Cn. Carania charges Americana
with bad faith. Aaserts the first 01-
pedlllon did not try to capture bantl-
Its. Of course this charge comes as
an alter thought. People already
know that while the Americans were
on a Villa "hot trull" the Mexicans
aided In concealing their chief and
helping him to elude his pursuers.
The Conntltunllst troops were In
position to have aided In coptuilng
the band of Columbus raiders but
they refused to cc-operste with the
American forces. Carransa's late-
charge Is fully disproved by the con-
duct of his own men. Had the de-
facto government lived up to the
ngreemont to fnlthtul co-opnratlon
the bandits would have boen run
down and the Amerlrnn troops would
have returned to llio United Slates
long ago.
