SAYS MEXICANS
were OUTRAGED
Arredondo Sends Note to Lam
sing Demanding Punishment.
Report Discredited.

On top of the two communications
which he sent to the State Department
Tuesday night demanding the release of
Mexican civilians arrested on the Amer
ican side of the border, and protesting
against the embargo being informally
imposed on foodstuffs and other kinds of
shipments into Mexico. Eliseo Arredondo,
the Mexican Ambassador-design yes
terday sent new note to Secretary Lam
sing.
The new communication charges that
American troops in Mexico have been
committing outrages on Mexican civil
ians, and demands punishment for those
responsible.
Secretary of State Lansing made II
clear yesterday afternoon that he is re-
Garding these various communications
from the Mexican Embassy as routine
matters" to be handled by subordinate
officials of the department. At a late
hour yesterday he had not personally
seen any of them.
Yesterdays note was addressed to the
American government on instructions
from the Mexican foreign office, and
read as follows:
r please present the following facts
to the State Department: Part of the
punitive expedition moving north yes
terday arrested 800 residents of La
Cruz, state of Chihuahua, subjecting
them to undue maltreatment before
they were released. A column of the
same force. three thousand strong,
leaving San Geronimo for Vale, state
of Chihuahua, is committing all kinds
of Outrages, those distinguishing
themselves by their excesses being
the Apaches, constituting part of the
above forces. Request the State De-
partment to give instructions that the
men guilty be punished and that ac-
of such acts"
Neither the State nor War Depart
ment had any information concerning
the alleged acts of the troops, and the
allegations were generally discredited.

CANOEIST LOSES

Swimmer, browns and Com

Clarence H. Walker. Is. employed in the
Bureau of Standards of the Department

A.. was drowned and DIR. Harold 5.
Stimson, 3430 Albemarle street, Chevy
Chace, was barely rescued last night
when their canoe capsized near Chain
Bridge.
At an early hour this morning Walker s
body had not been recovered. Charles W.
Cook, his roommate, who rescued Stim-
son in another canoe, spent several hours
searching the river, but in vain.
According to Cook, who reported the
fatality to the police, he was less than
fifty yards distant when the other canoe
overturned. He sped to their assistance,
and found DR.. Stimsdn clinging to the
side of the overturned craft, almost eX-
hausted.
Cook helped Stimson into his canoe.
and asked what had become of Walker.
Stimson replied that he didn't know.
They had capsized without warning, he
said, and he had come up under the boat.
When he fought his way out Walker
had disappeared.
At first neither Cook nor Stimson were
worried. Walker was an expert swim
mer. and they thought he probably had
swum ashore. Accordingly they padded
over to each bank in turn. and called to
him. Getting no response they returned
to the center Of the river and. using a
pocket fashlight belonging to Cook.
spent several hours in search. Then they
returned to Washington and notified the
police. The harbor police are now drag
ging the river for the body.
Walker came to Washington three
years ago from Philadelphia. He had
just received a diploma from Johns Hop
kins University, in Baltimore. for a
course in physics.
