wWilneton. May 12. Mexico may
anxin overhung- with clouds of trouble
tout there's, ti silvor llnlns beneath. Be
loro manylays tho situation will havo
clarified,
Thora wilt lio nn ail Interim prcsl
dent named y agreement between
Generals Fabalo Oonzalcs an.l Ohcrgon,
tho two now chiefs In tho now revolu
tion, and the program of the United
StftttVJ povornmcnt upon which rccog
tiltlon wilt bo conditioned will lo re
veal ed.
Two factors nro necessary to solve
Mexico's problems adjustment of ex
ternal relations, particularly with tho
United States, und satisfaction of In
ternal demands for a democratic sov
ernmont, frco from the tryrnniiical
Mid illotatorial abuses of tlio Carranza
regime.
Agreement with the United States
will not bo difficult. J.'or will the re
quests of the Unite 1 States Kovern
mcnt. be severe. Pacification of Mex
Ico's various factions depends upon
the patriotism of General Gonzales and
Gen. Obergon. Both havo arrived in
Mexico City. Don Pablo, as tho former
Is affectionately called, Is a t;ood bus!
noss man. Ho hns shown onco bofore
ho'w to establish, ordor in tho Mexican
capital. Ho won tho confidence! and ad
miration of foreigners generally, when
he entered Mexico City, after Huerta
fled. Ho deliberately wont counter to
Carranza's spurious neutrality pro
pram during- tho war with Germany
and camo out flatly ngatnst tho Cen
tral rowers. This happened, too, just
after tho United States entered tho
war. Ho was tho only pro-ally Mex
ican of prominence and government
circles.
General Obregon, also has a whole
some respect for the United States. Ho
has traveled extensively and was Im
pressed with our wnr operations and
preparations as the war department ex
hibited them to him. Ho ia a business
man. Ho has made a big' fortune selling
"Gnxbanzas," or "chick peas," In tho
export trade.
Therefore, Mexico Is ruled to-day by
two men of business minds. They under
stand tho language of commerce and
should makn it posslblo to do what Car
ranza. lias so Htubbornly refused to do,
namoly, make a business agreement with
the United States, looking toward tho
commercial advantages of both countries
I and the economic regeneration of Mexl-
I co particularly.
. Ever slnco Carranza camo into power,
Jie haa bctn at tho mercy of Generals Obre
gon and Gonzales. So long as they wero
loyal, the Carranza rcgimo lasted. Both
were iona or carranza. Jioin expecioci
his support in the raco for tho presi
dency. But Carranza went back on both
his friends. Ills attltudo In tho prelimi
nary elections was so raw that It com
pletely alienated both Obrogon and Gon
zales. Thoy saw that Carranza was us-
Ing tho governmental machinery for his
I own purposes, nnd would not permit

i fair and free election. So they determined
o get rid of him. And the bloodless revo
lution is the result nf a working agree
ment between Obregon and Gonzales. The
entire Mexican army was devoted to
Gonzales and Obregon under whom they
fought so many battles. It was easy for
these two generals to take possession of
Mexico by military force and with a mini
mum of fighting. Carranza, a civilian
never was held In such esteem by the
military.
Both Obregon and Gonzales met In Mex
leo City before the revolt and dined to
gether at tho C'hapultcpcc Inn and came
to an agreement, the details of which aro
expected to bo made known at any time
now. Presumably they havo agreed upon
an ad interim president, who will call a
constitutional election in which Obrogon
and Gonzales will have nn equal oppor
timlty.
Meanwhile, the Washington government,
which has had such a perplexing experl
enco with Carranza, Is rather relieved at
his enforced abdication and Is getting
ready to present to tho now Central au
thority a program upon which defacto
recognition would be extended
Here It is: First the appointment of a
mixed claims commission to settle all
claims pending against the United States
1 and against Mexico, on the part of na
tlonals of both countries. Carranza ap
i pointed a commission of Mexicans and
1 the department of Slate advised Amcrl
I cans not to submit their claims to such
a tribunal.
Second: A pledge guaranteeing protec
tion to the lives and property of American
i citizens, a.nd particularly removing all
I doubt about vested rlsrhts prior to the
I adoption of the Mexican constitution of
, J91S.
Third: An understanding concerning the
distribution of tho waters of tho South
. Colorado Blver, which affects W.OOO Amer
icans in tho Imporlal Valley
Fourth. An adjustment of tho situation
created by tho expropriation, by tho Car
ranza regime of waterways, Irrigation
projects and other improvements made
by American citizens on Mexican terri
tory. Fifth: Bemoval of tho decree forbidding
. Americans to own real estate In tho so
called frontier zone, both on the border
und along the sea-coasts

