Mexico City, June 97.-Ths charge
that the Cniref States is attempting to
seek a pretext for Intervention in Mex,
ieo is made by Foreign Secretary Agui-
ilr in message to the I.atin.American
tepublics.
"Apparently the American govern.
government, without adequate reasons
for declaring war ON Mexico, wishes to
make hostilites inevitable, wired the
foreign secretary. "Mexco should win
or succumb with dignity"
An earlier communication sent to the
liatin-American republics last night de-
Ciared that the United States is concen.
trating forces against the Mexican
border and that war appears inevitable.
"The Mexican people are ready to
defend their sovereignty and independ-
ence at any cost of blood and destruc-
fiOn Of their welfare, said the com
municatiOn. "Thc Mexican government
firmly believes that the attitude of the
American government is not in accord
ance with its friendly protests to the
Pan.American republics, that the acts
against Mexico affect all other coun-
tries of this continent and the Friendly
ties that bind them at this moment and
should bind them in the future. "
