Mexico City, Sept. 2.
The Mexican. Government today handed Mr. Josephus Daniels, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, a reply to the second Note sent by Mr. Cordell Hull, U.S. Secretary of State protesting the expropriation of American farm lands, but the contents were not released for publication.
The text of the reply will be confidential until Monday, it was announced.
The reply, it was widely believed, rejects the American demand that the Mexican Government immediately suspend the further expropriation of American farm lands pending investigation of the policy and plans for arbitration.—United Press.
