MEXICAN TURMOIL
CARRANZA REPORTED CAPTURED. tfress Association—Bj Tfc!«graph—Copyright. WASHINGTON, May 19. The proposed appointment of General Villa as Chief of the M.exican Constabulary may result in the withholding of the United States's recognition of the new Mexican Government, because Villa is held responsible for the murder of Americans during the bandit raid on Columbus in 1916. A message received from Houston, Texas, states that General Carranza has been captured. Unconfirmed reports declare that General Obregon immediately forwarded passports, and ordered the exPresident to leave the country immediately.
