through William Bayard Hale, Gen. We
nustiano Carranza. the leader of the con-
stitutionalist revolt against Huerta. await
ed today for the word from Wash ngton.

could guarantee the establishment of or
der within reasonable time, and the
foundation of real representative govern

Neither CarranZa nor Hale would give

assurance that the lifting of the embargo

conditions in Mexico.
Gen. Carranza said today he would not
accept mediation in any form by the
United States or any other foreign gov
ernment He reiterated previous state

P|NDE[L OFF Job

A strong fight will be made against the
confirmation Of II. NJ. Pindell, the Peoria
editor whose nomination as ambassador
to Russia the President Is expected TO
send to the Senate it was stated today
by a member OF the Senate foreign re a
tions committee. Although the Pres-
dent and the Secretary Of State are said
to have been satisfied that Mr.. Pindell
was entirely worthy of the position, ana
that he was not endeavoring to obtain
the position with the understanding he
should have the honor and no work and
should retire at the end OF a year. as
suggested in a published letter alleged 10
have been written by Senator Lewis, tne
nomination was not sent to the senate
today.
1t was said today that Mr. Pindeli HIM
self had written letter to washington
regarding appointments in his oistric'
which has come to the attention OF some
of the senators, and WINE the cohte'.s !,
of this letter have not been dlsciosed ~
may operate strongly against MI Pihoeii
If Nj, Pindeil really wrote this letter
said one senator today, Il do not believe
the foreign relations committee Will re-
port him favorably."
Claims Letter Partly Forgery.
| Charging that the "Pindell Letter" al
| legged to have been written by him. was
| In a large measure a forgery, Senator
| James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois today
declared that discharged employe of his
Washington office had invented the letter
| in which the senator was made to dicker
| with H. NJ. Pindell of Peoria, for the
| ambassadorship to Russia. Senator
Lewis said that this employe had at
tempted to quote some of the words from
1ofS 1Uh{ had
W itten to the Illinois editor.
Concerning the correspondence with
Mr.. Pindel. Senator Lewis said:
1.-The creation Of these letters assumed
to have been from me to MIR. Pindell as
published, now develops to have been
the result of colusion on the part OF
former employee of my Office in Wash
ington, who had previously forged my
name to checks and had been discharged,
but who had been protected by me from
the penalty because of his fam1iy-and
certain of his confederates.
Aided by Confederates.
These shaped these letters and sought
to dispose of the same as being from me
to Mr. Pindell-the stenographer having
memory that letters of some kind on
the subjects referred to had ben dictated
by me to Mr.. Pindell.
however. the language used ana the
phraseology in the invented letters Were
SO foreign to anything used by me that
for three weeks throughout the country
he had been unsuccessful.
Later, through cooperation of some
enemies of Mr.. Pindell Tin Illinois, as
am informed). who vouched that such
| letters had been seen, either IN the
possession of Mr.. Pindell. or had been

| ceived, was this faithless employe able
