IS FELT TO-DAY
WASHINGTON AUTHORITIES ARE
PLAINLY WORRIED OVER
MEXICAN SITUATION.
CONSUL QUITS POST
Arrival Of Consul Hanna at Laredo
Indicates His Discretion" Bids
Him Leave Monterey.
Trouble Brewing.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Ad-
ministration officials felt more un-
easiness today over the Mexican sit
uation than they have admitted for
some time.
The most significant development,
some officials believe, was the ar
rival OF Consul Hanna, stationed at
Monterey, at Laredo today. The
state department teIegrapIled all
cOnsuls in the interior towns In
Mexico some time ago to return to
this country at their own "discre-
ton"
Hanna's return was reported this
afternoon. No reason was given for
his action.
The order to consuls to return
was given before several Of them
were ordered to the border for a
conference. A majority of them
did not return to their posts. Only
two consuls remain in the interior
of Mexico. These are Silliman at
Saltillo and Dickinson at San Luis
Potosi. Consul Rodgers Mt Chihua-
hua City is engaged In diplomatic
rather than consular duties and Is
not affected by the order.

brand NOTE
AS RANK FAKE
MEXICAN EMBASSY HAS NO IN
FORMATION THAT TREvINO
SENT SUCH MESSAGE.
OFFICIALS ANXIOUS
State Department Trying 10 Learn
II Note Was Actually Sent by
the Carranza Commander
In Northern Mexico.

WASHINGTON, June IL. - The
state department was today admit
tedly anxious to learn whether Gen.
Trevino had actually sent warm
ing message to Gen. Pcrshing and
II SO whether he was acting under
instructions from Carranza. Ii Is
hoped that 1t win be shown that
Trevino exceeded his instructions
either intentionally or otherwise.
At the Mexican embassy the
translation Of the text Of the note
II Trcvino sent one--was declared
to bo fake.
1t was said that the embassy had
not been informed that any message
had been sent, but such action by
Trevino was considered possible.
The failure OF the note to begin
with II am instructed by my first
chief" is declared by the embassy
to be ..very free translation to say
tho least"
"Thc Mexican people are tired Of
the tactics of the Americans" an
other phrase cited.
IA man Of Trevino's education
and military training would never
have written a note like this" 1t was
said at the embassy.
The embassy also pointed out that
previous reports OF u certain army
officer had proved unfOunded.
"This same officer" said the cm-
bassy, reported revolt of General
Herrera against Carranza and an
uprising of the Ojinaga garrison.
Both reports afterward proved to be
false"
Even some department officials
belittled the Trevino message.
They doubted II the text carried by
a morning press association was
correct. They pointed out that
General Pershing did not quote Tre-
vino directly.
Even II 1t Is correct, Which l
doubt, 1t is probably mere bonn
bast," said one official.
Officials admitted again today
that the situation carries IA degree
OF extreme danger" but added that
neither war nor Intervention would
come except through some overt act,
such as an attack on American forces
by recognized Carranza troops. This
is not expected. Further bandit
raids, it is said, will not change this
governments hand.
Consul Guyan at Progreso on the
east coast today reported that four
teen Americans had left there in the
last few days and other reports show
ed that several Americans had pass
ed through Eagle Pass and Laredo
enroute home. About one thousand
remain in Mexico City.
There are about 1900 i'm Tampico.

General Hugh l.. Scott, acting

message emphasized the fact that no
word had come direct from Pershing
himself. This was taken as official
confirmation of Trevino's reported
action inasmuch as General Bell
