ceI Jy t0e state department from
He. Lane Wilson. the American am
bassador. who stated that Francisco
ip la Barra. minister for forei-n nf
fairs. had invited all the foreign d'plo
mats In the City of Mexico tn take
luncheon with him and that the diplo
nuts requested him to postpone the
event until there had beef In InveSti
cation of the circumstances connected
with the killing of Aisdero and Sua-
reZ.
While Ambassador Wilson did not
explain this decision OF the diplomatic
body, Ii Is obvious to officials here
that the diplomats are rot convinced
Of the truth of the statement. made in
behalf of the Huarta administration
that the killing was the outcome If an
attack by persons not connected with
the government.
According to the view taken here.
the diplomats have Mt lenst "A suspi
ciOn that the Huertn government had
II hand in the assassination and feel
that they do o care to give recogni
ton to such a government by attend
ing an official function unless 1t ran
be shown that Madero and the former
vice president met their deaths with
out official c%onnivance.
Like Servian Assassination.
This attitude of the diplomatic body
in the City of Mexico produces II ait
uatiOn somewhat similar tn that which
was caused at belgrade YER the Kill
Ing of King Alexander and Queen
Draga. The diplomatic corps declined
TO recognize those who assumed con
troll of the Servian government on the
ground that 1t could not afford to have
relations with persons who had EN-
pioyed assassination to gain their ends.
This policy of the diplomats In Bel
grade WAS approved by their govern
nents. which refused to grant recogni
ton TO Peter Karageorgevitch. pretend
pr to the throne. In whose behalf the
asSasSins OF the king and queen per
formed their deed. No question entered
into the matter Of the right Of King
Feter to succeed King Alexander. The
sole issue was whether civilized gov.
ernments should recognize o man who
had become the ruler of a state through
M act Of ~treachery which. If he had no
actual part In 1t. was at least arranged
by those who had served his ends.
In like manner the decision by the
diplomatic corps In the Mexican capital
indicates the gravity OF the situation
which will confront the Huerta govern.
ment should 1t fail to c.anr away the
mystery In which the killing of Madero
and Suarez Is involved.
Evidently the foreign diplomats In
Mexico are unwilling to meet officially
or socially men In authority whom they
suspect of being directly or indirectly
parties to a terrible crime.
While no instructions have been sent
to Ambassador Wilson since his dis
patch was received. it Is evident that
officials of the Taft administration are
In nccOrd with the attitude assumed by
the diplomats In the Mexican capital.
1t Is taken for granted that II the
dend lenders were murdered ms the re-
suit of a plot the present government
will he called uTon for an explanation
when II seeks political recognition from
the United States.
