Either Course Useless
Mr.. O'Shaughnessy expressed the opin-
ion that either course would be useless.
In the end they agreed to present the
case to President Wilson, embodying the
representations of President Huerta' s
counsellors, together with an appeal for
postponement of action directed at lifting
the embargo on arms and ammunition, or
such other action as had been decided
upon.
1t is believed that General Huerta.
through his counsellors, proposes to pre-
sent a plan something in the nature of a
substitute. He is said to be reconciled
to the idea of resigning from the presi-
dency, zut wants to submit his resigna-
ton to the new Congress, the body which
President Wilson, through Mr.. Lind, has
declared must not convene. Huerta s
friends and those in his cabinet who
are attempting to induce him to yield.
have been informed that there are GER
tain measures CONGRESS- might adopt to
which the United States would be unal-
terably opposed and that If any plan de-
vised by them involves the convening of
Congress, it would be well to sign papers
in which should be set forth exactly what
measures this new law-making body ex-
poets to pass upon and to see to 1t that
Sucn measures as are Regarded Dy WASH
ington as Objectionable are excluded.
The statement made by the minister
of finance Wednesday night that he
had been unable to present Mr.. Linds
message to General Huerta was veri-
fled today. The Provisional President
had gone on a visit to Tlalapam,
suburb. without the formality of noti-
flying his personal friends or official
associates. 1t WAS not until a late
hour last night that those. entrusted
with the task of giving him Mr.. Lind s
message We're able to locate him.
The announcement today of Mr..
Linds departure from the capital and
the circumstances attending 1t excited
only casual comment among Mexican9
A number of Americans left for Vera
Cruz, but the capital as a whole lost
none of its accustomed calm.
Considerable anxiety was evident at

Mexico City, November 13--Members of
President Huerta's official family are
working diligently for the reopening of
the negotiations and claim to have the
consent of General Huerta to make con-
cessions which they believe will be sat

There are four miles of fine road now between Var ner and the farm gate, that was for merly almost impossible in winter months, being three feet or more deep in mud This made the problem of getting the cotton to the railroad an expensive one, it requiring four mules to pull six bales of cotton to the rail- road, and only one trip could be made a day. Now two mules can trot to the railroad with a full load of cotton in two hours, and three trips can be made daily. The road has been built by an improvement district, the state doing it's part in the way of labor.
