Huerta Curious

Huerta Curious
Mexico City, November 1S.-By Presi-
dent Huertas friends, the attitude of the
executive is described as one of eX-
pectancy and curiosity as to prospective
action by the United States, rather than
one of anxiety. They say he has given
no indication of changing his mind about
not resigning and is proceeding with the
affairs of the government with all
equanimity.
They add that he regards as probable
intervention by the United States and an
order was sent today to the state gov
ernors to report Immediately how many
soldiers they can have ready by Novem-
ber 20. The official explanation of this
is that it is merely part of the plan an
nounced in a recent decree increasing
the army to 10000 men.
The departure of Americans from Mex
leo continues, although in decreasing
numbers, which indicates that the great
majority of those intending to leave al
ready have gone. A train for Vera Cruz
with scores of refugees aboard was held
up tonight in the freight yards by the
burning of several oil tank cars.
Invitations to the opening of Mexican
Congress have been sent to the diplomatic
corps. The American charge d'affaires,
Nelson o. 'Shaughnessy, dined tonight with
Sir Lionel Garden at the first official
dinner given by the British minister.
No Instructions Received
No instructions from Washington have
been received at the embassy, according
to the charge who is reporting daily to
the state department on political condi-
tions here.
Fearing that blockade may be estab-
lished co-incident with the installation of
Congress on Thursday, the officials at the
national palace are showing anxiety re-
garding the shipment of 1000 rifles due
at Vera Cruz tomorrow.
The recruiting campaign by conscription
is being carried on vigorously and there
is little doubt that the number of men
now ready for service is greater than
the supply of rifles. Failure to land this
shipment would be embarrassing to the
war department.
The committees of the new Congress
had under consideration for several hours
today the credentials of the new men,
bers. President Huerta is said to be pre-
pairing his message for delivery on Thurs
day.
There was a noticeable relaxation from
the tension of the past few days. owing
to the cessation of the rumors that the
embassy was about to leave and indica-
tions that no immediate action was in
tended at Vera Cruz.

Fail to Agree

Another conference and another failure to
agree on points at issue were registered
today in the diplomatic negotiations be-
tween President Wilson's envoy, William
Bayard Hale, and Francisco Escudero,
constitutionalists minister of foreign re-
lations who represent General Vesus-
