HE TELLS WHOLESALERS AND MANUFACTURERS HIS VIEWS
 OF CLAYTON MEASURE.
WANTS TO END UNCERTAINTY
In Business and Put an End to Sus- picion and Recriminaton by Put ting His Business Views Into Stat. utes of Justice.

Washington, D. C., July 29.-iDe- lending the administration trust pro gram, President Wilson tod a large delegation of business men repre- senting large wholesale organizations that he was seeking to end an era of Suspicion and recrimiaation by put. ting into law what the moral judg- ment of the community has said ought to be justice' He assured them the government was not run ming "amucl1.''
 The wholesalers laid before the president prepared argument against several features of the Clay ton antitrust bill and the trade com mission bill, but said they approved of the general purposes of the pro- posed legislation. MT. Wilson prom ised to lay his callers suggestions be, fore the proper senate committee.
 The president also talked of bust ness conditions and the anti-truss bills with Hugh Chalmers, a Detroit
 manufacturer, who agreed with the
 presidents views and said prosperity
 would come as soon as the present uncertainty was relieved. In speaking to the wholesalers the president said:
 We have had ten or fifteen years of ceaseless agitation about business. During that time we have read stories in the newspapers and in the magazines of the cxtravagantiy wrong things that were going on and an atmosphere of almost universal suspicion has been created so that if a man became a business man in a big way he had the feeling that his fellow men probably looked upon him as not coming by his money in the
 right way.
 q think I am right in saying that
 the present administration has tried
 to bring all those questions to clear ing house and settle up the balance of 1 judgment. l am not maintaining they are settled in the wisest way they could be settled. but certainly the men engaged have tried to settle
 them in the interest of the country, | and think il the main they have | succeeded.
 q want to leave the thought with | you that we are not running 'amuck' ,; we are trying to close this era of suspician and of recrimination by putting in the law what the mora judgment of the community has said | ought to be there. And I honestly | believe that when it is done-aad | hope it will not be more than six | weeks now when it is done-we can all take off our coats and get back to | work and look each other in the face
 and say this is a nation of honest
 men and we are going to do business
 as such."

AN UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER MEANS THAT HE DOES NOT
 RECOGNIZE GOVERNMENT.
HOPES PEACE WILL FOLLOW
Makes it Plain That His Attitude Does ot Mean That He is a Stun bling Block in the Way of Bringing About Peace.

Washington, D. C., July 29--Direct word from Gen. Venustiano Carranza announcing that eff Carbajal offers to surrender unconditionally, I be- lieye the present situation in Mexico soon will be satisfactorily solved,' came tonight to the constitutionalist iunta in Washington.
 CarranZa's message, dated at Tam pico, directed Rafael Zubaran, head of the agency, to deny any reports that he was eldeavoring to pace diff faculties in the way of establishing peace.
 Members of the constitutionalist agency said they interpreted the ref erence to unconditional surrender, as a reiteration of Carranza's insist ence that he would not recognize the Carbajal government as legally es- tablished. They predicted that the question of amnesty and guarantees for the federals would not be a stumbling block during the forthcom- in gparleys over the transfer of the government, because, they said. peo- pie in the territory once controlled by Huerta now placed confidence in Carranza's assurances that he would attempt no wholesale reprisals when Mexico City is taken. Confirmation of reports thN a friendly understanding had Aean reached between the constitutional ists and Zapata's forces was received tonight by the junta. It was said the southern revolutionist would quit his activities against several cities in the neighborhood of the capital and CO., operate with Carranza.

Berlin Holds Council.

Berlin, July 29.--The public to- night anxiously awaits the result If the cabinet counsel held today on the AustrosServian situation, but nothing transpired to relieve the suspense. Information also was anXiously awaited concerning telegrams ex- chaged between Emperor William and Emperor Nicholas, but here too hopes were blasted. The public, nevertheless, still sees a favorable augury in the interchange of tele- grams. Meanwhile, news continues to pour into Berlin regarding Rus sia's military measures.
 The French embassy professes to have assurances from the German government that Germany would not regard Russian mobilization on the Austrian frontier as an absolute cause of war-assurances perhps re- ceiyed since Emperor Williams re- turn to Germany.
 But the situation undoubtedly IS critical and the pessimism of the bankers and public is justified. While he Reichscank today decided 10 leave it's rate unchanged, his deci- sion is believed to have been intend cd 10 avert further alarm and a rate advance is expected before the week ends.
 Among the applicants for redemp' tions evidently were many small de nositors in savings banks who had withdrawn their balances from these institutions and then hurried to the Reichsbank to exchange notes TOT gold. ..
 The foreign exchange market here reflects the anxiety prevailing among inc Russian and Austrian peoples.
 The price of St. Petersburg and VI enna bills dropped today to the low est level of two decades. New forF exchange also registered a sensa tionallv low level, while on the con 4rarv that of London and Pafi' reached the highest point in gen eration.
 IL Is evident that Engllsh ant French bankers are drawing all then balances from Russia, Austria ah' Germany and that the capitalists II these countries are transferring thel money to London as security agains inc uncertainties of war.
