washington, Aug. 23.-President
Wilson will either send or read mes
sage to congress on Monday advising
It that negotiations with President
Huerta are temporarily at an end, and
transmitting to it the details Of our pro.
posals to President HuertaS and his
reply rejecting them.
The purpose of the congressional
message, which he determined upon
is not merely to transmit the
information to congress, but to give
to the entire world the details OF our
negotiations with President Huerta. in
the confident hope that President VIII
sons course will be supported by pop
ular opinion both here and abroad.
This, it Is believed, may result in In
ducing the foreign powers that have
recognized President Huerta to bring
influence to bear upon him which may
make him more amenable to later pro-
posals. \. 5s5{t n 1$S3

for President Wilson's refusal to rec
ognize the Huerta administration.

reply to President Huerta's charge
that the American congress and the
American people are not behind Presi-
dent Wilson, Repu blicans and Demo
Gratis alike put into the record their
heartiest support Of the administra-
tons Mexican course, and President
Wilson was greatly gratified by this
spontaneous outburst Of oratory.
Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania in.

ing the president to send troops into
Mexico -'for police purposes" but spe-
officially declaring that this was not to
be an act hostile to Mexico, and an.
other appropriating $25,O00,000 for
this purpose. Both resolutions went
over until next week. g>gs
