File No. 312.51/73.

Special Agent Canova to the Secretary of State.

[Telegram—Extract.]

Referring your July 22, 3 p.m., shall I go to Zacatecas? General Natera returns from Tampico to-morrow night and I can make trip with him. Nothing definite can be accomplished at Zacatecas until he returns. Please advise me here. Carranza has already recommended me highly to Natera. Fabela informs me by wire from Tampico that Sanchez de la Vega, acting Governor of Zacatecas, has been instructed to assist me in every possible manner.

Canova
