No Furthst Good TO Be Accomplished
4 81 Confidential Agent.

Mexico City. Aug 29--The failure OF
John Lind, personal representative Of
President Wilson. 60 return to the cap
ital from Vera Cyp3 is taken here to
indicate that washington and Mexico
do agreed upon one thing at least,
namely, that there is no good tc be ac-
compiished by the trip. Mr.. Lind Ia
still in Vera Cruz awaiting instruc-
tions. The main government has made
nc further proposals or concessions to
the United states. It is considered hers
that the next move must be made by
Washington.
Officials here. today, viewed the sit
uation more brightly because of the
fiotation of a 1900. 900 peso loan which
was made by three local banks, the
National the Bank of London ana
Mexico. and the Baneo de Cemfnertio
y'Industria. The exodus Of Americans
from the capital on account of Pfest-
dent wilson's warning to them to leave
the country was greater. today. than,
Thursday. but rot so great as had
been anticipated since many eAmeri-
cans took the attitude that there was
no reason for them to get out unless
intervention was a certainty
Many persons appeared Inclined to
doubt the Judgment of the administrA-
ton for it's statement that the fisht-
ing would become sharper as q re-
suit of cutting off aof the suppiies of
ammunition Those persons seemed 70
be lseve that THE incressed difmcuity OF
both sides In obtaining ammunition
would result in less active operations
and therefore reduce the danger to
Americans.
Many Americans. today. sent pri-
vate teiegrams to friends IN Washint-
ton in an effort to get more specific
information concerning President VII
sons warning. number of largo
corporations employing Americans. in
various outlying points in the republic
are puzzled as to what instructions
they shall deliver to their men. since
the carrying out of President VIII
sons instructions would mean a COM
piete cessation of their operations.
A large number of Americans avail
ed themselves of the epportunity to
secure from the consul. general, trans
portation to the United States.
