Noqaies, Ark, Nov. 5.-officers
commanding the United States
troops on border patrol here re-
ceived orders today to prepare
equipment for field service. Rail-
road officials at division head
quarters at Tucson also received
requests for immediate statements
regarding the facilities they could
furnish for movement Of troops.
Paris, Nov. 5.-The French foreign
office was asked informally today by
the Mexican foreign Office II 1t was
disposed to mediate between the
United States and Mexico.
The French government has taken
the attitude that it will do nothing un-
til further advised as to the policy OF
the United States toward Mexico and
then nothing which might be unwel-
come to the United States.
Unwilling To Make Comment.
Washington. D. c.. Nov. 5.-State
department officials take the position
that the action of the French foreign
office In r. training from indicating
whether il is disposed to mediate be-
tween Mexico and the United States
Is another evidence of the intention
Of France to defer to the policy OF the
United States In the Mexican situa-
ton.
Secretary Bryan said Of the Paris
dispatch:
s..'In the absence of ofhcial adyices
from the French foreign ONCE ] am
unwilling to make any comment
France was among the. first of the
European governments to accede ia
the request Of the United States ia
defer action in the Mexican situation
until the Washington government had
formulated and announced its policy.
Mr.. Bryan fatty refused to discuss
the Mexican situation in any of it's
phases today. The secretary of state
was asked particularly about one pub
lished report that General Huerta had
made reply to recent communica-
ytion from the United States and he
refused to confirm or deny 1t.
No Move Made Vet.
The French ambassador here, M.
Jusserand, has received no In
structions from his government TO
take any steps toward mediation be-
tween the United States and Mexico,
though the embassy would be the
natural channel for such steps.
II the French government were to
decide to use Its good offices at this
stage, the usual procedure would be
for Ambassador Jusserand to sound
Secretary Bryan to learn first
whether such overtures would be
favorably received.
The inflexible determination of
President Wilson to accomplish the
retirement of Huerta has been made
known to the powers well enough to
assure that any proposal of mediation
doubtless will be based on that under
standing and would be shaped toward
com posing the situation in way that
Huerta himself might be disposed to
accept. Some officials feel that other
steps may be developed before a
tangible move might be made toward
Wants Only Arms.
Nogales, Sonora, Nov. 5-At the re-
quest of General Ventstiano Car
rama, the constitutionalist chief, DR..
Henry Allen Tupper OF the information
cl peace forum telegraphed Secretary
Of State Bryan today as follows:
"Carranza makes only this request
that our government permit the free
into Mexico of arms and
equipment He gives positive assur-
ance. under these circumstances, Of
speedy peace and stable constitutional
and he deplores interven-
ton as a grave and disastrous mis-
take"
