lIAIM ULTIMATE SUCCESS CERTAIN Administration 1s Positive As To Plans For

Atrocity at Juarez and Light Sen. tences Imposed, Causes Secretary
 Bryan to Investigate.

Washington, Nov. 1.-The rapid changes of the past twenty-four hours in the Mexican situation have failed to shake the confidence of the administration in the ultimate success of it's plans for the elimina- ton of Huerta.
 It was intimated that the busting of Senor Aldape, who had taken the lead among members of the cabinet in seeking to reopen negotiations with Special Envoy Lind would not have any effect upon the plans of this government.
 The reports received from Juarez of the execution of captured rederals by General Villa, the rebel leader, caused some anxiety today, but it was announced at the State Depart ment that the reports were conflict ing and that an investigation had been ordered.
 The last atrocity committed at
 Juarez, was that in which United States official was set upon by Mexi- can soldiers and nearly done to death. The president and Mr. Bryan ordered an investigation and inn mediate punishment. The result was that the perpetrators of the outrage were sentenced to twenty-four hours in jail. An explanation of this light sentence has been demanded from the Huerta administration.
 What has apparently stung the ad- ministration in the Juaraz atrocities is that notwithstanding all the pre- vious proof of the character of the bandits under Carranza and their murders at Torreon and elsewhere, the White House and State Depart me1t continued to treat in general family matter through Hale with Carranza until this government was snubbed by Carranza himself. Closes Senet COmmunica lion. Secretary Bryan would neither ed- init nor deny today that the order ing of Aldape out of the country oy Huerta closed the last avenue of secret communication between the White House and Mexico. It is sus- pected here that some emissary of the government ever since John Lind went to Mexico has been endeavor-
 hg to impress upon the opponents of
 Huerta in Mexico City that, if Huerta
 could he gotten to resign in favor of
 pro-America1 candidate, that can
 aldate would get money to set Mexico
 on Its feet. In fact, it has been stat ed that MT. Lind was working on
 'hese lines. but not specifically with

 persons as an endorsement of the
