EVIDENCES REACH WASHINGTON
THAT CARRANZA WANTS
SOLDIERS TO RETURN.

Washington, D. c., April 10-State
department dispatches today indicate
that Off cials of the Mexican de facto
government are viewing with some
anxiety the continued presence OF
American troops in Mexico. One dis
patch author1tatively was described
today as containing hint that GER
tain Mexican officials believed that the
purpose Of the American punitive ex-
pedition had been accomplished. This
belief was said to be based upon the
assumption that the bandits under
Villa have been dispersed.
Consul General Rodgers, it was
learned today, has advised the depart
ment that the de facto government
officials at Queretaro had intimated
to him they would like to know how
long the United States intended to
keep the troops in Mexico. Admins
tration officials in position to be
familiar with the Mexican situation
said the de facto government had not
set date upon which they thought
the American troops should be with
drawn. It was admitted in various
quarters, however, that such action by
the de facto government would not be
surprising.
Secretary Lansing and Secretary
Baker both declined to. comment to-
day on the reports.
Secretary Baker declared in answer
to questions that such an agreement
would come under the pending proto.
col and subject not under the war
departments Jurisdiction.
The proposed protocol of which
little has become known still is under
discussion at Gen. Carranza's provi.
sional capital, Queretaro.
At both the state and war depart.
ments it was said nothing was known

said he "is have we as a people aband-

"Do we intend to maintain the
standards of civic duty set up by our
