my power to assist him." He denied
that he had tcid anyone that the med

he didn't thiuk it feasible. He denied '
that he favored the American recog-f
nition of Huerta, but said, "The
Heurta government was strone and'
virile and with the American recogni-
tion could weather the dissension and
establish peace.
"I am not here to advise the presi
dent as to any eourse of action in
Mexico," the ambassador continued.
"I am merely here to make a first
hand report of the conditions there,
and to tell what I have done during
the turbulant times. I am merely do
ing part of the work for which the
government nay3 me $17,500 a year.
"Personally I never recognized the
Heurta overnment. I attended his re
ceptions and even made him a speech
but that is not recognizing his govern
ment. I merely recognize the defacto
government that then existed."
Wilson charged the violation of con
fidence in the publication of a charge
that Mrs. Madero had forged the sig
nature of various letters. He added
that he could easily prove the charge.
Wilson admitted that he expected to
return to Mexico. t
available stock will be materially re.
duced. Wallowa Knights however, wil"
be able to make arrangements readily
because of their acquaintance here anc
also because they can bring their own
horses if necessary. -
