MEXICANS FIRE Continued From Page One. hourly. As a result American citizens are preparing to abandon their interests in the Chihuahua district and leave with the troops. They foresee after the departure of the American troops a Mexico once more plunged into a chaos of official plunder and haphazard government without precedent even in this country i of revolution and outlawry. Already there are complaints that the Carranza government had unlawfully seized property,." " American citizens in this district consider that German influence is playing a great part in the direction of Mexican affairs and it is even intimated that the diplomatic differences of the United States and Germany will be used as an excuse for lifting the American expedition back ac ross the' border. English residents of Mexico already have banded into a chartered organization to fight back the German influence, but confess that it has been a losing fight.
