The Narrative Is Delivered in
Executive Session.
HIS PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS
Ambassador Permitted to Tell
1t in His Own Way.
Injunction of Secrecy i
Placed on All Listeners.

Washington, July 20.-Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson conferred with the
senate foreign relations committee in
executive session today, giving his
views on the Mexican situation. 1t was
evident that Senato tors had been keenly
looking forward to first hand infor-
nation from the ambassador. The con-
ference began promptly at the hour
set secretary Bryan was not present.
Ambassador Wilson began with a
chronological recital of his personal
observations of the stirring events in
Mexico, beginning at the abdication of
PorfriO Diaz and spoke at length of
the downfall of Madero and the rise
of Huerta. The committee was dis
posed to let the ambassador tell his
story in his own way and for more
than two hours he continued an al
most unbrOken narrative, interrupted
only occasionally by a question from
some senator.
Extraordinary injunctions of secrecy
were placed on all senators in the con-
ference, but it was evident that the
committee was listening attentively
and that no disposition to cross-exam-
inc the ambassador developed at least,
during the first part of the conference.
Chairman Bacon announced at the
conclusion of the meeting that the
committee had been unable to finish
with Ambassador Wilson and that ne
would be heard again tomorrow.
Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, said he
had been very favorably impress scd.''
Senator Shively said the amba ssaG dor
had made an interesting statement of
his connection with Mexican affairs.
Senator William Alden Smith said he
had been highly impressed with the
''candor thoroughness and character"
of the statement
Ambassador Wilson declined to make
any statement. declaring he was under
oath of secrecy with the committee.
Am AMBASSADOR Wilson advocated Il re-
Stricted recognition of the Huerta gov
ernment but the senators took no ac-
ton. The details of his plans were not
diVulged at the time, but some of the
Republican senators said the am5as-
sador had made a favorable impression
not necessarily as to his plan, but as
to his whole story of events in Mex
