deferred to give the attorney for the de-
{endant an opportunity to famillarize
on the envelopes.

State bank, was called as an expert wit
ness. He said that be had examined be-
fore the handwriting OF the ,defenda mt
and also the handwriting In the letters
complained Of as attempting to secure
money without compensation and IL was
his opinion that they are the same.
"They are so similar" said the wit
check in the handwriting on either
paper"
However Mr.. Bigelow confessed to the
attorney for the defendant that he had
paid checks In forged signatures, In ex-
planation OF how he arrived at the con-
cluslon that the handwritngs are the
same. MT. Bigelow stated that there Is a
pronounced similarity in the general flow
''r, e. b.. t, a. c. and manv others are
almost Identical In form. He also said
that the words such as "for, to, do. be
and YOU were strikingly similar and the
letters were separated from each other
alike IN both writings, The small let
tiers "a and 'J'' bore the same form as
those letters In the two writings The
charac cteristics OF the small letters were
ali)te IN both instances. the witness said
and the capital letters were "astonisb-
inglv" similar

questions he foresaw difficult task.
The speaker said, however, that he
had been made to feel at home in
America. 81 was treated like one of

"indeed better, for I was spared the
criticism which in all modern countries
is so literally bestowed upon public
men

Bryce continued, began to make
treaties, the first thing we did was to

friendship is a great aid to business,

liant intellect, but what is even bet

both sides to every question. The
good will of the two nations was be-
hind the negotiations and it was our
good fortune to settle all the questions
outstanding between US, among them
that old and thorny controversy over
the North Atlantic fisheries which had
more than once threatened our good re-
ations.
"Many of these questions related to
Canada. / have always felt that it was

Would Water the News.

Returning hither from America, /
have two things TO say TO the British
Pilgrims gathered here as friends Of
the American people. One is that you
must not take too seriously the lurid
pictures of American life drawn in
some organs of the European press.
"1n Washington l used to be struck
by the dark view the press news from
England conveyed of British events
and conditions which / knew to be mis-
leading Here the same thing hap
pens. Cable messages and the vivid
pens of correspondents inevitably
heighten the color. Unlike stocks,
news items would be the better for be-
ing watered when they cross the sea.
"My other message is to assure you
the friendship you entertain for the
people of the United States is recipro-
Gated by them far more universally
and far more heartily than ever before.
There is a friendship of governments
and a friendship Of nations, The for
mer may shift with the shifting Of ma
terial interests or be affected by the
relations OF each power with other
powers. But the latter rests on solid
and permanent foundations. With our
two peoples it is based on a community
of speech Of literature, of institutions,
of beliefs of traditions and OF ideals
| for the future. In all these things the
British and American peoples are
closer than any other peoples can be.
Nature and history have meant them
TO be friends. ~

The nature of the instructions was not

Would Lift Embargo.

Members Of congress, and especially
many Of the senate foreign relations
committee, think the embargo should be
lifted and that the constitntionalists
would then be able by force of arms to
oust Huerta. This opinion is being
strongly urged upon President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan, but there is no
outward indication that they have
changed their attitude.
At the White house it was stated that
no ENJOYS had been sent to the border
for the government to discuss the situa.
tion with General Carranza. DR.. Henry
Allen Tupper, according to Secretary
Bryan, is not representing Carranza i'll
any negotiations with the United States,
but is giving him his own interpreta-
tion of the situation. Constitutional
ist representatives continued to deny
knowledge Of alleged parleys between
General Carranza and representative ves
OF the American government!

Outline Was Correct.

From the way White house officials
discussed the situation there existed no
doubt in official circles tonight that the
instructions to Mr.. . 'Shaughnessy to
convey the desires OF thr u.utr.i ,,.a!es
to General Huerta were substantially
as outlined In dispatches from Mexico
City last Monday, although the state de"
paTtment s denial that any Hultl-
matum' had been sent was regarded
by many conyersaut with the situation
as indicating that the United States
government, in its communication TO
Mr. o 'Shaughncssy, did not necessarily
mean that IL had said its last word.
II became evident at the White house
that the president considered the cleo
tion Of October 90 not only invalid as
to the vote on the presidency and
vice presidency, but also as to the elec-
tion of members of congress. The news
dispatches Indicated today that General
Huerta would convene the newly-elected
congress and abide by their decision as
to the legality of the elections. This
was generally looked upon here as
showing nm intention on the part of
General Huerta to have the election
nullifed, while he continued in power
indefinitely.
The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1913-11-07
No Official News.

The president made it plain to callers
he had no intention at present of plac-
ing the subject before congress. He is
in close touch with the capitol through
Chairman Bacon of the senate foreign
relations committee. 1t is not regarded
as likely that the president will make
any move until he hears from General
Huerta through Charge o 'Shaughnessy.
Although press dispatches have indi-
Gated General Huerta would refuse
to retire, it was said nothing along
this line of a definite character had
been officially received. The president,
in discussing the situation, spoke of the
loyal attitude of Charge o 'Shaughnessy.
Alternative measures that the United
States might take in event Of a relec-
tion by Huerta Of the American de.
mands we're discussed today in official
circles. Attention centered on the
proposal to remove the embargo on
arms The president indicated nothing
new had been determined upon in this
connection. In his recent address to
congress he took strong position
against giving arms to any faction.
