These may be summarized as follows: United States American troops t wilt not be withdrawn from Mexico until such a time ns bandit operations have been terminated and American llvs on American soil arc safe from marauding Mexicans. Mexico Tho American troons must immediately he withdrawn becauso their continued presence In Mexico threatens to lead to a popular revolt that V.-IH upset all the work of pacifi cation that the de facto government of Mexico has accomplished. On tho fa.-e of these dcmamlB the coun tries, appear to lie as far apart as the two poles but tho, negotiations are expected to develop this: Compromise American troops will advance no farther southward In Mexico, but will remain for a certain, time, say thirty or sixty days, while tho Mexican authorities continue the hunt for Francisco Villa. The United States troops will co-operate In these operations but will avoid Mexican towns and In every posslblo way keep from arousing antagonism among tho Mexican natives. OlftttXION FHIKNDLY.

On the Mexican side of the Rio Grande todar American? were greeted with cordiality In marked contrast to the at tltudo In Juarez, before Obregon arrived. The Mexicans (airly radiated geniality and optimism, apparenufif expecting that the American GovernriiUnt would Imme diately yield to the demands as voiced by the Mexican army. There was less optimism In El Paso, Wiit nevertheless there prevailed among the. American pfflcers accompanying Gen era I Scott the hope that a satisfactory set tlement of the situation, might ba reached. CALL ON OBREGON.

British troops In the district northwest of tho Four Courts. In Dublin, are pro ceeding In a methodical' way to clear tho buildings of sniper, but, In the words of Field Marshal Frnech, "the clearance of these snipers Is a matter of time." tTho worst nrfs In the, Irish capital, Field Marshal French says, occurred In the district around Sackvllle street, where tho righting was very severe on Thursday. Fled Marshal French's official report concludes: lit the other parts of Ireland the principal ceritrcs of disturbances are In County Clahvay nnd In Ennlscorthy.

LAUKINITES JOIN REVOLT, t In their operations In Dublin, the Sinn Filners ero reinforced by radical Social-' 1st followers of James Larkln, tho well known labor leader. Many women, some of them In green uniforms fought side by side with the rebels In th4- trenches In St. Stephen's Green. It Is believed that some of these women were kilted. It Is known that some wcro wounded. The exact numbor of dead may never be known, for bodies of rebels were re mbved at night by sympathizers nnd se cretly burled, It has been Just flvo days since the first shot In the revolt was fired on Monday, but already the rebellion has spent Its force nnd, tiro white and greon flag with Its harp (thd flag of the Irish Republic) has been lorn from practically alt the buildings which tho rebels had occupied, WIMBORNES NARROW ESCAPE. It Is now learned that Lord Wlmborne, the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, had a narrow escape from death during the hofght of tho fighting. It Is not known whether an attempt was made to as sasstnnto him or whether his adventure befell him at the time the rebels made their attack upon his residence.

Four Courts, St. Stephen's Orecn, Trinity College nnd the fnshlonnblo Shclbourno lintel. Telegrnph wires were cut arid a detach ment broke Into tho telephone exchange and smashed all tho Instruments. Along Sackvlllc street the rebels broke Into stores, carrying tho counters nnd other articles Into tho streets for the erection of barricades. During the afternoon and night of Monday the post office changed hands wevcral times. Tho rebels were well armed, although their weapons were of various, patterns. It was regarded as re markable that all their guns were pro vided with bayonets. It was part of the plan to seize the barracks, hut the rebels wero easily frus trated In this attempt. When the British forces began to rain shcllflro ngalnst Liberty Hall, the head quarters of tho rebels, many people be came terror-stricken and fled from the city. The capture of the Dublin postofflce Is thus described: Just upon the stroke of noon, on Monday, about 100 young men, wear ing bandoliers and soft hats with bands of green ribbon, and all armed with rifles bearing bayonets, dashed into the postal building and brusquely ordered all the officials nnd clerks to leaved Thero were about 300 em ployes at work" at the time. Postal officials tried to reason with the rebels, hut they brandished their bayonet'd rifles In such dangerous fashion that discretion was deemed tho better pait of valor. As the pui.tnl employes fled, the rebels be gan turning the building Into a block house, while n body went to the roof and began firing Into the street at constables and soldiers.

Some of the soldiers that weie rushed to Dublin from England were seasoned veterans who had campaigned ngalnst the Germans In France. They declare that the Sinn Kcinera put up a fight of the most desperate character and that many of them who could have saved their Uvea by surrendering refused to do so. It Is reported from botli Dublin and Cork that cooler heads among the Sinn Felners wanted to postpone the uprising. but that they were overborne by the rporo fiery leaders, who had Just learned of the capture of Sir Roger Casement by the British. The Sinn Felners are said to resent angrily the charge that the rebellion was fostered and financed by Germans. They claim it Is a purely Irish movement. Demands for the resignation of Au gustine Blrrell. Secretary of Ireland, and Lord Wlmbourne will be made In Par liament next week. King George has been deeply moved by the revolt.

But she Is confident, lnuldtntally. tho Judge Is aUo looking forward with unusual Interest,. If Judges agree to stand for such tests many members of the bench are wonder ing where It will all end. Now they aro obliged to pass on the morals of enndid movl. nature dances, various kinds of food, and there Is every Indication that they will bo asked to visit barber shops to test the concoctions which aro doused on the human face by tantalizing ton sorinllsts who endeavor to talk human beings Into unconsciousness while they reduce pocketbooks. And there aro rumors that some mani curists uso liquids which poison tho nails.
