Next to the Presidents spccch the
most significant utterance was that Of

WATCHFUL WAITING
IN MEXICO NEAR END
Wilson Advised to Take FOrci-
bic Action NOw-Talk of
Intervention Heard.
CABINET ACTION TODAY
Duval West Paints Dismal Pie
ture-EurOpean Menace Af-
ter War Feared.

WAsHfSGroS. May ei.-The neces-
sity for a radical change in this Cow
ernments Mexican policy is now being
seriously discussed ny Administration
officials. President Wilson has been in
formed by men who are competent to
speak on the subject that as long as
"watchful waiting on the part OF the
United states continues revolutions will
persist in Mexico. Some advisers OF the
President are convinced that the time
has arrived when this Government must
deal firmly and aegre ssively with the
Mexican situation.
There Is good reason to believe that
just as soon as the Administration ad-
justs present diplomatic negotiations
with Europe growing out OF the war a
new and more vigorous policy will be
adopted by the Government in its rela-
tions with Mexico. Talk of intervention
is again being heard.
Tonight President Wilson had a long
conference with Duval West of Texas,
who went to Mexico to make n survey Of
conditions there for the Administration.
Mr.. West is said to have painted a dis
NAL picture OF affairs In the southern
republic and to have expressed the be-
lief that until the United States acts
more forcibly Mexico will continue to be
torn by revolutions fomentcd by an in
significant minority.

No Faith In Leaders.

II is understood that Mr.. West has
informed the Administration he has lit
tie faith In the Mexican leaders now
prominent In tho public eye. His con
clusions. IL followed. 1t is believed would
lead to intervention. Whether or not
Mr.. West has recommended interven-
ton is not definitely known. 1t is
understood that Mexico and Mexican
affairs will have consideration at to-
morrow's Cabinet meeting
Should the President decide to take
affirmative action to restore order in
Mexico two courses are open to him lie
may Intervene or he may recognize a
faction In the republic. Either step
would be a marked departure from the
present policy. which has been continued
in the face of hostile criticism in the
United States and abroad.
Conditions in Mexico to-day are far
worce than they have been At any time
since the fail of Porfirio Diaz From
all over the country come reports telling
of great suffering by reason OF the short
age OF food and the ravages of warfare
Mexico city is desolate. business
throughout the republic is al a stand
still and it is urged by many that the
Washington Administration could per
form no more heroic service for hui
manity than to take hold in Mexico and

(By Herbert Temple)

London, Feb. 4.-Within the past
three days the British war office has
sent $4,000 fresh British troops across
the channel to meet a new offensive
movement which the Germans are
expected to make all along the line in
West Flanders and northern France.
General Joffre, ommander-in-chief
of the allied armies, and Field Mar
shall French, commander of the Brit
ish expeditionary forces, have learned
through spies that the Germans have
been massing men and artillery along
the northern front for ten days. Prep
arations made by the Germans indi-
cate that they are getting ready to
launch the most terrific assault vet
made upon the Anglo-French lines.
The severest attacks are expected
on the Belgian frontier, where a con-
siderable portion of the British
troops are massed. The Kaiser evil
IDENTIFY desires victory over the Brit
ish, rather than the French, for po-
litical reasons.

Against Shipping Bill.

Washington, Feb. 4.-The forma-
tion of federal shipping board and
the Marine Development Company
with capitalization of $3O,OOO,OOO, and
the advance of fund to buyers or
builders of steamers, and a board
to supervise the shipping, are includ-
ed in report of the committee on
merchant marine submitted today at
a meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States in annual
convention here. The administration
ship purchase bill is declared unwise
and wrong in principle.
Filibuster Shifted.
Washington, Feb. A filibuster
by the administration forces to pre-
vent roll call, which would defeat
the ship purchase bill, has been de-
cided upon at a conference of admin
istration Democrats in the Senate to-
day. Senator Kern of Indiana, ma
jority leader, announced that there
would be no roll call today on the
motion of the opposition to send the
bill back to the committee. Other
Democrats stated that they would talk
against time until enough senators ar
rived to pass the bill. Meanwhile the
message was sent to Newlands of
Nevada, who is in California, and
Smith of South Carolina, the latter at
the bedside of his sick wife, to re-
turn Immediately. The filibuster
planned will continue until they re-
turn, when the vote of the Senate will
be tied, 48 to 4S, and the deciding
vote will be cast by the vice presi.
dent.

Food as COntraband.

Washington, Feb. 1.-Information
through British officials here today
is that English cruisers got instruc-
tions a day or two after the promul-
cation of the German decree on food
stuffs in Germany "to make inquiry
Of all vessels bound to European ports
as to the character and destination of
cargoes."
1t is intimated by these officials
that similar instructions went to
Russian and French naval vessels.
The first case that developed was
that of the Wilhelmina. 1t is now
certain that had she sailed after pub
lication in the United States of even
the substance of the German decree,
she would have been taken into the
nearest British port, where her car
go would have been discharged and
confiscated by the british govern
ment.
State department officials today re-
peat they have not yet received the
text of the German decree, which is
equivalent to a British order in coun-
Gil. They are kneely alive, however,
to the magnitude of the issue that has
been made by Great Britain. The
cablegram received yesterday from
Ambassador Page was sufficiently ex-
plicit on which to go to work, and
the solicitor of the state department,
Cone Johnson, is already preparing a
communication to Great Britain.
1t is expected that this communi-
cation of the state department will
be sent to Ambassador Page in the
shape of formal protest the mo-
ment that the state department is
informed officially that the Wilhel-
nina has been taken into port and
her cargo appropriated, even though
paid for by Great Britain.
One of the points in the position of
the state department will, it is said,
be that Great Britain is not justi-
fled in rejecting the good faith of
the German government in her ex-
planaton of her own decree.
