coming TO the capital to renew negotla-
tions, Senior Gamboa replied that tins
appeared not unlikely, as he naturally
expected reply to his last note. He
added that Mr.. Lind would be entirely
welcome ct the capital and that per
sonallv he would be glad TO see him.
It is regarded here as possible that
further conferences between Senor
Gamboa and Mr.. Lind may result IN an
agreement. unless Washington continues
to he a sticklcr for compliance to the
letter of the demands for General Huer-
Ia IS D.candidacy.
Senior Gamboa s last note appeared
to make il clear that il would be impos-
sible for General Huerta TO be candl-
date for the presidency under the laws.
Commenting on this a prominent
Mexican explained the point IN these
words:

Huerta from the electoral contest, not

LIND'S NOET AND
REPLY GIVEN TO PRESS

MEX1CO CITY, Aug. 2s.-All the
documents connected with John Lind IS
mission to Mexico City were published
today in Diario Official, the Mexican
government organ, in their proper
chronological order They consist of

After giving in full Mr.. Lind IS orig

reply of August l6, the government or
gan pupblishes Mr.. Lind s second note
Of August 20, which is as follows:
Lind's Second Note.
" Mr.. Minister-The president of the
United States of America has not di-
rected me to answer the observations
contained in your note Of August 16,
and inasmuch as they are not by me
deemed pertinent to the suggestion con
tained in my instructions communicated
to you l. refrain from discussing them.
In the original instructions of the
president Of the United States il will
be noted that he expressly states we
wish to act in the circumstances in the
spirit Of the most earnest and disinter
ested friendship. 1t is our purpose in
whatever we do or propose III this per
picking md distressing situation not
only TO pay the most scrupulous regard
to the sovereignty and independence of
Mexico-that we take as a matter OF
course to which we are bound by everv
obligation Of right and honor-but also
to give every possible evidence that we
act in the interest of Mexico alone and
not in the interest Of any person or
body Of persons who may have personal
or property claims in Mexico, which
they may feel that they have the right
to press, We are seeking to counsel
Mexico for her own good and in the
interest Of her own peace, and not for
any other purpose whatever. The gov
ernment of the United States would
deem itself discredited il it had any
selfish or ulterlor purpose in transac-
tions where the peace, happiness and
prosperity of whole people are in

PRESIDENT HOPEFUL OF
PEACEFUL CONCLUSION

WAShlNGION, w Aug. 2S.-Strong
hope prevailed in official circles to-
night that the Huerta government and
the United States soon would arrive
at mutual understanding leading to
peaceful settlement Of the revolu-
tionary disturbances in Mexico.
President Wilson regarded as hope
full the tone Of the note sent by Fed
erico Gamboa, Mexican minister of
foreign affairs, in reply to supplement
tary suggestions made by John Lind
before leaving Mexico City last Mon
day. While neither side, according to
official Interpretation. yields any es-
sential point. the method of approach
ing the difficulties is admittedly more
friendly and framed with more regard
for a practical solution. Officials found
encoura cement. too in Mr., Lind 8 de.
csion to return to Mexico City
They had left his return to his dis
cretion If there was prospect Of re-
newing negotiations along tangible
lines
Notes Closely Read.
The two notes exchanged by Lind and
Gamboa were published in full here
today and official Washington read them
closely.
Interest was manifest in Lind's sug.
gestion that all proposals be laid aside
for the present, except that which asks
Huerta not to be a candidate in the
coming elections, 1t was learned that
while President Wilson knew the gist
of Mr., LIND IS second proposals, he was
no, acquainted until today with the
text Of the communication III which
Mr.. Lind promised that if his last
suggestions were accepted, assurances
would be given American bankers of
the moral support Of the American
| government for loan to rehabilitate
| the fuances of present Mexican re-
gime. The White house view of the
| offer OF the loan was that should the
present effort TO bring about peace ap.
pear TO be bearing fruit. it would be
incumbent upon the United States to
help Mexico straighten out her financial
tanges,
Might Be Evaded.
The statement Of Senor Gamboa that
Huerta, as provisional president OF
Mexico, was prohibited by the Mexican
constitution from succeeding himself
and that the American contention
therefore, was unnecessary, was scruti
nized closely Some officials pointed
out that no guarantee existed that
Huerta would not resign prior to the
election and thereby make himself eli
gible. 1t was suggested, too, that to ac.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-08-29

