Acute Situation Likely Dur

| Washington. September 1s.-In an
ticipation of important Developments
In connection with the Mexican prob
lem next week, State Department Of
icials have been giving much atten-
| ton to the execution OF plans for the
withdrawal In safety OF tho Americans
In Mexico. who can be induced to leave
| that country. The immediate result
OF the state Departments warning was
to gather number OF suoh refugees
in tho seaports. but most OF them
now have been brought TO the United
States, and American oonsuls in Mexico
report notable diminution in tho
number OF Amer.oans now .omeward

1t is believed those now In tho coun-
try have decided to remain and take
the chances of protection at tho hands
or tho Huerta government. 1t has not
been possible to obtain an estimate OF
| their numbers. but 1t Is known that
at least a majority OF tho Americans
| already have left the country.
American consular officers in Mexico
have been keeping lists of all Ameri-
can property from which the owners
have withdrawn, in order TO establish
a basis for the settlement Of claims
which may arise after the revolution
airy movement has ended. In each
case the proper Mexican local Official
has been notified of withdrawal, In
order that he might take steps to pro-
vent robbery or footing OF tho property.
No Purpose to Intervene.
The President has expressly stated
that his suggestion for the withdrawal
of these Americans Is not to be re-
garded as e. sign of his purpose to
Intervene In Mexico, and that 1t WAS
based solely upon the belief set out
In his last message to Congress. deal
ing with tho subject of Mexico. that as
the situation In that country becomes
more acute, Americans should with
draw.
Next week Is expected to mark tho
development Of just such an acute
stage as the President Is supposed to
have had in mind. The Mexican Con-
gross will assemble Tuesday to receive
special message from Provisional
President Huerta dealing with the re-
bellion. and particularly with the influ-
ence upon that movement of tho atti-
tude of the United States government.
1t is realized in official circles here
that much Importance Will attach to
the tone of that communication.
Coincident with the message from
Huerta to the Mexican Congress Will |
be the patriotic demonstration for the |
same day. Under orders from the gov
eminent, army officers have gathered
up all the able-bodied citizens not al
ready In the military service. and are
arming and drilling them under tho
claim that they were being prepared
TO participate in this demonstration of
approval OF the existing government
With the military ardor OF these thous-
ands OF undisciplined spirits kindled
anti American demonstrations might
follow. but Huerta has given strict in
structions that every effort be made
to repress any such ebullitions.

for the position, are for the whole
program.
The whole makes a good election
cry for the liberals, who ask why the
colonies, in whose fiscal policy the
mother country has no voice, should
decide the policy of the United King
dom.
1t may, too. have a distinct bear
ing on home rule, when that measure
reaches the house of lords. II is said
that the Ulster peers and many of
the English unionist lords, who were
never very energetic supporters of
Mr.. Chamberlain's policy. are willing
to throw over tariff reform to save
the union, whereas many others are
willing to carry home rule in some
form or other, hoping thereby TO OBJ
tain another election on tariff reform.
Some of Mr.. Chamberlain's followers
have already canvassed the possibili-
~ of letting the home rule bill pass,
believing that when that is out of the
way the government will be willing to
go to the country, and the road viii
be cleared for their pet hobby.
