 based by those who advance It, Cn the assumption that the government will bring into the capital a force sufficient Iy large to defend it many weeks, and the besiegers would include not only the clements of the northern rebellion, but thousands of the adherents of "a pata, notorious for his cruelties and barbarism.
 Although Lind appears not to have made much progress toward altering the opinions of the British minister, Sir Lionel Garden his relations with the German minister seem much closer Admiral Paul Won Hintze, German minister, was a guest of Lind at lunch con today.
 It is known here that Lind has rec | commended that diplomatic negotiations with Mexico be terminated.
 President Huerta issued a formal
 note to foreign diplomats stating that the new congress to be installed in q few. days would pass on the presi- dential election. He calls attention
 to efforts to pacify the country and reminds diplomats of his pre- election statement that neither he nor Blan quet would accept the presidency be- cause it is illegal. He refers to a conference with the candidates and their promise to abide by the result of the election. He gives his reasons for dissolving the congress. Now, in view of the fact. accord l ing to reports which the government has received" continued the note, that there exists an earnest pre- sumption that, because it has been impossible to carry on the voting in tEe number of polling places pre- sCribed by law the elections fail to be considered a true manifestation of the will of the people, and because it $ fOreseen that the said presidential it's foreseen that the said presidential executive wishes it to be known once more to the countries of the whole world that in accord with this deter imitation he shall continue exerting himself for the pacification of the country in order to be able to guar antee freedom and efficacy in the new elections which congress will as a necessary cOnsQuenCe of that de- claration.
 Tn the same manner he wishes to make known once more to his friends and those outside the republic that being regardfuI of the law he is per suaded that by virtue of his having occupied the post of president of the republic while the elections were held he considers himself constitutionalIy impeded from being VaIidIy elected He will on no account take consid-
 rratiOn of the vote which may have been cast in his favor no matter what be the resolution of congress- and he will not accept in this case the constitutional presidency of the republic"
 He relies as president on the sol chm promise of the honorable citi- zens who figured as candidates for
 the presidency and vice presidency,
 who represent all the political par
 ties of the republic to see that per
 feet harmony -reigns between the
 three powers of the union and that
 the government of the world will re- commend without exception that only the present government can call new elections and guarantee their free dom and efficacy.
 He hopes to be able to fulfill easily within the period which con- gress shall designate his sacred duty, consulting the national desire to con- secrate by suffrage of the people an executive who is to rule definite ly the destinies of the country. Other wise the realization of the execu- tives program will not be possible within a long period of time. This program consists of peace and legali- ty, which are the only mediums in which elections may become the ex- pressiOn of the peoples popular will 1 in which the individual native, as well as the foreigner may enjoy full guarantees. Only under such con ditions can the economic develop
 ments of the republic permit all so- l cial classes to gather the fruits of l their labor and the product of their | capital"
