Washington Officials Believe He Will Be Received As A Mes
 Senger Of Peace

Washington, Aug. 7.-Administrat ti on officials do not believe the Huerta gov ernment in Mexico really intends to snub John Lind, President Wilson's personal representative, as would seem to appear in last nights official state ment by the Mexican minister of for eign affairs-
 At the White House, at the state de- partment and in official circles today the impression put out was that when the Huerta government was fully ap- prised Of President Wilson's views as transmitted by MT. Lind, a different construction would be placed on Lind's errand and Mexico would realize it ''as n mission of peace"
 President Wilson and Secretary Bry- an are disposed to await the arrival Of Ar- Lind in Mexico City before taking my further steps in the situation. This was made clear today at the White House. It was pointed out again to- day theSt MT. Lind goes merely as ad- wiser to the American embassy in Mexico City and carries credentials to neither the federal nor north consti- tutfonalist government. He will deal with the Huerta government only through the Charge d'affaires of the American embassy, SO that there will be no necessity for his being received by President Huerta-
 While the broad intination from the Mexican capital that MT. Lind would be persona non. grafa attracted wide attention todaysS officials were confident that no contingency would arise that would afford an opportunity for any overt remonstrance against Mr. Lind's presence The envoy is expected to transmit the opinions of the American gorsFnmenf in such fashion as to re- fleet only the friendliness of the Unit ed States government toward the Mex lean naDple and no political interest i'm t1a9pfacti9naI warfare. He will make clear that what the American govern4 ment desires to see is a constitQ tionalI government legally set up and it has no concern with the personnel of the candidates.
 It was recognized here, however, that 1t was within the range of possibility for the Huerta government openly to show it's disapproyal of Mir. Lind's mission and while administration off, cfaIs were careful to point out that no drastic measures to enforce the opin- ion of the Washington government was planned, it was suggested that the United States might in such an event feel justified in lifting the embargo on arms for the beIIigeFents.
 Mir. Lind sailed from Galveston early today on the battieship New Hamp- shire The run to Vera Cruz is about 625 miles and the ship should put in there probably tomorrow night Twelve hours later MT Lind should be in Mex lcO GUY some a0m1n1SIraC1On Ofnc1alS and dfpIomatists take the view, that the developments after MT. Lind ar .rfves in Mexico will go far in shaping the future attitude of the United States.
 Just what the Mexican government means by the phrase in the official statement saying This presence in this i country will not be desirable, is the i subject of much comment. There is | a provision in the Mexican constitu- ton for the expulsion of undesirable | foreigners
