U. S. CONTINUES
INVESTIGATION
OF CONSUL CASE
Officials Doubt Whether Mex
leo Complied With Gov
ernment'S Request.
JENKINS PROBES OWN CASE

BY Associated Press:
WASHINGTON. Dec 6.-Develop-
ments saturday left it still in doubt
whether Mexican officials really
complied with the request of the
United states in releasing William
o. Jenkins. the American consular
agent whose Imprisonment at Pue-
bla brought relations between the
two governments to a critical pass.
Press dispatches that the release
was accomplished only after bail
had been furnished were not cover
ed in official advices 70 the state de-
partment, which said that Jenkins
had reported himself entirely ignor-
ant of the manner in which he was
liberated and that he was making
an Investigation on his own account.
L. ;. Awaits Answer.
Upon the answer TO this question
seems to hinge whether sharp dip
lomatic correspondence on the sub
jet is TO be renewed, or the incident
permitted TO pass into history.
Meantime the fact of the release
itself apparently has relieved much
OF the tension of Mexican affairs
both at the state department and
in the senate where uneasiness over
recent developments had produced
a determined movement 10 ask for
a severance of diplomatic relations.
The resolution OF Sen. Fall, republi-
can, New Mexico, requesting a dip
lomatic break, was considered at an
afternoon conference of republican
members of the foreign relations
committee and it was decided not
TO press the proposal for action un-
I'll Pres't Wilson had sent to the
committee the memorandum of ad-
vice he promised Sen. Fall yesterday
at the white house conference.
Opinion Varies.
II was indicated that there was
some difference OF opinion among
the republican senators as to the
expediency of the resolution and
that if the president expressed dis
approval it might not be pressed for
action. The full committee will meet
again Monday.
In trying 10 establish the facts
behind Jenkins release, the state
department is running down a sus-
pected connection between ]. Wal
ter Hansen, said to have furnished
bail for the consular agent. and the
Mexican government. Officials said
Hansen was reported TO have had
some association with Luis Cabrera
Carranza' 5 finance minister, and that
bail might have been forwarded 10
Puebla as the least embarrassing
method by which the Mexico City
officials could extricate themselves
from the situation.
While the departments investi-
cation is proceeding, officials here
still are waiting for Carranza's re
ply 70 the last American request for
jenkins release. Reports some days
ago indicated that il was in prep
aration but tonight it had not been
received at the department
