CARRANzA TO SIGN
BORDER PROTOCOL

Washington, May 10.-Special Agent
Rodgers, in Mexico City, telegraphed
the state department that General Car
rama had indicated his approval OF
the tentative border protocol, which
has practically been concluded by
General Scott and General Obregon.
Eliseo Arredondo, ambassador
designate from the Mexican de facto
government, had an interview with
Secretary of State Lansing.
After the conference Mr.. Arredon-
do said he had told the secretary
there is not an iota of truth in re-
ports from the border that General
Obregon had demanded the with
drawal of American troops.
The ambassador denied also that
Mexican troops had been disposed
during the FL Paso conference SO as
to threaten General Pershing's line of
communication.
