MEXICO CITY. Jan, 29.-—Gen. Ai-

‘ the head of his troops. entered Mexico
. pity shortly Iai'ter 3 o’clock yesterday
afternoon

At. first he met with little or no re
sistance, but when the National Pai-
sllots from
iCathedral roof and other buildings
nearby. drew ilre from the soldiers.
After the fighting was over. a corres-
pondent counted three persons lying
dead in the plans.

The rear guard of the Zapstistas
left the city as General Obregon en
tei'ed, holding up street cars at the
point of rifles in order to commandeer
them for transport as far as the sub
urbs.

All commercial houses and banks
were closed, but aside train shooting on
the main plum-the entry of the Car-
ranza forces caused no disturbances.

tional Palace. General Ob rogers,

lished headquarters.

The capital today is again In the

John W.-§culiey, 0! South Norwslk.
national president of the United Hat-
tors cl North America. said positively.
today that the rumor in circulation in
.this city for several days. in relation
to the proposed method of meeting
the Judgment in the Loewe case by
permitting the foreclosure of property.
but protecting the individual detenti-
ants by redeeming the real estate. or
making a money payment, as might be
desired, was without loundation.

Articles recently published stated
specifically that the plan of paying the
Judgment there outlined had reached:
this city only as a. rumor and, while'
being much discussed. and given con
A sidera-ble credence by some, lacked of

 

tlclsl confirmation. It was printed;
only for what it was worth, as an in-If
terestlng story that was being widely:
discussed. I

Mr. Sculley said today in a tele-'
phone message from New York thati
the story had been brought to his at- A
tention and that he desired it said
that he had absolutely no knowledge
,of such a plan: He said also that as
yet no plan for paying the Judgment
had been srrangeed, either by the
United Hatters. or, so far as he knew:
by the American Federation of Labor.‘

This statement «b1 the executive
head of the United Hatters undoubt- ‘
edly will set at rest the rumors in re A
gard to an agreement in regard to
the method of meeting the judgment.
which have been current in this city
during the past. few days. One or two
new rumors made their appearance to-
day. but the statement by Mr. Sculley
disposes of them. as it does of the
others. ,

The unusual currency of such stor
ion is a- nemia-[result of'lbé ’wide
spread.intersst in the case, which is:
attracting attention throughout thr
country. in the majority of cases, it
is «believed, stories , concerning the.
judgment originate outside of Dan
bury and reach here through various
sources .

The rumor in regard to the iorecios.f
urea attiIcted more attention than!
most stories of the kind because of the
several interesting points of hw in— I
volved, and consequently aroused ln-.
terest among lawyers, by reason of in-
quiries as to the manner in which the
matter cauld be accomplished.

Russia has answered the new Anette-German offen—
sivc movement in Hiingary and Bukowina with a sudden
resumption of'Itlic attack on the Germans upon their ()IwIn
territory. The Russian army in East Prussia again is at—
tempting to penetrate the German lines and an official
report from l’ctrograd today indicates that heavy fight— '
ing is in progress. In two sections of thc‘front, it is
statctl. the Germans wcrc defeated and driven back. For
several months there has Iiccn Iittlc changc in East I’rlis-
sin, thi- Russians having,r been haltcd after penetrating
,iicariy thirty miles beyond the Hermit border.

To the south the new Anette-German plan of cam—
paign is dcvioping rapidly. The Austrian army staff all-
nonnces that the Russians who invaded Northern Hungary
have been defeated and ion cd to retreat. . Pctrograd
military experts expect that main attack will- bc ‘dc—
liverc'd on the extreme Russian right wmg, in Western
BukoWina, a supposition which is supported by the con-
ccntration of Austrian and German troops in Hungary.

Simultaneously with the stiffening of the Austro—
German attack the Turks have brought up reinforce—
ments in the Trans- Caucasian region, and are again on
the offensive. Russian and Turkish reports are contra-
dictory, but it is apparent that severe fighting.' is in prog—
ress.

In the west there is less activity. T he furious her—
man assaults of the last fcw days seem to havc‘ cfl'cctctl
no important results. I

offensive operations on the part of the Turks in the Can-
casns, apparently timed so as to force Russians to send-
mlore troops into this field. the Austro- IGcrmall activities
in Gaiicia and the Carpathians continue to dominate the
military situation.

. Forces of thc Tcuton AIIics are being pushed farther
to the south and strung out nearer t0 the Romanian fron—
tier in order to meet any sudden movement over the
passes from that country. The recent fighting in the Car-I
Ipathians has brought no decisive engagement both the- -. : it
Austrians and the Russians claiming local successes. It I
is believed in London, however, that thc .Istruggic may
soon be cXpectch to enter upon critical stages both in - . v
the east and in the west. British military‘ohscrvcrs have
cxpfesSed the opiilion that Germany is still keeping a pre—
ponderancc of her forces in the west, where the Allies
should c\pcct another great offensive movement.
