Outlook Favorable.
President Wilson had prepared
earlier in the day a statement of the
situation recting what had
been attempted in the communica-
tons that had been presented by
Charge OShaughnessy and John
Lind but within few hours such
favorable aadyices were received to

weekly conference, (which ! cannot
at present discuss but which makes
it look much more favorable to me. "
London, Nov. 13.-Tho Washing
ton correspondent of the London
Times cables to his paper what pur-
ports to be the American policy with
regard TO Mexico, as formulated by
President Wilson:
First, the United States viii insist
upon tho elimination Of General
Huerta and all those closely asso-
ciated with him from the control OF
public affairs and to secure this end
will spare no effort and will invade
Mexico if necessary.
Second, every cnGcayOr will be
made to effect the elimination OF
the Huerta administration. by fuan-
clal pressure. Or, in other words, no
steps will be taken to aid that adj
ministration to avoid what seems to
be inevitable bankruptcy It viii be

the obligations incurred by tho pres.
ent regime wi not be recognized
and must become worthless.

not prove sufficient to accomplish
tho end desired. the United states
will resort to a blockade of the
Mexican ports. thus destroying thc
customs revenues and preventins

that the United states Navy shoult
