Mexican Developments.

Sir Lionel Garden again advised
British subjects to leave Mexico
City. There are about 500 Ameri-
cans remaining.
With the departure from Mexico
City of Huerta's representatives,
the mediators' gathereing at
Niagara Falls May Is Is assured.
Military energy was again de-
voted to making ready for sending
reinforcements to Vera Cruz. In
the absence of any warlike de-
velopments, it was apparent that
efforts are being made to keep
down military excitement so that
nothing will happen to embarrass
the mediators.
Private Parks, the American
soldier who disappeared with two
horses, is said to be within the
Mexican lines. Parks is called
apparently insane" in an official
report.
Secretary Bryan announced that
the complication over shipment Of
arms to Huerta had been settled.
Nothing was landed from the
Kronprinzessin Cecilie at Puerto
Mexico.
Three newspaper correspondents
and photographer named Sutton,
of Washington, were arrested in
Mexico City and taken to jail.
They were released after protest.
Washington, D. C.-The opening Of
the Mexican mediation conference at
Niagara Falls on the scheduled date,
May 10, was assured when word was
received of the departure of the Mexi-
can delegates from Mexico City for the
conference.
Preparations are being made for
dispatching reinforcements to General
Funston at Vera Cruz should such a
movement become necessary, work on
II transports to carry troops, horses
and supplies is being pushed, and the
military apparently is being kept well
in leash to avoid embarrassing the
mediation negotiations.
A threatening cloud disappeared
from the diplomatic horizon when
the German steamer Kronprinzessin
Cecilie, reported to be carrying arms
and ammunition for Huerta, returned
to Vera Cruz without debarking hel
was stores at Puerto Mexico, and II
was announced that the munitions or
this and second German steamer, the
Bavaria, would be returned to Ger
many. The possibility either of q
seizure of Blockade of Puerto Mexico
or of an act perhaps interpretable as 9
violation of the military status quo in
favor of Huerta thereby was eli
minated.

May Is.
Huerta, as far as was known, had
expressed no dissatisfaction with the
reply Of the United States to his pro-
test and the actual departure of the
delegates was taken as an earnest OF
his serious intention to proceed with
mediation. His delegates are expected
to come to Washington from Key
West or Galveston. They, of course,
will have safe conduct through the
American lines at Vera Cruz.
