Must Explain to Mediators
Breach of Agreement
with Them.
CAN'T STOP HUERTA
BLOCKADE EITHER
Promised 1t Would Not Object
TO Aggressive Action
Against Rebels.
rFrom The Tribune Bureau. J

Washington, June 4.--The admnistra-
ton is in an embarrassing position in re-
lation to the expectation OF arms to MeXi-
can ports and Il is certain that explana-
lions will have TO be made 10 the medi-
ators. as there has not yet appeared to
officials any adequate reason for violation
Of the agreement with them that during
mediation the shipment OF arms would
not be allowed
Huerta has proclaimed n blockade Of
.Tampico. and IT is said he will send
gunboats to the Panuco River to make
the blockade effective. 1t has been said
several times that the United States
would insist that Tampico be kept a free
and open port. and that II Huerta en-
deavored to establish a blockade he would
he prevented by the American navy.
This was the administration policy fort
night ago. II Huerta's gunboats go
northward from Puerto Mexico and es-
tablish the blockade. and II then the
United States interferes Huerta will have
a good case Of breach OF faith against
this government, for the United states
has agreed with IIuerta that there shall
be no aggressive action on either side
pending the mediation.
Huerta has been told that there is
nothing in his agreement with the United
States and the medators TO prevent his
fighting the Constitutionalists, although
he promised not to engage in aggressive
movements against American troops. The
establishment Of a blockade would be a
legitimate act Of war by Huerta against
his rebel enemies.
Acting on press reports. the Navy De-
partment told Admiral Badger to-day TO
send information as 70 the Whereabouts
Of the Mexican gunbOats. This after
noon he replied that the Bravo and the
Zaragoza were still at Puerto Mexico

ment to-day that the steamship RI Rio. OF

offered no resistance TO the court oin-
cials. She seemed more daZed than

train of her court dress tightly

handsome gown. Out in the first corri-

Immediately two gentlemen or the
court stepped forward, and it was seen
that a handsome young woman, az
tired in black, was on her knees, with
hands stretched toward the King. The
Off ials raised her. and without demur
on her part escorted her out. Neither

Those pleas are Significant said
Attorney Atchison today. They mean
that the defendants were afraid to

THE CITY OF VERA Cruz
Its Peculiar Construction Responsible
For Loss OF Life.

Washington, April 22.-Natural
features OF the city Of Vera Cruz and
the character of the buildings along
the water front there were largely
American blueujackets and marines
who landed there. This opinion was
expressed today by government OFF,
Gals who are familiar with the cap
tured city.
Between the bay and the line Of
two story buildings which face it is
a vacant space Of about three hundred
housetops. The custom house whfc n
can only be reached by crossing the
open space, stands In this solid group
Of buildings at the end OF one Of the
two long piers where the foreign mer-
chant ships land.
Like most OF the structures in the
southern countries. the fiat rooted
buildings with their high coping, form
vertitable fertilization from which
reflemen may pick of those below in
comparative safety, sheltered by the
high walls which surround the edge
tically solid, quite formidable troop
can be mustered on the top of a
square of buildings.
1t was from this protected position
that the Mexicans opened fire on the
bluejackets and marines
The remainder of the city, with its
brick and plaster houses and its
straight asphalted streets makes a
pretty picture. Trees are scarce, their
growth having been discouraged since
the yellow fever epidemics but the
particular avenue which stretches the
entire length of the town and out
into the suburbs is lined with cocoa
palms. The principal business street
as well is bordered by rows of palms
and almond trees.
Along the wharves the buildings are
not unprepossessing structures, uni
fOrmly brick twO-storied and fiat
rooted.
The scattered and disorganized re-
sistance on the part of the Mexicans
is in the opinion of the officials
proof Of the utterly helpless condition
of the Mexican troops.
The Mexican people as a whole
one of those officials declared were
not unfriendly to the United States
soldiers and the various demonstra-
lions which have occurred can be
traced directly to petty functionaries
! and police.
Many OF the inhabitants of Vera
Cruz unlike most Mexican cities carry
a strong faint of black blood and the
negro type is common among the
citizens. though the negro himself il
rare.
