FOreshadowed, 1t is Thought,
by Limantour
HE MAY SUCCEED CREEL
In the Ministry--Politcal Regeneration
to Be Attempted-Local Abuses
of Administration to Be
Corrected.

Washington, Feb. 22.--The review Of
the political crisis in Mexico, made in
Paris by Senior Mmantour, Mexican
minister Of finance, received significant
attention in various quarters here yes
terday in view of the fact that in
formation has reached here that upon
Senior Limantour's return to Mexico he
will replace Senior Enrique Creel as min
lister Of foreign relations. Indeed, gem
eral readjustment in the Diaz cabinet
is probable when Senior Limantour
reaches the Mexican capital, and it is
also believed that other changes are
contemplated which viii do much to-
ward quelling disorders in the republic.
Senior Limantour, who is well known
in Europe, has, by his consolidating the
Mexican railways, establishing the gold
standard, and managing the national
debt won the confidence of the Mexican
people, and President Diaz is known to
recognize in him champion for political
reorganization of Mexico. The sugges-
lions made by Senior Limantour that
abuses in local administration should be
corrected and people should share more
extensively in the vast land holdings are
regarded here as having a bearing on
the policy that would probably be pur-
sued by Senior Limantour as premier
of the Diaz cabinet. Senior Limantour's
criticism of the United States inter-
probation OF the neutrality laws as too
restricted was believed here to have pro-
ceeded from unfamiliarity with the con-
ditions existing during his ten months
absence from Mexico 1t was pointed
out that the state department and the
department of justice have exercised
every precaution to prevent violations
Of the neutrality statutes.
