WASHINGTON, d. c.. March G.
The administration has made
Representation" to General Car
rama in the firmest tones that have
been used in the years of trouble
in Mexico. General Carranza was
plainly told that the starvation
which threatened Mexico City must
be relieved. He was warned that
this nation does not approve of his
course in abandoning the city to its
fate when the first riots occurred.
General Obregon, the Carranza
commander, has refused to permit
an international committee compos-
ed of the wealthy members OF the
foreign colony to succor the needy.
He declared Mexico needs no
foreign aid" All merchants who
closed their stores have been order
ed to reopen them under threat OF
punishment.
Secretary Bryan announced that
he had sent an urgent telegram &c
American Consul Silliman with in
structions to lay the situation earn
estly before General Carranza, SC
that General Obregon might be di
rected to accept the preferred aie

News of the finding of the men

that more living may be rescued.
A crew VII oxygen helmets began
ct once to push its way TO remote
chamber where nine men are believed
to be living.
Yesterday and last night hope Of
recovering any more living miners
had been abandoned, and the citi-

mines for the living and for dead
