Telegram " sScurren;s and cross
currents that we're worked to the pro-
motion of revolution, and are now
working to the detriment OF media
tion, all have the same source.
These things are known and under
stood here. Niagara Falls (Onta-
rio) dispatch to the New York Herald
published June IL, 1914.
Readers of Sundays New York
Herald and. Omaha Bee, who we're
given an insight into the peculiar
and highly significant activities OF
the American end of the revolution
ary propaganda in relation to Mexico,
will doubtlessly be greatly interested
in the revelation that the same
forces that have been engaged in the
formulation of a railway program
for the Mexican people have been
exerted to prevent the success of me-
diation.
Documentary evidence published
Sunday clearly indicates the intimate
relationship between Captain Sher-
burne G. Hopkins-consultor legal,
as he calls himself, of the constitu-
tionalist junta at Washington-and
Henry Clay Pierce, whose deep in
terest in the railways of Mexico is
shown by his conferences with rep
resentatives of General Carranza.
In other ways attention was drawn to
the fact that the three Mexican repre-
sentatives of General Carranza, who are
understood to have been named as his
delegates TO confer with the representa-
tives of the Mexican government at
Niagara Falls, are the same three gentle
men TO whom, according to Captain
Hopkins full reports to General Car
rama, Mr.. Pierce had fully outlined a
program for the reorganization or the
northern railways of Mexico, into a sep
arate system, to be financed by Amerl,
can capital.
According to the same testimony, Mr.
Luis Blguero and his associates of the
delegation representing the Mexico City
government, are charged with being
agents Of Lord Cowdray. who is cnarac-
terized by Henry Clay Pierce as tho
actual controller of Mexico outside con-
stitutionalist lines
Money that Passed.
- ,s-a at..t.
of this remarkable inside correspondence
of the revolutionary junta Is that Jose
Vasconcelos, one OF General Carranza 5
representatives,, received money from Henry
Clay Pierce. Another interesting eisclos-
ure had to do with the payment of money
by Henry Clay Pierce to Captain Sher.
burne G. Hopkins. "for expenses" and
the correspondence relating thereto. II
will have been noted that in one or the
kilograms relating to this payment, ref
erence is made to the arrival in Wash
ington of Rafael zubaran, another OF
General Carranza's lieutenants, who had
devoted his attention to the railway end
of the situation and who. also, is un-
derstood to have been named by General
Carranza as one of his delegates al
Niagara Falls.
The activities of Captain Sherburne G.
Hopkins in the role of moulder of Ameri-
can public opinion have been briefly al
luded to. 1t is highly significant in this
connection to discover that Henry Clay
Pierce has been in some degree directing
Captain Hopkins concerning his activities
In this particular line.
