u. S. WON'T DEMAND
MEXICAN APOLOGY
Dissertation of American Flag Was
Act of "Lawicss Persons without
Authority"

WASHINGTON, April 2.--lnasmuch
as the desecration of the American
flag flying above the home Of John
B. McManus, ali American citizen
murdered in Mexico City was the act
OF lawless persons, acting without au-
thOrity. the United States government
decided today to make no demand for
an apology.
Secretary Bryan announced that the
incident was closed with the receipt
today of a dispatch from the Brizilian
minister i'm Mexico city
The Brazilian minister" said Mr..
Bryan, did not think the facts in the
case showed any attempt on the part
Of any officers or authorities TO desc
crate the flag ana he did not therefore
regard it as a case where an apology
should be asked"
Officials pointed out later that the
attitude was I'm accord with the policy
of the United States in dealing with
such cases In the past.
The payment of the $4,000 in
demnity to the widow OF McManus
and the general expression of regret
by tho Villa a-Zapata authorities are
held to be sufficient reparation in the
circumstances.
Secretary Bryan today conveyed to
the Brazilian minister the apprecia'
tion Of the United States government
"for his efficient handling of the
