The US came to know about the Zimmerman telegram because of Britain.
British spies had broken German codes, and discovered the telegram when it was sent. However, the British didn't want to immediately reveal it. There were two big reasons for this. First, the Germans were borrowing American telegraph cables; the British were secretly tapping those cables and spying on the US and Germany. Secondly, the British had broken German codes; they didn't want Germany to find out and change their codes.
So the British engineered a complicated raid to make it look like they stole the telegram from a telegraph office in Mexico. This way, they would not upset the Americans nor would the Germans know that their codes were compromised.
With the cover story in place, the British informed the US government about the telegram.
