comment officially yesterday on the telegram from the Mexican government It was pointed out unofficially however that It was ientireiy improvable that the American government would enter into an academic discussion with Mexico at this time as to the propriety of the sending of Huntington Wilsons note to Orozoo the rebel leader as well as to the American consuls throughout the Mexican

any answer is returned It cannot be said that Minister Caleros statement caused surprise nor has it modified the dlplo jmatlc situation Tl The note is regarded rather as an at tempt to relieve the Mexican government from financial liability for damages in flicted upon foreigners by the rebels than as an evidence of resentment against the actions of the State Department here In the opinion of
