ers and representatives of all rail-
roads. About that time the passenger
rates will be discussed, and South Da-
kota may come into reduced passen-
ger and freight rates at once.

dered a hearing, date to be deter
mined soon, concerning the prepare

the funnel slipped from it's place and
precipitated the gasoline over her
clothing. The burner vas hot enough
to ignite the fluid and in an instant

Mulhal began the second recital of
his experiences in attempting to in

FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS WILL
GIVE PRESIDENT UTMOST FREE
DOM IN MEXICAN PLAN.
MAY DISCHARGE AMBASSADOR
Chief Executive Likely to Remove En-
voy to Mexico for Attacking Brit
aln-WIIson's Praise Of Huerta
Guided Others.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The United
States government Informally ascer-
tanned the policy of the powers
Wednesday and learned that foreign
governments generally will do moth
ing to embarrass the peace plans of
President Wilson toward Mexico, and
are inclined to support them.
Harry Lane Wilson. whose resigna-
ton as ambassador to Mexico recently
was accepted, to take effect October
IA, issued a statement attacking, as at
variance with British tradition, the re-
ported statement of the British foreign
office that recognition Of the Huerta
government had been extended by
Great Britain after Mr.. Wilson had
made "a congratulatory speech" to the
provisional president.
President Wilson read the ambas-
sador's statement and was so %incensed
at its tone and contents that he
promptly requested Secretary Bryan
to ascertain through the British en-
bassy here whether the utterance OF
the British foreign Office as reported
was correct, and the dismissal Of Am
bassador Wilson by summary accept
ance of his resignation to take effect
Immediately was under consideration
by the administration.
Dispatches from John Lind, personal
representative in Mexico OF President
Wilson, indicated that he was IN per.
sonal touch with Federico Gamboa,
Mexican minister Of foreign affairs,
and was preparing to submit the rep
RESERVATIONS Of the United States on
the restoration of peace in Mexico.
Japan's d~eclination to receive Gen
Felix Diaz as special ambassador from
President Huerta was officially con,
flrmed here today.
Secretary Bryan and President vii
son will discuss the reported statement
Of the British foreign office that Great
Britain recognized the Huerta govern,
ment only Professionally, pending an
election, and that Great Britain
France and Germany had accorded
recognition after "a congratulatory
speech" to President Huerta by Am
bassador Henry Lane Wilson, dean Of
the diplomatic corps in Mexico City.
II OLuCAdA AAI0A pActdtAOA VI Liz
British statement, which Is credited
by administration Off cials, though the,
now will formally inquire into its au
thenticity. has been that Great Britain
had expected the United States also
to recognize the Huerta government,
because Ambassador Wilson had reat
the speech.
Through his order for the release or
$40, 900 bonds of Emmanuel Castrillt
Brito. fugitive governor of the Mexican
state OF Campeche and who was helt
at New Orleans on charges Of murder
and larceny preferred by the Huerts
government, Attorney General Nc
