P|QUE LED BRYAN
SAYS LANE WILSON
SHOWED PARTISAN ZEAL AND
TEMPESTUOUS HASTE IN DIS
CREDITINs. HIM.

SPOKANE, WASH. Oct 20
Henry Lane Wilson made public today
a charge that Secretary of state
Bryan. through ptque. spontaneously
and unjustly discredited him as a
diplomatic officer o. the United States
and at the same time exposed to the
British foreign office the spirit Of
hazardous adventure which presides
over the State department"
The secretary also was accused #
making plain to Great Britain 'the
possibility of errors at any moment
in future diplomatic exchanges
Bryan. he says. was prompted by
partisan - zeal and acted with
"tempestuous haste
The accusations were made when
Wilson rendered his resignation an
am bassador 10 Mexico, and hts letter
was written in Indianapolis. August
2sth. last Since Huerta assumed the
dictatorship Wilson has repeated his
assertion that Huerta is needed in his
present place IL peace in Mexico Is
to he restored.
Wilson. in his letter to Bryan, made
public today, said:
II have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt Of your note of August
14th, transmitting a copy of tele-
graphic instruction of the department
of state to the American ambassador
in London, directing him to disclaim
all responsibility on the part of this
government for an interview attri-
buted TO me.
THE closing paragraph of the in
struction referred to, says that the
president regrets exceedingly that a
diplomatic official of this government
should have been guilty of such an
improperly.
''rhe last paragraph of your note
to mo says that the president does not
go further at this time. because he
takes II for granted that the action
which he has been obliged to take In
this matter viii be to you sufficient
reminder Of your Official obligation
Wilson reviews the circumstances
leading up to the instruction to the
ambassador in London. A London dis
patch was published In this country
on August 18th. saying that one of
the factors determining British reeog-
milton of the Mexican provisional gov
ernment was tho congratuiatory
speech OF the American ambassador on
the occasion of Huerta's reception to
the diplomatic corps"
Wilson says he did not believe this
came from an official British source.
and had decided TO maintain an atti-
tude of reserve until in the next two
days he read in the press articles "evi-
IDENTIFY inspired from administration
sources containing expression OF graft
flcation over the supposed propitiatory
Legislation" of the British government.
1T seemed apparent TO me that this
was the first evidence of your inten-
ton to publicly question my official
acts" he continues, land / accordingly
gave to the press the interview refer
red to-
The interview. he asserted, could not
possibly be construed as an expression
of the views of this government, as
Bryan had announced Wilson's volun-
tary resignation. He continues.
.'Thereupon, with tempestuous
haste, and apparently prompted by
partisan zeal, you dispatched an TN
struotion to the American ambassa-
dor In London. directing him 70 apol-
