NOTE URGED BY ENVOY

Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican Ambsssa-
dor Designate, called on Secretary OF
State Lansing yesterday afternoon and
asked him when Gen. Carranza may ex-
peCt a reply to his demand that AmeTi-
can troops be withdrawn from Mexico.
1t is understood that Mr.. Arredondo
acted under instructions from Mexico
City.
Almost Immediately after the confer
ence with the Mexican envoy. Secretary
Lansing stated that there were mo pros
poets OF a reply to Csrranza-" Later,
however. it was learned that a lengthy
cipher message was dispatched TO J. Linn
Rodgers. the State Departments special
agent at Mexico City. Mr.. Arredondo' S
interview with Secretary Lansing was eX-
tremely brief

ent purpose on the part Of the admins
tration TO forward a reply 10 Csrranza
during the st. Louis convention.

HOUSE PASSES MONEY
BILL FOR DIPLOMATS

The House yesterday passed the con-
sular and diplomatic appropriation bill
carrying total OF almost S. 500, 900. This
is the largest bill of this kind ever report
ed and is S,42l,966 in excess of that of
last year. Practically all of this is due
to the European war with its increased
cost OF living and the increased burdens
upon American officials abroad in look
ing after the interests of other govern
ments.
Included in this increase also is the an
nual payment of $4,000 to Panama which
heretofore was provided for in another
measure. The bill carried a new item
called the post allowance for the con.
sular service" to be distributed among
consular officials to meet the serious ad-
vance in the cost of living and the main
tenance of consular offices. The emer.
gency fund under the control of the State
Department was increased from $4,000 to
s2Os 900.

The attitude of the New York list in
regard to the various news devevolp-
ments is shown in the following sum-
mary by New York broker:
"A renewal OF bullish tactics by the
element which as been conspicuous for
its dealings in Reading had the effect of
stimulating the rail department, and i'm
parting an improved tone to the indus
trial list. Convention news was closely
scanned, but reports were so conflicting
that the same did not exert much inlu-
ence marketwise. The buying OF rails
is largely based on the thought that at
the conference now in progress between
the managers and union representatives.
that a compromise will be effected OF a
sort that will abviate the proba bility
OF tie-up, and then, of course, sub
stantial earnings and well-defined pros
poets of dividend increases In numerous
directions. AFFORD a satisfactory basis for
substantial class OF buying.
While the industrials In sympathy
display q frmer tone. still It Is becoming
apparent that the advantage lies in the
direction OF the carriers, and conse-
quently there is in progress much sub
stitution. Strength or an upward trend
in call money will perhaps as much as
anything else facilitate the adjustment
OF the Industrial account. which at pres
ent is very much one-sided That is to
say that that class of Issues has been
distributed on a large scale, and the short
interest therein is ON meager proportions
with the result that new buying Is at a
minimum and liquidation sales do not
meet an aggressive buying demand on
down-turns. While we favor the rails,
We continue to believe that later on the
wisdom Of reducing industrials at this
level will be quite apparent"
