New York, March 13.-The Mexi-
can ambassador and the Mexican
minister of finance received assur-
ances from Washington tonight which
convinced them there is sincere CO.
operation between the administration
of President Taft and that of Presi-
dent Diaz.
II is not professed that all tension
has been relieved, and while Ameican
troops remain in force on the Mexi-
can border 1t is admitted some tension
will continue, but apprehension was
appreciably lessened by two pieces of
news.
First in importance was long
telegram to Ambassador de La Barra
from the State Department, announc-
ing that the American warships as
signed to patrol duty on the Pacific
and Gulf coasts of Mexico had been
ordered to call at Mexican ports only
for coal and then to withdraw
promptly.
This action is reassuring to Senior
Limantour. In recent interview he
said he could only consider the pres
ence of American men-of- war in
Mexican waters so far distant from
their base at Galveston, as part of an
unnecessary effort TO impress on Mex
leo the power of the United States
His personal protest was promptly
followed by official representations,
and tonight he expressed himself as
very much gratified that the request
of his government had been SO
promptly granted"
Ambassador de La Barra added
that the action was highly satisfac-
tory to his government. and that per-
feet understanding exists between the
two governments regarding the mat
ter
The second development was the
publication here of an authorized in
terview with Jacob NJ. Dickinson. the
Secretary of War, in which he denied
that this government contemplated
intervention or that orders had been
issued to mobilize a second army
corps on the frontier. A rumor to
that effect, originating in Galveston,
was current here but General Leon
ard Wood, in Washington, added his
denials to those of Secretary Dickin-
son.
Regarding the telegram from
Washington. Ambassador de La Barra
said it contained assurances that
President Taft wished to reiterate
the expressions Of good feeling and
friendship on the part of the United
StSates government toward the Mexi-
cans which he expressed to the Amer
lean ambassador at a recent inter-
view"
OF all the important finant ial visi-
tors to Senor Limantour, not )ne has
yet had q single word to say. Weight
is therefore to be attached to A state
ment issued tonight from the Offices
of Ladenburg, Thalmann & Co, fiscal
agents here for the Mexican govern
ment and associated in the tlofation OF
the National Railways of Mexico TO
the foreign correspondents.
After most careful investiga-
ton" says the statement in part. 1--WE
can say on best authority that the
Mexican government feels absolutely
safe to handle the international dis
turbances. and that steps are being
taken, not only to dispose of this situ-
alton, but that intention exits to
carry through certain administrative
reforms which should mean much for
restoring satisfactory conditions in the
interior Public sentiment, both here
and in Mexico, has been much eased
in the last few days by the publica-
tion of diplomatic exchanges
