DOUBT FINDING Of

One Scientist Maintains II

NEW YORK, Feb. l5-New York
a-rehAeologlsts who are familiar with
conditions in tho Mexican field are in
olined to doubt dispatches announcing
te discovery Of a giant pyramid near
the city OF Mexico. According TO these
reports n third pyramid has been found
at Teotihuacan greater than those to

Egypt and which have long increased

Or II. ], Spinden. OF the American
Museum OF National History, who has
visited the ruins Of Tsotihuacan, said
Country Is Open.
Il don't see how a greater pyramid
could be discovered In that field. for
the reason that II Is all in an open
country. Apparently Il would be I'M
possible for such a giant pyramid TO be
hidden all these years, The pyramids
Of TeotlhuaCan are probably the best
known Of all the places Of interest in
Mexican archaeology They have been
visited by thousands Of people, as they
are less than 80 miles from the capt
tai. For years the government has
been conducting explorations in these
ruins Much Of interest has been dis
covered, particularly In deep wells,
such as the High Priest we'll. from
which a great deal Of valuable material
was taken.
Il was talking recently with a man
who has just returned from Mexico.
and he informed me that a new and
larger wen than any yet discovered had
been found, It may have been the Of
fetal announcement of the discovery OF
This well which has been distorted into
the discovery Of another pyramid"
But while American scientists are in
clined to doubt the discovery Of ANOTHER

Mexico, but anywhere between the
