Show H REVOLUTION IS BEING PLANNED H ; Salt Lake, Jan. 4. Revolutionary H strife in Mexico is not at an end, and H within thirteen days Obregon, com- H! mander of the Carranza forces in the JPPJH, north, will begin a gigantic movement j to overthrow Carranza. This is the 1 belief of officers of the vanquished 1 Villa forces, who have taken refuge in Arizona, according to James D. Barrv, j an attorney of the Nogales, Ariz., wlio H arrlced In Salt Lake yesterday, and H who will spend several days here be- 1 fore his return. He is a guest at the IIIH Hotel Utah. m These refugee Villistas also express JPPH I the opinion, say3 Mr. Barry, that Ob- H regon will first visit Mexico City in an H , effort to induce Gonzales, command- ijijH t er of Carranza's southern forces, to Join In the revolution, but if he fails in this, they declare Obregon will sev- . er relations with Carranza and pro- i ceed alone. H Com'ng to a Head. H "That a new revolution' would be W afoot before fifteen days had elapsed was told me by a former colonel of JPPB Villa's army, said Mr. Barry. "I am H not at liberty to give his name, but Jpppi he told me that, the movement had !1H1111" already been outlined and that the first blow would probably be dealt in Chihuahua. He predicted that at the end of six months Obregon will have IIK accomplished the downfall of the Car ranza government." Carranza is quite unpopular among mk Americans along the border, acord- ffH Jng to Mr. Barry, and the administra- ' tion has been severely criticized for H its action in extending recognition to JpM his government He also states that H while many persons are strongly in j fator of intervention others declare Ht tQe result of such action would not IHHM! Justify the cost in life and money. Obregon is Popular. Obregon is, perhaps, the most popu-!Iar popu-!Iar leader in Mexico, says Mr. Barry, who describes him as an excellent soldier, with considerable administrative administra-tive ability. He says Obregon is of the higher type of Mexican, that his iiM ideas are decidedly American, that he H speaoks English fairly well and that H, whenever he has taken a city, instead H ' of having tried to deal out revenge H I he has treated the people squarely PPK and has attempted to encourage ln- H dustry and thrift. HIH'i f, "Y11 has annonced that he has pppjj fired his last shot and he is probably m somewhere in Chihuahua," said Mr. 1 Barry. "He has instructed hiB gener- als to surrender under the best terras H'l they can get. As soon as he can he H will probably leave Mexico and find ,j refuge in some other county." H ! Ir- Barry is an eye-witness of the H J recent battle at Sonora, just across H ; the line from Nogales, and he asserts ppJB i that forty-one Mexicans and Yaquis H were killed by American troops after i they had fired across the line He PJH says he never saw such a Jubilant ppHj : band of Americans in his life as were ppH ! the people of Nogales when the TJnit- PPH'j ed States soldiers opened fire on the iiH ; Mexicans.
