Washington.-The text Of the
note to the Mexican defacto gov
ernment, transmitted TO James
Linn Rodgers. special representa-
tive OF the American government
in Mexico City, says:
Mr.. Arredondo delivered to this
government the following commu-
nication:
IL am directed by my govern
ment to inform your excellency,
with reference to the Carrizal in.
cident, that the chief executive,
through the Mexican War Depart
ment, gave orders to Gen. Jacin-
to B. Trevino not to permit Amer
lean forces from Gen. Pershing's
column TO advance further south,
nor to move either east or west
from the points where they are To-
Gated, and to oppose new incur
sons of American soldiers into
Mexican territory. These orders
were brought by Gen. Trevino TO
the attention of Gen Pershing,
who acknowledged the receipt OF
the communication relative there
to.
ION the 22d instant, as your
excellency knows. an American
force moved eastward quite far
from its base, Notwithstanding the
above orders. and was engaged by
Mexican troops at Carrizal, State
of Chihuahua. AS a result of the
encounter several men on both
sides were killed and wounded
and II American soldiers were
made prisoners
"You are hereby instructed to
hand to the minister of foreign re-
lations of the defacto government
the following:
"'The government of the United
States can put no other construc-
tion upon the communication
handed to the secretary of state
of the United States on the oath
of June by Mr. Arredondo, under
instructions Of your government,
than that it is intended as a form
al avowal of deliberately hostile
action against the forces of the
United States now in Mexico, and
of the purpose to attack them
without provocation whenever
they move from their present po-
stion in pursuance of the objects
for which they were sent there,
Notwithstanding the fact that
those objects not only involve no
unfriendly intention towards the
government and people of Mexico,
but are, on the contrary, intended
only to assist that government IN
protecting itself and the territory
and people Of the United States
against irresponsible and insurg-
ent bands Of rebel marauders.
"T am instructed, therefore, by
my government to demand the i'm
mediate release Of the prisoners
taken in the encounter at Carrizal,
together with any property Of the
United States taken with them,
and to inform you that the gov
ernment Of the United States eX-
poets an early statement from
your government as to the course
of action it wishes the govern
ment of the United States to un-
derstand it has determined upon,
and that it also expects that this
statement be made through the
usual diplomatic channels, and not
through subordinate military COM
manders. "
