NEXT STEP IN
JENKINS' CASE
IS UNDECIDED
Diplomats Believe Investiga
tion of Kind of Prosecu
tion Is Necessary
Washington, Nov. 28.—Diplomats
are of the opinion that in framing
its further action in the William O.
Jenkins case the government here
will have to determine whether the
civil prosecution of Jenkins is a
civil prosecution in good faith in
which the consular agent is receiv
ing speedy and fair trial with all
' preservation of his rights, or whether
he is being "molested" by the Car
ranza government while legal and
technical arguments, are being ad
vanced to justify the procedure.
Mexico replied with an argumenta
tive diplomatic refusal to the Amer
ican demand for the immediate re
lease of the consular agent impris
oned at Puebla.
The official note was delivered
here but not made public. There is
no reason to doubt that it agrees
with the copy given out last night
by the Mexican consul general at El
Paso.
No Official Comment
No comment was forthcoming to
indicate how the State Department
regards the answer to what was con
sidered one of the sharpest warnings
yet sent to Mexico and neither was
there any indicaUon of what the
government's next step would be.
The Mexican reply, which accord
ing to its text, was prepared at the
direction of President Carranza,
argues In the main that the Mexican
government cannot order the re
lease of a prisoner while his case is
under adjudication in the civil courts
of one of its states and contends
that the American government's de
mand for the consular agent's re
lease had no foundation or prece
dent in International law.
Borne new angles of the Mexican
viewpoint on the Jenkins case, hith
erto unpublished in the United
States, are revealed. The tendency
of the Mexican argument is to sep
arate the Jenkins case into two
phases: First, the situation in which
the consular agent was kidnaped
by bandits and held for ransom, and
last, his subsequent arrest and im
prisonment by the civil authorities
of Puebla on a charge of having
"connived" with the bandits. The
note at hand deals with the latter
phase exclusively.
It points out that Jenkins was first
held under what is known to the
Mexican penal code as "preventive
imprisonment." This provision cov
ers a situation in which a person
is suspected of complicity in a crim
inal act. He subsequently was held
under a provision covering "formal"
imprisonment, which, under the
Mexican penal code, applies when a
magistrate believes there is sufficient
evidence to establish that a crime
has been committed.
The allegation against Jenkins is
that he signed conflicting state
ments regarding his kidnaping and
therefore was "guilty of falsifying
judicial declaration."
Can Be Released on Rail
The note says Jenkins has oppor
tunity to be released on bail in the
sum of one thousand pesos, the
equivalent to five hundred dollars in
American money if reckoned in coin
rather than Mexican bank notes, and
that Jenkins has refused to avail
himself of it although he has been
requested to do so.
Recalling that Mexican consuls in
the United States have been impris
oned and that Mexico has never
asked the United States to waive lo
cal law in their cases, the note re
marks that "the Mexican govern
ment cannot concede to American
citizens more rights than Mexicans
enjoy In the United States."
The Mexican note opens with the
observation that the foundation for
the American government's demand
probably "can only be the power of
the country that makes it" and as
the conclusion of a lengthy legal
argument expresses its hope that the
State Department will withhold its
judgment on the Jenkins case until
the civil courts in Puebla have
passed on it.
In the note to Mexico the State
Department not only demanded the
immediate release of Jenkins but
warned Carranza that further moles
tation of the consular agent would
bring the relations between the two
countries to a precarious point. As

It Is possible that Hindman, who
will accept the place, will have his
headquarters here. He Is a young
banker and lumberman, capable,
likable and energ'etlc with many

it is rumored that Palmer did not

Pennsylvania's record breaking

will close with the month has been
made up of checks ranging ail the
way from one dollar to $1,200,000
and by numerous payments by

received this year than usual, even

Highway Department, the greatest'

comparatively little. If the $12,-

is believed. As it is, they will go
over $50,000,000 for the first time.
