VINO nave announced their intention Of
| departing AS reported by American
consular officers in all parts of Mexico.
II is estimated that when the exodus
Is over not more than 300 or 5000
Americans will be left in the entire
/ country This means that during the
next fortnight or so about 1909 Ameri-
/ cans will flee.
PIans are now being made for send
ing the United States army transport

/ west coast of Mexico 10 pick UP refu-
gees. The Buford will go to one Of the

| Il has been discovered that in the
wilds of the southern part of the State
of Sonora, within the district where the
/ Yaqui Indians are threatening an up
! rising, there are twenty-five Ameri-
/ cans. including some women and chill
/ dren, who have not been informed of
/ the Presidents message and his desire
| that all Americans get out of the

/ Will be ordered from Guaymas on the
/ Gulf of California, to the mouth Of the

Huerta's financial condition is q mat
| ter Of much interest. Several weeks
| ago he made an arrangement with
| French syndicate for a loan Of loD.-
600 600 pesos, and it is reported here
that he is getting some Of the pro-
! ceeds. About ten days ago he received
5000, 900 pesos. Some OF this had TO go
toward the payment Of interest on old
! loans and the redemption Of bonds but
a good part Of il was available for mill
tary and administrative purposes.
1t begins 10 look TO officials here as if
Huerta were going 10 get enough
money TO drag along for considerable
period. 1t seems pretty certain that he
is no worse of financially than MS rev.
| dictionary opponents. His representa-
tives here point TO the fact that not
yet has the Mexican government failed
10 meet its financial obligations. and il
is stated with confidence that that time
Will never come.
II is asserted here that the Mexican
government deficit runs only 5000
600 pesos a month. Other estimates
however, based on official information,
indicate that the deficit is about twice
that sum. If not considerably more.
