CARRANZA'S REQUEST
GIVES MUCH CONCERN.
nr AsseeiA1Ep rRrss,

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 3D.
Carranza's request for the withdrawal
Of the American forces from Vera
Cruz on the grounds that it was
violation of the national sovereignty
OF Mexico" and hostile act to the
Mexican nation gave the president and
his cabinet advisers, with whom he
was in conference, much concern.
In consequence the White House
statement was issued to inform Car
rama that the United tSates could not
recognize him or seek reparation from
his as he requested but must deaf
with the authorities in control of the
territory where offenses were com
mitted
This has been the consistent course
of the Washington government during
the present administration The fact
that Charge OfShaughnessy had been
handed his passports by General
Huerta added an acute aspect to the
situation but has been more or less
expected.
Secretary Bryan said that the mere
withdrawal Of the Charge did not
necessarily mean war.
Mr. O'Shaughnessy's last despatch
to the department said that from SoV
to 200 Americans were in the city
and they would be protected by the
guards of other Legations, numbering
about 100 soldiers.
