VILLA'S COURSE
NOT DECIDED

Qul. Fighting.
In Camp with General Villa, Bou
quillas, Chihuahua, Mexico, May 19.
IPeace and a return of'normal condi
tions in northern Mexico depend on
'what guarantees .leaders of the latest
IMexican revolution gave Francisco
Villa.
Villa at 'Ijs camp here told the As
soelated Press in ai exclusive inter
view his )lals for the future. Villa
is resting here with hIs personal band
of 8O men, awaIting a conference with
Gen. Pellias Calles, minister of war
fo' the revolutionists.
The conferilecv, Villa said, will de

on hiis trip to .\lexico City. Ile must
come to Villa. for Villa will not go to
Calles, Villa said.
Vila trusts Calles "more than any
other man" in the revolutionary move
lielt, he said, but his real attitude
has not been certain as hI has not been
,.in bec ause lorses; of the bandits are
kept constantly saddlel at night under
the watchful eyes of seitries, and that
all approaches to ithe cami are guard
ed by Villa's scout s. At a moment's
noticthe Ite hand is ready to mount and
flee or to 'light, acoording to the de
elsion of their leader.
In Camp With (eneiral Villa, Don
<iiillas, Clilhutalua, May 1.-Francls
co Villa will not be satisiled witl imere
guarantees of personal safety from the
newest revolution in Mexico, lie told
the Associated 'Press in an ex'lusive
interview at his camp in the moun
tains hire today. Villa will demand
guarantees concerning how the gov
erilnent is to be operated and befor'e
hie returns to private life "must see
the guarantees in actual operation,"
he said.
Mexieans of all classes, including
Viha himself and his men, agree that
until he is satisiled with the govern
if forces in Mexico a peace and a re
turn to normal conditions in Mexico
arc impossible.
Villa sent envoys to Chihuahua City
from here tonight headed by Alfonso
lomez to confei'r wit'h General 'Calles,
inister of wa' for the revoilutionists.
Calles was reported as intendnig to
confer personally with Villa.

If the heads of various governien

turn over large quantities 'of bullion
to the government. If, however, he
can not, approve them, he will retain
'the bullion to finance his own cam
'vaigns.
"The present revolution came about
over the same causes over which I
went to war with Carranza four years
ago," said Villa. "What the attitude
of the Unted States will be interests
me.most. The president of the United
States set up Carranza in what seemed
defilance of promises made me by
American agents. Now Carranza is
gone.
"Against Anmericans, individually or
collectively, I have no ill feeling, but
there i. bitterness toward your politi
elans. In the early days of the revolu
ioll I showed my friendliness. I gath
ered soie Americans together, arrang
ed a train for them and they were es

''hen when 1 was forced to send my
own wife as a fugi-tive to the United
States for her safety, the rings from
her fingers and the earrings from her
face were stripped from her without
consideration.'
Villa declared lie had not harmed an
American or other foreigners for many
months. le was asked whether he be
ileve(d foreign capital and the eitry
of foreigners to Mexico were necessary
for the development of his country.
"Absolutely," he answerd. " No
country can exist without the aid of
other countries. 10ach is dependent on
'the others. I have great respect and
adimiration for Americans and for their
attainments."
Villa apparently is waiting to see
what happens, but taking no chances
of surprise from any source-ready to
flee or repel attack as Villa indicates.
Villa, if lie does decide to take the
warpath again, will be the most seri
ous menace to the new government
getting under way In Mexico, all sides
agree.
There are no Americans in the camp
of Villa as captives held for ransom,
or otherwise, setting at rest a report
on the border an American mining
man was being held by Villa.
General Villa branded as "a quake",
a signed article appearing in some
newspap)er in the United States on
Sunday last, in which the writer told
of a .trip to Villa's camp at Ortiz ani
purported to quote him at lngth At

EASTERN GOVERNORI
REBUKES MADIDEN
Manchester, IN. II., .May 20,-The
statement of Represen tative Madde ;i of
'Illiniois, Republican, in the house hat
the Confederate soldiers were traitors
rvvoked a strong protest from Gov.
.lohn -11. lartlett, who spoke on the
matter before a large delegation of the
New Hlampshire Republican league in
this city this afternoon. Governor
Bartlett referred to Mr. Madden's out
bursts as wholly uncalled for, severely
Scorling the Illinois rep resentatIve for
his unfounde( rererence to Robert lI.
Loe and a similar remark made In tile
house at Washington last week. "The
entire people of the country should
rise In their condemnatIon of Repre
sentatIve Madden for this hot headed
out bursts,': declared the governor, "re
gardless of whether they belong to the
North or Southl or what their political
faith may be."
"Let us in New Hampshire be
among the first to notify the South
that we do not uphold or approve in
the least such utterances as made by
Represenative Madden. Never before
have I ever hard of the bravery of
'Robert 1,. Lee being questioned, and I
can not help but agree with Repre
sentat lve .Stedman of .North Carolina in
his declaration that. Mr. Madden i1.
'alone in a wilderness of is own prea
tion.'
"Such cases as this only serve te
revive the old feeling of hatred in
existence at -the time of the Confed
erate war, the feeling which we In the
North have tried so hard to overcome,
We do not, can not, and will not ap
prove of such allegations as made by
the Illinois representatives which arc
without doubt deplored by a vast ma
jority of clear thinking people in thc
country."
The distinguIshed audience whom
the governor addressed gave way tc
a OgreatbtLurst of aimnan at tl
