ADMINISTRATION SLOW
IN MEETING MEXICANS
Failure TO Choose Commission
ers Called Ridiculous.
From The Tribune bureau

Washington, Aug. l6.-That the
Mexican situation is rapidly becoming
ridiculous because of the delay in ap-
pointing the American commissioners
is admitted even by friends of the Adj
ministration. No indication is given
as to when the actual work of settling
the Mexican troubles mag be expected
to begin.
Only one of the three commissioners
has been named Secretary Lane. Jus
tice Rrandeis refused 10 serve, alleg-
ing pressure of other work, but really,
it is understood. because of Chief JUS
tice Whites fear that the commission
might become involved i'll politics.
Other friends of the President who
have been asked to serve also have
declined. Yet the two governments
have been in practical agreement on
the commission plan for at least FIVE
weeks, and the Mexican commission
ers were selected two weeks ago.
There was an official suggestion to-
day that the President might have to
draw again on his Cabinet.

were dwarfed to the proportions OF
toys.
Good hard work kept the minds OF
the men off the neglect until sailing
time. As midshipmen from Annapolis
are required, on their summer cruises,
TO start at the bottom, so the rockies
were put on the jobs ordinarily as
signed to enlisted men. They stood
watches in the engine room. scrubbed
decks. waited on table and chased
about on errands for officers.
To such a democratic basis were
the rockies reduced that there were
only two ways of telling them from
the half crews OF real sailors. Their
uniforms were spotless, save for the
names stencilled across their chests
Also, their faces we're startlingly
pale in contrast with those Of the
veterans.
Maine Lays Behind.
Only one duty deyolves on the
rockies which is not part of the lot
of midshipmen. They will have to
take turns acting as mess cooks and
strikers. That doesn't mean they viii
have to do any cooking, for the mess
cook is simply the waiter in charge OF
a table seating twenty men. The
striker is Eis assistant.
The New Jersey and the Kentucky
got under way shortly after 10 o'clock.
Their rookie crews were drawn up at
quarters where they would be out of
the way while the practical sailormen
cast off the hawsers and worked the
vessels into the East River.
1t was not until 1880 that the
Maine followed. But her extra time
made for nothing. No belated WISH
tors came rushing 20 see her off and
no merrier noises sped her on her
way than the footing of whistles and
the hammering Of riveters in the Navy
Yard.
The contingent from Columbia Uni
vcrsity did not arrive in time to start
aboard the Maine. They will follow
on the Wasp and may not be trans
shipped until the training squadron
is off Block Island.

The 18th did not fare so well. Twen-

Brigadier General Lester rode for a
mile and a half after his horse went
lame and then finished the hike in an
automobile.
The regiment left Mission at $3.50
o'clock. Colonel John Il. Foote had
given orders that the men were to
drink sparingly from their canteens,
and they had filed themselves up on

The lst Battalion acted as advance

wind at its back on the first leg of
