WASHINGTON, July 23.-Rspeal Of
neutrality laws with Mexico will not

One effect of the annullment of the
neutrality laws it is admitted would
put guns and powder in practically
unlimited quantities into the hands OF
those opposing the Huerta rule.
The administration is reluctant to
take this step because of the certain

strife in Mexico. But close advisors
/ of the president are urging such ac

tend that by making munitions OF
war contraband, this government Is
defeating the very object of the neu

LONDON, July 23.-Several hurried
conferences were held today at the
foreign office between Foreign Secre-
tary Sir Edward Grey and various am
bassadors concerning the Balkan situ-
alton which Is now perhaps at its most
acute stage. Intervention is regarded
as inevitable, but the question agitat-
ing the powers is whether they shall
all take hand or delegate the task to
one power. If only one, then which
one? Russia is believed here to be the
most available power for the job. But
If Russia steps in it is certain that
she will be watched jealously by Aus
tria- Hungary and Germany and 1t is
not improbable that intervention
would result in another breech be-
