AUTHORITIES QUIET ON
MEXICAN PROBLEM
Refuse to Discuss Inquiries Made by
Ambassador Page i'm London
Election Awaited.

WASHINGTON, Oct Estate de-
partment officials Wednesday declin-
ed to discuss in any way the inquiries
made by Ambassador Page in London
in respect to Great Britains attitude
in Mexico.
1t was evident that in whatever is
passing between Great Britain and
the United States on the latest phase
of the Mexican situation, the utmost
secrecy is TO be observed. At the
white house there was positively no
information available and Secy Bryan,
who spent the entire day at home
working on foreign matters. displayed
extreme reticence about the subject.
Diplomats generally were of the
opinion that there would be further
conversations. but that they were not
likely to occur until after Oct. &c,
when the Mexican elections are sched-
uled to take place. new expression
of policy is expected from the United
States Immediately after that date.
No developments of Importance in
the internal situation in Mexico were
reported except the arrival of Gen.
Felix Diaz, which John Lind prompt
ly cabled to the state department
without comment.
The dispatch of warships to Mexi-
can waters by France, Germany and
Great Britain brought forth no COM
ment from officials here. 1t is known
that the sending of the warShips is
not regarded by the United States as
conflicting in any way with the de-
sire of this government for a free
hand in dealing with the Mexican
problem.
