Resignation of Ambassador Wilson Accepted Monday.
Henry Lane Wilson, who was recalled from Mexico City recently to inform President Wilson and Secretary Bryan arid the congress about the conditions in Mexico, will not be a member of the U. S. diplomatic corps after Oct. 14th. His resignation has been accepted by Secretary Bryan. The policy of the administration in dealing with Mexico is at variance with the views held by the ambassador, so it is said, and it is thought possible that Mr. Wilson has not maintained the proper impartiality between the contending forces in Mexico and it has been suggested in newspaper articles that he may have known of the plan to overthrow Madera before the coup was pulled off. It is also quite certain that he favors the recognition of the Huerta regime, which the United States has very properly refused to acknowledge. Huerta is quite defiant, according to a note sent to the United States, and states that no form-of mediation on the part of the United States will he toleiated. The president'and Secretary Bryan ate said to have evolved a policy which they think essential for the United States to take and will announce its provisions within a few days.
