WILSON PUTS BAN
ON NEW CONGRESS
Notifies World Huerta and Legis.
Iative Agency Must Go.
DiAZ ASKS HUERTA TO RESIGN
Former Mexican Chief Says Dictator
Should Forget Self to Benefit His
country-Patriotism Says
Should Rule Him.

Paris, Nov. 12.-Gen. Porfirio DiaZ
advised Gen. Victoriana Huerta Mon
day to retire from the presidency OF
Mexico. Two friends of General Diaz,
each acting separately and by author
ization of the ex-president, sent tele-
grams to General Huerta to this eff
feet.
In outlining his attitude General
Diaz said that in the present situation
of the Mexican people in relation to
the United States it was not ques-
ton of whether Huerta was the best
man for the presidency, nor was it a
question Of whether the revolutiOnists
were right or wrong; it was Ques-
ton of patriotism. He counseled Gen
eral Huerta to renounce any feelings
of personal prestige or power and thus
save Mexico from calamity.
Washington, Nov 12.-Develop-
ments in the Mexican situation during
Monday tended to emphasize pur-
pose on the part of the Washington
government to refuse to recognize any
of the acts of the new Mexican con-
gress and brought to light that serl-
Gus consideration was being given by
President Wilson to the question or
permitting expectation of arms to all
factions in Mexico.
Secretary Bryan had long confer
ence with Senior Algara, charge DAT
flares of the Mexican embassy, dur
ing which it is understood he said the
United States considered the election
of congressman equally invalid as the
voting for president and vice-presl-
dent
The state department made public
Huerta's note to the diplomatic corps
in Mexico City, the burden of which
was that the presidential election
would be declared null and void, but
that the newly elected members OF
congress would soon be installed and
would resume the legislative powers
which Huerta had assumed during the
interim between the arrest of the dep
uties for sedition and the induction
of the new members of congress.
White House officials called atten-
ton to what seemed to them an in
consistency In the Huerta note where
In it assumed as valid the elections or
congressman, which were held stimuli
taneously with the voting for presi-
dent and vice-president to be declared
by Huerta null and void.
The purpose of the United States
neither to recognize Huerta's right to
continue in power nor the acts of the
new Mexican congress Is the essence
of what has been communicated to
the foreign diplomats by this govern
ment. Future steps have not been
specifically outlined
There is no secret, however, OF the
desire of the United States for the &C
quiescence Of the powers in it's pol
Icy.
Refusal to recognize the acts OF the
new congress, which can grant con
cessions or ratify loan agreements,
would be likely, American officials
say. further to weaken the resources
of the Huerta government.
City of Mexico, Nov. 12.-Withdraw-
ais of silver from the Bank of London
and Mexico and the National bank, be-
gun Saturday, have reached the pro-
portions Of formidable run. Lines
of people from the paying tellers' win
dows extended for blocks. Hundreds
stood/for hours to get the coins.
