WASHINGTON, u. e., Aug. 2S.-
This was the Mexican situation In

the Mexican election in October. BY
some that was interpreted as a con-

proposal for an exchange Of arnbaEsa-
dors was, however. Interpreted by
many ofIicials as a. practical Iteration
OF the original stand OF the Huerta
government.
Senior Ganboa, Mexican minister of
foreign affairs, pointed out that the
demand of the United States for the
elimination of Huerta would be met
by provision of the Mexican consti-
