of his new position as governor, ne

in the meantime the authority OF the
duly constituted courts must be re-
cognized. Both the governor and the
lieutenant governor are trying to exer-

Information from Washington is to
the effect that Envoy Linds mission to
Mexico promises to be more success
full than was generally expected. When
IL first became known that Mr.. LIND
was to go to Mexico, Provisional Presi-
dent Huerta was quoted as saying that
he would not receive. Mr.. Lind unless
he brought recognition from the Unit!
ed States. 1t was commonly believed
that some indignity II not actual vio-
lence, would be offered to Mr.. Lind,

to the probable result Of anything like
that. Although nothing definite and
specific has come from Mexico. so far
as the public is concerned, 1t has been
given out from Washington that Mr.
Lind has succeeded in delivering his
message and that Huerta's reply will
probably be made public within few
days. 1t was not expected that Mr.. Lind
would write or telegraph his message,
but would take 1t to Washington in
person. The understanding seems to
be that all the European governments
are giving the Washington government
their moral support in the effort to
bring about a peaceful settlement OF
the Mexican trouble. So far 1t Is un-
derstood that about all the United
States is asking for Is the holding OF
an election at the earliest possible mo-
ment, and the expectation Is that HUI
erta will not be candidate.
Mexico City, August 1S: The Uni
ted States government has been given
until midnight tonight by President
Huerta to recognize Mexico, 1t Is Of
ficially stated. The government Is not
specific in the public announcement as
to what course will be pursued, but 1t
is understood that 1t means the sever
ing Of all relations between the two
countries. Senior Urrutia, minister of
the interior, who on previous occa-
sions has been the spokesman FOR the
administration, was the person chosen
tonight to make the announcement
Senior Urrutia refused to give out the
text of the correspondence between
Mr.. Lind and the Mexican government
but confirmed the fact that an ex-
change Of notes had taken place. Two
notes from Mexico have been sent to
Washington. The first was in reply
to that delivered by Mr.. Lind. This
note included the demand for recog-
milton of Mexico. The second note was
direct to Washington and demanded a
reply to the previous note be made be-
fore midnight. This is regarded here
as an ultimatum. One official in dis
cussing this latter note said that Mex

Harry K. Thaw who slew Stanford
White in Madison Square Garden, New
York on June 25. 1906, and after trial
for murder was declared to be insane,
and subsequently committed to Mat
teawan asylum, made a sensational
escape from that institution last Sun
day morning With Thaw's various ef-
forts to regain his liberty by legal
means, the public has been kept We'll
informed. AS the result Of exception
ally good conduct In the asylum, and
because Of his frequent declarations
that he had no desire for liberty ex-
cept through lawful means, Thaw had
begun to be regarded as trusty and
