Groups Are Active.

Washington, June 30.--The United

that so far az II can prevent there
shall be no further revolutionary
movements In Mexico and that Amer
lean territory at any rate, shall not be
used as base for such expeditions.
This. 1t became known officially, led

other Mexicans OF prominence now
living In the United States.
To Prosecute Vigorously.
Assistant Attorney General Warren
conferred with Secretary Lansing, af-
ter which the intention of the gov
eminent to prosecute vigorously all
violations OF neutrality laws, irrespec.
tive of the prominence of the indi-

vealed.
According to the information thus
far gathered there are at least four
separate and distinct groups, apart
from the Villa and Carranza support
ers In the United States. who are &C.
tive politically In the Mexican situa-
ton. Whenever such activity shall
reach the point of setting on foot a
military expedition from the United
States arrests will follow, according to
Mr.. Warren, who Ia handling the case
Oppose Villa and carranxa.
The Information gathered by gov.
eminent agents discloses that the
various groups have a common pur.

but are working Independently of each
other. Inquiry is being made to learn
what financial interests are support.

The position of the United States is
that the revolutionary elements In
Mexico should not be augmented and

devastation Of the military factions
already In the field are OF such threat.
