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.
