vessel of big consignment of arms and ammunition for the Huerta government. Secretary Bryan conferred with the Ger man ambassador. Count Non Beinstorfr. and it is believed the influence of tht German government will be interposed to prevent the consignment from landing elsewhere in Mexico and complicattns the situation. The ship carries 15.o0a.o .o01 rounds of ammunition and POO rapid fire guns and thousands of rifles.
 The President conferred with the Sec fetaries of War. State and Navy early to- night. No army orders were issued. but Rear Admiral Badger was ordered to iampico, where another customs mousse may be seized The President intends 10 act slowly to force Huerta to vieli and hopes 10 avert war With the takiug of the railroad for a few miles inland from Vera Cruz and the two customs houses, 1t is believed no other aggressive steps will be taken. Many officials ad- mt that offensive action by Huerta may draw the American forces into con- flict tantamount 10 war. All prepara- tions possible have been made by the army and navy, but no orders have gone put to state militia, nor has the naval militia been called upon.
 Joint plans of the army and navy were worked over at the departments during the night and the wireless. the cable and the telegraph carried scores of govern ment orders over land and sea, making preparations for aA eventualities.
 The national capital was thrilled with excitement. Crowds thronged the Sen ate and listened to the debate News paper bulletins were eagerly read by thousands, as were the frequent extra editions. In executive quarters clerks and officers of the army and navy were busily at work all night. Cabinet mem- bers were at their desks after midnig Int and the whole executive machinery of the government was adjusted to the Mexican crisis.
 No dispatches were received so far as known tonight from Charge O'Shaugh- messy.
 The fighting at Vera Cruz had raised much speculation in some quarters as to the possibility of anti-American upris- ings in the Mexican capital.

Firing in Progress

Washington, April 2.-Rear Admiral Fletcher reported to the navy depart ment from Vera Cruz under date of 10 D. m., that firing still was in progress. There was no mention of further casual ties.
 The report said:
 Shipping continues from nearby houses. No additional casualties Admiral Fletcher announced his inten- tion of holding the customs house. consulate and cable offices tonight. Ap- parently he has made no effort to clear the town of Mexican soldery or to take possession Of more territory than already has been occupied.

said, "as to the details of further amends, the customary and usual incidents sur rounding such salute.
 This was the matter in dispute be- tween this government and the de facto government of Mexico, and this is the justification upon which the resolution now before the Senate is based.
 Painfully Inadequate
 This Justification. 1t seems to me, is painfully inadequate. If this is all that there is between the government and the poor, harried people of Mexico, it is pain fully inadequate. But is this all?
 We learn tonight that Vera Cruz has fallen. that four American marines lie dead that 2i lie suffering from wounds. Is there nothing else but this dispute of the number of guns-the form and cere- mony of salute-to justify the sacrifice of the American lives?
 Deeply as the President desires to Him. it the scope of his action--the nIainte- nance of peace-ail history suggests that once lighted the fires of war cannot be quenched at will. It IS war in it's es- sence that we are to vote to justify to- night. What the result of these incl dents no man can tell. Men will die-rnen dear to us will die-eecause of the c. tion we are to take tonight. America n homes will be desolate. American child. -en go through life fatherless because of the action We will take tonight and when they turn back the page to find why their fathers died, are they to find that 1t was about the number of guns or the form of salute?
 We are to justify. what is the justi- flcation? Is there none but that? We. the of the great democracy that brides Itself before the world that dcmocracies can be peaceful and just Is there no Justification that we can lay be- fore the world before tite Judgment seat of history, except osspute about the number of guns"'
