grew ia satisfied that the President is
doing every thing that can be done un
der the eirenmstancea, and nowhere k
there seen-the slightest disposition to
embarrass him ot his program.
it waa learned at the -close of a con
ference at the White, House at whfcb
were Senator Cuilom, chairman of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Rela
tions, and Representative Sulzer, chair-
mmof theHouae Committee, on For
eign Affairs, that President Taft, for
the present at least does not jeontem
platesending' to Congress a special
message, dealing With Mexican affairs.
The President, however, is keeping the (
leaders of both parties in Congress
thoroughly acquainted with develop
ments, with the result that the closest
co-operstlon exists between the Capitol
and the White House. -
Positive assurance that - the Mexican
government will adopt a "definite- re
striction policy along the border, and
news from Dougla that the rebel fo -
ceshave evacuated ; Agua.Prieta, has
dona much to relieve the high tension
under which President Taft and mem
bers of his official family have labored.
The assurances from Mexico followed
demands of the State Department that
fighting which endangered American
lives in the border lown must be slop
ped.
Dispatches received at the White
House from Douglas -indicate that the
situation along the border is now quite
satisfactory.. A-message from Govern
or Sloan, of Arizona, said in psrt;
' Good order prevails, and situation
entirely satisfactory. ' Am satisfied
