Administration Backing Admiral
Mayo's Demand for Reparation
VIII Close Incident

Washington. April l2.-The Mex.
can Government has agreed TO the de
mand Of the United States that sa-
lutte to the Stars and Stripes shall
be fred as reparatlon for the insult
to this Government through the ac-
ton Of a Federal colonel at Tampico
in parading a pay master and squad
Of marines from the gunboat Dolphin
through the streets Of that city as
prisoners.
According 20 dispatches received
at the state Department today, ofIici
ais Of the Mexican Government and
Nelson OShaughnessy. the American
Charge, are now discussing the char
acter Of the salute and the extent TO
which the reparation shall 90.
The situation is complicated only
by the reluctance of the Mexican
Government TO accede to certain de-
tails of the apology demanded, but IL
is believed here that ten incident viii
be adjusted in accordance with the
terms laid down by Rear Admiral
Mayo. commanding the naval forces
at Tampico.
However mild the course of the Ad-
ministration in previous incidents in
Mexico, involving alleged sights TO
American citizens, this Government
may have been, there seems no doubt
that in the present instance il is
maintaining a stiff backbone that
shows no signs Of unbending, and
that it is supporting to the utmost
Admiral Mayo's demands. While the
terms of the apology and reparation
have not been fully determined, IL is
known that they will include a for
nal salute to the United States flag
at Tampico.
1t was said tonight by officials
that when President Wilson reached
Washington tomorrow. Secretary Bry
an would probably be able to assure
the Chief Executive that his insis
tence on compliance with Admiral
Mayo's demand had been met TO the
fullest extent by the action of the
Mexican Government No time limit
has been fixed by this Government
for compliance with the terms of Ad
miral Mayos demand, but it is be
Iieved that the incident Will be dis
posed of within day or two.
Mr. O'Shaughnessy has informed
the State Department that owing to
the Eastern holiday it was difficult to
expedite a settlement of the affair,
consequently, the Administration is
disposed to grant a slight extension
of time for the conclusion of the ne
gotiations in Mexico City
Officials were anxious tonight 10

ment had not delivered any ultima.

They asserted that the dispatches, re.

existed in the relations between the

erment of the United States and
that the negotiations over the Tampi
co incident were progressing satisfac
torily.
