Washington March 12 The United States government will continue to insist on obtaining from General Carranza and the Mexican constitutionalists information concerning the welfare of all foreigners in Mexico and will not relax its energy in using its good offices for their protection. A communication from Secretary Bryan to American Consul Kirapichut Nogales presented the information to Carranza. Bryan did not publicize a reply and did not answer Carranza's notes on the Benton case, but indicated the wish of the U S to protect a Spanish citizen at the request of the Spanish ambassador. Constitutionalists may respond with the requested information, though exact attitude remains unknown. Habeas corpus notices to release Mexican federal prisoners at Fort Bliss reached the war department via General Bliss at San Antonio. Secretary Garrison was not reached.