cept the citation of the Mexican con-
stitution as sufficient restriction on
Hucrta s candidacy might be construed
as recognition of Huerta as the con-
stitutionally chosen ruler.
However, hope was found in the Wig
orous disclaimer Of Senior Gamboa that
any one should have suspected Huerta
of desiring to become candidate. This
was regarded as q tacit implication
that Huerta finally would not enter the
presidential race.
Question of Pride.
The chief difficulties now, according
to administration officials, are the
questions Of pride and national honor
involved. Protestations by Senior Gam
boa that to yield to the contentious OF
the United States would be surren-
der of sovereignty and would permit
foreign government to veto the capdi-
dacy of individuals in Mexican cleo
tions hereafter, have been met by the
statement Of officials here that the
United States has not the slightest de-
sire to interfere with the sovereign
rights of Mexico.
There was confidence in official cir
cles that by the exchange Of other com
munications, both Mexico and the
United States would further clarity
their positions on this point, imputa-
tions of dictation would be removed
and any changes brought about in
Mexico, at any rate, would result from
the voluntary acts Of the Mexican ad-
ministration. So far as the Washing
ton government is concerned, it has
been made plain that it hopes merely
that peaceful settlement Of the differ
ences may be reached regardless Of how
the Mexican authorities are influenced
to compose the situation.
Press Cautioned.
Confidence Of this was given today
through frequent cautions by admins
tration officials to the press to avoid
injuring the sensibilities Of the Mexi-
can people by reference to Hconces-
sions, triumphs' or defeats" In
this connection pointed reference was
made to the remark of Senior Gamboa
in his latest note:
awe are really in the way Of ar
irving at an arrangement equally dig
nifed for both sides. -

situation grows acute, will leave late

| government continued to operate in en-
forcement Of the policy outlined by the
president in his address to congress yes

ties along the southern frontier were

Negotiations Probable.

For the reason that the other propo
sitions, Mr.. Lind S last note says. may
be settled later, and since Senor Gam
boa intimates in his last note conform
itv with this suggestion. it is pointed
out as probable that the negotiations
Will be reopened.
Senor Gamboa intimates that further
negotiations along the direct line OF the
demands would be useless, although at
the same time he expressed lively hope
of settlement.
The return OF Mr., Lind would do
much TO reassure some thousands OF
anxious Americans. many of whom are
planning speedy departure from the
capital
The warning of President Wilson was
telegraphed to all consuls who would be
reached in this way and arrangements
have been made for courers 10 points
such as Durango. which are. cut off
from telegraphic communication,

Intervention Threat.

S'You convey to the authorities the
indication that any maltreatment of
Americans would be likely to raise the
question Of intervention.
Regardless of the assurance contained
in President Wilson S message that the
policy of the administration was one OF
non-intervention, many Americans in
Mexico are skeptical regarding the
ability of the United States long to
forestall this.
The trains for Vera Cruz were crowd
ed tonight and ii is believed that addi-
tional sections will be run tomorrow
unless more reassurlng news is received
from Washington. The Mexican for
eign office has not been officially in
formed Of Washington IS warning, ac-
cording to the foreign minister. who
said that if it was true. eve must with
all due respect TO the American minis
ter that he acted prematurcly.

The afternoon newspapers give great
prominence 10 the past negotiations
and their editorials reflect laudatory
opinion on the part of the Mexican re-
public for what is regarded as the no

News from points within the republic

an uninterrupted series of victories on
the part of the federals. It is an
