President Takes Action i'm the
Case of Henry Lane
Wilson
WILL MAKE APOLOGY
TO GREAT BRITAIN
Through Ambassador Page in London
Remarks of the Ambassador to
Mexico Regarded as Insulting to
England-Wilson May Reply.

WASHINGTON, August 15.-Presi-
dent Wilson last night publicly repri-
manded Ambassador Henry Lane Viii
son for his recent attack on the British
foreign office. Ambassador Page was
instructed to express to Sir Edward
Grey the regret of the American gov
crnment that a diplomatic official OF
the United States - should have been
guilty of such an impropriety.'' The
action of the administration at Wash
ington followed receipt of a cablegram
from Ambassador Page officially con
trming the Associated Press dispatch
which had quoted a statement from the
British government that it had reeog-
nized the Huerta regime in Mexico
along with France and Germany after
IA congratulatory speech to Presi-
dent Huerta by Ambassador Wilson on
behalf of the diplomatic corps in Mex
leo City
The official Interpretation of the
statement at Washington was that
Britain at the time believed from Am
bassador Wilson 5 act that the United
States intended to recognize the
hQerta governments. Ambassador VIII
son in an authorized interview declar-
ed that if the statement really ema-
nated from the British foreign office
! it was "a pure subterfuge unworthy
Of the British foreign Office and .,at
variance with its traditions and with
the character it has maintained before
the world for two centuries.
Secretary Bryan, after a conference
with the President last night, then sent
fhe following cablegram to Ambassador
/ Page: 1.-The interview given to the
press yesterday by Mr.. Henry Lane
/ Wilson, whose resignation as amhassa-
dor to Mexico has been accepted. to
take effect mt the end of his vaca-
ton, October Il, having been brought
to the President 5 attention, he directs
me to ask YOU to call at the British
foreign Office and say to Sir Edward
Grey that he disclaims all responsible
ty for Mr. Wilson 5 action in the mat
ter and for the language employed by
him in his interview, and that he re-
erets exceedingly that diplomatic
official in the employ of this govern
ment should have been guilty of such
an impropriety.

DUAL ADMINISTRATION
AT CAPITOL IN ALBANY
Both Sulzer and Glynn Acting as Chief
acknowledgements for
Long Siege.

ALBANY, N. y, August Is. = The
second day of the dual administration
in New York dawned on whirlpool
of confusion in the capitol \ steel
chain with a heavy paddock secured the
great seal, and the privy seal was un-
der lock and key, while the way to the
executive chamber of William Sulzer S
citadel was bolted and barred, and
from two offices the rival claimants to
the governor s chair continued to eXer-
else their functions. Control Of the
National Guard, access to the great
seal and recognition by the secretary
of state was accorded to Lieut.. Gov.
Glvnn who claims to be acting chief
executive. The possession of the privy
seal, whose imprint vaIidates afl docu-
ments coming before the governor on
all affairs within the state and the occ
cupancy of the executive chamber re
manned with Sulzer, the impeached
governor. 1t was Glynn 5 move on the
political chess board today. Mrs. Sui
ger lay i'll of a nervous disorder, un-
able to see her friends. Two physi-
clans remained at her bedside. Prepara-
tions are being made for long siege.
The locks on every door leading to the
chambers and the governor 5 private
office have been changed and an at
tendant is stationed at each entrance.

READINESS TO PAY
INDEMNITY TO JAPAN
Reports in Toxic About the Attitude
OF the United States Toward
Japs in California.


TOXIC, Japan, August 15.-It is an
nounced here that the United States
has intimated a readiness to favor in
principle the payment of indemnity to
the japanese subjects who have been
affected by the California anti-alien
land ownership legislation, and has al
50 recognized the right of Japan to
adopt measure similar to the Califor-
MIA bill. From intimations given in
otfNial circles it appdars unlikely that
Japan will adopt either idea. 1t is
said that what Japan desires is perma-
nent friendly relations with the United
States, and that the country therefore
seeks a fundamental solution Of the
difficulty

Thinks BrattlebOrO House Site
Would Look Better
That Way
STONE WALL WOULD
COST NEARLY $4,000
the Park as Good an Appearance as
Graded Bank Covered With Grass
Decision Wanted Soon.

If it were my property l should
certainly slope it instead of building
either n stone or cement waH,'' said
Frederick Holbrook of the Holbrook,
Cabot Rollins corporation in reply to
a direct question as to his preference
regarding the future appearance of the
Old Brattleboro House site.
The railroad company, as Mr.. HoI-
brook understands it, is ready to do
whatever it may ultimately be decided
IS the better way, or the more satisfac-
tory, but 'as Mr.. Holbrooll pointed out
this morning, once the decision is made
there Will be no retracting. That the
decision must be made soon by some
one in order not to deIav matters he
pointed out as a necessity.
Mr.. lIolbrook made it clear that he
had no desire to inject his opinion into
the controversy, but said that a slope
would present better view from Nam
street than would wall even though
the wall were to be vine covered. With
the dead end corner of Hudson street
rounded off, as the railroad engineers
have planned to do and with low
granite wall of four or five feet in
height at that corner extending around
q short distance on the Bridge street
front with a slope down to the top of
the wall, the greatest length of the
| slope at any point would be matter of
4 II feet. The slope would gradually in
crease from nothing at the Canal street
end of Hudson street to II feet at the
4 highest point and would enroaeh on
the fiat surface of the future park, if no
4 low wall was built, distance of %
/ feet. With 4 low wall around the cor
4 ner Of Hudson and Vernon streets ex-
ending 20 or 30 feet along the front
on Bridge street, the slope would be
cut down to where it would occupy less
4 than Is feet of the fiat surface at the
highest point, especially if the surface
was filled two feet as it should be to
bring it to the street level for drainage
purposes.
Speaking of a wall Mr. Holbrook said
that cement wall would cost approx
mately $500 and a first class stone wall
about $4,000 while a wall such as is be-
ing laid to hold the bank at the lower
end of Vernon street could be built for
$1,000 or thereabouts.
lie added that he could not see the
sense in this portion of the country of
breaking up good stone into small bits
and mixing it with cement to make a
wall when stone for a better appearing
wall was to be had for the picking up.
As for growing grass on the slope he
said that with bottom of broken stone,
such as would be made in the event
that a slope is the final decision, and
with two feet of loan on top the
ground sloped at the proper angle, there
would not be the slightest difficulty and
proper drainage would be assured.
AS the contractor he would he glad
to have the wall decided upon; but for
appearances Mr.. Holbrook thinks it
would be a mistake
