Secretary of State Bryan Will Confer With Com
 mittee Today.
TALKS WITH WILSON
Mediation in Civil War Country Not Feasible and Will Be lmme-
 diately Rejected.

Washington, July 25-President Wilson has put the Mexican problem squarely up to Congress for the first time since the cival war in that country began.
 Mediation will assuredly be offered to the contending factions in Mexico. but it is fore-doomed to rejection by Huerta, CarranZa and the leaders of all other revolutionary parties. Every member of the Foreign Relations Committee says he fears that in- tervention is inevitable
 One of the members of this Com mittee says in most significant lan- guage that no European powers will be allowed" to intervene in Mexico, indicating that the President by means of Congress to whom he has shifted the responsibility, would stand for American intervention only.
 These are the important and salient developments of the day on the Mex ican question:, which is expressing the State Department, Congress and the army and navy.
 Secretary of State Bryan returned to Washington today and was immed- lately sent for by the President to come to the White House for a con- ference. There was no cabinet meet ing, and the President, after hearing what Mf. Bryan had to repeat, let him go and called him back again to the White House later in the day when he probably had information that, he lacked at the first meeting with the President.
 Secretary Bryan will hereafter, for some time at least, have great deal to do at the State Department and White House.
 One of the official statements made today was that the War Department gets it's news now from the State De- | partment and it later developed that every official in command of ship in or near Mexican waters were send ing detailed reports on military con- dltions in the distracted republic.
 These reports from consuls, navy officers on the border and from pri- vate sources all go to the State De- partmeat where they later find their way to the White House on demand.
 The President and Secretary of State Bryan expect to get the views pf Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson pm his arrival here. And with this nformation, Secretary Bryan is to % before the Foreign Relations Con- nlttee tomorrow, ostensibly to dls- uss Nicaragua, but really to be questioned by senators as to the real atest conditions in Mexico.
 Secretary Bryan will be in position pmorrow to say directly to: the Com plttee that mediation will not be ac- eptable either to Huerta or to Car anza.

NOW, URGES BR|TTEN
Emergency Appropriation To Be
Asked by New Member OF
Naval Committee.
TO PUT HOUSE ON RECORD
Proposed New Programme Is
for Three Ships a Year for
Two Years and There
after Two.

Washington July 6.-"The United States
is right now face TO face with great
emergency, i'm so far as her programme
for battleship construction is concerned.
SO great is that emergency that | intend
to move, at the first regular meeting OF
the Committee on Naval Affairs, that a
resolution be >at once reported TO the
House providing for an emergency appro-
priation sufficiently large to make it pos
sible to begin the construction Of three
dreadnoughts this year"
Such is the statement issued to the
Navy League of the United States by
Fred A. Britten. Representative from
Chicago and new member Of the Commit
tee on Naval Affairs. That committee as
at present constituted has never gone on
record with relation 10 It's stand on naval
construction. Mr. Britten figures that his
motion will at least have the result OF
getting the committee, and possibly Con-
gress, on record as TO what 1t intends to
do I'm relation &c the maintenance of an
adequate navy.
The Republicans in Congress have ia
tleships a year, and the Democratic plat
form adopted at Baltimore pledged that
party to the maintenance of an adequate
navy. Secretary Daniels has recently
urged that each of the three big navy
yards should at all times have dread
nought I'm course of construction.
This country pretty we'll realizes"
continued Mr.. Britten, that it must
maintain a building programme Of at
least two battleships a year. Because Of
the action OF the last Congress in provid-
ing for but one battleship, this pro-
gramme is now two ships in arrears We
should therefore provide for three dread
noughts a year for two years and for
two each year thereafter. These dread
noughts must. Of course, be accompanied
by the proper number of cruisers, tor
pedo boat destroyers and submarines.
For tire last decade this country has
been relying upon, policy Of interna-
tional peace, looking to disarmament
that has gradually been putting us at an
ever greater disadvantage. seeing that
other nations are evincing no inclination
to dispense with or curtail their prepara-
tons for war. For instance, the United
States has now in process OF building
warship tonnage 20 the amount OF l25, 23S
tons. Against this Great Britain has In
process OF building warship tonnage
amounting TO 1880 tons. Germany 1885,
g75 tons, France 1880 tons. Japan 49,
1866 tons. Russia 1921 tons and little
Italy l9l, 473 tons.
The strength Of a navy is measured
largely By the number OF capital or
all big-gun ships. including dreadnoughts
and battle cruisers. Viewed from this
standpoint the present and future stand
ing OF the nations Is indicated by the fol-
lowing table:

Glenn Organ Hints at Attempt
to Rlackmail Manufacturers.

Chicago. July 6.-Under the title Colo

facturers' News" Of Chicago, the organ
of John NJ. Glenn, secretary of the Hi
nois Manufacturers Association comes
out in defence of the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers, charged by Null
hall with lobbying at Washington. 'Ihe
Manufacturers News" says, in part
Presumably the National Association
of Manufacturers was given the alterna-
tive of publication of series Of sensa-
tional newspaper articles by Colonel Mar
tin NJ Mulhan. discharged employe, or
putting the colonel back on the payroll.
IF such was the case. Il is to the credit
OF the association that its officials would
not submit to blackmail. The association
undoubtedly took the position that II had
done nothing reprehensble-that II had
a right to protect the interests OF its
members in national legislation.
The association. rather than restore
an untrustworthy employe to a position
he has abused, preferred to let the colonel
tell what he would Of its affairs. The
manufacturers Of this country have just
as much right to maintain paid officials
in Washington TO look after their inter
ests as the labor trust has the right 70
maintain paid officials In Washington.
The manufacturers Of this country have
the right to vote; they have the right to
influence others TO vote; they have the
right TO work against legislator who Is
their enemy.
at is stated by the National Associa-
ton OF Manufacturers that Mulhall CON
tinued to represent that he was acting
as the agent Of the association long after
he had been dismissed. and that most OF
the acts that formed the basis Of his con-
fessions occurred when he was not acting
under authority OF the association. n
man Of his character undoubtedly did
many things upon his individual respon-
sibility that officers of the association
would not have countenanced had they
known OF them They probably parted
with him on that account.
THE statement also is made that the
association has never, by the use oil
money. influence or suggestion, opposed
anv child labor law, compulsory educa-
ton law or other laws to better the con-
dition Of working women, as set forth In
the Mulhall statement, but has, on the
contrary, been a recognized leader In the
movement for the prevention and com
pensation of work accidents, vocational
training, Industrial betterment and the
extension and upbuilding OF foreign com
merce."
