| press everything they had in mind in
| view OF the circumstances.
The first visitor with the President was
Senator Pomerene of the Senate com
mfttee on banking and currency The
| Ohio senator went over the currency fight
In the Senate with the President and pre-
dicted that six of the seven democrats
on the committee would get together and
report a bill to the Senate by Saturday

Ihis and other news reaching the White
House put officials there in a jubilant
mood over the prospects for the early
passage of a currency bill along the lines
desired by the administration.
The President was pleased. and Secre-
tary Tumuty, who keeps close track of
legislative matters. a.so talked most
cheerfully as to the prospects for cur
rency bill becoming a law In compara
lively short time That the situation has
worked out much as the administration
has all along for eshadowed was admitted
during the day.
Pos master General Bur!eson discussed

of Germany, who are visiting the United
States to study prison conditions.
The President today changed the hour
cores: Cndents On Thursday afternoons to

that the President might get out earlier

ing so short that 1t is Impossible to fin
ish a game of golf or to take long
automobile ride before dark, unless an
early start is made.

a final effort to get Huerta TO give up
his office. 1t was not thought, however
that he had any expectation of being
successful, In view of Gen. Huerta past
attitude. II was cons dered not iHlproo-
able that Clarke 'Shaughnessy and other
attaches OF tho embassy at Mexico City
might be withdrawn, but 1t was explained
here that such action should not be
taken an act of beiligerency.
The AVerican government sull ls de-
sirous that the revolution be settled by
the contenders themselves, but the in
ternational complications that have arisen
in connection with disturbances in all
parts of the republic and the threatened
tangle over acts OF new CONGRESS wmch
this government considers Illegal are
said to have prompted the Washington
administration to seek definite assurances
from the constitutionalists.
Desire Fair and Free Election.
Back of the efforts for an understand
ing with Carranza is said to be hope on
the part OF Washington officials that the
constitutionalists will establish govern
ment on terms Of the closest friendship
with the United States. just what has
been given Mr.. Hale by President Wilson
or Secretary Bryan to lay before the con-
stitutionalistS is not disclosed here, Dut
the impression prevails that the United
states WlSHtu not Only dSSdi
of their purposes but some promise that
they would conduct at an early date fair
and free election.
There is a hope on the part of many
officials that the mere opening OF ne
gotiations with the constituttonaliSts
and extension of moral support TO their
cause may influence not only Huertd
retirement but the choice OF provls-
ional president who would be accept
able to the constitutionalists.
A feature of the negotiations with Gen.
Carranza, however. is known to be his
rather delicate position in having to con-
slider the sentiments of the Mexican peo
pie. That Mexicans are suspicious of
the United States is Well known and
Gen Carranza is in the position that if
he seems TO be courtng the support Of
this government he is apt TO lose the sup
port of Mexicans.

American Consul Agent Payne's daugh-
ter two other women and four children
