A Hopeful Outlook.

MEXICO AND THE U.S.A. OUTSIDE INFLUENCE AT WORK. [By Electeio Telegraph—Copyright] [United Tarns Association.l Washington, April 27. ' Britten, German anil French influence is being strongly used to induce tho United States to make every effort to settle the Mexican difficulty peacefully. The President has expressed his full approval oi' such a course. Huerta having formally accepted the offer of mediation", distinctly improves the outlook. It is understood that order prevails throughout Mexico City. No Americans were killed, although some anti-American rioting took place. The Pan-American Union has issued a statement approving of the United States' Pacific attitude, and hopes that Americans will curb the rising war spirit.

Reassuring messages are arriving for the peaceful removal of refugees from Mexico.

"HUERTA MUST CO." Washington, April 27. President Wilson declares that whatever mediation may produce he will stand firm by his original declaration that Huerta must go. Refugees arriving at Galveston from Tampico report barbarous treatment. A'illa is still angling for American support. He. suggests that lie and his men be taken by American transports to Vera Cruz and let loose against Huerta's force. Congress is still somewhat bellicose, but displays a strong desire to allow President Wilson to proceed with mediation without embarrassment. The formal occupation of Vera Cruz has been proclaimed. The situation is quiet there.
