DEFINITE STATEMENT
WILL BE REQUIRED

Unless the representations to be made
by Mr. O'Shaughnessy in the next TWEEN
ty-four hours are considerably more def
mite than the statement issued yesterday
afternoon by Mr.. Bryan. II is predicted
that they will be absolutely without ef-
feet on the situation in Mexico City, and
will not in the least mobility the Huerta
government or reconcile it to Lind's mis-
sion. 1t was recalled yesterday that
the statement of the Minister Of For
eign Affairs. declaring Lind's presence
in Mexico undesirable unless he brought
recognition and proper credentials. was
issued after Mr.. Bryans message Of
two days ago had been received. This
message, which was the first attempt of
the administration to stop the incen-
diary statements from Mexico City. ad-
monished the Huerta government that
1t should wait until Lind arrived and
the Presidents proposals were presented
before II took any offence at his COM
ing. Mr.. Bryan in that message blamed
the newspapers for the impression Mex
leo City has received Of the object of
Lind's mission.

fairs at his house, where two other
members Of the Huerta cabinet were in
conference. All three officials saw the

as lncreolpie, ana yesterday received

 PLAN BATTLE FOR
 EXCISE MEASURES
CBy Our Staff Corres.)

Hartford, April 1.-Two very irnpor- tant excise matters are expected to come up in the House at the session next Tuesday, and are likely to cause considerab debate before they are finally disposed of. One is the bill presen ted by Representative C. H. King of Fairfield which increases the cost of a liquor license from $450 to $75O a year. This bill will be pressed by the temperance interests and al- though unfavorably reported by the committee 8 strong effort will be made to secure it's adoption despite the un- favorable report
 The other measure is hardly less im- portant and will cause quite much discussion. It provides that the num- Der of saloons in any town shall be limited to one for each 1000 of the population. This will has also been un- favorabIy reported, but the effort to secure it's passage will be deter mined one.
