NO DEVELOPMENTS IN MEXICAN SITUATION, Messages Received Yesterday Related Only to Routine Matters. Washington, Aug. 31.—Secretary of State Bryan Upon his return today from a Short lecture trip announced that nothing had been received at the state department from Mexico City to cause any alarm or to change the dip- lomatic situation that exists between this government and the provisional government in Mexico City. The secretary remained at his home all day, keeping in touch with the state department by telephone, and was glad of the opportunity to et a rest. A few messages were received fro mthe em- bassy at Mexico City relating to rou- tine develonments, such as supplying Americans with means to leave Mex- ico, and a brief message came from the special American envoy, John Lind, at Vera Cruz. Mr. Lind, it was reasserted, would remain in Vera Cruz tomorrow, at least, so far as administration officials here ‘had any knowledge of his plans. That . the administration still is con- | tent to wait for expe:ted hopeful de- velopments is apparent on every hand, President Wilson planning to remain in Concord, N.

The president's personal repre- sentative, John Lind, is still awaiting instructions from Washington, but so far he has not received any indication from the Mexican government that it would be willing to make more conces- sions to the American demands. It was considered not improbable that For- eign Minister ‘Gamboa’s explanation that General Huerta could not Become a candidate for the presidency at the next elections because of the constitu- | tional amendment made during the | Madero administration, might be con- | | strued by the American representatives | as an assurance that he would with- | draw definitely from the _executive | | ower after October at the latest, but | Mr. Lind is fully cognizent that the | Mexican constitution does not prevent | General Huerta from resigning and {board the steamer George Washing- Big Blast in Panama Ganal TWENTY LONG TONS OF DYNA- MITE WERE USED PACIFIC END OPENED Last Barrier Blown Up Yesterday in Presence of 1,500 Spectators—Atlan- tic Barrier Now to be Removed.

Equally interesting as the explosion was the actual breaking of the bar- rier this afternoon, the tide creepir steadily up until ‘at 1.35 o'clock it was level with the top of the gap.
