Mexfco City, Dec. 1s--The Mexican X xunboat Guerro may not go to Corin- to, Nicaragua. Minister of War Con gales said tonight that he had not given any orders for the vessel to sail to Corinto nor had he been instructed to issue such an order. He admitted. however, that the gunboat is in readt- ness to sail at any moment If II should be desired that 1t make the voyage The Guerre is still at San Cruse.
 ( It was officially stated that 1t was the intention of the government few days ago to order the vessel to Nica- raguan waters. but it now appears probable that the proposed journey will be abandoned. It is believed here that If Mexico sent the Guerro. or any other war vessel to Nicaragua. the United States might misinterpret the motive for such action. Reports from Washington to the effect that the act would doubtless be regarded as un- friendly oecasi yied considerable com ment in this capital. omcials of the Mexican government continued to as- sert the utmost frfendliness towards the Washington government.
 As Enrique Greet Is in Washington as the representative of President Diax, the government officials here de- clare there Is no occasion for them to discuss the Nicaraguan situation for publication.

formed put ties of the material two
inches and a half wide. These may be
hemstitched all around. or they can be
