It contains, however an additional list of contributors, of S100 or more up to November A and also an itimized statement of dis bursements made through the New York headquarters.

MEXICAN OFFICIALS
 AWAIT TEXT OF PROTOCOL
Arc in Attendance at Constitutional
 Convention Tn Queretaro.

Queretaro, Mexico, Nov. 26.-High Mexican officials who are here to at- tend the constitutional convention are still awaiting the full text of the bor- der control protocol signed in Allan tic City last week and the full report of Secretary Lansing's statement de- flning in part the policy of the United States government toward Mexico be- fore they will make any comment on either.
 There is evidence. however, that the news of the protocol and of Secretary Lanes statement has been received with mixed feelings. There is seem- ingly satisfaction that an arrangement has been reached for the withdrawal of the American troops from Mexico and for the control of the border but this is tempered by the feeling that Secretary Lanes statement will re- quire deep consideration. The terms of the protocol mentioning delay of forty days for the withdrawal of the troops. if conditions permit of such action, is adversely commented on in some quarters as many influential men had hoped for the immediate recall of the troops to America nterritory.
