No Ultimatum Has Been Sent Mexico

WASHINGTON, D.C., Nov. 10 – President Wilson discussed the Mexican situation today and cleared the atmosphere of many reports as to the intentions of the United States.

He made it clear that he had no present intention of addressing Congress on the subject because the situation was not in shape for him to have anything to say, and that, while certain representations have been made to the Huerta government, no reply has been received. He declared that no time limit was set on the reply from Huerta.
