Demonstration of Hostility.

Mexico City, July 12.-American
Ambassador Wilson has protested to
the minister of foreign affairs
against further anti-American dem
onstrations, but late today no an
swer has been received and students
are planning a demonstration tomor-
row, as they will not be troubled by
the authorities.
In note to the Mexican govern
ment Ambassador Wilson deplored
the fact that the youth of the caui-
tai were to be permitted. to engage
in violence to American residents in
Mexico. He indicated the danger of
allowing persons to use the students
as tools and reminded the Mexican
government that if any Americans
were injured he would use all the
power at the embassy's command to
secure reparation.
Alarmed at the development of
hostile feeling displayed by the press,
the number of Americans leaving for
Vera Cruz was greatly augmented to-
day. The ambassador is sending fire.
