Notwithstanding expert opinion that mediation should not be considered and the views of Ambassador Wilson, who yesterday informed him that in his opinion conciliation of this kind should not be attempted, the Presi dent is determined, it in said, to try mediation flrst, either through a con ciliating commission or by direct ap peal to the warrng factions in Mexico Foreigners in Mexico City Await Next Move in Fear.

All foreigners are anx iously awaiting the flrst move by President Wilson. Envoy Called Before Senate Committee.
