HUERTA FAILS TO KEEP
OFFICIAL ENGAGEMENT
WITH 0'SHAUGHNEsSY

Mexico City, Dec. 1.-The disappear
ance of President Huerta for several
hours today gave rise to a rumor that
he had fed to Vera Cruz. But Huerta
soon set these rumors at rest by re-
turning with the announcement that
he had been staying at the home of a
friend in the suburbs.
Huerta's temporary disappearance
was in the line with his recent failure
to keep the appointment he had made
with Special Envoy Lind, after promIs-
ing compliance with the demands of
the United States. Yesterday he failed
to keep an official engagement with
Charge d'Affaires OShaughnessy
The latter refused to make any COM
ment today. but it was limited that the
convivial habits of the Provisional Presi-
dent probably were responsible for the
lapses-
A report current tonight that the fed
eral forces had been withdrawn from
Chihuahua was denied at the war office
1t was stated that the force at Chihuahua
was amply equipped to deal with the
Villa and Carranza forces.

600 AMERICAN AND
MEXICAN FUGITIvES CROSS
BORDER AT LAREDO

Laredo, Tex. Dec. IAN exodus of
refugees from Mexico is now on through
this port, about 600 Mexicans- and Ameri-
cans arriving this morning, while six
more coach loads arrived tonight on the
train from Monterey. Most of the refu-
gees are wealthy Mexican families, who
are fleeing from Mexico to the United
States, claiming that conditions in their
country were such as to warrant them to
depart at once.
OF the 600 people arriving this morning.
there were about eighty Americans, a
number of wealthy Spaniards. and the
others Mexicans These people state
that the deplorable conditions existing in
the republic are growing worse daily,
and that the thousands OF unemployed
are on the verge of starvation, and loot
ing is feared at any moment.
Among the recent arrivals here were
ten members of the Madero family, all
of them near relatives OF the late Presi-
dent Madero.
It is reported that a large crowd OF
Americans from Mexico City en- route to
Laredo will reach here in several days.

REVoLUTIoNIsTS SUCCESS
IN NORTHERN MEXICO Is AN
ENCOURAGEMENT TO U. s

With the northern revolutionists meet
ing with continued success, according to
advices from Mexico. the Wilson admin
Istration sees no reason why it should
alter its policy of waiting for the fall
of Huerta. This was authoritatively in
dicated here yesterday.
The recent striking successes of the
constitutionalists have revived the hope
in washington that the United States
will be spared any embarrassment re-
garding Mr. Huerta; that he will be
rakeu care OF by the forces now operat-
ing in his own country under the name
of the revolution.
William Bay rd Hale, President Will
sons unofficial investigator and negoti-
ator. had a long talk with Secretary
Bryan yesterday and gave him an ac-
count OF his experiments in talking with
the revolutionist leaders he met on his
recent visit to Nogales on the Arizona
Sonora line. Yesterdays report TO Mr..
Bryan was largely supplementary. as he
advised the President and the State De-
partment daily of the progress of his
discussions with Gen. CarranZa when he
was on the border. Neither Mr.. Hale
nor the Secretary discuss in any way
the details of their work.
Further reports were received from
Rear Admiral Fletcher, commanding
the American warships on the east
coast OF Mexico, regarding the situa-
ton in the oil region. Rear Admiral
Fletcher said the federal commanders
at Tampico and Tuxpan have assured
him they will do their utmost to pre-
vent any destruction of the property
in the oil district. 1t is understood
each side has given its word not 10
interfere with the operation of the
oil properties. This latter assurance
is taken with a grain OF salt, however,
for each side has held thus far that the
refusal of any oil company to pay
taxes or forced loans" constitutes
action justifying retaliation which is
not to be regarded as Interference.

I'VE will supply the music and accom-

in person by Prof. Otto T. Simon, who
will have the direction Of the chorus at
the celebration. This rehearsal need not
last longer than one hour so that the
young folks who take part will be able
to reach their homes by o'clock.
THE entire city is taking a deep in
terest in this very pretty ceremony
which has been planned for Christmas
Eve, and 1 trust that the matter will
have the hearty cooperation OF not only
yourself and the principals Of the High
Schools, but of the scholastic body gen.

said Mr.. Embrey last night. This work
does not show much on the surface, for
it is on the smaller details, but things
are coming well, and all We ask is that
the singers of the city watch the papers
for the rehearsal dates. and stand ready
to help whenever they can"

Villa Holds to Plans.
The movement Of families from the
city of Chihuahua has placed additional
credence in the report that federals have
evacuated the state capital.
The report OF the evacuation of Chihua-

as to the campaign against Chihuahua
and will continue his preparations until
he learns definitely whether or not the
town has been evacuated. He announced
tonight that he would not leave Juarez
until Thursday, when the headquarters
