MEXICO.
JAP ATTITUDE TO DIAZ. CURT TREATMENT. [By Electric Telegraph—copyright] [United Press Association.;' (Received 11.55 a.m.) Vancouver, August 12. General Diaz, before sailing for Japan, was notified that the Japanest Government would not receive him ex cepfc in hi* private capacity. No rea son was assignee].
Mr Emterio do la Garaa, who warecently sent to the United State;by President Huerta, in order thai ho might press the claims of tin Huerta regime to recognition stated: —"I do not seo why you should blame us, who have opposed reckless me thods and haven't had a chance to take any part in the public affairs oi the country, for what is a natural inevitable consequence of a longstanding personal vigorous despotism which, it is true, advanced Mexico ir material progress, but also killer public spirit and drove the country back a hundred years in its nationa life. Now, when 'we find ourselvc: in such a hard condition, it is onl*-_ the United States, to whom during tin last thirty-five years everything ha: been granted its citizens, that demons help. It is only the Uniled State: contrary to the attitude of the whol< of Europe and of Central and Souti America/ to whom we did not rende; so many favors, that is withholding recognition or moral support, there by letting its neighbour go to pieces. bringing in the most cold and heart less way the ruin of a beautiful, ricJ and glorious country. If your Go vemment thinks -that Presiden Huerta is responsible for something why does it not say so? If your Go vernment is convinced that our Go vcrnment should be recognised because it has all the de facto, and dt jure, requirements for recognition, why does it not do so? The cas( deals not only with the problems o' Mexico itself, but with the large ano heavy American investments in tha country, which since the start always relied and looked to their Government as its principal and sure source oi' protection and guarantee in case o' trouble. But I see that there is no consideration of Mexican affairs or any consideration of American affairs in Mexico that can move in any way your Government in Washington, which is the most extraordin ary case that I have known in all mv life." ~.'
