that second meeting with Gen.

scheduled for this afternoon.
His instructions confirm the
statement that the conference
will have no power to decide the
future movements of American
troops in Mexico.
No Withdrawal.
There will be no immediate
withdrawal of the expedition.
Scott will advise Obregon that
Washington has refused to con-
sent to discussion of the with
drawal question.
Oregon is expected to decline
politely to discuss anything else
until the withdrawal question is
settled. Then the conference
must adjourn, deadlocked.
Obregon said he would report
the whole situation to Carranza.
He indicated that a failure of the
conference would result in fur
Their diplomatic exchanges, but
not military operations.
Seek Intervention.
A break is considered unlikely.
Intervention interests still are
busy along the border trying to
induce a situation that would
make Intervention inevitable.
The Mexican and American
armies are inactive. In some
places they are only few miles
apart. There are now 1900
Americans in Mexico. Gen. Fun

hold out Indefinitely against larg-
er forces of Mexicans. taking the
