U. S. EXPRESS COMPANY
TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS
Success OF the Parcels Post Is
Said To Be the Main
Cause.

New York, March 14.-Directors
of the United States Express COM
pany voted unanimously to-day to
liquidate its affairs and dissolve 1t in
the shortest possible time. The pre-
else means to be adopted for realiz-
ing on the company's assets were
not disclosed, but it is thought prob
able a syndicate will be formed to
take them over, so they may be dis
posed of to the best advantage.
The company's assets are various
ly estimated. but persons familiar
with their value declare the return
to the share holders will be between
800 and 500 share. There is
considerable real estate of value, as
well as costly equipment and out
standing contracts with railroads,
which it is expected will be trans
ferred to other companies at fair
profit.
The step taken by the directors
to-day was foreshadowed few

had sold down to 3S last December.

responsible for the company's re-
tirement after sixty years contin-
uous operation over some of the
leading railroads of the country.
There are outstanding 100000
shares of United States express
stock. and these are in compare

CARRAN MA HURI.S DEF
AT SECRETARY BRYAN

Washington, March 14.-Gen.
Carranzas reply to Secretary Bryan,
who had demanded protection in
Mexico for all citizens of foreign
countries. emphatically defies the
United States right to ask for pro-
lection for any other than its own
citizens.
The rebuff shows plainly that Mr..
Bryan, when asking for his right,
failed to mention the Monroe Doc
trine under which the United States
can demand protection for Europ-
cans i'm the South American coun-
tries.
Soon after Carranza's reply reach
ed the State Department Secretary
Bryan sent around to the various
embassies and legations here text
of the epistle. This was done, it is
said, with the object of ascertaining
views of the nations involved so as
to frame an answer to aCrranza. The
one hope at the State Department
is that the European nations will
issue threat to Carranza and de-
mand that any dealing with him be
conducted through the United
States.
