WASHINGTON, Nov. s.-The adj
minlstration is pinning its hope now in
the Mexican situation to the influence
that may be cxerted by European gov
ernrnents upon Huerta. This was in
dicated clearly by a conference which
John Lind. the presidents special rep

Z All advices received here today in

American demands for his elimination.

Huerta might be compelled to change
his mind If he becomes convinced that
all the other European governments
were standing behind the insistence of
the United States.

operation between this government
and all the European powers IS by
