JOINT CONFERENCE
FINALLY DISSOLVED
American Mexican Commission
Fails to Accomplish Pur-
pose of It's Being.

New York, Jan. l5.--rhc Mexican
American joint commission. which
failed 10 effect an adjustment of the
questions at issue between Mexico and
the United States after a series of ccu-
fcrences that began four months ago, was
formally dissolved late to-day.
Secretary of the Interior Lane and the
other members of thc American commits
sion, DR. j. Il. Mott and Judge George
Gray, told the Mcsicans that they had
recommended To PRESIDENT Wilson the dis
patch to- Mexico Of Ambassador Fletcher
and the withdrawal of The American
troops from Chihuahua.
Tho Americans impressed on the Mcxl-
cans that with the dissolution OF the
commission the Mexican problem revert
ed to President Wilson. They were care
ful rot to leave in the minds of the Next
cans the conviction that President Wilson
would accept the recommendation that
an accredited diplomat lie sent to Mexico
and that General PcrSh.ngs forces be
withdrawn, but the intmation that he
would do SO was conveyed In spite of the
Americans care, however. The McxiCans
had little doubt tonight that fun dipio-
matte relations between the two govern
tncntS soon would be re cSta biishcd and
that unless unexpected complications
arise American troops will be removed
from Mexican territory within a few
days. The probability OF such action was
included in the report of the last meeting,
which was tclegraphcd to General Car
rama AZ queretaro.
The last session Of the joint commits
sion continued throughout the latter half
of the day. The American commission
crs explained to- the Mexican representa- =
lives they regarded further discussion by
them az International questions imprac-
ticablo. Twice General Cafranza had re-
fused To ratifY the protocol signed at
Atlantic CITY. y. j., i'm which conditions
for the withdrawal Of troops had been
made and that refusal the Americans
construed mdicativ" of what might
he expected if the conference were con-
tinucd. They were told of the visit Of
the Americans to President Wilson and
If the Presidents sanction Of their
recommendation that the commission I've
dissolved.
It was pointed out to them that the
maintenance Of an ambassador i'm Mexico
would remove cause for the existence OF
commission.
The Mexicans expressed regret that the
conferences had been brought to an end.
but they too admitted that further dis
cussion appeared useless.
