DISCLOSURES
EXPECTED
SOON
Washington Believes More
Cabinet Differences to Be
Aired as Result of La1ls-
ing Discharge.
Especial United Press Wire. J

Especial United Press Wire.)
Washington, Feb. 16.-Further
disclosures are believed imminent in
the controversy between Wilson and
Lansing which resulted in the lat
ter's resignation as secretary Of
state.
One of the first will probably be
the publication of the letter of resig-
nation of Henry Fletcher, former
ambassador to Mexico. His letter is
understood to be q criticism of the
Wilson policy toward Mexico. Its
contents have been withheld and
nothing more than hint as to its
character has been permitted to leak
out since it's submission some time
ago.
A number of congressman are
seeking to bring the Wilson-Lansing
clash before the house or senate for
discussion. No leader in either
branch, however, is included among
these.
The source of i'll feeling between
President Wilson and Lansing be-
gan while they were in Paris, it was
learned. After Wilson's return to
Washington the first time, it was
learned, he disagreed with Lansing
over many proceedings in which the
latter participated, but he left Lans
ing in Paris again when he returneo
to America after the German treaty
was signed. He later recalled Lans
ing and sent Frank Polk to take his
| place.
