Urge Opposition to U. S.
in Mexico, Washing
ton Is Told.
TEUTON CITIZENS
HIGHLY FAVORED
Won Rintelen's Activities Re.
called-Reports of Japanese
Hostility Discredited.

Washington, June 22.-Advices re-
ceiyed here from Mexico allege that
German representatives there have en-
couraged General Carranza and the
officers Of the de facto government in
their opposition 10 United States
troops remaining in that country. The
form OF encouragement was said 70
have been moral rather than material.
The reports further declare that
German citizens in Mexico are being
treated with great consideration, their
property not being molosted. Some
Americans, upon leaving Mexico, have
taken advantage of the favors accorded
German subjects by placing their
property in the hands Of German
friends.
This information was disclosed by
competent authority in connection with
information concerning the activity in
Mexican affairs OF Captain Franz Won
Rintelen, now under indictment in New
York for alleged conspiracy to foment
strikes in American munitions plants,
and under arrest in England
Won Rintelen is known to have been
most active in Mexican affairs. His
activities began at the time Villa and
Carranza were at odds and when
Huerta went to the border 10 direct
plot to gain control of the government.
Won Rintelen Hoped to Hurt Allies.
Won Rintelen to-day was described
as having been prompted by three
motives in endeavoring to stir up
trouble between the United States and
Mexico, although primarily his activi-
ties we're said to have been directed
against the Entente Allies and not
against the United States.
Officials believe that Won Rintelen
thought that by starting a dispute be-
tween the United States and Mexico
munition shipments from America
would be stopped, that the United
States would be too busy 70 pursue the
submarine controversy, and that the
Allied navies would be prevented from
securing fuel oil and gssolene from
the Mexican fields. More than sixty
per cent. OF the oil used in the British
navy comes from Mexico.

time would the United States have

il is certain that no steps toward re-
