Taft 18 plainly worried by the fact A that, although he has only seven- L teen more days to serve in the White [} House, the Mexican situation shows 5 1fttle signs of becoming less trouble- some. Taft ‘told friends he realized how difficult 4t would be for the new administration to gather up the reins of governmetn and understand the conditions in the southern republic in a few weeks or months. In his opinion it will take Wilson and his cabinet at least sixth months to grasp the details of diplomatic negotiation of troops-and battleship movements. and internal niceties which he and his cabinet acquired in two years of close study of the conditions. He says he will be president up to the last day. Should congress demand action the last day he will act. AUTO BANDIT CONFESSES.
