INSISTS UPON SALUTE

Washington. April l5.-All the ships
Of the Atlantic fleet at Hampton
Roads have been ordered to Tampico.
The transport Hancock, with 800
marines. has been ordered from New
Orleans to Tampico at once.
The battleship South Carolina. en-
route from San Domingo, has been
intercepted by wireless and ordered
to Tampico.
The torpedo flotilla at Pensacola,
Fla, has been notified to be ready
to join the battleships at Tampico on
short notice.
The cabinet had discussed the sit.
uation in two-hour meeting and
the consensus of opinion was that the
Washington government should insist
on a salute. After the meeting Secre.
tary Daniels hurried to the navy de-
partment, where he prepared q memo

President Wilson conferred with
Secretary Tumulty and reports were

President Receives Many Messages
From Northwest,

Washington. April 15.-Telegrams
from several hundred citizens of
Minnesota and other parts Of the
Northwest approving the presidents
position on repeal of Panama canal
tolls exemption were made public at
the White House. The messages
came from st. Paul. Minneapolis.
Duluth. St Cloud, Mankato. Albert
Lea. Fargo and from travelling men
who cover that territory and Mon.
tana.
Practically all the kilograms favor
the repeal on the ground that the
nations honor is at stake: that our
treaty with Great Britain is violated
by allowing free tolls through the
canal to vessels in the American
coastwise trade. and express the hope
that Senators Nelson and Clapp will
stand by the president when the vote
is taken on the Sims bill.

ence With Bryan and Lind.
Washington. April 15.-President
Wilson. comforting with John Lind,
Secretary Bryan and members of the
cabinet. decided to demand from Mex
leo formal apology for the arrest OF
American sailors at Tampico Friday.
Mr.. Lind. personal envoy to the
president in Mexico. advised the en-
ecutive that the salute ordered by
Rear Admiral Mayo should be in
sisted upon. The president, 1t is said.
inclines to Mr. Iind's view.
Bombardment of Tampico, the fed
eral stronghold. If ordered by the
United States government. will not be
begun at once. Further investigation
of the Tampico incident will be made
before any hostilities can be started.
This may require two or three days.
All Off cials were silent on q situa-
tion admittedly tense one. They let
1t be known. however, that the delay
cid not indicate a disposition to
change President Wilson's attitude.
but to afford opportunity to investi-
gate fully Huerta's statement of the
affair.
Attitude ls Unchanged.
Reports from Vera Cruz. quoting
General Mas, the federal commander
as contending that ample satisfaction
had been given in the verbal apology
by Huerta and that the salute was un-
necessary, was received with some
surprise here. but 80 far as could be
learned 1t had no effect on the de-
termination of President Wilson that
the salute should be fired.
1t is understood that Huerta, while
regretting that the marines should
have been arrested, has pointed out
that under international law the Mexi-
can commander acted within his
rights.
The Washington government is
seeking to learn whether the marines
were armed or whether they commit
ted some overt act which might have
caused their arrest.
The entire situation was discussed
1t length at the cabinet meeting, but
the general impression prevailed that
until more Information was received
from Rear Admiral Mayo there would
be no further steps by the Washing.
ton government. Immediate action in
the interval being left to the discre.
ton Of the admiral.
At the navy department ofiicial,
were in communication with Admiral
Mayo. That there was mo news
was the terse and only announcement
there. This was generally accepted a
meaning that the salute had not been
fred.
