JOHNSTON IS
SUCCESSOR TO
MAI. RAYMOND
United States Engineer Is
Transferred After Brief
Period In Local Office
NOT INFORMED YET
OF NEW LOCATION

Major r. r. Raymond, q. s. A..
United States engineer in charge Of
this district, received notice from
Washington today of the appointment
Of Captain Edward N. Johnston, U.
s. A., to succeed him in this office.
The information came as surprise
to Major Raymond and followed no
tice received yesterday directing him
to report to the Walter Green General
Hospital at Washington, d. c., for OBJ
servation and treatment. AS he IS in
good health the meaning Of the order
was rather vague. Major Raymond is
to turn the Office over TO Captain
Johnston on December 20.
Major Raymond refused to discuss
the order received today when ques-
toned on the subject He seemed to
be disappointed however. due to the
fact that he came here only in Febru-
airy. 1910. and il is understood that the
practice has been to allow an officer to
remain at one post four years Major
Raymond made his home at No. oil
Delaware avenue.
Major Raymond's successor is now
on a four months leave in Australia.
He has been in the office of the chief
of engineers at Washington for five
years.
The news Of the removal OF Major
Raymond from this district no doubt,
will be received with considerable
displeasure by members of the Cham
her of Commerce and others persons
who arc interested in the advance
mont OF Wilmington as a port. Since
coming to Wilmington Major Ray
mond has given sthe local harbor
much thought and much has been ac-
lcompiished toward bringing about
big improvements, including per-
manent dredge. Bids are for the
dredge are now being asked. to be
opened within month, and 1t is hop
cd that work on it will be started
next Spring.
Major Raymond has received no fur
ther order than that when reached him
Yesterday. and where he will be detailed
for duty following his stay az the
Hospital, he does not know Major Ray
mond's district comprised Wilmington
and an the streams in Delaware and
New Jersey. including Atlantic City and

PAT
ON MEXICAN
PEACE PLAN
Wilson Will Not Recognize
DeFaCtO Government Although

LIND'S MISSION IS
FAR FROM ENDED
BY The United Press.

BY The United Press.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.-"Dead-
locked described the situation today
between the United States and
Mexico. Non-recognition of the
Huerta administration is the OBJ
stacle President Wilson is standing
pat" on his refusal to recognize the
de facto government.
Difficulties with Mexico were Of
ficially regarded today as more com
plex, but not more critical. The ad-
ministration is awaiting further ad-
vices from Governor Lind while Lind
is apparently awaiting further orders
from Washington, with President
Huerta declaring it is this govern
ment's next move"
Despite unofficial reports here and
in Mexico City, that Huerta had re-
jected the proposed mediation plan, a
report given credence today in dip
lomatic circles here was that Huerta
regards the plan as never having
been "diplomatically" submitted to
him. He contends, it is reported that
by failure of this government to re-
cognize his administration he has and
cannot receive any suggestions from
it. But he is willing to continue
quasi-official conferences. This lat
ter stand of Huerta was regarded to-
day by the administration here as
the most hopeful sign in the con-
toyersy.
High officials today feared that
/ Huerta will obstinately refuse to en-
tertain any further or modified pro-
posals from the United States until
his administration is recognized, This
Is the stumbling block in the whole
proceeding. However. 1t was denied
that Huerta had submitted any "ulti.
matum" for recognition.
In view of the deadlock today, il
was learned authoritatively that Pres.
ident Wilson and Secretary Bryan are
considering another conference with
the Senate foreign relations commit

tion.

for immediate action in Mexico by thI
United States is avoided. the admins

crowd which filled every corner Of the
big courtroom perspired and wrangled
the Thaw lawyers successfully STAYED
off their clients appearance in court.
They had agreed TO argue for a writ
of habeas corpus at 10 o'clock. They
did not do So Instead at II o'clock
they announced that they might make
a move at o'clock And while they
successfully held off for delay the OPP
position remained in the dark as to
their ultimate intentions.
District Attorney Conger, of Dutch
ess County, New York. made an ap-
peal to Judge Globensl1y in chambers
to take action to expedite the case.
He accused the Thaw lawyers of try
ing to secure unwarranted delay.
The court explained that under the
commitment he had no jurisdiction.
Thaw is jailed for an.eight-day period
unless soon released through his own
efforts and cannot be brought into
court except on a writ of habeas
corpus. This writ can be granted
only on his own application and his
lawyers will not do this at present.
Thaw was the center of interest to-
day. The Thaw lawyers sent w. s.

ion capital on secret session. And
they kept in telephone communication
with him all day. Meanwhile Thaw

and three personal friends called and

them he felt sure they would soon
have him free
