Washington, Nov, 17.-That the Unit ed States in it's policy toward the pro- Visiopal government in Mexico is con- tent to a wait the outcome of the steady pressure being eXerted to bring about the downfall of the Huerta regime, was apparent today in official circles here.
 Exciting runors from Mexico City wholly allied to rIffie the calm conf dence Of President Wilson or Secretary of State Bryan.
 The president was not at all aroused by reports that MT. O'Shaughnessy the American charge d'a1faires, was about to quit Mexico City, and it was stated that no orders had ben given either to MT O'Saughnessy of John Lind, at Vera Cruz to leave Mexico Rumors that the American embassy would be closed within IS hours were character ized in official sources as fake.
 Financial Boycott Powerful Factor.
 The presirent told callers during the day that while there had been some change in the Mexican relations as to persons, there had been no essential change in the circumstances to which he had referred the other day as seem ing favorable to a solution of the diff culteS-
 The president, if is said, is confident that the financial boycott of the Huer- "a regime by the United States and the great foreign powers will be pow erful factor in bringing about the end of Huerts-
 Hber4a's Message to Congress.
 Secretary Bryan has been informed by MT. O'ShaaghDessSy of the reSigna- tf0n Of Manuel CsarEa Aldspe as minis ter of the interior. but he has heard only Tumors of the intention Of General RianGue4 ta surrender his portfolio as minister of war While in some quar- -s-s -,v-7 ca binef changes as the forerunRer of iislntegration of the HueTt2 regime, iu others ii was pointed out that 1t might mark the adoption by General BUerta of Q more active and vigorous policy and one more defiant of the United States government
 An early development of his purpose Is expected in view of the fact that in the ordinary cOureS of events he must submit his special message to the con- gress not later than Thursday
 Quick Action by United States.
 The possibility of an interruption of the railroad communication between he City of Mexico and the seaport of Vera Cry1z which is now practically the only outlet from the capital, is giving considerable concern to the officials here aAd if Is said that any attempt thus TO isolate completely Americans and other foreigners in the Mexican S.apifal would result in quick action by inc United States to prevent ff- Sec re1ary Bryan had heard from some of his agents that the line of con1rnunica- ton was threatened but if was not clear wether the Interruption was to be expected as Q result of some decree of the Huer1a government or from opera tipus of the reyoiutionists, who have suddenly appeared in some force In the difficult mountain country lying be- tween Vera Cruz and the capital
