day and were sent to the senate for ac-
ton there. Opposition melted away

speech making. being completed late In
the afternoon When the trade commits

final vote, Progressive Leader Murdock

jected, 151 to 10. and the pending bill
was passed without roll CALL Then
the votes on the other two measures
were taken in rapid succession.

Washington. June 6.-Secretary Dan
forth to Rear Admirals Badger or Mayo
as to the landing Of the war cargo OF
the steamer Antilla for the constitu-
tionalists at Tampico.
Secretary Bryan declared the situa-
ton at Tampico was unchanged today.
You notice." the secretary cautioned
his questioners, that l am careful to
speak Of the present day.
Mr.. Bryan declined to be questioned
further.
SO far as can be learned Tampico
still 10 an open port.
The information reached Washing
ton last night that the American
schooner Sunshine, from Galveston. had
landed ammunition at Tampico for the
Mexican constitutionalists without in
terference on the part of the United
States or the Huerta government. 1t
was received in official quarters with
out comment.
The presence Of the Sunshine of
Tampico with arms aboard for the con-
stitutionalists had been known to the
Washington government several days.
In view Of the fact that there had
been apprehension regarding the atti-
tude the United States might take to-
ward the landing Of ammunition at that
Mexican port, the actual delivery Of
munitions Of war for the enemies of the
Huerta government without interfer-
ence was regarded with Significance.
U. 8. 70 Bar Blockade.
With the Cuban steamer Antilla en-
route from New York to Tampico with
arms consigned to Carranza's forces
there had been speculation as to wha.
the United States would do II the
Huerta government should attempt to
blockade Tampico.
Every indication. however. was that
the United States would maiptsin stts
position that Tampico was an open
port.
Admiral Badger was stiu keeping
watch on the Huerta gunboats at Puer-.
to Mexico and Alvarado. II these gun
boats manifest any signs of moving to-
ward Tampico Admiral Badger will re-.
port at once to Washington.
Mediators Mako No Protest.
There had been reports that the me-
diators had protested against the
United States permitting the delivery
OF ammunition to the constitutionalists
at Tampico.
Secretary Bryan declared. however.
that the state department had received
no protest from the mediators. He also
denied that Mr.. Riano. Spanish am
bassador, who represents General
Huerta in the United States. had pro-
tested against delivery OF munitions to
the constitutionalists.
