President Withdrew Troops from
Mexico Because Mexicans Were
Able to Control Affairs.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 1S.-
President Wilson declared today that
lie had ordered the American troops
withdrawn from Vera Cruz because
he believed the MeXicans now in con-
troll were able to manage the affairs
OF their country. Co-incidentally
with the presidents remarks on Mex
leo to his callers. the British ambas-
sador, Sir Cecil Spring-Rice. express
ed to the state department his own
regret that Sir Lionel Garden. Brit
ish minister to Mexico, should have
been quoted in criticism OF President
Wilson's policy. He said British Dip
lomats were never permitted to crit
icise the heads of foreign countries,
and whatever statement may have
been made it did not represent the
view of the British government.
Officials accepted the ambassadors
explanation. They had realized Sir
Lionel Garden had personal differ
cnces with Carranza and had sup
posed that he spoke essentially to-
ward tile latter because the Consti-
nationalist chief had forced him to
leave Mexico.
The president said today the ques-
ition OF withdrawing troops from the
Texas border had not been consider
ed; nor>was he able to predict when
