General Villa received me very cordially and signified his intention of extending leniency to Spaniards in future. He is now operating against Federals towards Ojinaga and Torreón. While I was there a very important conference was held between Villa and two Carranza emissaries which was communicated to me. Villa will be in Juárez on twenty-eighth.
