.MEX|CO'S ANSWER
TO FINAL WARNING
PROBABLY DUE SOON
Message Has Been Received
by Mexican Embassy and
Was Being DECIDED
Yesterday


Wnshington, November 23----The
answer OF the Mexican government
to the sharp note demanding the
immediate release of William o.
Jenkins, American consular agent
mt PuebIa, probably will be deiiv-
cred to the state department to-
morrow.
long dispatch bearing on the Jen-
kins case, it was learned tonight, has
been received at the Mexican embassy
and was being decided today for pre-
sentation to the government.
While authoritative Information as
to the attitude of the Mexican govern
ment was lacking, all indications here
pointed to a technical refusal to or
der the release of jenkins. Since his
arrest, it was learned, additional
charges against the American official
have been formulated, based upon al
legged evidence that he actively assisted
persons in rebelling against the Car
rama government. Payment of large
sum of money to the rebels which was
used by them to purchase munitions
ers are said to be specific counts
in the new indictments.
What was regarded as a hint of Mex
ico's position in the Jenkins case, was
noted in an article published by the
Mexican newspaper Excelsior copy OF
which reached Washington today. The
paper stated specifically that jenkins
second arrest, was based upon charges
that he actively assisted the rebels.
The certain sum of money which
Jenkins is accused of delivering to
fhe rebels, consisted OF. the 800 pesos
he was compelled to pay as ransom
to FREDERICK Cordoba, the. rebel, whose
forces kidnapped him.
The collision charge is based upor
the fact that Jenkins agreed TO pay the
rebel leader the ransom in order te
save his life and gain his liberty
Contrary to custom in Mexican
courts, the proceedings in the Jenkins
case on the occasion of his second ar
rest were marked with the utmost Sc
crecy. Jenkins was summoned to cour'
where he was placed under arrest. His
plea for bail was refused by Judge
gonzales Franco ION account of the
gravity of the offense," in every par
ticuiar the proceedings were secret ane
court attaches were warned that they
would be dismi ssed and otherwise pun
ished il any facts relating to the case
reached the public.
Officials here regard the nature o.
the new charges. against Jenkins a.

can government to take the case GU
