NEW YORK, March Ii.--A posi-
tive denial that Japan and Mexico
have any secret understanding that
should cause apprehension on the
part OF any other government" was
made by Senior Jose Linantour,
Mexican minister of finance to-day.
His denial, which was In the form
of an authorized statement" did not
reach the extent OF denying that
between the two nations. Limantour
declared that the report that Japan
wac financing" the revolutionary
~ ovement in Mexico was ito laugh
ne again insisted positively that
there could never be Intervention In
Mexico by the United States and said
that the 'maneuvers'' we're UNDER
stood In Mexico to be for the purpose
Of starving out the insurrectos in
tour statement was as follows:
ITO my mind the association Of the
government OF Japan with the gov.
ernment OF Mexico II absurd. On.
cial dcniaIs have been issued by rep.
rescntatives Of both the Japanese and
Mexican governments that Mexico
has given amy privileges to japan
that should cause apprehension on
the part Of other governments. To
say that Japan Is financing tho insur
rection in Mexico 10 70 laugh.
The dispatches In the American
newspapers from Mexico City and
Washington are very well defined and
show that affairs are thoroughly Sun-
derstood by the ofiicials of each gov
eminent.
Il sincerely hope that very soon
there will be an equally thorough
understanding between the people OF
the United States and Mexico.
AS l set forth yesterday. my gov
eminent could not consider inter
vention for moment. | think the
venfng and there has been nothing
OF an authoritative character to indi-
cate that Intervention has been con-
templated by any other foreign power
having interests In Mexico.
naturally my country desires that
the insurrectionists In northwestern
Mexico shall be prevented from
smuggling arms, ammunition and
supplies from this side of the bor-
der. That Is what the United States
troops propose to do. according 20 all
trustworthy information. II now only
remains for them to accomplish this
task. ] have every reason to believe
that this Is within their power.
i have always been a great be-
lever in the keen sense Of justice of
the American people. Now that there
mas been time for sober thought
appeal to that striking characteristic
and believe that your people will soon
