i. s. ACTION ON
MEXICO DELAYED
Wilson Will Make No An
.nouncement of Policy Pend
ing Count of Votes.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3o.--Secretary
Bryan, leaving today to speak in the
New Jersey political campaign, said
there was no change In the Mexican
situation Mr.. Bryan will speak in
Perth Amboy and New Brunswick
tonight. In Elizabeth tomorrow after
noon and in Jersey City tomorrow
night. He will return to Washington
Saturday morning, and that day will
address Maryland voters in Rockville,
Hagerstown and Frederick
That the next step in the Mexican
policy of the administration has not
been finally worked out and may not
be announced for another week, was
indicated today at the White House.
1t has been necessary" said Chair
man Bacon, of the Senate foreign re-
lations committee, that the Euro
pean nations should recognize the
right of the United States to deal with
the situation. Now that we have that
recognition It will take {. little time
for the President to work out the
problem"
The possibility that within the next
few days definite announcement will
be made by the Huerta government
of the result of the election last Sun
cay is having the effect of postpon-
ing action by the United States.
While the election has been repudi-
ated here the actual formalities of
proclaiming the result may have
some bearing on the situation, for
this government already has refused
to countenance the result, foreign
governments have not taken any po-
sition, and 1t is felt in many quar-
ters that the United States Should
await formal action by the authori-
ties in Mexico City before putting on
4 ecord its rejection.
President Wilson is carefully con-
sidering suggestions from his adj
visers, and it was said today that the
Plan might not be ready until next
weeks cabinet meeting.
