WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.—Word came direct from President Wilson himself to-day that the United States had never requested permission to send mafines to Mexico City and had not discussed nor taken up the sub- fect in any way with Mexican officials. For several days there has been considerable discussion in official cir- cles about the sending of a Legation guard to Mexico City similar to those went by Great Brit@in and Germany, and, while it is admitted that the Washington Administration had been considering the advisability of such a@ step, it was positively stated that no decision in the matter had been reached. It also has been reported here for some time that the Huerta Govern- mont was not averse to having foreign countries send Legation guards to Mexico City, and that. the diplomatic representatives in Mexico City from practically all the nations had recommended such action. The United States has each time been advised previously of the inten- tion of other countries to send marines to Mexico and has offered no objec- tions. Very recently President Wilson told callers he saw no occasion to fol- | low the action of other nations in; sending marines to Mexico City. It was stated to-day that his position is unchanged.
