MEXICO REMAINS SILENT.
No Comment to Make on Wilson's
Message-No Excitement.

Mexico City, Aug. 28.-The Mex.
sage which the President of the Uni
ted States read before Congress out
lining the situation in this republic
and the attitude of the United States
government The minister Of for
eign affairs, Federico Gamboa, was
advised by private message of the
delivery and contents. He declared
that the officials of the Mexican gov
ernment had no comment to make.
I'VE are authorizing" said the
minister, 1.-The publication Of the
original notes exchanged, which !
understand are contained in Presi-
dent Wilson's message and the fur
ther publication of the two supple
mentary notes, the latest Of which
was sent to Mr.. Lind at Vera Cruz
last night. They speak for them
selves. They are the only comment
we have to make"
1t was not until night that any
great number Of the Mexican people
were aware of the character of Pres
ident Wilson's message. None of
the afternoon papers published any
Of it, the only account of the pro-
ceedings in the American Congress

from comment, reserving their ex-
pressions until after consultation. In
no quarter did the message arouse
great excitement, as the government
agents, as well as press disp patches,
had forewarned Gen. Huerta and his
official family as to what to expect
MeXico's counter-policy has been
well understood for several days, and
officials join in declaring that the
attitude of the United States will
cause no change in the stand Mexico
has taken. For days rumors have
been current that Gen. Huerta
would resign or that he would at
least accede to enough of Washing
tons demands to permit a continual
ton Of negotiations. However,
cabinet minister said this afternoon
that Huerta was determined not to
quit office, and that the summoning
to the capital Of Gen. Trevino had
nothing to do with a change in the
Presidency. Huerta appears to be-
lieve that the pacification OF the
country can yet be accomplished by
him.

tion in the conduct OF the mills Of
which he was president. This does
not affect the Parker Mills Company,
Of which Lewis w. Parker is presi-

row morning with the assistance Of
the big new InterIsland Steam NaYi-

The Wilne1mina has again contrib

hoodoo which has with painful per-
sistence followed this vessel in her
voyage across the Pacific has not
been shaken of. Within the past
year the Wilhelmfna has lost several
portions of her propelling machinery.
In one instance. two blades dropped
within but a short distance Of each
other, although several trips had in
