Another step taken as precaution-
airy measure has been the action Of the
state department in calling the atten-
ton of consuls In Mexico to the stand.
ing instructions that they advise all
Americans to leave that country. The
last estimates made by the consuls
showed about three thousand Ameri.
cans beyond the border. Probably
there are many more who are not reg.
istered at the consulates.
State department officials said the
fact the old orders had been revived
had no other significance than as
showing a desire to keep consuls in
touch with those In their districts ad.

cation that President Wilson has fully

BACK TO THEIR GOVERNMENTS
TO BE SETTLED.
TEXAS TOWNS RAIOED
In a Signed Statement Governor Fer
auson Declares That United States
Should Take Hand and Restore
Order in Southern Republic.

Fl Paso, Tex.--After almost two
weeks of discussion, the conferences
of Major Generals Scott and Funston
and War Minister ObregOn over Amer.
lean troop dispositions in Mexico
came to an end Thursday night, with
out any agreement being reached.
The whole matter was referred back
to the American and de facto govern
ments to be settled through diplo-
matte channels.
The situation is almost exactly
where it stood before the conferences
began.
The Mexican government still in
sists on the withdrawal of Brigadier
General Pershlng's command upon a
certain date and wants that date to
come quickly.
It Is known that General Obregon
has been willing to make concessions
in order to reach an agreement with
the American conferees. He has been
oVerruled, however, by the first chief,
Venustiano Carranza, and his advis'
ers. After practically conceding the
demands of the American conferees,
he was compelled to reverse his atti-
tude.
After the conference General Scott
distributed copies of the following
statement to waiting newspaper men:
I'VE wish to announce that after
several conferences marked through
out with conspicuous courtesy and
good will, in which conferences mu-
tual expressions were exchanged and
information was collected on the mill.
tary situation on the frontier, 1t was
agreed upon by the cOnferees to sus-
pend the conference and report back
to their governments in order that
these may be able through their re-
spsctiVe foreign departments to con-
clude this matter and that the ending
Of these conferences does not mean in
any way rupture Of the good rela-
tiOns of friendship between the con-
ferees nor between the respective gov.
ernments. "a. ObregOn,
