the absence from the train of the

ital was not improbable.
"Mr, Lind will be entirely welcome
in Mexico should he wish to return"

many Americans and many more have
planned to go tomorrow.
The following statement was issued
at the foreign office tonight:
ain order to calm the natural anXi-
ETY. of the public, occasioned by tho
negotiations which have been car
ried on with Mr.. Lind, the conf
Dental agent of President Wilson,
Senior GambOa declares that up to
the present there is no reason for
alarm.
"Since the beginning, Mexico has
tried to maintain conciliatory atti-
ude. although at the same time, a
dignified one, and if the president Of
the United States considers it oppOr-
tune to submit to congress the status
of the negotiations, then Mexico is
relieved from the tacit agreement and
fr IN the customs observed in neSo-
tiations of this class, not to give pre-
mature publicity. and will hasten
then, and only then, to make public
in their entirety all the documents
which have been received or which
may be reached at that date.
"The situation is far from being
desperate. 1t can oily be called ser-
Gus. and for this reason it is desira
Bile that the public should be discreet
and reserved, since this is the best
manner in which they can aid the
government.
