Refusal Of Mexico to Receive Amer.
lean Representative.

lean Representative.
Washington, Aug -9.-Despite all at
tempts to assume an attitude of op-
t1mism there was some grave appre-
hens1On in official circles over the re-
ception which will be accorded John
Lind, President Wilson's personal rep
resentative, when he lands in Vera
Cruz
Official circles have insisted and
were still insisting that the open at
titude Of opposition adopted by the
Huerta government was a bold bluff
in last final attempt to force recog-
milton.
If it is, all will be we'll. But, if not,
and Lind, who has been openly &C
copied by President Wilson in public
announcements as his personal repre-.
sentative, is mOlested the government
will be confronted with a situation
Identical with that which followed the
blowing up OF the battleship Maine in
Havana harbor in 1898.
Lind may fail in his mission and
no trouble result. The existing gov
eminent may decline to adopt any
suggestion from him and he may have
to return here with empty hands.
Then 1t would be up to the president
to initiate his second step already
planned, although carefully guarded.
Would Be an Act of War.
But an indignity to Lind, either by
the Mexican officials or a mob, which
followed official suggestion, would
practically amount to an act OF war
which would necessitate armed re-
prisals.
Huerta will very probably force his
hana in Mexico City within the next
three days. The provisional presi-
dent of Mexico is soldier utterly de-
void of diplomacy. Those who know
him best would not be surprised if he
CURLY orders Lind to remain on board
the New Hampshire and return to Gal.
weston.
A press dispatch quotes Huerta as
saying that the limit of patience had
been reached so far as the United
States was concerned and that he had
decided to resist with arms any fur
Their attempt on the part of the Unit.
ed States to interfere in Mexican at.
fairs. While this is not official, per-
sons here who know Huerta say he is
just the type to make such a declara-
ton and ii he has done so it's effect
would be to inflame the Mexicans to
auch an extent that anti. A ma rican Out
breaks can hardly be prevented.

WINNING WAR ON MOSQUITOES
Fight Continues All Along the Upper
Atlantic Coast.

New York, Aug. 9.-The mosquito
pest around New York and New Jer-
sey has been reduced more than half
by the anti-mosquito campaign this
year, according to DR.. Alvah H. Doty,
former health officer of the port of
New York, who has been interested in
the mosquito problem here for more
than fifteen years.
On Staten Island, in New York bay,
the breeding of mosquitoes has been
diminished about 80 per cent and the
malarial variety of the pest has been
practically exterminated, according to
DR.. Doty, by swamp drainage, aided
by an unusually dry spring. Similar
work on Long Island, New Jersey,
Massachusetts and Connecticut costs
has brought about reduction of
about 40 per cent in the breeding.

ly and the most of the night was
spent in a carousal by those who took
part lin the trouble.
According to the report received
here, the robbery occurred while the
postmaster was at b~reakfact, In the
broad light OF day, and Uncle Sam
was touched nip to the tune OF bout
$500. About $40 was taken from the
store. The impression prevails at
Wing, according to the same source,
that the job was pulled off by local
talent and an inspector of the govern.
ment has been investigating. 81
After the above was written, news
was received here to the effect that,
- stated above, the job was done by
local talent. TheEman who robbed
the p~ostofice, it is alleged, was fam
iliar with the store and its surround
ings and is said to have known the
combination OF the safe. He. is allag.
ed to have taken the Wilton-P ingree
train a few hours after the crime
was committed and went east. On
Friday last he returned to Wing and
made good the amount of the loss.
No arrests have yet been made.
