The formal resignation Of Dr.. Dunba clears the way
for the appointment of another ambassador the
United States There has been much discussion in that

strength, in the morning, tho general
list drifted 10 weaknes In the after
noon. and recessions, ranging from r.
fraction OF a point to Z points. were the
order OF the day. There seemed to be no
special reason for tho decline in the
market, which had the appearance of
being started by the bad break In the
shares OF the United States Industrial
Alcohol Company, except that the air
was charged with rumors that bad news
was to develop overnight IN the Mexican
situation. The report received ~credence
from the fact that all of the recent ad-
verse Mexican developments have made
their first appearance In the morning
papers. This. coupled with a belief that
Wednesday afternoons selling came from
persons who nae advance news OF the
attack on the Tenth cavalry. caused a
disposition anlong traders to let go OF
stocks whenever selling appeared. In
many circles Il was felt that an open
break between the United States and
