US. AMBASSADORTO MEXICO
IS CALLED TO WASHINGTON
Conference Will Be Held to Discuss Conditions
in that Republic is Said to Be
Grave-Believed That Germany Has Asked
United States to Intervene.

WASHINGTON, July 16.-Actine
.on Instructions from President Will
son, Secretary Bryan cabled Ambassa-
dor Wilson at Mexico City to come to
Washington Immediately for a con-
ference on the Mexican situation. The
president desires a detailed report OF
conditions. The hope of the admins
tration to postpone action in regard
tc Mexico until after the October cleo
tions in that country, Is believed to be
destroyed as a result of information
and representations of Great Britain.
1t is understood the British foreign
office practically has served notice to
the state department that the United
States must guarantee peace in Mex
leo under the Monroe doctrine. other
European nations are expected to fol-
low. The situation is regarded as
delicate. Reports from American
consuls in Mexico indicate the anti
American sentiment is growing. Am
erica is virtually the only civilized
nation Withholding recognition of the
Huerta government
1t is feared that IL the United States
recognizes Huerta it will be construed
as backdown and that Huerta will
become more arrogant than ever. The
fact that the Huerta government has
not been recognized makes 1t difficult
to adequately protest against the
treatment accorded American resi-
dents.
Ambassador Wilson is prevented
from acting in concert with represen-
'tatives of the other powers in Mexico

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
GROWING BETTER IN

That the business and financial sit

look is favorable Is the view of G. NJ
Rice, cashier of the First National
bank, who returned this morning
from visit in Portland following a
six weeks outing at Newport He is
likewise impressed that Umatilla
county will produce a good wheat
crop this summer crop in some
sections larger than was harvested
last season.
According to Mr.. Rice businessmen
generally regard the tariff legislation
as something decided upon and there
is an end to uncertainty on that score.
The currency bill is also meeting with
more favor than was first accorded
1t and seems in line to meet With
public approval In the view of Mr.
Rice the provision whereby the CON
troll of the reserves will rest in the
hands of the government and not
with the bankers is a sound provision
