WILSON'S RESIGNATION
ACCEPTED TO-DAY
Ambassador to Mexico who was Ask
ed by President Wilson to
Give Up His Post.

WASHINGTON Oct 1.-THE. res
ignation" of Henry Lane Wilson, am
bassador to Mexico during the Taft
regime, today was formally accept
ed" Ambassador Wilson following
precedent, sent in his resignation to
President Wilson Immediately after
the inauguration last March One
reason 1t was not accepted then was
that the United tates, considering
the nearly breaking relations between
this government and that of the usur-
per, Huerta, did not wish to remain
unrepresented in the revolution torn
republic. To have accepted Wilson s
resignation at that time would have
meant that the United States would
either have to be represented in Mex
leo by an official many ranks below
that of other countries, or recognize
the Huerta usurpation by appoint
ment of another ambassador.
The passing of Ambassador Henry
Lane Wilson recalls the many open
charges made against him by some
Americans and several members OF
the diplomatic corps in Mexico City
that he had aided Huerta In the lat
ter's overthrow of President Madero,
who afterwards was murdered with
Vice. President Suarez. One OF the
reasons assigned for not Immediate
ly removing Ambassador Wilson was
that to relieve him Of his title of am
bassador would give him the privilege
