Hopefv speedy Agreement.

At.>s . City, N. j., Nov. 2l.-Tho
American commissioners today gave to
the Mexican commissioners what u un-
derstood to be the last opportunity for
an amicable settlement OF the problems
that have arisen because OF Carranxa.s
failure to provide adequate protection
for life and property along the interna.
tionat border.
In Joint session Secretary of Interior
Lane. chairman OF the American com.
mission, informed the Carranza repre-.
Isentatives that the American punitive
expedition would be Withdrawn when
the United States felt the time oppor-
tune, and incident to such withdrawal
he outlined the manner in which the
American government was prepared 70
guard the long line of frontier and was
prepared to run down and punish any
band which attempted to cross into the
United States.
Luis Cabrera. chairman Of the Mexi-
can commission. and his colleagues re-
eived what Is regarded as the last word
was not expected to be known until
after the session came to an end this
afternoon.
Lane Brings Final Offer.
Secretary Lane returned here late
yesterday from Washington. He inn
mediately went into conference with
DIR. J. T.. Mott and George Gray. the
other American commissioners. inform
ing them in detail OF the conference he
had at Washington Saturday with the
president.
The atmosphere Of uncertainty and
even helplessness which has been Ap-
parent for many weeks Ia entirely lack
Ing. The Americans, appeared confident
! that the end OF the conference is In
sight. Their propositions have been re-
\ duced to writing and 1t - understood
! will admit OF little debate. Mr.. Ca.
brera again assured newspaper men
he was hopeful OF an amicable adjust
ment.
A TO Border Protection.
The question at issue u not the with
drawal OF Pershings troops. They viii
be called back when the American gov-i
ernment Is convinced that II can bs
done without jeopardixihg the safety OF
the border. The more debafable Ques-a
tion liz tho method Of controlling the
border after they have been taken out.
The Mexicans will not be permitted to
place restrictions on the manner In,
which the American government may
protect its border. nor on the manner
in which it may punish marauding ban
dts.
1t was reported here as not improb-
able that delay might be caused by
the desire of the Mexicans to communi-
cate further with Carranxa. II time is
taken for the Mexicans to report the
new situation to their chief and for him
to reply, 1t is possible nothing may be
done until Saturday.
