is virtual declaration of war upon the United States. The latter accom- panied the passports which were handed to the charge d'affaires just before his departure from Mexico City.
 This letter may yet play on im- portant part in the war, for it would serve as basis upon which congress could declare that a state of war eX- isted between the United States and Mexico The substance of the letter has been wired to the state depart ment
 O'Shaughnessy came ashore today from the battleship Minnesota where he spent the night as the guest of Admiral Fletcher. He was accompa- nied by Consul-Gencral Shanklin. The two men were closeted for a long time with Consul Canada.
 MT. OShaughnessy does not yet know what he will do, as he has not yet received orders from Washington.
 The two hydroplanes which have been brought here in the custody of Lieutenants Muslin and Ellison flew over the city today in a preliminary accommodating trip.
 HuGrta ArOuseS Germans.
 The German ambassador at Mexico City has refused pointblank to comply with the demand made upon him by federal soldiers to surrender 200 rifles with which the embassy mad been provided for it's own protection. The ambassador informed Huerta per sonally that he would fight before he would surrender the guns.
 It is reported that the German am bassador has received personal in structions from the Kaiser to bring or send all German subjects immedi- ately to Vera Cruz. The train carry ing the German refugees is expected here today.
 Zapata to Help Huerta.
 Zapata, the rebel chieftain, is re- ported to be now in Chapultepec. Ac- cording to Paul Hudson, who arrived here today from the capital, Zapata is now completely reconciled with Huerta and has brought with him 10000 men who are ready to fight the Americans.
 The refugees who arrived today from Mexico City report that the con- ditions are worse than when OShaughnessy left. The mobs are becoming more violent and are con- hitting the greatest eXcesses. The lives of all Americans remaining there are in imminent peril.
 Zapata was expected to arrive there this morning. There was report that Huerta planned to let Zapata en- ter the city, then to arrest him and perhaps execute him.

hopes of immediate peace, but this does not justify us in hesitating to accept your generous suggestion. We shall hope for the best results With in a time brief enough to relieve our anxiety lest ill-considered hostile demonstrations shall interrupt nego- tiatioas."
 Terms Not Discussed.
 Mir. Dogan or the ambassador of BraZile, who will probably be the head of the commission to arrange terms of peace with the Huerta government, if Huerta accepts the of fer of meditation, said: "The matter has not gone faI enough to warrant the making of any statement.
 "We naturally do not know any thing about terms or details They could not proceed an acceptance ol mediation by both parties.
 "We have, of course, communicated your offer of mediation to the Spanish ambassador at Washington who is acting for the Mexican govern ment.
 "The offer was, undoubtedly, sen by him to the Mexican government but there has, as yet been no reply I presume that the reply will come to us.
 eff an acceptance should come iron the Mexican government then l tak' it that we shall get together and have proposals and counter-proposal' which we will discuss with the stat' department here and with the repre- sentative of the Mexican governmen at Washington.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR WHEAT CROP.

IF Oklahoma fails to break the rec-
ord with wheat and oats crop this
year, prospects are worth considerably
less than nothing" says w. l. Drum
mond, editor of the Interstate Farmer,
to a representative of The World last
night. II have travelled more than
seven hundred miles in the last eight
days. covering the territory from near
the Arkansas line out through central
and northern Oklahoma, and as far as
Wichita, Kansas, paying especial at
tention to crop conditions all the time
In all that distance, failed to find a
poor field Of wheat or oats, or poor
spot in any field. The stand is uni
formly the best in the history of the
country, and the condition is all that
could be desired. The acreage is
enormous ; probably 30 per cent larger
than ever before, taking the state as a
whole If nothing happens to it in
the next four. weeks, Oklahoma viii
have prod duced at least forty million
dollars of new wealth from this source
alone. The threatened danger from
chinch bugs in few localities has been
checked by the recent rains and cool
weather, while the green bug scare
was nothing more than scare. Cool,
wet weather delayed the planting OF
corn, cotton and the grain sorghums
aud made re-planting necessary to a
certain extent, bat there is plenty of
time vet for maturing these crops"

ing of the board of governors of tn,

| is still chairman Of the board and re
ports everything pertaining to thu
congress in fine condition. The mex
