Washington, Fob. 18.?President
Wilson sent to the Senate yesterday
afternoon his response to the Fall res
olution, adopted last month, requesting
him to report on facts leading up
to recognition by the Unuited States'
of the do facto government of Mex; I
co headed by General Vcnustiano Car 1
ranza. It was in the form of a long ]
letter from Secretary Lansing sum- <
marizing the events which preceded j
recognition, and transmitting a great (
volume of data, including a list of 15y t
Americans killed in Mexico and along <
the border during the past six years. $
'i'iie President through Mr. Lansing j
declined to comply with that part of j
the Fall resolution asking for diplo- r
malic and consular reports on politi- s
eal conditions and events in Mexico, jt
The senate was informed that it was't
not compatible with public interest to c
furnish this correspondence inasmuch j(
as it was of a highly confidential na- n
ture and submitted to consular offi-1 a
eors of the United States, by diplo- jt
matic or consular officers of other|i<
governments and by other persons in n
Mexico.
As to the stability cf Carranza to
fulfill his promises to protect foreign t<
lives and property, Mr. Lansing said;r(
that under all the circumstances the
de facto government, which at the 0
time of recognition controlled more 0
than 75 per cent of Mexico's terri- tl
tory, was affording reasonably ade-|C<
quate protection to the lives and prep
ffvtj' AT?7vican citizens.
The data disclosed that 70 Ameri-.li
vans wove killed in Mexico in the ti
years 1015, 1914 and 1915 as compar- fi
ed with 47 in the three preceding and ir
that 20 civilian Americans and 10 f<
soldiers were killed on American soil c
in the last three years as a result of d
tronhles.
When the report was received Scr. |fl
ator Stone, chairman of the foreig \
relations committee, moved that it lie |
on the table and be printed as a pub- I
lie document. He made no comment ii
on its conte ts. Senator Fall expr: I
ed himself as disappointed because'*
the President had not included the ^
confidential correspondence .
The respone to the resolution is cx- j
pec ted to stir up a new discussion of g
the Mexican incident in the Senate E
and to bring a vote on the nomination'
of Henry Prather Fletcher as ambas-l"
sador to Mexico. Senator Fall intro-.l
<luc.ed his resolution when the nomin- J c
ation was sent in. j ?
Republican members of the foreign' ?
'relations committee held that the Sen \ *
2 1 I
ate should not consent to sending an:
ambassador to Mexico until it was J J
thoroughly informed as to the char-!'
actor of the government which he 1
"was to be accredited . In view of the j
.report is probable that the foreign
relations committee will pass on Mr. ij
Fletcher's nomination next Wedncs ,
clay .
Included in the documents sent t.? i
the Senate were copies of President)
Wilson's appeal to the Mexican factions
last .lure urging them to get together;
data regarding the Pan-America
conference which resulted ultimately
in the recognition of Carranza;
a copy of the appeal of the factions
issued by the Pan-American
conference, correspondence between i
the State Department and Carranzaj;
communications from Eliseo Arrc-J
<londo, the Mexican ambassador-designate
to the United States, relative!
to guarantees of protection to Americans
and other foreigners; indemni-1
ties and "individaul freedom of wor-.
ship according to every one's con-',
science;" copies of telegrams regarding
War Department operations during
border troubles last summer, and
vA.,nvto fltr? tflkinir Jim! AV?PUftt.ion
of Vera Cruz and many other subjects.
The correspondence also included a
letter from former Secretary Garrison
to Secretary Lansing dated January
26, 1916, containing a general report
of the army adorations to suppress
border uprisings. last fall. In
this letter Secretary Garrison said:
