New Orleans, April 27.-Declaring
that since the issuance of President
Tafts recent proclamation addressed
to Americans in Mexico, life for the
Americans in that republic had be-
come unbearable, that citizens of the
United States, are insulted and mis-
treated in every part of Mexico, Glenn
ent Guion, owner Of Julia Carlisle
mines in Chihuahua, arrived here to-
day and declared that conditions be-
low the Rio Grande today are SO Sc
rtous that nothing can prevent the
Intervention of the American govern
ment within sixty days.
Il attribute the whole thing to the
message of President Taft, which, in
effect. said that the United States
will keep hands off and that Ameri-
cans in Mexico must take the best
care of themselves they can,'' de-
clared Mr.. Guion.
Conditions for Americans were bad
enough before, but since President
Taft's declaration they have become
intolerable for citizens of this coun-
try"
Mr.. Guion declared that the manner
in which American citizens have
been left to the mercy of bandits in
Mexico ''is little short of a crime"
In Chihuahua, he said, seventy per
cent of the Americans had left and
The other thirty per cent remain there
simply because they cannot leave.
Mr.. Guion said he left Chihuahua
after colonel on the staff
Of General Orozco, the rebel chief
lain, advised him and some of his
friends that it would be best for them
% go to the States.
Mr.. Guion is mining engineer of
New York, and formerly was a lieu
.enant in the United States navy.
