victim of . political lynching," was
the declaration Of former Gov. Sulzer,

Washington Feels, However
That Fair Election May Yet
Be Accomplished

WASHINGTON, Oct. t8.-
While official confirmation Of
President Husrta's reported resio.
nation was lacking In dispatches
rscsived, today, from Mexico
City, effieiats confidently expect.
Cd such word within the next "a
hours.
These officials agreed that n
the reports Of abdication were

tion.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 1S.-Through
ofYiciaf and unofficial channels, today,
the administration learned that
President Huerta may son abdicate,
that diplomatic representatives OF
foreign nations Mexico CITY appar-
emily are clamorng for decisive
step by the United States In the Mex
lean muddle and that hourly the sit
uation grows more complicated.
The official news was in a massage
from special Envoy Ind that the IN
dcations" were that Huerta would re-
tire, although no specific informa-
ton was given.
Charge O'Shaughnessy's message
on the last diplomatic conference or
the Mexico City corps reported no
concerted action, but indicated q
strong underlying sentiment for d.
rect Intervention.
President Wilson was disinclined
today to take any new step. although
his advisers felt he may be forced to
outline Q new policy shortly.
OMcials welcomed indications or :
possible abdication, but tempered 1t
%ftHl6HfeAension that such course
might mean aserious uprising IN
Mexico City among opposing rae
tions.
The administration was inclined to
feel. however, that immediate with
drawal of Huerta's hand In Mexican
politics would bring fair elections
and result In recognition Of the re-
public.
state department officials took the
position that efforts to get foreign
backing for the United States atti.
tude toward Mexico constituted no
departure from the Monroe Doctrine.

BERLIN, Oct 1S.-The admiralty
today oficially announced that the
exact cause Of the Zeppelin catas-
trophe at JohannisthA that cost 28
lives. could not be ascertaiped. The
most plausible theory. the statement
said, was that the explosion was
caused by the back.firing Of . car.

hostile nation or q personal enemy OF
Count Zeppelin might have caused
the disaster. II Indignantly secuted
by those who knew the men aboard
the aircraft when she was destroyed.
Throughout the night. the twisted
wreck Of the dirigible lay on Johann
iethal field, where It fell, guarded BY
soldiers. At times they were forced
to drive back with fixed bayonets
crowds Of determined souvenir hunt
ers.
The funeral Of the 20 victims will
be held on Monday, and with the con-
sent Of their families their hndies will
be buried in one grave. The kaiser
and al 1.-The high ofllcials Of the Ger
man government are expected to at.
tend the funeral, which probably Will
be one Of the most elaborate and ip-
