Small Crowd Greets Special
Envoy at Mexico City,
INTENDS TO MOVE SLOWLY
Believes His Work in Mexico Will g..
Completed in Three Weeks and
Possibly Sooner.

City of Mexico, Aug. 12.-John Line,
the personal emissary of President
Wilson, has thus far had a compare
lively uneventful experience in Mex
leo.
Before leaving Vera Cruz Mr.. Lind
ehe military commander there, he be-
ing the first official Of Mexico to meet
the emissary. The meeting took place
at the train just before Mr.. Lind's de-
partUre, and General Mas also did
him the honor to parade a small de-
tachment of troops alongside his
train
The mOnOtony of the trip in the reg
uar day train from Vera Cruz to the
capital was broken by an enforced de-
lay by the wreck Of train ahead in
OF rebel operations.
M. Lind declared here he did not
have the slightest intention of dis
cuSslng affairs regarding Mexico with
private individuals. He said his bust
ness was with official Mexicans and
that he would be very careful with
whom he talked There need be no
apprehension, he added, that hs
would embarrass the government by
! ,tndiscretion of that sort.
There is reason to believe that be
fore his mission to Mexico is ended
Mr.. Lind will have suggested more
than the mere fultllment of the prom.
Use by General Huerta that elections
be held 1t has been pointed out that
such demand is not wholly consis
tent, since the promise to hold cleo
tions in October has already been
made, and limitations of bad faith
are out of taste at the present time
Mr.. Lind does not propose to act
hastily, though he will lose no time,
and it may be that all his work in
Mexico will be finished in three weeks,
and possibly much sooner If General
Huerta persists in being unwilling to
see him. O'Shaughnessy, the charge
affaires, will transmit Lind's COM
municatiOns.
The arrival of Mr.. Lind has been
devoid OF any thrills. When the per-
eonal representative of President Will
son aIighted from his train after a
'tedioua days journey from Vera Cruz
only a few persons were about the
station

Great Western Agrees on Test for
Four Months.
Judge c. A. Willard of the United
States district court, sitting at st.
Paul., signed an order directing the
Great Western railroad to put the Min.
nesota legal rates for passengers and
freight into effect four months, begin
ming Oct. 1, as test period to deter
mine whether or not the rates are
confiscatory.
The order was the result of a stipu-
lation agreed to by attorneys for the
state and for the railroad and the plan
is one proposed at former hearing
by T. D. O'Brien, of counsel for the
state. This order disposes for the
present of the states suit to compel
the road to put in the legal rates. The
road already has agreed to comply
with the 2-ceut fare law, but has only
reduced freight rates to meet compe-
tition.
