President Wilson's Message Creates No
 Excitement in Mexico-Mexican of-
 fIciaIs Decline to Make Comment.

Mexico City, Aug. 27.-The Mexican government is very silent on the mes- sage which the president of the United States read before congress today, out lining the situation in this republic and the attitude of the United States gov ernment. The minister of foreign af- fairs, Frederico -Gamboa, was advised by private messages of the delivery and the contents of1the message. He declared this evening that the officials of the Mexican government had no comment to make
 Will Publish Original Notes.
 We are authorizing" said the nnin- ister ttEe publication of the original notes exchanged, which I understand are contained in President Wilson's s message, and the further publication of two supplementary notes, the latest or which was sent to MT. Lind at Vera Cruz last night. These speak for them- selves They are the only comment we have to make
 No Excitement Created.
 It was not until night that any great number of the Mexican people were aware of the character of President Wilson's message. None of the after noon papers published any of it, the only account of the proceedings in the American congress reaching the city  sages to the government.
 The government officials refrained from comment, reserving their expres- sions until after consultation. In no quarter did the message create great excitement, as the agents of the gov patches, had forewarned General Huerta and his official family as to what to expect.
 Mexico's Policy Won't Change.
 General Huerta was not at the na- tiona1 palace this afternoon and at his home it was said he had gone to Popola, suburb, where he is superin- tending the erection of a dwelling. President Wilson's announcement of his policy had apparently not been of sufficient importance to cause the pro- visional president to forego what has been almost a daily habit, and a sim liar routine characterized all the de- partInentS of the government.
 Mexico's counter policy has been well understood for several days, and officials join in declaring that the atti- tude of the United States will oause no change in the stand which Mexico has taken For days runors have been resign or that he would at least ac- cede to enough of Wasl1ington's de- mands to lead to a continuation of the negotiations.
 Huerta Will Stick to Presidency.
 A cabinet minister said this after noon that General Huerta was deter mined not to quit office and that the summoning to the capital of General Trevino had nothing to do with a change in the presidency. Huerta ap- pears to believe that the pacification of the country can be accomplished by him.
 As 9 proof of the progress already ma In t13 is0N -,.%1a F of war defers to the reports of federal victories in various parts of the re- public and characterizes the stories of rebel successes as falsehoods.
 The administration points to the successful repairing of the main line of the National Railways and express es the hope that service will be re- suned within few days. This would have been accomplished today, it is said, had it not been for the cutting of the line yesterday between San Luis Potosi and Saitillo and the blowing up. of a military train by a rebel mine.
 Hopes to Negotiate Loan.
 The minister of finance professes faith in the happy outcome of the ne- gotiations with I6ndon or European bankers In an endeaYor to obtain $20,- 660,G00 but it is stated generally that even should this loan fail there, re- mains as q last resort the possibility of raising money in Mexico through in- creased taxes paid in advance.
 This plan has been seriously dis cussed.
 In any case. the Mexican govern rnent. believes that it can get money in some manner to carry it's campaign to a conclusion and is inclined to re- gard President Wilson's policy in a light not altogether unfavorable, since 1t will result in the cutting off of sup plies to the rebels-a thing upon which the Mexican government has al- ways insisted the. United States has been lax.
 Buying Arms from Japan, Germany
 and Spain.
 So far as the protection of foreign CTS is concerned, Mexico takes the po- sition that she will do all in her power to guarantee this. The refusal of the United States to permit arms and am- munition to reach Mexican govern ment through American sources will not be soN*erious a. handicap to Gen. eral HuertA as he has already begun the purchass\ of supplies from Japan and has longA been receiving consign- ments from Germany and Spain,
