shirt which was rather grimy, had
been discarded by somebody and
picked 1t up and flung it into the sea
Thereupon Lombard shouted the
equivalent in Italian of man over

from the steerage. Lombardi ex-
planned that there was not really a
man overheard. but that his shirt was

by that time the shirt was far out
Of sight. Lombardi was taken before
the captain and proved that he had
500 francs in the shirt. When the

President Optimistic.
The president was manifestly pleas
ed today at the turn developments
have taken in the last few days and
made no secret of his optimism at the
general outlook. He apparently con-
siders that dangerous potentialities
have been removed by his success in

making sure that for a time at least.
no i'll considered speeches on Mexico
will be delivered in the senate. The
failure of the predicted outbreaks in
Vera Cruz and Mexico City against
special Envoy Lind to materialize and
the assurances from the Mexican
authorities that they will give Mr..
Lind full protection as an American
citizen convinced the president that
the way is now open for fair trial
of the policy he has evolved for deal
ing with the Mexican problem.
The declaration of the presidents
belief that an organized effort is be-
ing made to plung this nation into
war aroused intense interest here. The
only complaint heard was that the
president has not been specific on this
subject. There is reason to believe.
though. that Mr.. Wilson before long
may deem it necessary to use names
and to fix the responsibility where he
thinks 1t belongs, The president. 1t

certain newspapers which have pub
lished lurid and apparently exag-
gerated accounts of developments on
the Mexican situation. These news
papers, 1t is konwn, have been the OBJ
ject of much comment by cabinet Of
ficers.
Secretary of State Bryan at the pres
ident's conference with the foreign re-
lations committee complained for half
an hour of the attitude of certain
newspapers toward the Mexican situa
tion.
Comedies With Williams.
The presidents belief comedies part
~ with that expressed by Senator John
sharp Williams of Mississippi. on the
floor OF the senate last week. Sena-
tor Williams charged directly that
there was being maintained in Wash
ington' formidable lobby for the pur
pose of bringing on war with Mexico,
but the president has indicated that he
did not know on what Information SEN
ator williams had grounded his charge.
The president Is not alarmed. but he
Is angry at the campaign of colossal
lying" which he believes is being car
ried on to procure Intervention In
Mexico. He does not regard the cam
paign as extensive nor formidable and
retains his confidence that the senti-
ment of the people OF the country is
overwhelmingly against intervention in
Mexico at the frightful cost to the
United States, which It would evolve.
The president conferred with Mr.
Bryan for an hour this afternoon. but
1t was said that the Mexican situation
had been discussed only for part of this
time.
Evidently satisfied to let President
Wilson carry out his Mexican plans un-
opposed. the senate passed the hour of
