GARDEN TO SEE WILSON.
Envoy VIII Go to Washington Be
fore sailing for England.

WAsHISGToN, Feb. 10.-Sir Lionel Car
dan, British Minister TO Mexico. Will soon
come to Washington on his way to Eng
land where he is TO report TO the British
Foreign Office on the situation in Mexico.
This was indicated here to-day on good
authority.
The British Ambassador. Sir Cecil Ar
thur Spring Rice. has already arranged
with President Wilson and Secretary
BRYAN for Sir Lionel to come to Washing
ton en- route to England While 1t Is said
that the British Minister'S programme Is
depcndent to a certain extent upon steam
shin schedules, there is little doubt here
that he will appear In Washington In a
few weeks There is good reason to be-
Meve that during his visit he will discuss
with the President possible courses OF
action IN Mexico following the elimination
OF President Huerta, which Is confidently
expected by the President.
In the arrangements for Sir Lionel 20
visit Washington Is seen an indication or
coming closer relations between Washing
ton ard London with regard to the Presi-
dents policy In Mexico. This IL regarded
as the first result OF President Wilson q
announcement that he will ask Congress
70 repeal the clause OF the Panama Canal
act exempung American ships from the
payment OF canal tolls.
That Il desire on the part OF tho Tresi'
dent TO prepare the way for disentanglinp
the United States is now involved was al
least partly responsible for his declara'
ton in favor OF yielding to tho British
contention regarding Panama Canal tolls
is understood here. The Presidents an
nouncement of his attitude has alread,
brought a warm response from the British
press and Is believed to have secured thu
good will OF the British Government, car
rying with II British support for the Amer
lean policy In Mexico and also British
sympathy for the United States in Its re
lations with other Governments. notabl!
with Japan,
Reports OF Sir Lionel's alleged interes
IN land company owning property OF
The Isthmus OF Tehuantepec created muci
interest here. Secretary Bryan denied to
day that these reports had been men
toned in his conference with the British
Ambassador"
Tho statement OF Lord Cowdray to TIL
effect that Sir Lionel acquired such al
interest IN a company in which he. Cow
dray. was also interested, was regarded
here an Significant. II Is learned tina
there In a rule in the British diplomatic
and consular services which prohibit
officers OF these services from acquirin,
any business interests in the countrie
