That ends it." President la Impatient. While the seuato held up the resolu tion supporting his policy in Mexiea President Wilson fumed with im pationce today. His impatience was natural. Kithor already iu tno custom house at Vera Cruz or about to bo unloaded there, ho had learned, were 200 Krupp machine guns of the latest model and 2,000,000 rounds of ammunition ordered in Ger many by President Huorta for the esiecial purpose of defending the Vera Cruz Mexico City railroad. To gain control of this railroad will be one of the United States' forces first tasks in Mexico. Uuless they previously seize the German arms and ammunition shipment it is certain that it will bo used against themselves. Yet tho president hesitated at order ing the seizure without congressional approval of his course. In fact, assum ing the shipment to be still on board a German ship, seizure was out of the question under international law with out the previous declaration of a block ade and, again, the executive waute 1 the lawmakers to sanction him bofoie he declared a blockade. ' Resolution Is Amended. - Tho resolution of approval of tho president's course had already been so amended in the senate as to make it appear that the administration's quar rel is with tho Huorta government rather than with Huerta himself. In this form, it was expected it would be n.lni.tcl lint it will hn necessary for it will also be eountod iu tho awarding of to j,ack to the house even then, prize).

Sir Lionel ('anion, recently appointed British minister at Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, was expected to reach Mexico City during the day.' Diplomats hoped ho would persuade Huerta to yield to the United States but there is very little chance of him receding from his present belligerent stand. President Huerta has assured the American transportation committee, that even if war comes, he will give Americans here all possible aid. ones in the state that will participate In thoso demonstrations. According to tho county agriculturist homo canning machines, which can bo purchased for only a few dollars, will revolutionize the canning process of the housewife. The canning under steam pressure permits a moro perfect sterilization of tho fruit, it is claimed, if tho Mexican dispute were a persona! oiio between himself ami President nuerta it was tho pretty general opiv ion that President Wilson made a mis take and that this was what had caused tho delay. The opinion grew more genoral as the day advanced that the army woulu soon bo involved in a Mexican cam and it permit the use of tin cans and j pajgn, though President Wilson has FARMER'S WIFE TOO ILLTO WORK A Weak, Nervous Sufferer Restored to Health by Lyy dia E.
