Negotiations
 with Mexico
WILSON TO DISCUSS THEM IN
 SPECIAL MESSAGE
MAY READ IT HIMSELF
Will be Presented to Congress Next Monday-WiiI Give Text of America's Proposal and the Reply of Huerta.

Washington, Aug. 21.-President Will son was at work tonight on a special message which he probably will read to both houses of congress next Mon day relating in detail the negotiations which have been conducted through his personal representative. John Lind. with the Huerta government in Mex ico.
 The decision to make comprehen- SlVe statement on the situation to con- gress was reached today after the president had about concluded that the negotiations between MT. Lind and Provisional President Huerta since the exchange of notes had not developed new basis for discussion.
 May Read Message Himself.
 With his message the president will present the two notes setting forth the American suggestions to the Huerta government and it's reply. Should he read the document himself which he is being urged to do by members of his cabinet and to which idea he is strongly inclined, it will be the first time since the days of George Wash ington that a president has communi- cated a. matter of foreign policy in person to the legislative branch of the government While there was no in formation from the White House to indicate what object it was hoped to accomplish through such a message at this time. there was a, well defined be- lief in official circles that President Wilson thinks the reading of an ad- dress which will lay the American viewpoint and the Huerta contentious before the congress and people of this country, and which also will be made public to the world generally, cannot but have an important effect m the situation in Mexico.
 Republicans Uphold President. It is expected to be 9. partial an- swer to the intirnations of Provisional President Huerta in his note that President Wilson stands alone in his Mexican policy and unsupported gen orally in congress. The first refutation of this Huerta supposition came in the senate today when prominent re- publicans vigorously upheld the hands of the president The expressions of confidence in the wisdom and good faith of President Wilson were made cession after Senator Penrose of Penn sylvanfa, republican, had introduced a resolution to require the president to place American troops in Mexico to protect American lives. No action was taken on the resolution
 No Partisanshp in Matter.
 President Wilson reiterated to cali- CTS today that he had absolutely no intention of taking any drastic meas ures, denied that Secretary Garrison of the war department had been called back to Washington and referred to the fact that MT. Garrison would take 8 vacation after his inspection trip in the west was ended.
 He incidentally complimented repub- hcan senators op their spirit Of CO., operation. emphattcally stating there had not been the slightest exhibition of partiSanShip.
 Believe Huerta DeIuded.
 That Provisional President Huerta has advanced the idea that recognition of his government is a partisan ques- democratic party is not actually dom inant, is admitted by administration otfrciaIs, but they believe that if such an ilIuSiun exists in Mexico it shortly will be dissipated, not only by news of todayS debate in the senate. but by the expectation that congress in some way will show its confidence in the preSi- dent when he reads his message
 No Thought of Armed Intervention
 It is not known yet whether Presi- dent Wilson will make any specific recommendations in his message, but it was learned from g. high govern nent official that his statement of the case will be the foundation for the next step on the part of the United States The president has made 1t plain. however, that he has no thought of armed intervention and tbat he was as determined as ever to maintain an attitude of peace and frlendftness tow ard Mexico,
 MT. Lind probably will remain in Mexico City indefinitely and his re- ports indicate that he has not ahan- doned hope.
