Await Next Move in Fear.
MEXICO CITY. July 29.—That
Americans and other foreigners are in
danger if the United State? fails to
recognize the Huerta administration
in Mexico, is the opinion prevailing
here. While high Government officials
decline to discuss the impending
crisis. Minister of Gubernacion iTr-
rutia. who is generally regarded as
the mouthpiece of the Huerta Gov
ernment, has been predicting that
President Wilson will recognize the
administration by to-morrow.
It is believed the conflicting views
of Ambassador Wilson and the Presi
dent presage the announcement of the
plan for mediation by the United
States. The plan will not be accepted
by Huerta, according to Government
officials, as interference by the United
States Is unwelcome.
Disquieting rumors are being circu
lated freely. All foreigners are anx
iously awaiting the first move by
President Wilson.

The coats are much longer than last season, and are in cutaway
style; some taper to a decided point in back.

through to very rich mahogany. Red tones are good, too—very dark,
shading into wines and mulberry. Blues, of course, are in favor and
many new shades are shown.
