Washington, September l0-Manuel

Mexico to the United States arrived
here TO-DAY for the understood pur-
pose Of negotiating with the Wilson
administration on behalf OF Provisional
President Hucrta
Senor Zamacona who p-eecrved an
attitude OF mystery as to the object
OF his mission. was received a, the
Union Station BY officials OF the Mexi-
can Embassy. While declining to dis
cuss his special mission 10 Washing
ton, the Hucrta envoy did make the
important announcement that notices
for the presidential election to be held
in Mexico in October have already been
posted by direction OF Hucrta
When asked for further Information
his only reply was: "A beggar has
nothing to give"
Hucrta Stacks Cards.
The administration Is keenly inter
ested In the apparent determination
OF Huerta 10 hold an election with the
cards stacked In his own favor. He
is now in absolute control OF nearly
all OF the central and southern part
OF Mexico. with the exception OF More
los The States OF Chihuahua, Duran
go, Sonora and Tabasco under the
present regime have absolutely no
chance to participate in free and
fair election consequently the Car
rama following may be depended upon
TO refuse to accept the results OF the
proposed ballot for the presidency
Announcement was made to-day by
officers of General Woods STAFF that the
Carranza forces in the northern pro-
vinces now number about thirty thou
sand. twenty thousand of these being
we'll armed. With such force in the
tinue their resistance to Huerta for n
long time to come An armistice Is on
the face OF things an utter impossi-
bility.
Northern States May Separate.
In the opinion of some officials at
the State Department, the Northern
States are rs good as lost to the Rcpub-
lie and one possibility is that they
may separate from Mexico, whether or
not they are assured of recognition by
this government. In any event, they
are prepared TO maintain their indie
pendence against Huerta unless his
administration receives some uneX-
pected outside financial mid.
Sonora, Chihuahua, Durango and
Tabasco cannot, under the Huerta re-
gime. participate in Il free and fair
election.
1t is stated at the White House that
the administration knows of no new
propositions to Huerta through Mr.
OShaughnessy or Mr.. Lind. 1t has
been reported that Mr.. Lind has moved
to OriZaba on the way to Mexico City
and from this 1t has been argued that
some new negotiations are under way
There has been no recession by the
Wilson administration from the three
propositions already advanced, two of
the important ones of which are that
there shall be an armistice. and that
Huerta shall not be n candidate at the
election.

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

New York. Oct. 1S.-It was only after q
further recession Of prices that the stock
market this week showed signs of suf-
cient absorptive power to resist effectively
the force of depression. The necessity of
securing resources to meet new commit
ments in foreign markets apparently was
the cause Of this liquidation. The field
Of these new commitments abroad was in
dicated by the news Of the practical failure
of q number OF Colonial loans In London,
the violent slump in the New Brazilian is
sue and by the preparations for a coming
Government loan in p4riS. The troubles
in Mexico increased foreign depression.
That new financing in the New YORK
market must also sometime be provided for
was intimated by one or two actual new
bond issues and by reports Of compre-
bensi7e plans for several railroad sys-
tens.
The discouraging views Of the outlook
usual in & period of declining prices were
nreyalent. Rumor based on no tangible
DEVELOPMENTS had il that the admlnistra-
don at Washington was planning eNten
siye legislation on antitrust lines.
Assertions made in some of the public
criticisms Of the Glass owen currency bill
had An unsettling influence Oh the senti

WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW.

New York, oct. 1S.-This week the cot
ton market saw what appeared to b" the
finish Of the wide reaction after the long
continued advance of the early fall, and the
beginning Of n new bnll movement. At the
end of the week it WAS rumored that prom
inent local traders had left for New York
and this was taken TO be significant in
connection with developments concerning
the spot position in the future market.
The net prices OF the week were an adj
vance Of u to % points. The high prices
were made on Friday and the low prices
on Wednesday. At the highest the trading
months were SO to 81 points over last
weeks close; at the loves, they were 26 to
q points under. The range was IS to 60
points.
Up to the middle OF the week the re-
action downward IVES still on. but q change
for the worse IN weather conditions gave
the bulls the upper hand.
At the close Of the week there was Z
very good tone in spite Of the unfavorable
attitude Of the English market.
After the middle Il the week consider

the precipitation was considered TO have
done much damage. Spot men claimed
