He also denied that there had been any meeting between the Ger- man minister and Carranza in Quer- etaro. Herr von Eckhardt, the German minister. to Mexico, said: “I don't know anything about the matter. I have not made such a pro posal to the Mexican government. | must refer you to Washington for in-’ formation.” The Japanese minister, Otha Tame- l»rlcki‘ was astonished ‘when informed about the Zimmermann note. He said no proposition had been made to him by the de facto government for the formation of such an alliance, and he laughed when asked if he believed Ja. pan would abandon England and her other allies to join Germany. At the Austrian legation the opin- | lon was expressed that the news of the note was incorrect and amounted to nothing more than press jingoism. | The general bellef here is that the note is not genuine. Mexico has not obtained munitions from Japan. Mexico City, March 2.—Henry -P. Fletcher, .the American ambassador . | teft yesterday with Foreign Secrétary Aguilar for Guadalajara, where Gen- eral Carranza now is. The trip was hurriedly arranged and kept secret until the party was well on the way. It peems to be the general opinion among well-informed public men here that the proposal outlined in the Zim- | mermann note“probably has not been | definitely presented to General Car- | ranza by Minister von Eckhardt, al- though this is only a surmise on their part. Denial From Mexican Embassy. . Washington, March 2.—Ramon De’ Negri, Charge d'Affaires of the Mex- | ican embassy issued a formal state- ment denying that the Carranze gov- l ernment had been in any way im- plicated in the German plot disclosed ) through the pubuufl'n of the Zim- mermann note. The statement from the Mexican Charge reads: “As Charge d’Affaires of the Mex- ican embassy, I desire to deny the « participation of my government in the | plot reported in the morning papers. T expett the' official denial of my gov- ernment will be made in the reply to the report vfhlch I have tory-raed 1 to. belleve that ‘the German ‘pro was entertained by the Mexican de' facto government, and, so far as Is knbwp, theré is no evidence to. show that that government actually re- ceived it, although the American au’ thorities believe it did reach the Ger- ‘man minister at Mexico City. The incident will have no effect on the friendly relations now existing be- tween the United States and the Car- ranza government. It is generally bglieved that the publication of the German proposal will have a highly beneficial result on the relatjons between the United States and . Mexico, in that it will force Mexico to take a:firm stand in her intention to mairtain her friend- ship with the United States. FRENCH TURN T0 AFRIGAN MARKETS Beginning to Realize Worth of ~ Products in Colonies Paris, March 2.—Frenchmen who believe in developing the home market as the best means of promoting an economic recovery after ‘the war are calling for a ‘“grand master” of raw materials, or something like the Imperial office for the cconomic transition period in Germany. A competent man, with sufficient legal authority and with full control of the utilization of the natural resources of France, -they think, would accomplish in the res- toration of general industries a work /| comparable to what Albert Thomas, You can be happy-footed in a mo- ‘ment.

The French colonies, it is pointed out, would be a rich field for the ef- forts of such a department. Algeria has petroleum, copper and zinc. Other North African colonies have rich de- posits of copper, zinc and antimony while the Southern Sahara, Dahomey and Congo are rich in vegetable oils and seeds for the manufacture of vegetable fats. Of this production Germany bought and exported seven- ty-five per cent. before the war. Great Britain is profiting from the blockade and from the poverty of the French merchant marine to dis- place Germany in this African trade, buying up allogeneous products of the French colonies for the time being. The danger of being distanced by Great Britain in the utilization of the products of their colonies is not over- looked by Frenchmen who, after 25 years of comparative neglect, realize now what they lost by too little at- tention to the resources of the col- onies.
