WASHINGTON. Feb. i0.--As pre-
interests of safety of Americans and
other foreigners In Mexico, Secretary

ships to Mexican ports, two on each
coast.

No Change of Policy.
Secretary knn1, in an authorized
statement tonight. says:
THE sole purpose of these naval
dispositions, is observation ard report
upon the situation. particularly with
reference TO the protection being At
forded foreigners and their interests.
The sending Of these vessels represent
no change whatever in the policy of
the president aud Indicates no bias
ON the part Of the government of the
United States as to which side shall
gain the ascend1ncy."
Secretary Knox decided 10 send
a, r,
fact that the department Is still
without official advices from Amhas-
sador Wilson. as To the situation in
Mexico City.
Messages have been received from
other parts of Mexico which indicate
that the Diaz coup d'etat in the
capital had no counterpart in the
other cities Of the republic.
TO Protect Foreigners.
Only three dispatches III all have
reached the state department from
Am ssador. Wilson since the events
OF yesterday began. They contained
little that was not in the press dis
patches In morning papers today.
Ambassador wilson's dispatches did
show, however. that he has taken
steps to insure the protection of
American life and property in Mexico
City.
festerday afternoon meeting oil
the entire diplomatic corps was held
at the American embassy, Amhassa-
dor Wilson presiding as the dean OF
the corps AS a result of this con-
ference Ambassador Wilson called on
the Madero government for protection
OF the foreign quarter, and OF the
life. and OF property of foreigners
generally throughout the city. AS
surances were given, the ambassador
reported. that adequate protection
would he afforded. Also al the in
stance of the diplomatic conference
the ambassador informally called
upon General Felix Diaz. for protee-
ton for foreign life and property in
whatever portions of the city he was
then controlling. or might in the i'm
mediate future control.

Chairman Whfttet, of the admin

Gil for $i,S50.S70.95.
He didn't want this for himself. but
it covers the wants Of the various
departments over which the admins
trative board has control-including

teries, markets, grounds and build
ings, streets. city engineer and other
smaller sections of the city govern

In a lump sum this figure looks big,
but wien it is analysed and the de-
tails worked out, ii will not appear SO
large, for 1t covers four of the great
departments of the government-gas
water. street cleaning and city engi-
neers.
In addition to this. the finance com
mittee will be called upon to pass
