FORMAL INQUIRY
AS TO ATTITUDE
OF GREAT BRITAIN
Act of British Minister to Mexico
Regarded as Unsym-
& pathetic.
NO CHANGE IN SITUATION
Development Regarded as Init
mation That United States
Wants Free Hand.

| Washington, October 2o.-While there
was no change in either the status
OF affairs at Mexico City or the Amer
lean policy. an international phase Of
the Mexican situation that attracted
wide attention tonight was the formal
inquiry made earlier to-day BY Ambas-
sador Page ut London rs to what was
construed here as an unsympathetic
attitude toward tho United States by
Sir Lionel Garden, the British min
lister TO Mexico.
inquiry was a confidential report TO the
State Department. the contents of
which were not divulgcd here. 1t is
known, however, that what particular
~ displeascd both President Wilson and
Secretary Bryan was the presentation
by Sir Lionel of his credentials to Pro
after the latter had proclaimed him
self dictator. The American govern
mcnt felt that Hucrtas notification
of the Mexican constitution not only
by his arrest of the deputies. but by
his assumption of Legislative powers
had so altered affairs in the Mexican
we'll have withheld his presentation Of
credentials.
Inquiry was directed to determine
whether the British Foreign Office had
instructed Sir Lionel to present. Ger
dentials, not withstanding Huerta's as
sumption of powers,
lnt VI tNe bTlllSn Of
eign Office noted in press dispatches
| that the presentation OF the credentials
was merely Il coincidence and not an
tagonistic TO the American point OF
view was not commented on by Off
Gals tonight.
| Diplomatic circles interpreted the new
development as strongly intimating to

to have Il free hand in dealing with
| the Mexican problem.
| Secretary Bryan, when asked o-day
whether he would comment on the let =
ter of resignation of Henry Lane Will
son, former ambassador to Mexico, said
| Il do not care To discuss it and do
