Additional Information
 Received From Jenkins

 IMPRESSION

Washington, Nov. 25-The cabinet reached no decision on the Mexican situation, accord ing to Secretary Lansing, who presided at the regular weekly meeting today.
 Washington. Nov. 25-Secretary Lansing went into the cabinet meet ing today without a reply to the American note demanding the inn mediate release of William O. Jen- kins. American consular agent at Puebla, and warning the Mexican government that further molestation of the agent would seriously affect the relations between the United States and Mexico.
 Mexico's failure to make a prompt reply apparently has created an un- favorable impression in official cir cles, and the cabinet was expected to again discuss the whole Mexican sit uation. When it first took up the Jenkins case last week, the Presi- dents official family was without all the facts, but since that time much additional information has been re- ceived from both Jenkins himself and the American embassy in Mexico City
