CRITICISES THE
MEXICAN POLICY

Washington. March 17.-George w.
Knoblauch, business partner of the
late John B, McManus, the American
citizen killed recently in Mexico City
visited Secretary Bryan today to see
about getting an indemnity for Me-
Manus' widow and children. He also
told the secretary what he thought
about the administration's Mexican
policy and went to see Joseph Turn-
ulty, secretary to the president, who
referred him back to Mr.. Bryan.
Knoblauch said tonight that as to
what. was being done on the McManus
case he had mo ground for. unfavor-
able criticism" and that what he OBJ
jected to was "the general policy of
the administration.
"The Democratic national platform
specifically promised to Americans
who reside in foreign countries or on
the border protection both as to their
lives and their property" he said, and
added that they had not received it
in the Mexican troubles.
II may add he remarked. that in
this respect the Taft administration
was quite as remiss as the present
one"
Secretary Bryan said he had de-
clined to discuss the Mexican situa-
ton on a partisan basis.
