The claim Is set forth In the article
that the writer has the highest sanction
for denying that Minister Gardens In
terview with President E1uerta had any
bearing upon the strained relations be-
tween Mexico and the United States. II
further states that Sir Edward Grey has
taken Embassador Page fully Into his
confidence. that the most pleasant rea-
tions exist between the American embas-
sador and the British foreign office, and
that whatever action may seem neces-
sary after the elections. the same frank
