Says Mexican Invasion is Nothing More Than “Fiction.”

There is no prospect of U. S. invasion or intercession in the affairs of Mexico, according to President Wilson, who says that the report that U. S. marines had been ordered to land at Vera Cruz and keep the road open to Mexico City is nothing more than “interesting fiction.” The president says that the Huerta regime is slowly crumbling and holds that “natural decay” will result in Huerta’s ultimate withdrawal or removal from the office he usurped. ’ The senate foreign relations committee was called into conference with the president Monday, but It seems to have been for the discussion of general topics. A new treaty with Russia will await the arrival of the new American ambassador at St. Petersburg. The American government is on the way to a satisfactory adjustment of the difficulty with Columbia for the partition of Panama. The Japanese land controversy was talked over.
