New Hampshire Has Gone
to Vera Cruz.

WASHINGTON Nov. 22.-Rear Ad-
miral Fletcher cabled today that the
battleship New Hampshire had left
Tuxpan to return to Vera Cruz. TAX
en- in connection with the pledge from
the Constitutionalist general, Aguilar,
that his men would not molest for
eign property, the movement was re-
garded as evidence of the restoration
of order between TuXpan and Tam
pico.
The Madero refugees were trans
ferred late last night to the scout
cruiser Chester from the battleship
Rhode Island, and the Chester sailed
for Havana.
With the full realization that there
probably can be immediate develop
ments in diplomatic sense pending
a clearing of the tangle in which the
Mexican Congress has involved it
self, interest is now centred in the
naval situation on the gulf coast.

sions of disapproval, and that is taken
as another evidence that the United
States and Great Britain are acting
in perfect harmony as to naval forces
to protect foreign interests.
1t Is pointed out In naval circles
that with German and French war
ships in the same waters there could

So far, however, the local Constitu-

unwilling to admit that General Car
rama would be satisfied with any
thing less than a conquest of the
whole of Mexico and the elimination
of General Huerta.
bryan Issues Statement.
Secretary Bryan issued this state
ment relative to Mexico City dis
matches about the movement of Brit
ish warships to Mexico:
1.-THE statement published this morn
ing to the effect that the state de-
partment protested against the action
of Great Britain in sending war ves-

the publication of statements of that
kind without taking time to inquire
into their truth or falsity. A denial
cannot reach all who read the state
ment, nor can 1t prevent the discus

predicated on the false statement.
Surely in international affairs there
ought to be patriotic desire to pro-

cannot be promoted by the reckless
publication of false statements in re-

their front pages today long articles

Ell Diario similarly displayed an
item stating that Secretary of State
