TOLD TO GERMAN REICHSTAG Policy of United States Regarding Mexican Situation. Berlin, Feb. 14.The Mexican sit uation came up for discussion in the imperial parliament. Dr. Alfred Zim mermann, under secretary of state for foreign affairs, answered an in terpellation by two of the National Liberal leaders as to whether Pro visional President Huerta has made representations to Germany in regard to the raising of the embargo on arms by the United States. Dr. Zimmermann said the United States government, when it informed Germany of the raising-of the embar go, had expressed the conviction that nobody outside of, Mexico could en force a settlement of that country's difficulties. The restoration of peace in Mexico, he said, could be hoped for only if the Mexican parties,were allowed to fight out their quarrels without inter ference and the raising of the embar go merely gave American citizens the same right of selling arms as was en joyed by other nations.
