Lind Expresses | His Good Intent American Interests Concerned In Rev. olution to Be Exposed by Special Senate Committee. Dispatches to the state department | in Washington from John Lind, the personal representative of President Wilson in Mexico, described his visit with Frederico Gamboa, Mexican min- ister of foreign relations. Though officials declined to discuss the dispatches, it was understood on good authority that the conversation extended beyond the mere formalities of a social call. Senor Gamboa and Mr. Lind talked briefly about the situation, and though | Mr. Lind did not reveal entirely the| purposes of his errand, he is declared | to have set at rest rumors that he was | coming to interfere directly in Mexi- | can politics. The general understand | ing in official circles is that Mr. Lind | had intimated the American govern- | ment would continue to oppose recog- | nition until a constitutional election | was held. Certain American interests alleged | to be concerned in ggvolutionary ac-! tiviiies in Mexico will be attacked in the report of the special senate com- mittee, which investigated conditions along the border. Senator Smith, of Michigan, chairman, laid an otline be- fore the foreign relations committee indicating the report would deal par- ticularly with activities of American representatives of the revolutionists and the aid they are reported to have received from the American side of the border in the Madero uprising and succeeding revolutions. A conference between President] Wilson and the house committee on| foreign affairs will be held soon. During the tariff debate in the sen- ate Senator Clapp, Progressive Re publican, referred in passing to Pres- ident Wilson and the Mexican si‘ua- tion. “l believe your president has the love and the confidence of the Am: ri- can people,” said he. “I do not share in the effort here or elsewhere to em- barrass him in the delicate situation which now confronts sim. “Though | would put a stop to the president dictating tariff bills, I would leave him alone in the delicate situa tion which now confronts him, believ- ing that he wili find the right solution. I believe he has shown wisdom in his high office.” Henry Lane Wilson, the furloughed ambassador to Mexico, issued a state ment attacking the recent statement accredited to the British foreign office declaring that Great Britain had re- cognized the Huerta government as a provisional government only; that its recognition was prompted by a desire to contribute to the restoration of or- der, and also because of Wilson's con- gratulatory speech on the occasion of the reception of the Mexico City diplo- matic corps by Fuerta. Mr. Wilson characterized the state- ment as “at variance with the tradi- tions of the British foreign office and with the character it has maintained before the world for two centuries.” “I doubt the genuineness of the statement, as it is a pure subterfuge unworthy of the British foreign office,” said Mr. Wilson in a lengthy discus sion. $20.000.000 FOR WATERWAYS Bixby's Report Includes Purchase of Chesapeake & Delaware Canal. General W. H. Bixby, chief of engi: neers, United States army, reported to congress favorably on a project to build an inland waterway from Boston to Beaufort, N. C,, at an expense to the government of $20,000,000. Bixby's plans call for a lock canal of twelve feet draft and ninety feet wide from the Delaware river to New York harbor. Among the recommendations is one that the Chesapeake & Delaware canal be purchased by the government, en- larged and made a sea level water way. It is proposed that New Jersey contribute $3,000,000 and Pennsylva nia $7,000,000 for the proposed sys tem. An appropriation of $100,000, with an annual appropriation thereafter of $500,000 a year is urged. Brothers Under Knife. Three brothers, Frank, Henry and M. A.

Cody, one of the best known aviators in England, and a pas-! senger, Lieutenant Evans, of the In-| dian civil service, were killed when Cody's monoplane turned turtle near! Aldershot, Eng., and buried both men under it when it crashed to earth. Cody's two sons, Leon and Frank, were amoug the spectators who saw the machine fall. Cody's neck was broken. The watchers saw the wings of the monoplane suddenly double up.’ The machine at once buckled and fell into a group of trees. | Cody's monoplane fell from a height | of 200 feet and was so broken up that it was impossible to tell what had caused the accident. “Colonel” 8. F. Cody was born an! American, but in 1909 took out nat- | ural.zation papers as a British citizen | in order that he might retain his con-| ! nection witk the British war depart. ment in the development of the aerial | corps of the army. i Cody was addressed as “Colonel” | by King George in a message of con- : gratulation upon his flights in 1912.
