10 send detailed information Of de-
yelopments. Recently the consu.s have
been sending Geographic reports every
day.
Reports from Army Men.
Besides diplomatic and consular rep
resentatives. the President also has ac-
cess TO the reports Of all the army Off
GERS stationed along the border. The
military men are in position to get
large fund of accurate information re-
garding the situation in Northern Mex
ito. and il is understood that they have
sent in many reports. Then there are
the agents Of the Department Il JUS
tice who have nothing else 10 do than
observe conditions and prevent viola
ton of neutrality laws. The officers Of
the American warships stationed on
both coasts also furnish reports as TO
conditions
Besides all these official reports il is
known that President Wilson has been
receiving private reports from persons
he knows who are travelling i'm Mexico
or who are there for the specific pur-
pose Of investigating conditions a
great deal Of information is also avail
able from American refugees
The administration hopes that Am
bassador Wilson Will be able TO furnish
succinct and comprehensive report on
the whole situation. Many officials
here do not believe that he will be able
10 do so. as he is not in a position TO
know actual conditions in the north Of
Mexico Why it is necessary TO sum-
mon Mr. Wilson 10 furnish information
which is already I'm the department has
not been made clear. There is some
question, however, whether President
Wilson has had the benefit of informa-
ton which is in the possession of the
State Department
England Acted Alone.
No further light was shed to-day
upon the action Of the foreign diplo-
mats in Mexico Cit! in suggesting TO
their governments that their views on
the situation be transmitted 10 the
United States. II appears that Great
Britain acted alone in the matter.
speaking for herself and not as the
mouthpece Of all the countries whose
agents in Mexico took the initiative in
the matter. The method of Great Brit
ain in SO doing was decidedly informal
and no written document was sub
united. II was simply an Informal con-
Versation but none the less effective.
Whether it was between the British
Foreign Minister and the American
ambassador IN London. or between the
Secretary Of State and the British
Charge dAffaires is not divulged
II Is believed here that no other
country will approach the United States
IN the matter. This view is taken be-
cause the action Of England seems TO
nave sufiiced and because there has
been some criticism Of this foreign in
reference"
For the first time, so far as is pub
hcI' admitted, the United States navy
nds taken an active part in the revolu-
uoh' 1t appears that not long ago GER
'aih revolutionists carried off a lot OF
sugar from Los Mochis which belonged

DenVer was there at the time. and her
commander sent word that the sugar
must be returned within forty eight
Aours. II reappeared where it be-
longed within the specified period.
Cabinet in Accord
As regards che Cabinet meeting to-

was unanimously In accord with the
