Flat Denial to Be Given. one portion of the it was asserted that Scott had assured General Obregon and General Trevino that no addi- tional farces would be sent into Mex- ico in pursuit of raiders who attacked Glenn Springs and Bouquillas. This will be flatly denied by the American note, which will assert that General Scott made no such promise. Gen- eral Scott should have made no such assurance, when both he and General | Funston were aware of the dispatch of the Sibley-Langhorne expedition. The American reply will make it clear to the Carranza authorities that this government is keenly disappoint- ed over the failure of the hopes that were based an the verbal promises of Genera] Obregon for troop mov ments intended to demonstrate abil- ity by the Carranza authorities to control the situation, pointing out that disorders have increased, that demonstrations have openly been made against Americans and the American consulate in Chihuahua City, either with the approval of the Carranza authorities or thraugh lack of ability by them to control the situ- ation; and that it is impossible under such conditions to withdraw the American expeditionary force, whose presence in its present strategic posi- tion in Mexico is deemed necessary for the protection of the border. It is fully recognized in official circles that the sharp and determined character of President Wilsan's an- swer to Carranza may lead to a most scrious crisis in the relations between this country and the de facto govern- ment, and may force a break in rela- tions, For this reason American con- sular officers, well as foreign con- suls who are looking after American interests in Mexico, are being in- structed to repeat the warnings given some months aga for Americans to leave Mexico, ! Reports to this government indi- cate that the Carranza government is erowing weaker steadily and that the authorities of the de facto govern- ment in various_sections of northern Mexico appear either unwilling or unable to stem the tide of the anti- fcreign sentiment that has been propagated on the basis of the pres- ence of American troaps in Mexico. Some of the reports indicate that the spread of anti-foreign sentiment in Mexico may ‘threaten the mainten- ance of the Carranza government and that for this reason the Carranza government has not dared deal with the situation with a firm hand. Abandon Tdea of Commission. It became known. yesterday that some officials of the administration suspect that a definite propaganda is being carried on in Mexico for the propagation of anti-American senti- ment, but they were silent regarding details and refused to disclose the ccurse of the suspected propaganda. It is known that before the out- break of anti-Americanism compli- cated further the framing of a reply to the Carranza note officials were considering a proposal that an inter- pational commission be formed ta dis- cuss all matters between the two countries. The treaty of 1848, re- ferred to in the Carranza note, pro- vides for such a commission. With the new and alarming developments beyond the border, however, there seems little possibility that such a course will be followed In note Carranza FIFTEEN DAYS IN JAIL FOR AUTOIST Andrew Carlson of New York Is Also Fined $5 and Costs—Tries To Run Away With Policeman. Andrew Carlson of New York, who lives in Farmington during the sum- mer months, was arraigned Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning on charges of in- toxication and driving an automobile under the influence of liquor. He entered a plea of guilty and was fined $5 on the first count and sent to jail for fifteen days on the second. Carlson was arrested A4t 12:30 this morning on West Main street by Supernumerary Officer Horace V. Mercure and he led that officer a merry chase before he was finally lodged behind the bars. Officer Mercure testified that he heard shout- ing on West Main street and on ir vestigating found Carlson driving his car from one side of the street to the other. The man was drunk so he placed him under arrest, after permit- ting his passengers to leave. The officer had no sooner hopped onto the running board than Carlson threw o1 the speed and raced down Lincoln street. As they turned the corner Officer Mercure rapped on a telegraph pole for assistance and Supernumer- ary Officer Thomas Dolan came out. He saw that Carlson was drunk and so testified, Finally Carlson was induced to drive down West Main street and when near the National Bank Officer Mercure ordered him to turn to the Jeft and go to the police station. Tn- sgead, Carlson turned to the right and went down Church street, stopping in front of Longley's restaurant. There he was dragged from the machine, but tried to escape.

But Senator James, who a man of girth and vigor, came well through the ordeal and earned much praise for his abilities as a presiding officer- selected for per- Sage-Allen & Co.’s Big June Sale.

Victory® for the suffragists in the democratic national convention today appeared so close that “General” Up- degraff’s well laid plans to keep silent her 8,000 “marchers,” in the walkless, sum- | talkless “Golden Lane” demonstration appeared likely to be shattered. The participants had promised their “gen- eral” faithfully that during two hours of the Wdisplay they would not utter a sound, and then, in the closi hours of preparation, a tentative d of a suffrage platform plank tendered them by democratic leaders put them in a shouting mood. The plank which the suffragists have been fight- ing It would put the party on record as favoring passage of a con- stitutional amendment to enfranchise women. The plank as drafted refers to the large number of voting women in the twelve enfranchised states, one of the principal arguments the women have becn using, regarding their strength. Members of the national Woman Suffr association were pected to put th unqualified proval on the plank today and repre- sentatives of the Woman’s Party will turn attention to congress and try to force the Susan B.
