bassador Jusserand announced here
today that the French legation IN
Mexico City informed him by tele7
graph that all Americans in the Mex

declared that there had been anti
American demonstrations, but that
they were not serious and that the
city was quiet.
Consul Hostetter's reply, dated yes
terday from Hermosillo, state Of Son
ora, given. out at the White House,
was as follows
About 150 people are leaving this
evening and some tomorrow. Those
from sinaloa will most likely wait
for boats. Quiet a number are not
going to leave, as they are guaranteed
every safety here and Colonel Gales
has issued the strictest orders to ar
rest any one insulting an American
and has notified his people all over
the state that any demonstration
would be punished in the seyerest
manner and that seditious speech
es would most likely lead to hanging.
Generals Obregon and Alvara are
in control and / am assured Ameri-
cans will have every consideration at
their hands and if unable to pay
passage they would advance them
tickets and money Only Whe best Of
feeling is shown BY the constitutions
aiists and tneiI 6ficefs. and aIi sin
Icerely hope and pray everything will
be settled amicably very soon.
IF can finish. may leave tomor-
how; if not, by Wednesdays train.
Am waiting for some people from the
mountains Colonel Gales has issued
strict orders that all properties Of
people leaving would be protected and
to see that not stick of wood should
be missing when these people return
Most Americans who are leaving
ask me to notify the department that
they leave with the greatest of regret,
as they have always been treated well
like the people here very much,
