COUCHED IN VERY
| FRIENDLY TERMS.
Message Of President on
Mexican Situation.
MONROE DOCTRINE SAFE
Administration Does Not Regard A..
tltude of Foreign Governments as
an Interference With the Rule as
Heretofore Laid Down.

Washington, Aug. 26-President
Wilson made it plain that unless
there is a change in the attitude of
the Huerta government within the
next twenty-four hours he would car
ry out his intention to personally read
To congress a message outlining the
policy of the United States toward
Mexico. The message is couched in
very kind terms, because the presi-
dent feels that the world generally
ought to recognize that the situation
in Mexico is abnormal, being con-
trolled by small group of men.
The circumstances, the president
believes, ought not to obscure the zeal
feeling OF the United States towards
Mexicans, which is one of generous
friendship. The president does not
wish to use words of harshness or
hostility.
That foreign powers generally are
exercising their good offices in Mexi-
co and pressing Huerta to yield to
the American proposals now is gen
orally admitted by administration
officials. When the question whether
such participation by European gov
ernments Il the politics of the West
ern hemisphere was considered an
infringement upon the Monroe doc
trine IL was pointed out by admins
tratlon officials that the United
States did not construe an act of
friendship as impairing at any time
the Monroe doctrine.
Advice 10 Voluntary.
1t was pointed out also that the
activities of foreign governments
we're not due to any request by the
United States for assistance but that
this government had decided on a
policy of keeping the nations of the
world generally informed of the steps
being taken to bring about peace
leaving 1t to the countries of the
world to do spontaneously what
seemed expedient.
A copy of President Wilson's mes
sage will be delivered to the diplo-
matte corps here after it's reading to
congress. The document is longer
that usually has been the case with
messages from President Wilson.
When he was asked to estimate its
length he laughingly told friends he
had written IL on a new typewriter
and could not estimate it, but ii is
expected to make about 1000 words.
Consul Letcher reported from Chi.
huahua that seventy-five Americans
arriving there from MADEIRA told of
the capture Of that town from Pom
cho villa by independent guerrillas,
who now seek union with the federal
forces. The badits are said to have
been under command of Rojas In the
Orozco rebellion and have remained
under arms ever since.
Consul Canada reported from Vera
Cruz that thirty maruaders, led by a
woman, had robbed the Mexican
plantation Of Canton Cordebo.
