MEXICO SENDS
ENVOY TO
u. s.
MANUEL De zAMAC0NA LEAVES
VERA CRUZ FOR WASHINGTON
SUPPOSEDLY TO RENEW NEGO.
TIATI0NS WITH The AMERICAN
GOVERNMENT.
MEXICO SEEMS TO Be
YIELDING TO is. DEMAND

Washington. D. G., Sept. manuel
de Zamacona, former Mexican ambas-
sador to the United States and until
recently financial agent for the MeXi-
can government in London, will en-
deavor to carry forward in Washing
ton the negotiations between the
Huerta administration and the United
tionary problem.
Zamacona's object is primarily to
continue the negotiations begun with
John Lind, but his ultimate object is
the loan which the United States de-
clared in its second note it would en-
courage American bankers to float if
the Huerta government accepted the
chief American proposals.
The administration here was sound
ed out as to the mission of Senor Ia
macona and had not yet given its an
swer when the latter started from
Vera Cruz yesterday.
There seemed to be little doubt to-
day in official circles that the Wash
ington administration would receive
Iamacona under certain conditions as
he is well known here and regarded
as one Of the ablest of MeXicans. Ia
macona's affiliations, however, have
been with the financial instead Of the
diplomatic side of the Mexican gov
ernment
Some of the constitutionalsts in
Washington look upon him as the
agent of the "Cientifco" or financial
group that for a long time ruled Mexi-
cos affairs. AS he has been so little
a participant i'll Mexican politics be-
cause Of his long absence abroad 9th
ers are inclined to regard him as of a
ncn-participant disposition toward the
present situation.
The coming of Zamacona produced
an optimistic effect in official circles.
The offer OF encouragement for loan
to Mexico had been conditioned on
the acceptance of the chief proposals
made by the United States. The ap-
parent decision of Huerta to send Ia
macona before word was received
from Washington was taken to mean
today that the Huerta government
had, in effect accepted the American
stipulation that Huerta should not be
a candidate for election, Though
there is no assurance on record posi-
lively excluding Huerta from the presi-
dental contest, the Washington gov
ernment is taking it for granted that
he will not run and is likely to encour-
age a loan under conditions that will
further the effort to bring about a
cessation of hostilities and a constitu!
tional election. The White House has
taken the position also with respect to
the loan that if Mexico accepted the
American proposals for the establish
ment of peace in the southern repub-
lie, it was incumbent on the United
States in return to assist the financial
of the country.
