S. , Correspondent.) _ EL PASO, Tex., July 1%.-Official Staff under General Trevino at Chi- huahua City had evacuated that place 'before the advance of a large Villa lorce was issued today in Juarez. The denial was generally accepted as true, though the reports of Chihua- hua's evacuation had been so strong that General Bell, commander at Fort Bliss, had forwarded them to Wash- ington. That Chihuahua will again fall in- to Vila's power is not considered im- possibles hers, however. General Tre vino's position was always far from secure. Chikuahua City is a hot bed of (Villa sentiment. It was where Villa shone as a paternal bandit. Thousands in Chihuahua City look sd upon the prospect of Villa's return as eagetly as a race track fan scans favorable turf news. The release of the Carrizal prison zthe Villista propagandists a leeway to ipry soldiers and civilians away from itheir loosely cemented loyalty to Car- granza. © From all present indications, Villa is satisfied to remain for the present comparatively quiet forming his army and reorganizing it into working suits. His recruits are being gained without {great effort. Three trains are held at Columbus because it is impossible to force them through the muddy road.

Among the experts invited to attend the conference were Dr. Sfimon Flex. ner of Rockefeller Institute, Dr. L. Em- mett Holt, specialist in children's dis- eases, Dr. John McCorkle, the noted diagnostician. and Dr. A. H. Doty, for- mer health officer of the port. The advisability of calling upon the National Red Cross for assistance was one of the main questions slated for discussion at the conference. The mayor also wished to receive sugges- tions from the exports as to the best method of finding \carriers\ of the disease. Brooklyn continues to report the largest number of deaths and new cases, but a new center of the disease has been found in an apartment house district in Manhattan and it is feared that the Crilemic will now gain streéeagth in the latter borough. The small number of cases in Manhattan has previously been attributed to the widespread‘usa of pasteurized milk in the congested East Side section. ‘ TORRENTIAL RAIN IN McALLEN, TEXAS M'ALLEN, Texas, July 12%.-The torrid heat has afflicted the New York troops since their arrival on the bor- der was broken today by a torrential rain storm, but their discomfort only RESIGNATION ® | __ ACCEPTED BY WILSON WASHINGTON, July 12.-President Wilson this afternoon accepted the resignation of Governor George W.
