emissary, VINO. many think, may
bring about q better understanding be-
tween the United States and Mexico,
arrived at the Union passenger sta
ton at rs this afternoon. The train
made d short stop, during which time
Zamacona was met by representative

quenty left for Washington.
The mission of the Mexican ennis
sary is still shoruded in mystery.
Yet from the standpoint of those who
nave been following the interminable
intcrchangcs between the two c0un-
tries, and on the say-So. too. Of men
in the confidence of the Admnstra-
ton. the situation has about reached
the point where Zamacona's mission
may end the difficulties. or break off
all negotiations.
As no further assurances have come
from Mexico City that President
Hucrta will not be in the lists of the
October elections, pessiSm grows in
Washington. And the time is fast
approaching when assurances alone
will not help the situation apprecia-
bly,. Mexico to win the recognition

the country must be in a state of
peace. The actual condition existing,
however. is that two-thirds Of the
country is still in state of revolt,
and. as far as Washington knows,
there has been an effort made toward
an armistice.
