Washington, September 5.-Develop-
ments in the Mexican situation prOba-
bly, will await the arrival in Washing
ton of Manuel De amacona Inclan,
personal envoy of the Huerta govern
ment, to continue with the Washington
administration the negotiations begun
by John Lind, personal Representative
of President Wilson In Mexico.
Administration officials had NOT decided
tonight scherher they would receive Senor
DE Zamacona unless he brought positive
assurances of Huerta's elimination from
the presidential election in Mexico, and
was ready to act upon the other points in
the American proposals for the establish
ment of peace.
Some of the Washington officials feel
that the United States has made its posi-
ton sufficiently clear through the parleys
conducted by Mr.. Lind and the address
of President Wilson to Congress There
is however disposition to receive Senior
De Zamacona in view of the courtesy
shown Mr. Lind.

put up a package that is a credit to

Within a surprisingly short number

farsighted enough to know that ber-

little beyond this and see what produc-
