WATCHING MEXICAN
SITUATION CLOSELY |.
Washington Has No Faith In
Sundays Elections.

Washington, Oct. 23.-The Mexican
elections next Sunday are to be a
farce. This is expected both at the
state department and in other admin
1strative circles. But in holding
them Huerta has added to the dan
ger of all foreigners in the Southern
republic. .. ..-.--.-.s.--. ~s "
Because of this there is grave ap-
prehension here. It is feared the
announcement that there has been no
choice and that Huerta will continue
as provisional president" and abso-
lutte dictator will precipitate demon.
STATIONS that may call for imme-
date action by the United States.
The policy of hands of" !, an
nounced by President Wilson will be
changed only by serious outrages
against foreigners. But with prices
of all foodstuffs and clothing ad-
vanced by leaps and bounds and ex-
change in Mexico City already be-
yond the prohibitive mark, the feel
ing against Americans, who are held
responsible for existing conditions,
continues to grow. All of the con-
fidential advices received by the state
department during the last ten days
have emphasized the gravity of at
fairs. The president and Secretary
of State Bryan are holding numerous
conferences on the subject.
A plan of action has been com
pleted. 1t is carefully guarded. But
it is known that if it should become
necessary both the army and navy
could act at a moments notice.

DECLARES SuLzER
IS A WEALTHY man
Evidence Collected by Assembly
Managers to Be Published.

Now York, Oct pa summary Of
the evidence which the board of man.
ayers of impeachment in the assembly
gathered but which was not produced
against Governor Sulzer at his trial in
Albany will be made public shortly by
the lawyers who represented the
board. The better part of this evil
denoe had been prepared for use
against the governor on cross-examina-
ton and for rehuttal in the event that
any strong defense was put up.
After the governor was convicted
the opinion Of the board was that 1t
should be buried and forgotten. Since
Sulzer has accepted nomination for
the assembly, however, and put him.
self again in the running, it is the
determination Of the men who have
opposed him to. let loose a broadside
Of new evidence against him.
4 From information obtained in reli.
able sources it: is believed that the
summary or circular which will be
issued will contain charges that Sui.
ger, instead of being a poor man, is
worth several hundred thousand dol.
lars, II he is not millionaire.
The statement will tell of various
election contributions heretofore not
mentioned in the case which sulzer
received when "a candidate for gov.
ernor. There are hints that he col.
lected more than 100000.
why, judging from the facts that
have been gathered there seems t.
be little doubt that sulzer is worth
$1,000, 900, or almost that much" said
q man who knows the contents of the
pamphlet which is being prepared
This talk about Sulzer being a poor
man IL foolish. Why, he did not dare
take the witness stand" =.
