File No. 812.00/864.

[Memorandum—Translation.]

With all due reserves, this embassy informs the Department of State that the Government of Mexico has heard of the miscarriage of certain papers taken from the rebel Martín Casillas at El Paso, Tex., and forwarded to the district attorney of that city.

The said papers are letters from Abraham Gonzales to Soto and Orozco, dated February 11, and communications of Francisco I. Madero to his brother Raul, all bearing on the movement headed by Madero and being organized on American territory.

Embassy of Mexico,
Washington, March 1, 1911.
