SCOTT CARRIES
HOPES OF U. S.
TO CONFERENCE

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Officials
here base all of their hopes for the
future relations between the United
States and Mexico on the outcome of
the conference about to be held be-
tween Major General Scott, chief of
staff of the American army, and Gen
eral Obregon, Mexican war minister.
On account of General Scott's sue
cess in previous negotiations with the
Mexican officials, it is believed that
he will be able to obtain as satisfac-
tory assurances from Obregon as any
one can. General Scott's instructions
from Washington will, however. re-
quire firmness as well as tact in deal
ing with the Mexican war minister.
Obregon will be told frankly that the
present mission in Mexico will not
be considered concluded until either
the American forces or those of the
de facto government have captured
Villa or forever ended his power. The
Mexican general will be told further
that the capture of Villa will be a
condition precedent to the withdrawal
of the American expedition.
Moreover. general Obregon will be
given to understand that the forces
of the de facto government must guar
antee that there will be no recurrence
of border raids.
