Advices to the war department in-

at the department that there is con-

American soldiers and the Carranzis-

EL PASO, Texas, April 11.—More
than $500,000 belonging to the late
General Urbani is reported to have
been buried on the ranch owned by
the former Villista leader about 150
miles northeast of Durango City. The
money comprised silver pesos, much
of which is believed to have been
taken from Durango City, when that
place was looted by Villistas a year or
mere ago. At that time nine wagon-
loads of silver bullion, pesos and other
valuables were confiscated. As a re-
sult of a quarrel between Urban! and
Villa over a division of the spoils Ur-
bani was killed.

lived at my house in New York. I
know he is a friend of the United
States, and that it’is his hope to see
Mexico engaged in an entente with
this country for mutual advancement
and protection.
"As proof of his friendship for the
United States, Diaz refused an offer
of an enormous sum of money and all
the arms and ammunition necessary
if he would start a revolution in Mex-
ico. This offer came from Germany.
He believed that Germany's intentions
were hostile to the United States.
"On another occasion, while in New
York, Diaz was visited by Victoriano
Huerto. Huerta had with him $13,-

only on condition that Diaz remains

The feat of the aviators in making
such record time in their flight, army
officers said, indicated that they had
had opportunity to fly considerable
distances beyond the advanced cavalry
squadrons, and that they had failed
to locate Villa.
State department officials said re-
ports of Villa's death were not new,
but frequent. Villa may be now, they
said, in the state of Durango, rallying
his friends.

WASHINGTON, April 11.—Confi-
dential advices were received by a le-
gation of one of the European powers
, Tuesday indicating that the Dutch
steamer Tubantia was sunk by a mine
and not by a torpedo as first claimed.
Officials regard this news as highly
important, as it may influence thi.
government's course in settling the
submarine Issue with Germany.
The Tubantia was one of the cases
♦hat threatened to bring the United
States into conflict with Germany.
Three Americans were on board and
their lives jeopardised when the ves-
sel was sunk.
In the confidential diplomatic ad-
vices it was stated that the belief that
a mine caused the disaster was based
on the result of examination of the
Tubantia's hull by divers. The divers
were employed by the government. It
is believed here that an official an-
nouncement soon will be made by the
Dutch government to the effect that a
mine sank the Tubantia.
The submarine issue between this
country and Germany remained at a
standstill. President Wilson and his
cabinet had a two-hour session, but it
was later announced that no definite
decision was reached as to this gov-
ernment's course.
President Wilson still awaited the
note from the German government
This was handed to Ambassador Ge-
rard Tuesday. The administration is
also awaiting the British and French
evidence and affidavits of American
survivors which are due to arrive on
the St. Paul Thursday.
If the Sussex case is not shown to
be conclusive, the United States may
point to the sixty-five reported cases
of vessels destroyed by mines or tor-
pedoes since the new submarine cam-
paign was launched a month ago as
evidence that Germany has not lived
up to her pledges.
