ORDERS TROOPS OUT


registered at Columbus or of any kind
whatever at any point of the frontier
line" March 18, the statement con-
tinues. Frank Polk, acting secretary
of state, in an interview with the Car
rama confidential agent deplored not
having received the observations of
the Mexican government before Amer
lean troops crossed. the border, declar-
ing that the passage of troops took
place in the best of faith and in the
belief that it would not be necesSa ry
to enter into more details of an agree
ment considered definite and ended.
Lansing Said Troops Would Halt.
These declarations made by Mr.
Polk were later confirmed on March
23, to the Mexico representative by
Secretary Lansing, who stated also
that he was sorry at having inter-
preted wrongly the contents of the
said note in respect to the passage of
troops and that they would not ad-
vance more to the south of the place
where they were.'
Reference is also made in the note
to the declaration made by President
Wilson on March 26, saying, the ex-
peditfon was ordered under an agree
ment with the de facto government of
Mexico for the purpose only of captur-
ing the bandit Villa whose forces have
Invaded territory of the United States
and on no pretext whatever would we
order an invasion of that republic or
Cites Wilson's Message.
That idea" continues the note,
published by his excellency, President
Wilson, was rectified on March 81 by
a message sent to our confidential
agent in Washington in which he was
instructed to call our attention to the
idea indicated, since the note of March
0 referred to the reciprocal passage
of troops only in case that incidents
like those which occurred at Columbus
should be repeated"
In concluding, the note, which S
signed by Candido Aguilar, secretary
for foreign. affairs, points out that as
the American expedition has fulfilled
its object insofar as it will be able to
do so, as the party headed by Villa has
already dispersed: and finally because
there are Mexican troops In sufficient
numbers pursuing them. and more
forces are being sent to exterminate
the rest of the beaten party. the first
chief of the constitutionalist army,
charged with the executive power of
the nation considers that it is already
time to treat with the United States
government for the withdrawal of
their forces from our territory.

Andres Garcia, Mexican consul in
FL Paso and chief representative OF

that the United States would receive
the note in the same fair and friendly
spirit in which it was sent. Mr.. Gar

to General Funston, the American
troops should retire from Mexico
when the Villa bands were dispersed
