Washington, Aug. 22-The free
wool fight in the senate opened today
with Senator Warren Of wyoming
leading the onslaught against the tar
iff bill. Free wool he described as
"uncalled for, cruel ana unwise.' He
predicted ruin for wool growers and
high prices for mutton Ante-election

Washington, Aug. 22.--Curt warning
to both the Huerta and constitutional
ist commander at La Boquilla, Chi
huahua, Mexico, that the United
States will hold them personally re-
sponsible for any violence against
Americans by "any one claiming mill
tary authority" was sent today BY
Secretary Bryan through American
Consul Letcher at Chihuahua City.
Mr., Bryan instructed Mr.. Letcher to
delieef his message to La Boquilla by
courier and secure an answer.
His answer was in response to a re
quest by Senator. Penrose for action
to protect S. G. Hulse, Chief Engineer
Fuller and other Americans in the
plant of the Mexican Northern Power
and Irrigation company
Secretary Bryan's telegram follows
Information having been received
by this government that threats of
violence and death have been made
against Fuller, Hulse and others at
La Boquilla, this government deems
it proper to say that if any violence
is visited to any American citizen
there or elsewhere by one claiming
civil or military authority the United
States will hold personally response
bic the perpetrators thereof.
Courier should ascertain condi-
tions Of all foreigners at La Boquilla
and report with reply the officer in
charge makes to this governments
message"
The reference to the protection of
American citizens elsewhere was
taken as indicative Of the attitude
Of the United States in the protection
Of Americans wherever their safety is
threatened.

u Read Resume h Person

Washington, Aug President
Wilson will personally read his mes
sage on Mexico to both houses of
congress Monday outlining what had
been done by the United States to
bring about peace. He worked prac-
tically all today on it. Except for a
short conference with Secretary
Bryan the president denied himself
to all visitors and worked alone In
his study in the White House.
The message will summarize the
principal points made in the note
presented by John Lind and the con
tentions of the Huerta government in
reply The full text of both com
munications will be presented to con
gress as exhibits,
No recommendations for action will
be made by the presidents state
ment is expected to reiterate the at
titude of this government and indi-
cate that only on the basis therein
outlined can negotiations with the
Huerta government be continued.
White house officials reel that the
reading of the message will itself be
a factor in the situation, serving per
haps further to emphasize that the
United States will under no circum-
stances recognize any but constitu-
tional government in Mexico. The
effect Of the unyielding attitude of
the United States is said to be al
ready apparent.
Dispatches today from John Lind
indicate that Mexican administration
would not act without further parleys.
The Huerta government, it is expect
ed, is looking about for new ground
on which to renew the negotiations.
Another factor which contributes to
the optimism of administration Of
ficials is a reported disposition in Eu-
rope to deny the Huerta government
any further loans pending the out
come Of the efforts of the United
States to bring about peace.
