Note Is Handec Representath Goverment of the United S the Position of Sett Maintain Its N Washington, June 20.?The Ameri- j can note handed to Eliso Arredondo, the Mexican ambassador designate this morning fiatlv rejects Carranza's demand for the withdrawal of the American troops from Mexico. It rebukes the Carranza government for the discourteous tone and j temper of the last communication. It | is about six thousand words long. The long continued outrages against Americans and their property both in Mexico and on American soil is reviewed, and warning is given that troops will be kept in Mexico until the defacto government performs the duty which the United States has not sought of pursuing j the bandits who ought to be arrest- j ed and punished by the Mexican gov- j 1*- /->rwr>/-> 1 > ?,/?aO irltTl Q Cf51 tP- I Ci iiiliClIC, 11 V.UUVIUUVO nivu v% ^ w.-^ < ment if the defacto government con- I tinues to ignore this obligation and i carries out its threat to defend its1 territory by an appeal to arms j against American troops, ihe gravest | consequences follow. "While this government would j deeply regret such a result," says the | note, "it cannot recede from its set- i tied determination to maintain its national rights and to perform its full duty in preventing further invasions of territory of the United States and in removing the peril which; Americans along the international boundary have borne so long with patience and forbearance." The note is signed by Lansing and directed to the Carranza foreign minister, at the outset refers to the Mex ican note of iMay 22 expressing "the surprise and regret, which has been caused this government iby the discourteous tone' and temper of this last communication of the defacto government of Mexico." The progress of the revolution in Mexico is viewed with deep concern and increasing j disappointment by the United l?tate~ government; for th: ee years the. "I"" Vioc hoon trim with pfvil vuauu j uuo w w* *4 < - strife, the lives of Americans and other aliens have been sacrificed, vast properties developed by American capital and enterprise have been destroyed or rendered non-productive and bandits permitted to roam at f will through teritory contiguous to ! the United States and to seize, without punishment or without effective attempt at punishment, the property cf Americans, while the lives of citizens of the United States who ventured to remain on Mexican territory or to return there to protect their interests have been taken and in some cases barbarously taken, and i ? ? -? * /nam ft n ! tne muraerers nave uenuer uccu apprehended or brought to justice. It would be difficult to find in the annals of the history of Mexico conditions more deplorable than those which have existed there during these recent years of ci'.il strife." Tedious to Recount. Washington, June 20.?The noto says it would be tedious to recount "instance after instance, outrage af-! ter outrage, atrocity after atrocity to illustrate the true nature and extent of the widespread conditions of law lessness and violence which have prevailed," and declares that during the past nine months the frontier along the lower Rio Grande has been in a state of constant apprehension and turmoil because of frequent bandit incursions into American territory. American properly was destroyed and citizens were sometimes carried across the boundary, garrisons were attacked at night, soldiers killed and equipment stolen and trains were "wrecked and plundered. The attacks cn Brownsville, Red House ferry, the Progreso postofiice and Las Peladas, during September last were typical. ]n these the "Carranzistas adherents and even Carranzistas soldiers took part in the looting, burning and killing." Representations were made to Carranza requesting him emphatically to stop these acts in the j *-- 1?

So far has the indifference of the i defacto government to these attrocities gone that some of these leaders as 1 am advised ha.e received not . only protection from the government but encouragement and aid as well." The note then recounts the depredations against Americans in Mexico including "the Santa Yesbel massacre, and says as far as known only one bandit personally connected with the massacre was brought to justice despite promises.

Despite protests Villa j* gradually neared the border until on March 9 he attacked Columbus. On Villa's retreat south he passed within ] sight of Casas Grandes but no effort ( was made by the Carranza troops to stop him. ( Only Recourse. < "Washington, June 20.?In the face of these depredations the "perpetrators of which Carranza was unable to possibly considered it inadvisable to 11 apprehend and punish" the United j < States had no recourse other than to j emnlov force to disperse the bands j of outlaws systematically raiding across the boundary. It then recounts 1 how the troops drove the foandits < back across the border pursuing] them to Parral where the pursuit | was halted by the hostilitity of Mexicans" presumed loya. to the defacto 1 government." The troops crossed the border ] without permission because immediate action was necessary. (Subsequently it was shown Carranza would not have entered an agreement providing an effective plan to cap-j" ture and destroy the Villa bands. | While the American troops were i moving south Carranza gave more at- I * tention to the fom and nature or the < nqrreerp .nt than to attain- i ing the practical object. The promise of Genera! Obregon to dispose his , troops so as to stop the raids was never carried out. The bandits were I' not vigorously pursued. j5 It is denied that a promise was!] given that no more American troops | should cross. The Glenn Springs raid is then recalled. The American troops went 6S miles into Mexico without encountering the Carranza troops. It was clear to Obregon that if the < 'v exican government did not taxe im-ij mediate steps to prevent another in- j ] vasion by these maurauders (de la j Hosa and Pedro Vino) who were fre- j qently seen Jn the company of the j 'Carranza General Naffarette and < in Tamaulipas the United States ( would find another punitivfe expedi- ( + ;nr, oimiiop tr\ thot in Ghihuahua liUli OIAUiitii VW V?MV , necessary. The charges that the ( American press is agitating intervention was hindering the defacto government is met with a charge that ( the Mexican press is more active in fomenting trouble. * The censorship power of the Mexi- < can government makes it impossible < for Oarranza to avoid responsibility for its utterances. The issue of Carranza's appear of March 12, appealing to Mexicans to prepare and inti- < mating war with the United States is j imminent evidence of the attitude of . the defacto government toward the newspapers. The passage of war material to the defacto government was stopped 'because of a failure to run ' down the bandits. iNone will be al- < lowed to cross the border so long as : hostility is shown the American troops." A denial is made that outlaws were sheltered and aided in the United |( States. j f mm 11 1 ANNOUNCEMENTS. t FOR CONGRESS I am a candidate for congress from the Third congressional district, sud- j >- - ? i ? < i.i t~\ *; ? i jeci 10 me ruies 01 me jL?eiuu<jiau~ ( primary. ] A.
