ropean nations-Great Britain, Ger
many and France-have agreed to
adopt no new policy toward Mexico
until the government OF the United
States can submit for their considera-
tion a definite plan for the future treat

await proposal regarding Mexico from
this government has been made, and
that the three great European nations
had yielded to the request late to-day,
was announced by Secretary Bryan.

Washington from the South when the

plated negotiations with tho foreign
governments. The President arrived +
here late tonight, and planned to con-
fer early tomorrow with Mr.. Bryan.
