WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. IL
President wilson let it be known to-
day that he was inclined to believe
there was an organized desire pro-
ceeding from sources unknown to
him to bring on war between the
United states. and Mexico.
The. president does not regard the
movement as extensive but as very
troublesome and referred to misrep-
resentation in some Individual news
papers. He indicated that he shared
somewhat the views of Senator VIII
liams, who declared in speech late
Saturday that an organized lobby ex-
lists to involve the United States in
war. There is no occasion for
alarm in the opinion Of the presi-
dent, who told callers today that
within the last forty eight hours the
Mexican situation had improved ma
terially.
1t was made clear by the presi-
dent those with whom he discussed
the situation that the instructions
to John Lind, his personal represent
alive, were chiefly to inform the
American government how things
stood generally in Mexico and what
and just what was the opportunity
for the good offices of the Unitei
States in the interests OF peace.

When His Automobile Turns
over and Throws Him
against Wire Fence

Alvin d. BasseIl, OF Lost Greek, one
of the most prominent horse and cat
lie men in West Virginia, is in a SER
ious condition in a local hospital, suf-
fering from injuries received at Z
o'clock Sunday evening on the Duck
creek road three miles from West Mil
ford, when his automobile went over
an embankment His right eye was
torn out, his right jaw bone broken.
and the right side of his face crush-
ed in. 1t is believed that slight inter-
nal injuries were also inflicted. The
attending physicians express the opin-
ion that he will recover unless blood
poison sets in.
Mr.. Bassel and Edward Edmond,
of Jane Lew, a prominent cattle deal
or. had been to Elkins and they pass
ed through this city in the afternoon
enroute home. Mr. BasselI driving
the car took the Duck creek road to
take his companion to his home at
Jane Lew. Three miles from West
Milford he lost control of the machine
and it turned completely over side
ways down an embankment throwing
the two men out. Mr.. Bassell was
thrown against barbed wire fence
and fence wire tore his eye out. Mr..
Edmonds escaped injury. The car
