OF WILSON
MAY BRING ACTION
Officials Expecting Decision in
Regard to Mexico When He
Reaches Capital.

While advices from Pass Christian
have declared the conferences between
President Wilson and Envoy John Lind
will not cause any change in this Gov
ernment's policy toward the Huerta
government it is believed in unofficial
circles today definite developments in
the Mexican situation will follow Presi-
dent Wilson's return to Washington
next week.
There is remaining much mystery
about the Wilson-Lind conference. The
statement of the President that it was
a get-together meeting is held here to
contain a hidden meaning. 1t is pointed
here the President has obtained
from Lind information as to the exact
diplomatic situation in Mexico City. He
has possession of information showing
the hidden sources through which HUI
erta has been able to get the little
money with which he has conducted his
government, and. despite diplomatic de-
mails, it is believed certain here that
Mr.. LindS carries with him a message
which will be backed up to the home
governments OF certain diplomats,
through the State Department, suggest
ing in firm, but most friendly terms
that this Government does not relish
their active. interest in the affairs Of
Huerta.
Action Upon Return.
Bearing out their statements that
action may be expected soon after the
Presidents return, officials point to the
plans of the Navy Department to send
four more batueships to Mexican
waters, bringing the total OF big battle
ships up to eleven, and thus consti-
tuting the greatest American naval
force ever. concentrated in what might
be called hostile waters.
Added to these plans Of the Navy De-
partment, about which there is the ut
most secrecy, is the warning issued
by the state Department, advising
Americans against returning to Mexico.
This warning has been muCh discussed
in official circles since il WIS publish
ed in the $50 edition Of The Times Sat
urday. II is regarded as Of great sig
and IT may presage some
forward action by President Wilson
Adds to Tenseness.
The mystery cloaking the conference
b. tween President Wilson and Mr.. Lind
OF board the Chester, without Tie latter
having set foot on American soil. is
another thing which heightens the
terseness which is beginning 20 be felt
il inside circles in Washington.
The sailing OF two regiments Of ma
rihes from Philadelphia and Pensacola,
Fla. for CulebTa, furnishing a force OF
mere than 100 men has given rise to
TUmoTs that a much larger force Of ma !
riBcs will be diverted to Mexican /
Eaters. Confirmation of this cannot be |
obtained. because the Navy Department !
Is maintaining silence since the new de |
veioDmeuts appeared in which il has |
taken such an active part.
