THE MEXICAN TROUBLED.

United Press Association—By Elec-

tric Telegraph—Copyright. Washington, August 27. President Wilson has declared that there'will he no armed intervention in Mexico under any circumstances. The preservation of strict neutrality with vigorous protection of American subjects and property constituted his policy.

PRESIDENT WILSON OPTIMISTIC.

“Times—Sydney Sun Special • Cables.”

London, August 28,

President Wilson still professes optimism regarding the Mexican situation, and is submitting a special message to Parliament respecting Huerta. Similar messages in similar situations in the past have always resulted in war. . A resolution allotting £5,000.000 for tha protection of lives and property of United States citizens in Mexico has been introduced. The Senators are somewhat depressed regarding the outlook. The proposals from President Wilson that were rejected by President Huerta included one providing for a complete cessation of hostilities, and another for the resignation of General Huerta in favour of an interim President.

Washington, August 28 President Wilson has warned, pll Americans to leave Mexico immediately London, August 28

The Chronicle says that the two chief reasons for President Wilson’s attitude are American sympathy for the Maderist insurgents and the American belief in the • efficiency of the baliot-bos. Had the United States stood in line with the other Powers Huerta could have obtained the requisite funds, and being supported as he is by the bulk of the country’s regular military and civil forces could have established ordered government throughout Mexico' President Wilson’s policy seems more likely to involve active intervention than ultimately to avert it. August 39, 9 a.m. London, August 28.

The Times reminds President Wilson that there has never been a genuine poll of the people of Mexico where elections are automatically conducted by the party in office Tbe Telegraph’s New York Correspondent says that the financial community regards the position wherein the whole Mexican affair is left by President Wilson’s message as disappoiuuting and unsatisfactory Wall Street had anticipated something beyond a mere non-committal statement. The recommendation that all Americans leave Mexico immediately is interpreted as showing that the situation is threatening.
