Mr. Lind's connection with them, it was stated, would not be ap- arent. His mission, it was explained, s to substitute unofficially for Am- bassador Henry Lane Wilson, whose personal views of the Mexican contro- versy were so pronounced as to make it embarrassing for the administration here to communicate them through him. Statement from Senator Bacon. . Further enlightenment as to the er- rand of Mr. Lind and the policy the president has formed came tonight from Senator Bacon, chairman of the #enate committee on foreign relations. To explain various interpretations. of last night's conference between the president and the foreign relations committee, Senator Bacon made the following statement: “The foreign relations committee recognizes that the president is act- Ing in good faith in trying to solve this probiem peacefully. “The president’s undertaking is with that view and in that general purpose the committee is in accord and has confidence in his sincerity and- integ: rity.

For a Constitutional Election, From~other sources it was learned that the administration ‘will carry out the programme originally planned, being guided by Mr. Lind’s reports on the situation. It was stated authori- tatively that the American government had no intention of calling on Pres- ident Huerta formally to resign his office and that any representations made would be to call attention to | earlier promises for a free and con- stitutional election, pointing out that recognition by the United States must be withheld until such elections take place.

Many Amer- icang have found refuge on board the battleships of Rear Admiral Fletcher's squadron, but as the battleships can go into only & few of the larger harbors, it was ‘decided to dispatch a vessel of light draft to drop into shallow harbors along the coast. The Tacoma will proceed at once to Norfolk for coal and then steam south- ward, probably to join the battleships oft Vera Cruz LIND AT MEXICO CITY.

Y., Aug. 10.—After a long conference tonight with some of his political advisers Governor Sul- ued a short statement deny i utely thai he ever used campaign funds for - speculative purposes.

The senator said he expected a large attendance of legis- lators, as all had been wired to be present. Democrats Will Have Enough Votes. In view of the vital Importance of the attitude of ‘the 17 republican sena- tors in case the assembly determines to institute impeachment proceedings, it is recalled that early in the regular session Senator Elon R. Brown, the re- publican leader, intimaied broadly that if it could be proven that Mr. Sulzer during his campaign bargained with certain labor leaders to support a full railrcad crew bill in return for sup- port from labor organizations, that fact would constitute grounds for im- peachment. ‘The general impression is that, with a majority of more than two-tihirds in the assembly, there will be enough democratic votes in that body to initi- ate the impeachment proceedings with- out the aid of the republicans or pro- gressives. : A girl can enjov a kiss In the dark, She doesn’t have to worry for she can not blash.

COMPLICATIONS IN IMPEACHMENT TRIAL DATE Would Be About October 11 In Busiest Part of Election Campaign. | | Alany, N. Y, Aug. 10—Lawyers here have expressed great interest in the point raised that no impeachment trial of Gov. Sulzer can be had at an extraordinary session because of the constitutional prohibition against any actior. at such a session, except at the iative of the governor himselm. it is pointed out in this connection 4hat if this contention were well grounded it would be impossible (o re- move a governor at a time when the |legislature was not in _session even | though he should be guilty of any self- confessed mulfeagance that would war- rant his removal According to the governor's opponents, such an absurd- ity would be entirely inconsonant with the cntire structure of the laws. i As the law specifies that in cases of | | impeachment charges being presented | |at lecst thirty days.must be given be- fore trial can begin, the earliest poss ble date at which the trial court could be convened would be October 11, less than a month before the fall election, at which a new assembly will be chos- en. That would bring the trial into | the most heated period of the cam- paign, with no reasonable probability of its termination hefore the election. There is wide speculation as to the | possible result of this on the govern- | {or’s announced special _campaign | against all assemblymen of whatever | party who do not agree with his di- | rect primary views.

London, Aug. 10.—The third attempt of the suffragettes under command of Svivia. Pankhurst to take Premier Asquith’s house in Downing street by storm failed today when the mil- itant leader was captured by a cordon of police thrown across Whitehall af- | ter a stiff fight in which the police used their clubs. The trouble began after a mass meeting held under the auspices of the free speech defense committee which was qalled to demand the uncondi- tional " release of George Lansbury, former socialist member of the housa of commons, who was sentenced July 30 to three months’ imprisonment for making inflammatory speéches, but who was released August 2nd under the “cat and mouse act” while on a hunger strike. Spoke from Nelson Column. i Miss Pankhurst had refused an in- vitation to make a speech at this meeting when informed that she would not be permitted to urge her hearers to march upon Downing street. The free speech speakers today advised the crowd not to attack the premiers residence, but at the close of their meeting Miss Pankhurst, true to her promise made last week, mounted the plinth of the Nelson column and in fiery words ordered her sympathiers to follow her. Flying Wedge of Dackmen. Hatle: her hair bound close to her head, the young militant leader started down Whitehall surrounded by sev- eral women carrying the Women's So- cial and Political Union flag surmount- ed by a red liberty cap and preceded by a flving wedge of dockmen and other husky east enders. Police Strategy. The squads of police in Trafalgar square allowed the procession to leave the square and then fell in behind. The suffragette sympathizers saw the reason for this strategical mave when they found a battle line of heavy pelicemen drawn across Whitehall at the Horge Guards, the office of the inspector gen- eral of the forces. Fifteen Arrests Made. The militants attacked . this. line with such dash and courage that a few of them penetrated the first cof- don, where the fight became 8o fierce that the police used their clubs. Re- serves of police then rushed up and Sylvia Pankhurst and five other wo- men and nine men were arrested and taken to the police station im taxi- cabs. Police Cleared the Streets. Disheartened at the fate of their leader, the mob sullenly dispersed.
