Congress to Have All Details of Mexican Troubles
 Laid Before It.
HUERTA WEAKENING
Federal Soldiers Are Joining Rey0lu. tiOnists and Huerta Unable to
 Get Money From Europe. ......

Washington, Aug 22-Announce- ment was made at the White House that there will be no recession from the demands made upon President from this government, transmitted to Special Envoy Lind.
 The President will state in his message to Congress his attitude on the whole Mexican situation and it is announced that the message will be equally for the benifit of the American people and the foreign nations.
 Dispatches received today from Lind stated that the general situation has improved. Mr. Lind does not specify the particular phases of the improvement, but it is understood that he and Huerta have been inn pressed by the news current in Mexico that Huerta's soldiers are clamoring for pay, that some of them nave SOIe over at vera CIuL lO Lllc revolutionists and that Huerta is no longer able to get loans in Europe.
 The President had it made known tonight that he does not expect to have advance copies of his message for the press for the reason that he will probably be working up to the last moment before taking 1t to Con- gross. He wants the message to be up to date"
 The question as to whether he shall make any new recommenda- tions to Congress is apparently not settled in the Presidents mind It is admitted officially however, that such recommendations will be made, but they will depend in large degree on some important developments that may occur between now and next Tuesday.
 The president himself has describ- ed his Instructions to MT. Lind as his definite program" for the settle ment of the troublee in Mexico.

Sherbroke, Que, Aug. 22.--- "EduCated' Roger Thompson, whose genius and skill as chauf- feur insured the safe escape of Harry K. Thaw from the Mattea- wan State Asylum for the Crimin- al Insane last Sunday morning, who crossed the Canadian border with Thaw, and the sphynX of the
 present situation, sent this mes
 sage to his jail mate, Thaw to-
 night:

Sherbrooke, Que, Aug 22.-"Tell them to release Barnum. He is in nocent of any attempt to aid me to escape. I wouldn't have harm come to that poor old fellow for anything in l the world"
 This was the message sent out by Thaw today when he learned that Howard H. Barnum, guardian of the gate through which the slayer of Stanford White made his dash for l- berty last Sunday morning, is in a like position because of the charge brought against him of conniviEg at the escape.
 "I have wired to my attorney at Newburgh to defend Barnum and do everything possible for him." said Thaw
 eyes were glaring and his manner nervous. He has decided that the real story of his present predica- ment cannot be told until Jerome's address to the jury at the 1906 trial be printed in full When told that this is not of news value, he pounds up the table with his fist, begins to swear and then begs his auditors pardon.
 He summoned his attorneys to the jail upon every possible protest and also delivered many messages to two voluminous notes upon his case and instruct his counsel, all of whom are urgent advocates upon points of Canadian jurisprudence.
 As result of Thaw's actions one of his counsel is said tonight to be on the point of withdrawing from the case.
 "I am fully conversant with every possibility of the situation," said Thaw to the International News Ser vice correspondent. "I shall go free eventually, though it may take some time. I do not consider that it will be a defeat if I am deported to New Hampshire or Vermont, but l hope first to force the immigration and New York state authorities to prove that I am insane"
 Mir. Kennedy, one of Thaw's coun- sel was elated to know that the hur- ried visit of w. L. Shurtleff, of Thaw's counsel, to 'Ottowa, had been unavail- ing. Mir. Shurtleff conferred win c. J. Doherty, minister of justice and acting minister of the interior and sought to receive an assurance that Thaw if deported will be taken across the border of either New Hampshire or Vermont.
 Although he would not discuss this visit Mir. Shurtleff would not deny that the highest immigration authori- ties in the Dominion had refused to give him the, assurance asked. That the immigration officials wished to be informed as to Thaw's present condition was shown today when they commissioned Dr. Joseph Noel to examine Thaw.
 "In my opinion Thaw is sane," pr. Noel said after the examination.
 "This verdict does not worry me in the least" was the prompt statement of Deputy Attorney General Kennedy.

President Wilson will not appoint his

positively terrifying.
1t was O'Clock, and the parson
sat smoking before his open fire. BY
way of keeping off the draughts he
had pulled a faded, frayed- at-the-

was that IL produced a rather mean

the parson recognized as strains from

"Lohengrin." He wound II vigor-

LONDON, March 27.-There was
tumult in the house Of commons yes

unsuccessful attempt by the opposition
to get a snap division in the commit

Der for Armagh, and Sir A Markham,
a liberal from the Pottery district.
The former was suspended for the
remainder Of the session unless the
house votes to reinstate him because
Of his defiance of the speaker. Sir
Markham was suspended for one

Charles r, G. Masterman, the
under secretary to the home office,
who had charge Of the bill. irritated
the opposition by declaring parenthe-

are some things too discreditable even

This phrase was greeted with angry
cries Of withdraw and "Speculating
