usual Conference.
From The Tribune Bureau. ]


Washington, Aug. 9.-President Will
son decided to take the members Of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tons into his confidence tonight. and
in a conference held in the White
House. attended by Secretary Bryan.
he explained TO them his reasons for
sending Ex-Governor Lind to Mexico
and his policy so far as il has been
formulated. Democrats who were
present predicted that there would be
entire harmony between the White
House and the Senate. 1t was declared
that President Huerta had been in
formed that he would be held strictly
accountable for the safety of the Presi-
dents personal representative.
The administration is determined to
send Mr.. Lind on to Mexico City and
10 adhere TO its position that Mr.. Lind
shall have no diplomatic standing but
solely that Of personal representative
Of the President. 1t is authoritatively
stated that no further step will be
taken until after the receipt OF advices
from Mr.. Lind.
II is further declared that Mr.. Lind
has no proposals whatever to submit
10 President Huerta or 10 any one else
in Mexico. II is pointed out that il
was impossible to authorize Mr.. Lind
to make any proposals, because the
President does not feel that he is in
possession of adequate information on
which to base intelligent action. For
this reason the entire policy of the sd-
minstratiOn. so far as Mexico is con-
cerned. is purely tentative.
To Block Discord Stories.
It is explained on high authority that
the Presidents purpose In calling all
the members Of the Foreign Relations
Committee-Republic and Demo-
crats-to the White House. was to off,
set reports of discord between the SEN
ate and the administration. which re-
ports IT is believed, have been furnish
ing some degree of encouragement
both TO President Huerta and to his
opponents in Mexico.
II was also authoritatively stated
tonight that no reply had yet been re-
,eived from the Mexican government TO
he latest message from Washington
explaining that Mr.. Linds mission
was one purely Of friendship. This
government simply sent 10 General
Huerta a statement Of fact and the
message does not necessarily call for a
response.
Every member Of the Committee on
Foreign Relations. Republicans and
Democrats, who was in the city re-
sponded 10 he Presidents call. I'm
