Ridicule Talk of
Japan and Mexico

In the opinion OF State Department Of
ficials, the report that Japan is backing
the Orozco rebellion. Is ludicrous.
A newspaper article read in the Senate
yesterday by direction of Senator Fall,
of New Mexico. stated the Mikado' s
government is behind the war. This
Japanese assistance, the article said,
was to be given in exchange for a con-
cession at Magdalena bay.
The Acting Secretary intimated the
Japanese ''bogey" is being worked over
time, and to put credence into such
rumors would be folly.
II Is known that Japan Is too much
involved financially to undertake any
such step as that contemplated in the
article read yesterday In the Senate ac-
cording to State Department officials.

happy, and David still believed he had heard the

was numb. She knew that David was going, but il
did not come home to her in the least except to make
