(Continued from Pago Ono.) jruvernmcnl December 11 in answer to a sharp note which was sent by President Pres-ident Taft to President Madero'on Sep. tcmbcr 15. In tho September nolo President Taft demanded punishment for the murderers of Americans In Mexico and sent a long list of specific" outrages. In addition, demand de-mand was mado for Indemnity for the loss of American llfo and property, but cmphusla was placed on the fact that those who had slain Americans had jronc unpunished and that the American government gov-ernment should act. The Mexican replv practlcaJly stales that tho Americans killed In Mexico deserved de-served their fate and that their treatment treat-ment was no worse than that accorded Mexicans In he United States. The demand for Indemnity for the American lives and property destroyed In Mexico Is ignored In the Mexican reply. Mndcro admits that he can neither restore re-store order nor protect Americans and evades the question of damages for losses caused by his failure to establish tranquillity. tran-quillity. So disturbed was President Taft and Sccrctnry Knox by tho tone of tho Mexican Mexi-can communication that an immediate blockade of Mexican ports was at first contemplated. It wok finally decided first to take tho milder course and later, If necessary, to lift tho embargo on the entrance en-trance of arms into Mexico, thus forcing tho downfall of lho Madoro government. It Is hoped that Madcro will meet the domands of this country or that the crisis will develop a new president strong enough to rcitoro order in the distressed republic, and with a sonso of national honor and obligations strong enough to lnsuro attention to tho domands of tho United States. |
