ances from Carranza that the foreign.
ers in the City Of Mexico be given

Carranza, according to what has been
given out, takes the position in his re-
ply that the stated conditions in the
Mexican capital are the results of the
Vaccinations of the wealthy residents
OF that city, who have carried on a
campaign intended TO bring the cause
Of the Constitutionalists into dis
repute.

of Mexico, which would be unguarded
after his departure.
President Wilson said yesterday
that Carran4a has been called upon to
protect the Foreigners in Mexico City
and other parts of the Republic where
he claims power.
Carranza preliminary reply to the
representations of Consul Silliman re-
gardin! conditions in the capital is a
general denial that the conditions are
as pictured, or that they were sufficient
to cause the American protest.
no U,timatum Sent
The President says that no ultimatuH
has been sent to Carranza, but the ae
ton in demanding of Carranza that for

an entire change of attitude on the

the Carranzistas have captured Mon
terey.
The state department is advised thai
the CMranzistas have evacuated Pie
dras NCgras, being defeated, and arr
