Americans in Mexico
Halt u. S. Intervention.
Bv JONATHAN WINFIELD,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2o-"Come
home"
So said President Wilson to about
10000 Americans in Mexico a few
weeks ago.
"All right"
This was the answer Of about 80
600, and they at once left the land OF
sands and sombreros for the States.
No" replied 10,OOO-odd Americans
with stubbornness in their makeup
and their money In Mexican invest
ments; we won't come home until
you tell US why we should"
And there you have one OF the odd
est little problems that nation ever
had to face. 1t is a problem that
causes President Wilson to think his
brow into worried burrows and take
frequent rests on the golf links.
It is a problem that causes Secre-
tary Bryan to look back on old po-
Itical battles as childs play and so
ont on the chautauqua circuit for re-
Iaxation and rest 1t is a problem
that also battles John Bassett Moore,
sage counselor Of the State Depart
ment.
Congress Dodges Issue.
Congress? Why, Congress has
taken one or two frightened glances
at the problem and gone back to tar
If and currency legislation with Wis
,ble relief and alacrity. Congress has
gone lust far enough into the problem
"a convince herself that it is one to he
taken up only after studiOus consiG-
Grafton. and then handled only with
kid gloves.
ANY Government official, any army
ar naval officer, any foreign diplomat
and in short anyone who has given
the subject serious thought and is
competent to speak will tell you that
hose 10000 contrary Americans who
have elected to stay in Mexico in the
face Of the presidential request have
furnished the United States with A
problem so battling as to discourage
efforts Of its solution.
And here is the reason why: As
long as Americans remain in Mexico
the United States practically is pow
erless to take any action that might
invite Mexico to war or even cause
banditti outbreak. As long as there
are Americans on Mexican soil the
hands Of the United States are tied.

Governor SIaton Announces He
viii Make His Ruling on AppIi-
cation for CIemencyThis Week.
Wants to Review All Evidence.
Lawyers for Accused Physician
and Those Who Are Striving to
Send Him to GaIlows Fight
Desperately Before Executive,

Governor Slaton will announce his
decision in the case of DR.. J. w. Nc
Naughton, for whom pardon r.
sought, some time this week. This
assurance was given by him at noon
Saturday, following a two-hour con
ference with the attorneys on both
sides. From all the indications the
chances Of the convicted physician
for a full pardon are slender.
The conference followed a consul
tation between the attorneys regard
ing certain parts of the testimony
which the Governor requested them
to consider and, If possible, agree up
on It, so that It could be embodied in
written form.
The attorneys met early Saturday
morning, but reported to the Govern
or that they could not agree. Govern
or Slaton then reviewed the particu-
( lar evidence to them as he under
stood It, and his construction OF It
proved acceptable 20 both sides.
Il will announce my decision in the
McNaughton case some time nexi
| week. i" said the Governor to a group
of reporters. Il will review the writ
ten testimony again and go into the
new evidence which was submitted TO
me Friday ] viii make a written
statement OF my action In the mat
! ter"
Many Call at Capitol.
A large number of visitors called at
the Capitol Saturday morning, in the
expectation that the McNaughton
hearing would be continued to-day.
Many Of the visitors were from En-
! anuel County and had not heard of
, the conclusion Of the case at mid
night.
Both Judge Saffold and Attorney J.
w. Bennett, attorneys for McNaugil-
ton, and Attorney A. S. Bradley and
Solicitor General r. Lee Moore were
present at the conference Saturday.
With the prisoner branded on the
one hand as the most cunning OF poi
soners and on the other as the victim
of an astounding conspiracy and mis-
directed public wrath, the Gov
ernor faced an exceedingly hard prob
lem.
II was 1890 a. m. Saturday when
Judge Frank II. Saffold concluded his
argument for the physician. The
night session was held at the re
quest Of Judge Saffold, who desired
to leave for Savannah at 1915 O'Clock.
In the earnestness Of his pleading for
executive clemency, however, he
failed to recognize the flight Of time
and spoke for fifteen minutes beyond
the time his train was due to leave.
Slaton Quizzes Lawyers.
Governor Slaton Cancelled an en-
| gagement to deliver an address at the
| Auditorium to hold the night session.
| The afternoon session lasted until
! 5:45 o'clock, when a recess was taken
until o'clock
Solicitor General r. Lee Moore and
A. :. Bradley made the arguments for
the state, while Colonel J. W. Ben
nett and Judge Saffold made the plea
for the applicant. Governor SIaton
interrupted at frequent intervals to
ask questions quizzing all of the law
yers and the Emanuel County resi-
dents who had come to Atlanta to
protest against the issuance of par
don.
