AMBASSADOR TO-DAY. == PRESI-
DENT DOES NOT BELIEVE CRISIS
EXISTS IN MEXICO.
CONGRESSMAN ASKS
FOR CONSUL'S REMOVAL

Washington, D. c., July 2S.-Am
bassador Wilson Immediately after his
conference with President Wilson
said:
Ambassador Wilson said that he ex
pected to leave Washington tonight
to be away several days. He would
not discuss the possibility Of his re.
turn to Mexico in his official capacity
His departure at this time seems to
indicate that he will not appear before
the Senate foreign relations commit
tee.
Secretary Bryan, who had lunched
With the president, entered the exc
proper and joined the conferences in
tle presidents office.
He remained for a short time with
the president after Ambassador Will
sons departure.
NO policy was discussed at the
Conference said Mr.. Bryan, "and it
is not known now when a policy will
Ee formulated, but it probably will be
H. a very short time"
The conference was for the pur-
lose of placing before the president
all the information available on the
Mexican situation. The president will
consider the entire subject, including
whatever recommendations Ambassa-
cor Wilson has made or may desire to
rake
"The discussion related entirely to
the facts of the situation and not at all
TO any question of governmental
policy. All views relative to the sit.
uation have been placed in the hands
of the president for his consideration.
Secretary Bryan was not present.
President Wilson does not believe
the public mind in the United States
is excited over the situation in Mex
leo or is he convinced. that a crisis
is imninel in Mexico itself.
This I'M ri lation was obtained in
official circles today with an authora |
i've denial that any proposal looking
toward a cooperation between Ameri- |
Cdu lulllldlS lOlSCo cIlu VIC MCAlCdh
government forces for a resumption
of peace was suggested. Those who
approached the president today on the
Mexican situation found him disin-
clined to discuss the subject, as later
he was to confer with Ambassador
Henry Lane Wilson. Secretary Bryan
arranged to see the president before
the conference. The secretary also
continued his reticence on Mexican af.
fairs.
1t was learned from the white house
however, that reports crediting AM
bassador Wilson with having advocat-
ed set of proposals contemplating
cooperation with Mexico or interven-
tion were unfounded. The president
has received from Ambassador Wilson
historical account of events in
Mexico in the last three years
The ambassador himself declared
today he had not mentioned any rene. '
dies on the situation and had not even
put on paper the plans he had in {
mind. He reserved these, he said, for
his personal interview with the presi- f
dent. Contradictory information has !
reached the Washington government f
regarding the stability of the Huerta !
government. 1t was said today to be
a question of reliability of informants
Officials trained to state reports were
credited 1t was said, however, that
in the last ten days there has been
little or no change in the status OF :,
affairs in Mexico.
