Carranza Expected to
Retake Mexican Capital
By Associated Press
Galveston, Texas, May 19.—A reli
able statement of some of Carranza's
military plans coming from Carranza
himself was given out here to-day by
an American who has just returned
from Vera Cruz. Reports are frequent
In Vera Cruz that General Carranza
Intends soon to remove his camp to
Puebla, then to retake Mexico City
and there permanently establish the
constitutional government.
•General Carranza himself frankly
says he has no Immediate intention of
returning to Mexico City notwith
standing the effect the return might
have among other nations. Carranza's
reasons for this, he says, are:
"That the people of Mexico City are
antagonistic to him; that the city
would require a large garrison which
necessarily would take thousands of
his soldiers from active field work;
that Mexico City has no military ad
vantage: that at Vera Cruz supplies
are available from foreign countries
and communication with the outside
world cannot be interrupted.
General Carranza rarely appears in
public. Fortified in a lighthouse 300
feet from the bay and within sight of
the American cruiser and gunboat
usually lying off the harbor, the first
chief remains secluded with his cabi
net members. Many persons here
comment on this apparent aloofness as
being in marked contrast to the cus
tom of former President Madero of
giving audiences to his followers.
Impeachment Petitions
Against Judge Baldridge
Petitions praying for the impeach
ment of Judge Thomas J. Baldridge,
of Blair county, were presented to
the House of Representatives to-day
on behalf of Edward J. Maher. of Al
toona, by Representative Maurer,
Berks. The petitions were referred
to the judiciary general committee,
but owing to the fact that the Legis
lature adjourns to-morrow any action
this year is improbable, according to
Chairman W. H. Wilson.
The petition contains a dozen
charges, being based largely upon
statements made before the Federal
Industrial Relations Commission at
Washington some days ago. Tt is also
charged that the election of the judge
was favored by a "secret" committee
which collected a large campaign
fund to which liquor license holders
contributed. Criticism of various acts
of the judge is also made.
Explosion of Gas Starts
Fire in West End House
With a detonation that rocked the
house and rattled window panes for a
square, a gas pipe in the cellar of 024
Curtln street, exploded this afternoon,
setting fire to the building.
William Heller, a railroader, moved
his household goods into the house
tills morning. Unaware that the ga*
liad alreudv been turned oil he took
a lighted candle and went to the cellar
to make connections. He set the can
dle down and went up the stairs for
tools. The man had barely reached
the top when the explosion occurred.
He was throw n on his face but escaped
uninjured. A Are alarm was turned in
from box 40. and the flames were ex
tinguished with little damage.
CHURCH TO PROTEST OFFER
Messiah Lutheran Congregation Op
posed to Sale of Site for $50,0(10
At a meeting this evening of the
congregation of Messiah Lutheran
Church the offer made to City Council
yesterday of the present site of the
church will be discussed.
In a letter to Council ex-Rabbi Sam
uel Friedman suggested that the city
buy the church property at Sixth and
Forster streets as a possihle site for a
firehouse In the event that the Mount
Vernon truckhouse is purchased by the
State in the extension of the Capitol
Park zone. The letter stated that the
congregation recently agreed upon
$60,000 as a price, but the former rabbi
said he believed that the city could
purchase the ground for $60,000. Iti
concluding his letter Mr. Friedman
urged Council not to neglect "this
golden opportunity."
Members of the church, however,
declare they will not be willing to sell
the site for the amount specified and
It is understood that a formal protest
will be.framed to-night.
