SAYS MEXICAN
SITUATION IS
NOT CRITICAL
Close Observers Also Declare
There is No Necessity
for Intervention
PRESIDENT MEETS THE
AMBASSADOR TODAY
BY JOHN EDWIN NEVIN.
;taff Correspondent of the United
Press.

otdu 0OlitnpDHutll VI INC Onlbcu
Press.
WASHINGTON, July 2S.-There is
10 more necessity for Intervention
by force in Mexican affairs today
than there was a month ago. The
situation continues serious, but is
still far from critical. It was made
very plain today from an official
source that President Wilson believes
much of the present agitation is due
to careful newspaper manipulation.
Certain newspapers and persons
whose relatives are In the troubled
zone, are alone responsible. for the
increased feeling Of apprehension.
And the President, It can be stated on
unquestioned authority, intends con-
tinuing his investigation in a big
brotherly" manner, which has not
yet taken into consideration force
Of arms
On the even of his conference with
Ambassador Wilson, the President to-
day was said to be far from pessimis-
tic on Mexican affairs. The report
that he was considering a dual plan
which the ambassador had already
placed in his hands was characterized
at the executive Offices as absurd. Alb
solutely no recommendation is con-
tanned in the vOluminous report die
tated by the ambassador on Saturday.
1t deals with conditions, not remedies.
The latter phase is to furnish the
groundwork for this afternoons con-
ference which is expected to be
lengthy and may extend over into to-
morrow. But it was made very plain
TO the conference that the President
had not been told that Intervention or
recognition was the only solution Of
the Mexican situation.
irresponsible talk on part of per-
sons high in authority and the at
ltributing to the President by a news
agency of views ne did not entertain
are the only things which have COM
plicated the Mexican situation so far
as the administration is concerned.
There is little doubt that reports Of
the recent debate in the Senate and
House aggravated certain factions in
Mexico This today makes the prob
lem Of American assistarur IN resfOr-
ing peace to the troubled territory
more dificult And. in the opinion
of the President and his closest ad-
visors. this is the only thing which
has changed the Mexican situation in
a month.
The President himself will consider
any remedy that may be suggested
either by Ambassador Wilson or any
one who has actual knowledge Of what
has been going on in the southern re-
public His information has been very
conflicting. The ambassador has
made It plain that the Huerta govern
ment was in good shape i'm the south.
On this point the other confidential re-
ports agree.
The ambassador insists that the
revolutionary movements in the south
we're independent OF cath other and
that the tactics have been those of
robbers and not Of patriots. In part

FISH GOOD TO
SOME, BAD TO
OTHERS; STUMPED

The case against Arthur Quincy and
Ollie Veal charged with selling fish un-
wholesome for food in violation of a
city health ordinance, was held under
consideration by Judge Churchman in
City Court today until Thursday morn
ing.
The evidence offered was very conflict
ing. Meat Inspector Samuel Ford tes-
titled that he caused the arrest of the
defendant on last Friday Tor selling the
fish from a wagon in the vicinity of Wa
waset. jackson street and Delaware ave
nue.. He said the fish rwere butter fish,
that the defendants had no ice on them
and they smelled badly. Some of the
fish, Mr.. Ford said, were in the bottom
of the wagon and when he had them
dumped into a garbage cart the scales
came Off them.
Mrs Charles b. Slocomb, of No.
zoos Wawaset street, who caused the
arrest OF the men said that she
bought the fish from the men and
that when she attempted to clean
them she found them to be green in
side and that they smelled badly. She
told the boys she would not take the
fish and to give her back her money.
One of them took the fish but they
did not bring back the money until
/ Mr.. Ford brought them to her door
lsome time later
Mrs. Irene Webb also bought some
of the FISH and found them to be
/ spoiled The men took these fish
back but did not return the purchase
money until Mr.. Ford brought them
to her house.
Police Officer Sherry testified that
the fish were in bad condition when
he saw them and that here was no
ice on them.
Edward Green, for whom the bows
worked. said he bought the fish
Thursday afternoon and that ice had
been packed on them from the time
he bought them until they were put
in the wagon. They were well iced
at that time.
Mrs. Ellen Haggerty. Mrs. Nellie
Masten. Mrs. Maggie Willbanks, Mrs.
Ruth Gamble. Mrs. Harriet Hender-
son and Eveline Mathewson, all tes-
tilted that they purchased fish from
the defendants early in the morning
and cooked them From all accounts
the fish were in excellent condition.
ollie Veal testified that Mr. Ford
looked at only three fish and then
condemned the lot He said there
was ice in the barrel and that the
fish were not dry Mr.. Ford said
he inspected the fish thoroughly
