American Protests.

Mexico City, Nov. lS.-Presfdent
Huerta, after completing the organiza'

the wishes of the United States, told
members of his staff he is ready to

Opinions prevail in various circles
here that President Wilson will order
blocdade of Mexican ports in the
near future. Rumor has it. that he
would be content with such action.
Charge O'Shaughnessy denied he
had been recalled. Persistent rumors
to this effect were current here, but
the charge appeared unconcerned.
Enough senators we're gathered te
form quorum in the upper house OF
congress. General Francisco Pronces
was chosen temporary chairman OF

A similar committee Of the chamber

is nothing to indicate the formal open.

postponed.

Hintze, summoned the heads of I'M
