File No. 812.00/1414.
The American Ambassador to the Secretary of State.
[Telegram—Paraphrase.]
Mexico, April 20,
1911—11 p.m.
By note received to-day the Mexican Government notifies me that out of respect for truth and justice it wishes you to consider as not included in its reply to the embassy’s note of April 15 the paragragh that refers to the crossing of the boundary line by American officers and their causing the Federal troops to cease fighting, since later and official information “tends to show that Capt. Guajot did not cross the boundary line to cause the garrison to surrender.”
Wilson.
