recognized Gen Huerta in order that the

chance to make good In his promises to
bring about peace In tho republic.
However" Mr.. Newberry added. Elm q

Mr.. Gilbert also expressed regret that
Huerta had not been recognised. and
added that the lifting Of the embargo on
arms was not a wise move, since II had
furnished villa with arms (which he will
now turn against the United States"
Il am not crticising the Administra-
tion." Mr Gilbert said. but tho United
states seems to be In for u long and
costly war"
Mr., Gilbert said that he could see no
possibility Of trouble between the United
States and Japan. The problems OF Man
churia Formosa and Corea were absorb
ing the attention of the Japanese at this
time, he said. and tho big national debt
resulting from tho Russo Japanese War
was another deterrent factor. The loss
OF trade which would result to the island
empire from conflict with tho United
states Is another argument for peace. Mr.,
Gilbert said
The port Of Yokohama trades almost
entirely with this country" he said "If
this commerce should be interrupted thou
sands of people In Japan would be In
danger OF starvation"
Although disagreeing with President
Wilson on the earlier policies of the Ad-

nation at this time for fear Of unduly
offending the Constitutionalists. In the
proclamation he would have been
obliged to give his reasons for reversing
his former action and again laying the
embargo. The President does not in
tend in the near future to issue any
proclamation. although orders have
gone out through the Treasury Depart
ment to all custom houses on the border
to hold up shipments Of arms for
Mexico.
Another development indicated i'm
pressively the desire Of the Wilson Ad-
ministration to establish such relations
with Carranza and villa as will per-
init Of active cooperation against
Huerta. Secretary of the Navy Daniels
issued this formal statement:
Defends >Consti tn ionalists.
II have always felt that the Constl-
tutionalists. the bulk Of them. were AMI
mated by the same spirit thatanimated
the followers OF, Nadero. They have the
germ of resolve to secure constitutional
Government. In spite OF any excuses
and mistakes, most Of them are in
spired by patriotic motives. American
liberty is their goal and 1t is bound to
be reached In some way or other In
Mexico and elsewhere.
The cause Of constitutional govern
ment Is going to prevail II given .
fair chance. Whether II prevails
through this man or that man. 1t Is
bound to prevail. You cannot put out
the flame once kindled. however feeble
the light. The American people must
sympathize with every man struggling
for a voice In the government OF his
country. The day Of abssolution and one
man ruie belonged TO u past century.
There is no government worthy the
name for our generation except gov
eminent by the consent OF the governed
Through travail. such government viii
come to the Mexicans."
That the Administration Is even IN
clined to play Villa against Carranza
in the event Of an emergency was IN
dicated tonight. Senator Shively. chair
man of the Foreign Relations Commit
tee. called at the White House and con-
ferrsd with the President In regard 10
a report which had been received from
Consul Carothers at FL Paso on his
interview with Gen. Villa last night.
IL was learned that the Administra-
ton found comfort in Villas statement
chiefly because II seemed 10 muica'e
that should Carransa unite forces with
Huerta, Villa would not lend his abil-
ty to any anti-American operations.
They are accordingly counting on the
prestige Of Villas name to counteract
in northern Mexico the effect produced
by Carranzas petulance and recent anti
american expression.
D0nt Trust Ntlla.
Persons here who know Villa in
timately, however. contend that the
Wilson Administration Is leaning ON q
broken reed IL they expect Villa to fol-
low any course that will run counter 10
the sentiment In northern Mexico They
insist that not only Carranxa. but Villa
and all Of the other rebel leaders In
Mexico will eventually be found oppos-
ing the military operations Of the United
States Government.
