While nothing could be further from

Of that country.

without some Interior motive, biandly

lend to the Huerta regime such moral
support as would be involved in it's

moral reasons. to hold aoof from rec.

seph O. Skinner. OF the District At

dence that another war was brewing.
Reich was a member q! the Little

Willis stabbed him in the back as he
fell.
Detectives searched the neighborhood
after the shooting and found half a
dozen witnesses. Two Of them said
they had seen Reich fall and could
identify his assailants There was no
lack OF gossip. There were some indi-
cations that Wolk and Willis were not
the only men CONNECTED with tho muir
der. hut that at least a dozen others
might be implicated. II seemed 20 ho a
clear case so far as Wolk and Wills
were concerned.

Without Parallel.

The step taken By the diplomats In
Mexico City is considered as nothing
less than astounding. officials of many
years experience can recall nothing
like it in the history of intercourse be-
tween civilized and powerful nations.
Certainly the United States Of America
has never had a precisely similar ex-
perience.
That the European diplomats in Mex
leo City shoulL find il necessary TO de-
part so radically from usual diplomatic
procedure and etiquette is regarded
here as indicating that the situation
has become far more insupportable
than has been made known. a condi-
ton which might easily have arisen
without the avowed hostility of the
present administration Of the Depart
ment Of State to that publicity which
has been customary in the past.
Action by this government may be
forced by the publication of the step
taken by the European diplomats and
by the representations made by Great
Britain. What the action will be re-
mains 10 be seen. The one feasible
course seems TO be the recognition. pos
sibly with some reservations, of the
Huerta government. 1t is the belief
of many here that this should have
been done long since. but the govern
ment in ashington seems never to
have been able to reach decision on
this point. II has been considered, but
without decision, while meantime tho
warning factions in Mexico have gone
on with their atrocities, incidentally
bringing death and ruin to foreigners
from time TO time.

From The Tribune Bureau.l

Washington, July 15.-It is evident
that a crisis mas been reached regard
ing the administration Mexican policy,
and the adoption of some definite
course of Gctlon within a few days
seems inevitable.
The assertion that the European dip
lomats stationed in Mexico City had
taken concerted action in reporting 70
their respective governments that tho
attitude Of the government of the
United States was directly responsible
for the unfortunate conditions which
prevailed IN Mexico is confirmed.
Furthermore, the British government
has made represe ntations to this gov
ernment concerning Mexico, thus for
the first time breaking away from the
steadfast policy Of all Europe in leav-
ing to the United States full control Of
the situation in Mexico.
How far England has gone in i:s
presentation of its views on Mexico Is
not known. The secretary Of State re-
fuses even TO discuss the mattsr. 1t
is believed, however, that England.
possibly acting as the spokesman for
the other interested powers, has asked
the United States what it intends TO
do regarding the intolerable conditions
which prevail in Mexico and which en-
danger the lives and property Of for
eign interests.
