding whereby Carranza would re- dire, officials expect that if civil war @esults, it will be much more exten- alive than anything Mexico has yet geen. Larger forces than ha ver before been under arms have been organized, as many as 100,000 men be- dng well equipped and almost that number more are available.

EL PASO, Nov. 13.—After a con- ference at Lagos, in Jalisco State, with Gen. Pablo Gonzales, Eulalio Gutierrez, new Provisional President of Mexico, to-day. telegraphed the \y Mexican peace convention at Augus- eallentes that he still has strong hopes hostilities may be averted. Gutierrez invited Gonzales to meet him at Lagos after Gonzales, one of the principal Carranza generals, had {indicated his desire for a peaceful gettlement. Only preliminary meet- ings have been held. A proposition by a number of Car- Yanzista generals to the convention that Gen. Francisco Villa be forced to leave the country has been reject- ed. The delegates adopted a resolu- tion declaring, in reply, that Vitla ‘was in complete charge of the con- Yention’s military operations and ‘would remain In complete charge.

Upon being shown the Austin, Nichols & Co. check for $684.05, on which the charge of larceny against Siegel is predicated, Mr. Keidel identified it as having been paid by the National Bank of Commerce and charged to the account of the Four- teenth Street Store on June 14, 1913.
