I in r operations suspended by the warIn that country was Issued at the StateDepartment
The Department slves notice that therelias been no Improvement In conditions InMexico such as to warrant Americans at-tempting; to resume, their industrial
there.The following statement was made
public;"Reports have come to the Department
nf State from various quarters of the ex-
istence upon the part of numerous Amer-icans who left Mexico last August of adisposition to return to that country withii view to resume Industrial Inthe belief that prospective conditions Jus-tf- y
such action."It will be recalled that relief work
was carried out on a very broad scaleduring the past summer In removingAmericans from the zones of danger inMexico.

conduct of private business en-
terprise.considered here that the Depart-
ment's Information superior any re-
ceived through private souices, becausethe entire country covered by theUnited States Consult, who tend fre-quent reports business and politicalconditions.
The Department's statement refersthe period Just after President WilsonIssued his warnings American leaveMexico. understood the Admin-istration does pot desire Americansreturn consldeiable number thistime lest tho work done last summerbe made necessary all over again.
No Information regarding the confer-ence between the President and John I.lnon the cruiser Chester last night hasbeen received here. The State Departmentneither was consulted nor Informed
the conference.There some reason bellevo state-
ments mado In reliable qu liters urobe believed that the principal reasonfor the conference was the eleslroJohn I.lnd convey directly the Presi-dent certain Ideas which have been form-ing his mind during Ills long exileIn Mexico.
I.lnd'a Vlfiu (,'liiiiiuril.said that l.lml now entertain
views regarding the Mexican situationquite different from those he took dow:iwith him and feels very strongly thosubject. I.lnd's experiences Mexico,
with his study of the situation,are said have convinced him that theUnited Status should take more positiveaction and not conftno Itself "watch-ful waiting" for the fall of PresidentHuerta.
President Wilson's special agent re-
ported have become more of the mindof practically all Americans and otherforeigners In Mexico regarding the policyof the United States, From the brevitynf his conference with the President undthe lack of any Important announcementfrom the latter after the conferenceassumed here that Mr. I.lnd ventured
make aiiy suggestions of change theywere not accepted by the President.
The apparent lack of results from theconference has served remind Wash-ington of unothcr notable conferencewhich President Wilson hail last summerwith man who was supposed by virtueof his long residence Mexico and ex-
perience dealing with the MexicanGovernment have special Information
the subject. This was thu conferencewith Henry Lane. Wilson.

statements thei press following thesetwo conferences was noted with Interesthere After his tulk with theformer Ambassador tho President saidwith unmlstakablo emphasis that his

He told the newspaperto-d- practically the same thing, though
picsumed his words were withoutcertain acrimony which marked thosefollowing his talk with Henry I.. Wilson.
In other words, the opinion herothat the President has his own IdeasMexico and not particularly InterestedIn what any one else has about it.

DE LA LAMA OPTIMISTIC.
Financial Knvoy Hays ConditionsAre lletter In Memlcn.
Special Cable lletpalch to Tnc Sin.Paws, Jan. 3. Senor Adolfo de la
I..ama. President Hucrta's special envoy,who came to Europe to get funds for theMexican Government, received the news-paper correspondents y and toldthem that conditions In Mexico have be-
come much better In tho last three weeks,both commercially and financially.
He Is confident that Oen. Huerta willbe able to reestablish order and that thonext election will be held In June.
Senor de la Lama confirmed the reportthat 85 per cent, of the bondlielders ofthe Mexican National Railways have accepted the terms of payment of the In-
terest arranged In Ixindon. lie confirmedalso the statement that the French bankshad refused to take up the option on a'oun of 125,000,000 which expired 011
December 31. A further option Is stillIn force for the next six months.
President Huerta's envoy said he hadnot proposed any modification of theterms of the 1913 loan with a view to get-
ting tho bankers who lent the money tocancel the pledge of 38 per cent, of theMexican customs receipts.
Senor de la l.ama will remain threoweeks longer In Kurope. He Intends toplace his sons In school In Switzerlandand plans to return to Mexico via NewYrk.
The Mexican financial agent was moreanxious to obtain news than to give In-
formation. Ho desired especially to knowhow tho United States regards the pres-ence of Charge d'Affalres O'Shaughni'Ssyat President Hucrta's New Year's recep-tion In Mexico city.
He laid stress on the fact that Mr.O'Shaughnessy accompanied the otherdiplomatic representatives and thereforehis presence ennnot be construed asmerely n personal visit, which would nothave been surprising In view of the goodrelations which exist between Uen.Huerta and the American charge.
Senor de la l.ama wondered If Mr.O'Shaughnessy went to the reception onhis own Initiative or was Instructed to doso by Washington.
Another matter on which Senor ele laI.ama sought Information w.is thu Intel --
view of John I.lnd and President Wil-son on board the Chester and whatcredibility could be placed In the reportsou has undergone a change. Ho said hehad found sentiment in Kurope stronglyIn favor of President Huerta.
Francisco de la Harm Is still the ac-credited diplomatic representative ofPresident Huerta In Paris. He Is on hisway back from Japan to hisduties here.