IX JIMMORV OF MA V 1, 1S0S
Listen, now daughtors and you shall
hoar
Not a hint or a lisp of one Taul Revere,
But the blood-stirring tale of a "favor-
ito son"
Whose claim to true greatness wan
valorously won.
Vermont proudly says: "This hero Is
mlno!"
And thrills the whole length of her
Green Mountain splno
tVhcno'r she. recalls that seaman-like
stunt
Which pushed her then commodore
clear to the front.
rorhnps you recall, I am quite, sure you
do,
(Since most of us here arc past twenty-two)
That memorable day In the year ninety-
eight
IWhon Dowoy took part In that Spanish
May fete.
Spectacular? Yes, though no May-pole
was there
The dancing was sprightly, with confet
ti In air:
The firoworks were brilliant, so up to tho
mark
That Montljo muttered: '"TIs the dcuco
of a lark!
If these yankee dogs do just as they
please,
They'll prove far too nimble for Span
ish Grandees:
Tlioy act as ,lf this were their Fourth of
July.
Their aim Is so sure T begin to feel shy.
The nerve of that commodore! It this
thing keeps on
I'll report to Ills Majesty ere the morn
ing be gone."
You see to his mind It was growing quite
plain
That cheap yankee sailors were licking
old Spain.
H. C. HIT DOLES OF BREAD

eighteen poor families of Trinity par
ish used to be provided for In the weekly
Leake "dole or bread" distributed from
tho parish house of St. Luke's chapel. To
day the high cost of living allows for tho
charity to only 10. At Ihni same, time.
prosperity has reached out Into moro
homes, and there Is less need for It. Only
six f-hahblly dressed little hoys and girls
children of the parish's "most dcf-crvlnff
poor," asked for It last Saturday.
March saw tin ilnlo's "wheaten loaves'
distributed 0.6.33 consecutive weeks in tho
128 years of its existence. It was provided
tor in John Leake's will of colonial days
hour to six loaves go to each family.
Mrs. Margaret J. Tunstall. parish vis
Itor, distributed tho Leake dole. She has
been doing It for 15 years. She received
ine children. Inquired the number fcf
mouths to b fod In each family and
wrapped the bread up. St. Luke's Chan
el parish houso has been the scene of
the dole for three or four years now,
Hetoro that it was given at St. John's
chapel. Originally Its ljome was Trinity
Church, where the poor had lo apply for
u ni ine anar niter the Sunday service,
John Leake, a wealthy New Yorker, of
Revolutionary days, provided for the dole,
which the Rncyclopedla Brltannlca calls
the "best known dole ln the United
Stales." A portion of his will said:
"I hereby give id bequeath to the
rector and vestrymen of Trinity parish,
New York city. N. V.. 1.000 pounds, put
out at interest, to be laid out ln the an

By the decisive vote of 103 to 33 ine
convention crushed a "radical" declara
tion of principles submitted by the
delegation from Illinois, which pro
vided for the "dictatorship of tho
proletariat" and limitation nf citizen
ship throughout the United States.
Bitterness of Invectlvo marked tho
day by long debate between the "con
servative" forces of Morris Hlllqult of
New York and tho "radicals" led by
J. Louis Kngdahl of Chicago.
You are afraid of tho dictatorship
of tho proletariat," shouted Engdahl
in closing tho debate on tho Illinois
measure. "Yot you have tho dictator
ship of Palmer, Wilson and Burleson,
You can't fool anybody by phrases, nor
can you fool anybody with the decora
tions of this convention hall, the
American flag, the flag of Wall Street
nnd 'ho dictatorship of Wilson."
There Is only one road to victory,
Thero Is only one flag, the red flag of
International socialism. We can do noth
Ing b"tter than. ally ourselves with our
comrades In Bussla, Italy nnd every
where, whore they believe In International
socialism.
James O'Neil of Brooklyn, arguing for
the victorious Hlllqult "conservative"
platform, said:
"I don't like tho word dictatorship. Let
II go throughout the country fiat you
favor a dictatorship of the proletariat
nnd you cease lo be a political party.
Introduce such a resolution and you
must do your work under giound, or you
will he driven under by Sweet at Albany

excicise such a dictatorship, but that
would not excuse us,
"Bourgeois democtacy with all Its shams
and Illusions permits in normal times
by an honest and fair discussion. To
espouse the dictatorship progiam would
turn every such democracy into an ahso
lute autocracy."
Discussion of the Hlllqult "declaration
of principles" and "platform" program
will come up again to-morrow, and tho
Illinois delegation already 'has served
notice It Intends to tight for Incorpora

rejected by the convention to-day
When the Hlllqult program Is Intro
