Senate May Heed W. Alden's
Smith Allegation That Ad
ministration Is Inuenced.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8—The Sen.
ate Lobby Inquiry Committee to-day
runs the risk of having its burdens
increased by an inquiry into the Mex
ican lobby which Senator William Al-
den Smith charged during debate yes
terday exists in Washington and
which is furnishing “hearsay, hap
hazard propagandt*,” on which, he de
clared. President Wilson and Secre
tary Bryan are basing their Mexican
policy.
When the committee met, Senator
Cummins inquired of James A. Em
ery, chief lobbyist for the National
Association of Manufacturers, about
the formation of the National Tariff
Commission Association in 1909. Em
ery explained that it was the out
growth of sentiment expressed by
members of the N. A. M. and was
organized by James W. VanCleave.
Members contributed money to press
their propaganda. They opposed the
Beveridge tariff commission bill, said
Emery.
Senator Nelson asked Emery wheth
er James Watson was employed by
the N. A. M. and of the National
Council of Industrial Defense.
“Neither.”
“Was he employed by the Tariff
Commission Association?”
“He told me so himself.”
The N. A. M. contributed to the
Xtaional Tariff Association, but diu
not directly employ Watson, the wit
ness declared.
On account of the death of Sena
tor Johnston, of Alabama, the com
mittee adjourned till Monday. *

tution unless he makes out his mis
sion to be favorable to Huerta’s aims.
Section 33 provides ihat persons of
suspicious intentions snail be driven
from* the country and not be allowed
to return except on special permission
from the Government.
It was decided that no official greet
ing shall be extended to Mr. Lind,
thus breaking a tradition which is as
immemorial as diplomacy itself.
After the conference Senor Aldape
«aid:
"The Government has decided upon
a definite course of action to be fol
lowed in the present situation, and
ve believe that it will be approved by
all persons of justice. President
Huerta is striving to re-establish or- j
der in Mexico^ and he believes that j
outside interference, unless invited,
would do more harm than good
President Huerta has the good of
Mexico at heart, and I know that he
would make great sacrifices in behalf
of his country.”
that Special Ambassador Lind would
he persona non grata to the Mexican
Government unless he brought the
proper credentials with him, had been
received at the State Department to
day and that the President now has
it under consideration.

ment, the battleship Michigan to-day

States was peparalng for active in
tervention and the Michigan, there
fore. was moved farther down the
coast, where she will remain for fur
ther orders.

Mexico’s Defy Ignored
Until Lind Delivers Note.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—Pending
the arrival in Mexico of ‘John Lind,
special and personal representative
of President Wilson, this Govern
ment will lake no action with re
spect to the defy issued by the Mexi
can foreign office threatening to de
port former Governor Lind as an un
desirable alien.
Offical confirmation of the issuance
of the threat has reached the State
Department, but Secretary Bryan and
other Government officials say the
United States will make no move un
til it is seen whether the Mexican
Government intends to carry out its
threat.
Former Governor Lind is due to
reach Vera Cruz to-night. If he
makes gbod connections he should get
to Mexico City in time for a con
ference with President Huerta to
morrow afternoon. It is believed here
the Mexican President will be forced
to confer with President Wilson’s
representative, if only to discover the
nature of the communication it has
been admitted the former Governor of
Minnesota carries with him. <
Should President Huerta deem it
best to expel Mr. Lind, the United
States may be forced to take drastic
measures? but it is hoped at the State
Department that this undesirable al
ternative will be avoided by a change
of front on the part of the Mexican
President after he receives land’s
message from President Wilson, the
contents of which Is unlmown here
to anyone save the President and
Secretary Bryan.

dent, Secretary Bryan to-day an
