I Mexico has been an unfortunate place for our cause. Veil 1'apen and Boy-ISd, ! as well as Admiral von Kokhardt, wore not instructed properly as to what they should do in that country. The rep- rcsentativos of our Fatherland In ;he North American Continent were com - pelled to fall back upon their own re- sources, and, oi course, without proper communications between the Foreign Office and the outside world It was humanly Impossible for them to do much on their own initiative. HAD MAUK MISTAKE OP HACK I.\f; WRO.Vf; FACTION Von Papen and Boy-Kd, however, hat1 already too much to do In our cause in tho United Stales Naturally, they could not undertake anything in Mex- j ico. And, besides, the Mexicans did not like us. Our former Foreign Minister had made several tactically wrong moves. He had supported the ifuerta element against both Carranza and Vil¬ la (thirse two chiefs were. In thoHo days, fighting together). So, notwith- standing the fact that they were now lighting each other, the two mutually distrusted us. Von Papen had rna«Wj j several secret visits to Mexico during his attache days in the American cap- ital; he had interviewed many Mexl- can leaders, but ho was told that tho ; Mexicans hail not yet forgotten tho Dresden affair. I notice that (he countess is still puK/.led," said Baron Stelnhauer. "in a few words, this Is what we are plan¬ ning: You must try to Induce the Mexican authorities to become a party our treaty, if they do not refuse point black, but listen favorably, you will keen these documents. At a cer- tain time our correspondence with the Mexican Foreign Office will be made public. America will suspect Mexico. The Japanese menace would stare America in the face. America would hesitate before it makes up its mind to send her untrained men to France. Japan would he regarded with tenso .suspicion. But. countess, on the other hand, should you be successful in per¬ suading either President Carranza or General Villa or any or.e of their subordinates to sign the documents, then you have done the greatest ser¬ vice yet to your Fatherland.

In nn atmosphere In which it was hardly possible to breathe. I lived in constant drfRd by day and night, dread induced by the fear of attack, by the submerging* and risings, the pitching and tossings of that terrible little boat. When T landed at last In a little port in the CSulf of Mexico, 1 was more dead than alive; I had no longer tho wish to live, a representative of our ministry staff m**t me with two women servants, who were in his confidence. The** women took me to a hospital kept by a religious order, and there. in two weeks. . I was nursed back lif<» again. No questions were ask^d me. and when I wa.s lit to resume niv travel I was allowed to depart with- out demur. And so I came bv train to Mexico City. 1 liis affair, that they speak of so bitterly, happened when the com- mander ot our cruiser Dresden, th»n stationed in the Mexican waters. I offered the hospitality of his ship to i'risid'-nt ITuerta, who vas driven out of his country by the combined force* of Carranra and Villa Mexicans every¬ where were saying that they would never forgivo Germany for that insult to the Constitutionalists. Oti'" 1" oreli;n Office has already sp^nt several million-- of marks in Mexico, but outside r.f a few Mexican business men and a few officers in the Carranza army, they could not make any Im¬ pression on the people. Our foreign secret service department had also spent much money to enlist the sup- port of Mexican newspapers on our side, but there were very few papers in that country, and th/»so were per¬ sonal organs and could not be con¬ verted to us. And besides, almost every one who knew how to rend and write in Mexico was a friend of France. The bet I or classes knew French and liked the French kultur better than ours. So the situation seemed almost hopeless. UISl.IKED GERMANS. RUT HATED TI1E AMERICANS But there was one hope. Although the Mexicans dislikerl us, they hated the Americans, and there were thou¬ sands of Mexicans who would like to drive every Englishman out of Mexico. The Americans owned all the Mexican mines and railroads, while the Engiis i- men owned their oil wells. Therefore, if tact fully handled, the Mexicans How to rrovent It From Grow¬ ing Gray.

already too much to do In our causein tho United Stales Naturally, theycould not undertake anything in Mex-

He had supported the ifuertaelement against both Carranza and Vil¬la (thirse two chiefs were. In thoHodays, fighting together). So, notwith-standing the fact that they were nowlighting each other, the two mutuallydistrusted us. Von Papen had rna«Wj
