AMERICAN REFUGEES
OBJECT TO STEERAGE
In Needing Pres. Wilson's Warning To
Leave Mexico, Preferring To Take
Their Chances in the Hos
tile Country.

Mexico City, Sept. 2.AIanv of the
Americans who are needing President
Wilson's warning to leave Mexico are
indignant over the class of transporta
tion offered. kilograms from Vera Cruz
and Tampioco Indicate that the only pas
sage the consuls are authorized to pro-
vide is "steerage or the lowest price
ticket available Some of the Ameri-
cans who proceeded to the seaports to
avail themselves of the proffered trans
portation home have refused to accept,
saying that they prefer to take their
chances in Mexico TO being herded in
the steerage."
Thus far no intimation has been re-
ceived by Consul General Shanklin that
any means of transportation ia being
provided except on such passenger and
merchant vessels as ordinarily ply along
the coasts for those leaving from gulf
ports. Consul Shanklin advised that
transport will leave San Francisco
the last of the week for ports along
the west coast as far as Salina Cruz
and it is expected that the round trip
will be made within a month.
The consul has already sent 81 refu-
gees to Manzanillo. He estimates that
between 400 and 500 have gone to the
gulf ports, of whom about half have
been provided with free transportation.
The consuls are authorized to send the
refugees to Galveston, New Orleans and
New York, providing for their sustenance
from the time of their sailing until ar
rival, and to give assurances that they
will be met by agents at their destina
tion who will provide them with means
to reach their homes.
There are said to be about a score OF
Americans bottled up in Durango. If
they succeeded in leaving they will
doubtless have hard journey westward
to the coast. Notification of Washing
tons warning has been sent to them
from two directions.
Refugees are arriving here from inte
rior points but in no great number. Prac
tically all Americans resident in this
who intend to avail them
selves of the transportation offer, are
believed to have already left for Vera
Cruz.
