SURE OF PEACE IN MEXICO
William G. Lyons Warmly In
dorses Wilson's Course.
TBy Telegraph TO The Tribune. J

Portland, Ore. Nov. s-"President VIII
son and Secretary Bryan will restore
peace and order in Mexico without the
shedding OF blood and without dispatch
ing a soldier or a marine across the Rio
Grande." declared to-day William {.
Lyons, OF Denver. who went to Mexico rs
the representative of the State Depart
ment with Ex-Governor John Lind.
I'm spite OF all the talk to the con-
trary." said Mr.. Lyons, Governor Linz
mission has been entirely successful and
satisfactory to President Wilson. The
President has adopted policy which VIII
require the absolute elimination not only
of Huerta but of every man belonging 10
the Huerta clique. Wilson will not de-
yiate from that programme until the
whole Huerta gang has been wiped OF
the board, and when that has been ac-
comnIished Mexico will have fair cleo
lions and a return 10 a stable form OF
government.
"I WAS with Lind during considerable
norton OF the most stirring times down
there and his report OF affairs and condi-
lions has been largely used In the formu-
lation OF the United States programme.
Won NAV say II as emphatically AS you
Ike that President Wilson will see that
the Monroe Doctrine is not trampled
unon There will be no landing of forces
or military demonstration in Mexico oy
any foreign power

HUERTA UNABLE TO
GET LOAN IN PARIS
Government and Private Bank
ers Disapprove-Cabinet Firm
in Friendship for U. S.
IBy cable to The Tribune. J

Paris, Nov. S.-Interest in the MeXi-
can situation centres in the frantic et-
forts Of General Huerta 10 obtain
funds in Paris at almost any price
efforts that have so far completely
failed. owing to the emphatic disap-
nroval of not only the Minister OF
Finance, but Of all the leading estab-
lishments Of credit and of private bank
ers. In fact, the Barthou Cabinets
firm attitude OF friendly understanding
with Washington expresses the popular
feeling of an Overwhelming majority OF
the French people, and is due in a
large measure to the clear and eX-
houstive reports on the Mexican situa-
ton received almost daily at the Qudi
d'Orsay from Ambassador Jusserand.
Meanwhile the Mexican Constitution
alist committee in Paris, at the head Of
which is Senior Lombardo, formerly
Mexican Minister here. issues state
ments almost amounting to pronuncia-
mentos. according TO which General
Carranza has won victories over the
government forces which, If true, would
indicate Huerta's speedy downfall. ON
the other hand, the Mexican Minister,
Senior de la Barra, maintains a digni-
fed silence, which is only broken by
the statement that all political factions
IN Mexico would unite in common ac-
cord should the United States or any
combination of foreign powers infringe
on the rights of nations by seeking TO
control the internal affairs Of Mexico

According to trustworthy information
received here from Mexico, General
Carranza is neither better nor worse
than Huerta, and would not hesitate to
employ the same medieval and blood
thirsty means as those by which the
nrasent dictator retains his power. In
o,ber words. Carranza and Huerta are
two Of a kind, and both know that no
ideal Parliamentary rule is possible in
Mexico. where nothing was ever ac-
complished by votes and elections. but
o,srvthing by force of character,
which means simply the cut-throat pol
lev of Mexican opportunists.
The French government patiently
awaits events and will take no steps
,,ha.over without amicable consu!ta-
ton with Washington.
