WASHINGTON, June 13.-Unless

of the reply to General Carranza's de-
mand for withdrawal of American
troops probably viii be delayed until
after the st. Louis convention because
the administration desires to avoid
any drastic step at a time when it
might appear to be prompted by poll

Secretary Lansing and his advisors
are said TO have given careful consid-
