SAYS WILSON IS AN ARROGANT
 USURPER
FORMER SUPPORTER OF THE PRESIDENT FOR SAKES THE PARTY AND GIVES HIS REASONS.

NEW YORK, Sept 19. - Hannis
 Taylor, prominent Democrat, writer
 on international law, former minister
 to Spain, liberal contributor to Mir.
 Wilson's campaign fund in 1912, and
 chairman of a great meeting which
 ratified Mir. Wilson's nomination in
 that year, has announced his inten-
 tion of voting for MT. Hughes Mr.
 Taylor explaining his reasons for re-
 fusing to support Wilson described
 Mir. Wilson as "an abnormally ambi tious and dangerous revolutionist, with monarchial tendencies, striving
 to build up in this country, in his own selfish interest, a political dictator ship unfettered by all promises and covenants made by him in party plat forms" He says, "The old Demo- cratic party has been abolished or superseded by a political dictatorship created by an arrogant usurper who has demonstrated his inability to play the pretentious role he prepared"
 Wilson Jollies Mexicans.
 With mellifiuous rhetoric, President Wilson is still striving to conciliate the representatives of General Car ranza into such measure of amiability as will permit of some sort of agree ment to be reached at the New Lon don conference which will tide over the Mexican muddle until after the election. Called to New London by the serious illness of his sister, Presi- | dent Wilson called on the Mexicans and told them of his entire confidence l in and sympathy with Carranza, of his strong advocacy of those great fundamental principles of the new freedom for which Carranza is striv- ing, of his detestion of the prosperous | and educated classes in Mexico, etc. l He told them that he was convinced | that all right-thinking men the world | over were in sympathy with Carranza, his lofty ideals, and noble aspirations. | The social regeneration of Mexico, he declared, must come from within and he intimated that in his opinion Carranza was foreordained to work out Mcxico's social and economic sal vation. He Automatically refrained from referring to the American sol diers shot at Carrizal by Carranza's express order, or to the hundreds of citizens killed and the hun dreds of American women outraged by the Carranzistas throughout Mex ico. In a word, Mir. Wilson once more kissed the hand which had slapped his face and was red with the blood of American men, women and children"
 The Mexican Trump.
 According to Washington adviccs, Mir. Wilson expects to play trump card, late in October, which he is counting on to take all the cards in the political pack. He contcmplates an agreement through New ( London delegates and a treaty with Carranza which will provide for the retreat of the American troops, afford m excuse for withdrawing the militia from the border and enable the ad- to proclaim broadcast throughout the land that it has com ( posed the Mexican difficulty, upheld he hands of Carranza in his efforts O work out Mcxico's salvation and lvoidcd war. By staging this piece 3f business late enough in the cam 'aign, the Republicans, it is believed, , will have no time left to puncturc the i; beautiful bubble and expose its hol- owncSs.
