Wilson SEES NO
CRISIS IN MEXICO
Denies Am1a ~ldOr Suggested
ilt3rYaltiOl
NOT TO MAKE WARuKE MOVE

The President Also Feels That the
Situation Has Failed % Excite Pub
Tic Mind In This Country.
President Wilson does not believe
the public mind in the United states
is excited over the situation in Mexico
nor is he convinced that a crisis has
yet been reached in the resolution.
This information was obtained IN
official circles with an authoritative
denial that any proposal looking to-
ward a cooperation between American
military forces and the Mexican gov
ernment for the restoration Of peace
had been suggested.
Ambassador Wilson, Immediately at
ter his conference with President Wit
son, said: THE discussion ielated sn-
tirely to the facts Of the situation in
Mexico and not at all to any question
OF governmental policy. All views rela-
tive to the situation have been placed
in the hands of the president for his
consideration"
It was learned at the White House
that reports crediting Ambassador
Wilson with having advocated a set
of proposals contemplating military
cooperation with Mexico or interven-
ton, were unfOunded. The president
has received from Ambassador Wilson
a historical account of events in Mex
leo in the last three years.
The ambassador declared that he had
not mentioned any remedies on the
situation to any one, and had not even
put on paper the plans he had in mind.
He had reserved these, he said for his
personal interview with the president.
Just before Ambassador Wilson
went into conference with the presi-
dent he referred in conversation with
inqurers to the proposals for solution
of the Mexican difficulty. He dictated
this statement, which he said he was
anxious to have reach the Mexican
people especially:
with reference to published pro-
posals, l disclaim all responsibility for
them; their origin is unknown to me,
and [ regret that anything like them
was made public"
Contradictory information has reach
ed the washington government regard
ing the stability of the Huerta admin
istration It was said to be question
Of reliability Of infOrmants. Officials
declined to state which reports were
credited.
Secretary Bryan, after a call at the
White House. sought information
through a conference with Mr.. Brown,
president of the Mexican National
Railways, on traffic conditions in Mex
leo and their relation to the paralyzed
condition Of commerce and industry.
Latest reports from the embassy in
Mexico City have reelected the tinan-
cial situation.
The president authorized the state
ment that nothing had happened in the
past ten days to make the situation
better or worse The president re-
fused to make any comment upon the
attempted assassination Of Charles B.
| Dixon. the American immigration Off
cial. who was shot at Juarez on Sat
urday, because. he said, be did not
have all the facts in the case before
him. The president gave assurance,
however, that he had ordered a rigid
Investigation. and that the state de-
partment would de everything possible
to bring the guilty parties to Justice
