Carranza Rejects Communications With Non Accredited Nations
Diplomatic reports from Washington say Carranza warned he would not receive messages or conduct business with foreign governments lacking accredited agents in Vera Cruz. The move would cut off formal ties with many nations, though officials note Consul Silliman remains considered properly accredited. No confirmation from Carranza’s agents in Washington, as Mexico City remains cut off and battles near Pachuca loom between Villa and Carranza factions. The State Department forwarded a note urging adherence to the Scott agreement on border operations to protect American lives.
