NEXT NOTE TO BE SHARP
WASHINGTON, June 14. presenta
tions sent by tho State Department to Gen
eral Carranza call his attention to the fact
that the body of one of the Mexican raiders
killed by American troopers following the
raid on Coleman's ranch, near Laredo', Tex.,
has been positively Identified as that of
Lieutenant Colonel Vlllareal, an officer In
Carranza's army.
The representations were sent as a sort
of prelude to the American .reply to (Car
ranja'a note demanding an Immediate with
drawal of the Pershing expedition from
Mexico. Carranza's attention was also
called to the fact that at the time of the
raid Vlllareal was" clothed In a Cafronzlsta
uniform and carried papers which clearly
established his .Identity.
The formal reply to tho Carranza note,
it was learned, will not bo forwarded to
Mexico City before Saturday night or Mon
day. Before It goes there will be further
conferences between the President and
Secretary Lansing. A tentative draft of the
noto has been completed. It Is extremely
long.
WILL NOT RECALL TnOOPS.
The note will reject Carranza's demand
for an Immediate withdrawal. It will con
tain a sharp rebuke for the language em
ployed In the Mexican communication and
especially for what otnclals here regard as
Carranza's Insult and gratuitous refer
ences to matters concerning the relations
existing between the United States and
third parties and his Insinuations that Pres
ident Wilson was keeping the troops In Mex
ico for political reasons.
At the same time It Is said authoritatively
that the American note will comply with
Carranza's demand for an outline of the
Intentions of this Government.
He will be reminded again that, at the
outset of the expedition Into Mexico.
President Wilson In a public statement
. proclaimed his purpose to withdraw tho
force Under General pershlng as soon ns
the bandits who attacked Columbus were
captured or dispersed and as rapidly as
the Carranza authorities obtained effective
control 6ver the situation.
This purpose, the note will say, has
never -varied, and the Government of the
United States strongly resents the Im
putations of bad faith contained In the
communication from the do facto Govern
ment of Mexico.
To the end that this purpose might be
speedily accomplished, the American reply
will guy, the Government of the United
States earnestly sought the co-operation of
the Carranza Government, even to the' ex
tent of bringing about the conferences on
the border between Generals Scott and
Obregon, which conferences the United
States hoped would result In an agree
ment under which this co-operation be
tween the military forces of the two Gov
ernments could be most effectively car
ried out.
Although tho Mexican representative at
these conferences declined to subscribe to
any format agreement, he gave to General
Scott, the note will say, such verbal as
surances as to lead the American Govern
ment to hope that effective action would be
taken by the de facto Government to clean
up the remaining bandits and thus permit
the expedition to be withdrawn.
The note will take direct exception to
statements contained In the Mexican note
to the effect that General Scott had prom
ised Generals Obregon and Trevlno that no
other expeditions would be sent across the
line in the event of future raids, and on be
half of General Scott will deny that the
latter had assured General Obregon that no
expedition had been or was to he sent In
pursuit of the Glenn Springs and Boqutllas
raiders.
The hopes that the American Govern
ment entertained regarding the promises
of Obregon. the note will continue, have
been void of fulfilment owing to the
apathy of the Mexican forces. In the
meantime disorders on the part of law
less bands have continued and elements
hostile to the United States have been able
either through the connivance or the Indif
ference of representatives of the de facto
government In northern Mexico to ninn
large anti-American demonstrations In spme
of the principal cities controlled by Qarranza,
and tp Incite the populace to take up arms
gainst the United States.
WANTS DBRDS ,NOT WORDS. '
Under such conditions, the note will de
clare, the United States cannot consent to
withdraw Its forces, the main object and
purpose of which has been to safeguard
American territory. The United States,
however, stJU stands ready to withdraw tho
expedition at any time that the Carranza
authorities are able by actual deeds rather
than promises to demonstrate their ability
to take hold of the situation and, maintain
order along the border.
What effect, the note Is going to have
en the Mexican people Is a matter of ex
treme concern to official here. Many are
frankly of the opinion that It will result
In a, hostile demonstration that wilt force
.the American Government to more aggres-
n suing up the outlook, state Depart,
inent officials admit themselves hand
capped by their Inability to ascertain
what ts, behind these antl-Amerlcan dem
onstrations that nave been staged at
Chihuahua city, SaltUla and other cities.
That an organized propaganda of some
kind Is at worlt la shown by the uniformity
in character of the demonstrations, but
whether Carranza. himself is to any way
responsible Is not known.
Silk hats glinting In tho sun;
vests.
Strnw
bands.
Eands without straw lints.
Loud cigars that don't need nny bands.
Unmusical politicians blowing their own
horns.
Glasses clinking. Knives nnd forks
Jingling. Also much small change.
Buttons, bunting, badges and baggage.
. Porters, waiters and, last but not least,
shouters.
This, In n nutshell. Is tho Democratic
convention which opened hero today.
At some of tho hotels ono might think
It was a men's fnshlon show or a meeting
of railroad presidents. In fact, If clothes
nnd stylo may bo considered nny criterion
the meeting Is anything but Democratic.
Democratic, according to Webster, a gen
tleman who dealt In wordB, Is "befitting the
common people; opposed to aristocratic."
But the golden surroundings of a largo
number of the dandified delegates) Indicate
that thoy must havo forgotten the meaning
of the word.
Somo strut about with elevated eyebrows
nnd protruding chests and ono half expects
to see tho family trees planted on their
backs, Men not tightly shnved nnd glori
ously shlned nre given n wldo berth.
Even the St. Louis waiters soem to hnvo
caught tho "mo lawd" air. Thoy carry ele
vated noses and act ns though doing you
a favor when they accept a tip, unless of
largo diameter.
In one of tho hotels there Is n bird which
nt first glance looks like n parrot, but Its
figure Is somewhat roblnesquo. It has a
curving beak nnd a sonorous voice. But
the bird Is evidently related to tho parrot
family, for all dny long It Bhouts, "Second
term. Wilson; thnt's nil."
One of the delegates, who Is regarded us
an ornithological expert says the bird Is a
Wilson warbler." A glance at tho records
of Mr. Webster shows thnt n Wilson war
blor Is 'a small fly-cnchlng bird, bright yd
low, with n black crown."
There was a rumor that tho wnrbler
would bo nsked to deliver ono of the 45
addresses scheduled to take place during the
present festivities.
The bird was reticent in tho matter. It
. ...... ..a Mcu uii ono Biao nna closed a
lazy eye and said, "Second term, Wilson ;
that's all."

street Tho work was being done by An
thony Iigner, Jr., a builder, of 2338 Sha-
mokln street.

been hired by his foreman, Egner was not
responsible. Referee William 13. Scott de
cided that Douglas was entitled to com
pensation at the rate of $10 weekly until
his disability disappears.
