Assembling of Mexican Con
gress, Creature of General
Huerta, Blow to Hopes of
President Wilson.
No Present indication That
Mexican Dictator Intends to
Yield to Demands and Opt
mism of Government Fades.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-The as
sembiing of the Mexican congress this
afternoon and it's organization pre-
tive functions next week is a blot TO
President wilson's hopes for a peace
full settlement OF the situation.
The meeting of the congress today
was in defiance of the demand of Pres
ident Wilson presented through John
land. II is another population OF the
Representations of the United states.
and once more puts the Washington
government in the position Of having
been impudently ignored by President
Huerta.
Disappointment over the organiza-
ton OF the Mexican congress was only
one of several indications today that
the Wilson administration was again
losing some OF its optimism. Tonight
found officials here awaiting with con-
siderable anxiety news OF develop
fnents in Mexico city with the chances
OF their being favorable to the de-
mands Of the United States. admittedly
less than they were twenty-four hours
ago.
No signs of Yielding.
There is no present indication that
President Huerta intends to yield al
| this time to the demand Of President
Wilson for his retirement. Though no
enc doubts that Huerta ultimately VIII
have to get out of the Mexican prest-
dency, there was today less DISPOSE
tton In official quarters to believe that
he ia going TO quit in response TO the
representations OF tae United States.
The impression that he will stick to
the presidency until actually forced
! out lis growing.

ranza's announcement that he will mol
! tolerate mediation, or Interference ir
1 the internal affairs of Mexico by amy
nation, has been seized upon by Huerta
according to today's adyices. as an OPP
portunity for strengthening his owr
position. The Huerta statement of this
afternoon announcing that he was
with Carranza in his patriotic declara
ton not to tolerate Interference on ths
part of the United States, is recog-
nixed as a weapon tn the hands of the
provisional president, which he car
