NOT RECOGNIZED,
BUT IS SUPPORTED
GOVERNMENT AT WASHINGTON IS
ANXIOUS FOR SOME ONE TO
RULE IN MEXICO.
HUERTA IS IN POWER
AMBASSADOR WILSON HAS REC
osrMESDED HIS RECOGNITION
AT EARLY DATE AND is
BACKED UP.

WASHINGTON, Eeb, 25.-Though
not yet recognized by the United
States. the Huerta government IN
Mexico today enjoys the strong sup
port of the Washington government.
That 1t has this support Is not be-
cause OF any particular Partially for
General Huerta, put because thu pro-
yisional government, of which he is
the president, is now the only estab-
lished authority in Mexico, and the
sole quarter to which the United
States can look for protection for
American life and property.
So urgently is such protection de-
sired by the United States government
that 1t is ready to extend It's best
wishes to any authority which can
keep the peace in Mexico Conse-
quentIy it is earnestly hoped by the
present administration in Washing
ton that the Huerta government will
prove itself equal to the occasion. The
sooner Ii can establish itself in ac-
tuai control of Mexico the better will
the officials of the Taft administra-
ton be pleased. Meanwhile, these
officials are disposed to give the Huerta
government its moral support ana
friendly sympathy.
Wilson Statement Not Authorized.
The statement given out by Ambas-
sador Wilson, in Mexico City last
night was entirely on his own initia-
tive, and without instructions from
the state department. The exceeding
~ friendly tone OF the ambassador
statement, which expressed his belief
that the provisional governeFnnt in
Mexico was innocent Of the charge
that IL had instigated the killing of
Madero and Suarez, caused some sur
prise here today in unofficial quarters,
and the ambassadors action was criti-
cised as hasty and ill-advised.
At the State department, however.
there was shown a disposition to ex
cuse him for making q statement 30
friendly to the stiM unrecoguiged gov
eminent. and quite contrary TO the
public opinion In the United States. II

Emilio Madero, another brother of

during the evening at Monterey. three

Emilio Madero was regarded by the
