CARRANzAS REPLY
REACHES CAPITOL
PROMISES TO RESTORE ORDER IN
NORTHERN MEXICO AND STOP
RAIDS UPON BORDER.
CONCILIATORY TONE USED
Note Is Said To Reiterate That Pres.
snce Of U. S. Troops In Mexico
Is Aogravating To Friendly
Relations.

Washington.-A note to the United
States from the de facto government
OF Mexico has reached Eliseo Are.
4ondo, Mexican assador-designate
here. The communication is describ-
ed by persons close to the embassy
as being conciliatory In tone and de.
signed to offer the basis of an
Rmicable settlement of the differences
between the two governments. 1t is
in reply to both the last two notes sent
to the de facto government by Secre.
tary Lansing, and is said to bring the
Issues between the two governments
down to date.
The Mexican government states that
1t has accepted in principle sugges-
tons Of mediation from other Ameri-
can republics, and invites the United
States likewise to record itself. 1t
adds, however, that direct negotiations
between the two governments con-
cerned should bring more satisfactory
results than mediation.
Promises to restore order In North
ern Mexico and protect American ter
ritory from raids are renewed with
the suggestion that the presence Of
American troops on Mexican soil is
largely responsible for unsettled con-
ditions and that their withdrawal
would go far toward eliminating
sources of friction and difficulty.
Secretary Lansing has been told in.
formally of the arrival Of the note and
of what was understood TO be its con-
tents. He seemed highly gratiied but
would not comment pending its de-
livery to him.

MEXICO FACES FAMINE.
Pinch Of Hunger Already Felt In Ger
tain Sections.


Eagle Pass.-Curtailment OF traffic
between the United States and Mexico
due to the present situation, already
is causing a pinch Of hunger through
out the southern republic, according
to late arrivals from Mexico.
According to men in close touch
with Mexican affairs, Gen. Carranza
would be unable to feed his troops
longer than three months should the
United States blockade the ports and
stop food shipments across the Dor
der. In six months, these men say,
the entire country would be in state
of famine.
According to estimates said to be
conservative. the three main Mexican
commanders have upwards Of 10000
men under arms. Gen. Pablo Gonzales
is said to have 10000 men, Gen. Obre-
gon $4,000 and Gen. Jacinto Trevino
$4,000. These estimates, however,
probably include a certain proportion
of camp followers.

INSULTING NOTE RECEIVED
Mexico Denies American Troops the
Right to Invade Its Territory and
Questions Our Motives.


Mexico City.-Formal notice has
been served upon the United States
government by the de facto govern
ment of Mexico that the presence of
American troops would not be toll
Grated any longer upon the soil Of
Mexico, which is taken as an answer
to the recent note of President Wilson.
The Mexican government charges
the United States with sending a
naughty and discourteous communica-
tion and the attention of the United
States authorities is called to the fact
that Mexicans have been murdered up
on the border, where no attempt was
made to punish the perpetrators.
The Mexican foreign offices lays
the blame for the killing of Is Ameri-
cans at Santa Ysabel upon the vic
Tins for attempting a journey across
territory that was known to be dan
gerous.
1t is declared that the pursuit of the
bandits under the leadership of Fran
cisco villa was taken at once after
they began their depredations and that
the duty Of stamping out these out
laws rests with Mexico and not with
the United States
In substance, the Mexican govern
ment denies the right Of American
troops to occupy Mexican territory
and declares that the presence Of
United States troops in this country
is a violation Of the national rights.

NEW MONUMENT
FOR SHILOH PARK
UNITED DAUGHTERS OF coNFED
ERAcY TO HONOR MEMORY
OF DEAD HEROES.
UNWILLING IN OCTOBER
Monument To Be One Of the Finest In
Shiloh National Park-Work
Conducted Solely BY
Women.

Paris-One of the dearest dreams OF
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eraey is about to be realized in the
erection Of a monument on Shiloh bat
tlefeld. In the National park, which is
located in Tennessee, near the Missis'
sippi line, but a few miles from Co
rinth.
Already they have raised all but a
few thousands of the $4,000 required,
and Mrs. White has announced that
she expects the monument to be un-
yelled in October of this year.
1t is said this monument is one of
the finest in Shiloh National park. 1t
is of Mt. Airy granite from the cele.
brated quarries In North Carolina.
Across the front it 10 IS feet; the high
est point, the central group of figures,
Is 1871 feet. All the figures are in
bronze, heroic size, nine feet. In the
central group death and night are
shown snatching away the laure,
wreath from the Confederacy. The
sculptor is Frederick c. Hibbane of
Chicago, who viii be paid $4,000 this
month, leaving only the final payment
of $4,000 due him when the monument
is completed.
One noticeable feature of this Shiloh
work is that 1t has been conducted
solely by the women of the Shiloh com,
mittee, without the aid of any men,
with the exception of the sculptor and
Mr. Rice Of Shiloh Park, whose CO.
operation with the committee will have
the details meet the requirements OF
the war department.

New Bedford, Mass, and in 1857 was
married to Edward H. Green, who was
