PRESIDENT ASKS
LANSING'S HELP
TO AID MEXICO
Seeking Definite Plan to
End Middle in War
Ridden Republic.
fFrom The Tribune Bureau.l

Washington, July PA definite plan
TO solve the Mexican problem is eX-
pected TO be laid before the Cabinet by
President Wilson on his return from
Cornish. With the answer to Germany
off his mind and the improbability Of
further diplomatic correspondence with
that country for some time to come, the
President, il is thought here, is giving
more attention to Mexico than he has
been able to do recently.
Before going TO Cornish the Presi-
dent held long conference with Sec
rotary Lansing on the Mexican situa-
ton. As a result the Secretary Of State
will also try his hand at a solution.
The plan decided on may be a combina-
ton of their ideas.
Nothing of the details are known in
Washington, but it is said by those who
know that, short Of actual Intervention,
for which they see not the slightest
chance, only one solution is possible
That would be to get the stronger men
Of Mexico, who have not been con-
cerned in the revolutions, together and
form government, which would re-
ceive recognition.
Shipments Of arms and ammunition
to revolutionists against this govern
ment would be cut Off By an embargo,
while credit would be inspired by its
recognition. II is believed that this is
the only plan by which peace can be re-

Bridgeport, Conn, July 25.-Now
that the tension OF the last week has
passed, Bridgeport has chance TO
talk over some of the incidents that
il did not have time TO think about
last week. One of them is the story
Of the guard at the ammunition works
who took a bath in illuminate OF

II there is anything that Is inclined

is illuminate OF mercury, and, accord
iug,y, il is handled very respectfully

taken it into his head to sleep in one

was illuminate from head to foot, and

he was dangerous to handle roughly.
Diplomacy and persuasion were used
10 get him out Of the shack More
was used to get him out Of the clothes
he wore. -.
Then he was discharged, and, II
stories of other guards are 10 be be-
lieved, a boot hurried his departure
from the works.
In the Stratfeld they are laughing
over the antics Of some Of the army
Of private detectives who have been
in the city since the trouble started.
Al the hotel were the heads of two
agencies, each watching the other. One
had a trick Of taking notes in the
books of matches given away by cigar
dealers. The other saw this, and, get
ting a supply Of matches, proceeded to
borrow from the first one, retaining
the notebook This he did several
times, but it was rather too slow for
him, and he decided on other means,

Fall Planting Foils Wheat Pest

Washington, y. j., July % Showers
during the last week delayed the farm
ers of Warren County in gathering
one of the largest and finest wheat
and rye crops in years.
Wheat last year was a failure, due
10 the ravages of the Hessian fly. This
years big yield resulted through farm
ers planting wheat late in the fall. The
results obtained have suggested TO
some of the farmers the idea Of trying
the experiment Of planting spring
wheat.
