Washington. Oct. 23.-An atmosphere
of gravity and sombre silence envel-
oned the Mexican situation here, to-
night, not only with regard to the dis
satisfaction of the United States at
Great Rritains attitude, but as to the
critical state, of affairs in Mexico City
as the election Of oct &c draws near.
There were no tangible develop
ments, but an incident of the day
which official Washington interpreted
ominously was President Wilson's flat
refusal to discuss Mexico or any phases
of the problem when he met the Wash
ington correspondents in their usual
semi weekly conference. The President
always had discussed. informally and
uncaicially, matters of International
consequence, giving the general status
of affairs, Today, he asked to be ex-
cused.
Secretary Bryan showed equal retl-

was that crisis was slowly approach

lieVed to be dead, tonight beneath

tonbed men were trapped.
Fourteen dead, 20 rescued, make up
the total Of the days work OF recoN-

in charge of the rescue work to hope
that some live miners, perhaps, are stlil
