Mikado's Government.
Washington, Aug. 13.-The prob.
ability that President Wilson will get
the sympathy and moral support Of
the powers for the policy he has
evolved for settling the Mexican prob.
lem was empasized by two develop.
ments. One was the reported intima-
ton of the Japanese government to
the Mexican diplomatic representa-.
tive at Toxic that tbs mikado will not
receive Gen. Felix Diaz whom Presi-
dent Huerta has sent as special en-
voy to extend the thanks of Mexico
for Japanese participation in the
Mexican centennial celebration.
The other development that is re-
garded as significant is a statement
by the British foreign Office empasiz-
ing the fact that Great Britain in rec
ognizfng the Huerta government
made it clear that it regarded Huerta
as a provisional president, who was
expected to rule only until a constitu-
CAOuClA C1CCIIOu was uO1O.
Wilson Confident of Cooperation.
These two developments bear out
the statement already made in these
dispatches that President Wilson has
reason to feel confident of the sym
pathy, if not the active cooperation
Of the powers in his attempt at Dr1
ing peace to Mexico.
The action of the Japanese govern
ment in refusing General Diaz an
audience with the mikado was re-
garded here as evidencing the resent
ment of japanese at the temerity Of
the Huerta government in permitting
pro-Japanese demonstrations and TO-
menting pro-Japanese talk in Mexico
City and Vera Cruz, when it was
known that these occurrences would
be construed as anti-American in
spirit.
Japanese Demonstration Called Of.
The demonstrations referred to
came few weeks ago, preceding the
arrival of the new Japanese ambas-
sador to Mexico, and it was evident
that they were designed solely to ex'
press the friendliness of Mexicans to-
ward Japan in the matter of her Dip
lomatic difficulties with the United
States over alien land legislation in
California The pro-Japanese talk
was regarded here as purely artifi.
cial and intended to draw the United
States into recognition of the Huerta
government through fear of Mexican
relations with Japan. 1t was at that
time that President Huerta an
nounced the appointment Of General
Diaz as special envoy to visit Japan
Later President Huerta put an end
to the demonstrations and forestalled
a big reception of welcome which had
been arranged for the new Japanese
minister at Vera Cruz. Japanese Of
ficials were reported at the time as
being displeased at the risk Of anita
gonizing the United States against
JAPANESE which was involved in these
demonstrations. It is believed that
the intimation Of the mikado's inabil-
ity to receive Diaz grew out OF this
c1spleasure. .-~
