here this morning. Before he left the
Mexican Government drew up another
note addressed TO him. Senior Federico
Gamboa. Minister OF Foreign Affairs.
said the note will be forwarded to Vera
cruz tonight. where It will be delivered
to Lind. He refused to tell the contents
of the note.
When asked II Lind intended to return
10 Mexico city Senor Gamboa said:
II DO not know but IL he returns W.
shall receive him with every courtesy
and consideration
Sees No Reason for Alarm.
"There has been considerable excite
ment," said Senor Gamboa, regarding
Mr. Lind's mission and the contents ~
the notes which have been exchanged be-
tween the two Governments. but up to the
present moment there has been no reason
for any alarm. Mexico has from the start
.ndcavored to observe "a cohcliatory at
titude. maintaining at the same time the
dignity OF the nation.
States believes 1t opportune to submit to
Congress "A report on the status of the
negotiations Mexico will be relieved OF the
tacit understanding which is imposed by
practice in affairs of this sort that details
OF negotiations Of this Importance should
not be published prematurely. Then. and
only then. will Mexico make haste to COM
municate tn the people In their entirety
the collection OF documents in the case up
10 that date.
THE situation is far from being hope
less II can only be called serious and
it is therefore imperative that public
opinion continue as it has done so far to
be discreet and cautious since this is the
hest way to give powerful aid to the
Government"
Americans Want to stay.
The departure Of MIR Lind is the only
subject of discussion among Americans
here. The general opinion among them
seems to be: THE American Govern
ment be hanged. We will not get out. we
have our business obligations to attend
TO. our contracts to carry out and our
properties to protect. II cannot be possi-
ble that the American Congress will stand
for such a proposition as this
Further expressions of protest against
the mediation plan submitted by the
United States Government are frequently

Government officials feel that the en-
barge on shipments of firearms across
the frontier for all parties alike would be
the next best thing to recognition. as
Gen. Huerta gets his munitions from Eu-
rope while the rebels get theirs from the
United States with the exception Of a few
small shipments from Canada.
President Huerta has insisted upon
Lind using the Presidential car on his
journey to Vera Cruz, and Mrs. Lind in
vited friends to accompany them Through
some fault Of an employee the car was
not there and Lind went on the regular
Pullman.
