WASHINGTON, April 49,
Because President Huerta
Of Mexico tried to 'force rec.
ognition' Of his government
by the United Statees, all ne
gotiations demanding the ma
fonal salute to wipe out, the
1sznpico affair, were broken
of tonight.
In an official statement is
sued from the white house just
before midnight the blame was
placed directly at Huerta S
door.
It is also stated that the
president will tomorrow take
the entire matter up with con
gress for definite decision on
his future action.
The official statement shows
that the United States refused
to permit any dictation by HUI
erta and that he latter there
upon rejected the United
States demands for a national
salute.

The note states in substance
that the government of Mexico

the Mexican government is
disposed to act according to

"The copy Of the United
States ultimatum sent by Bry-
an to Charge O'shaughressy
yesterday also was made pub
lie. It was as follows:
Say to General Huerta In
reply to yours of April ~,
that the president of the Unit
ed States feels disappointment
at his failure to make prompt
and willing reparation for the
insult which was offered our
sailors at Tampico, the offense
being still further aggravated
by subsequent arrests of a mail
carrier of the United States at
Vera Cruz. In the belief that
General Huerta would on con-
sideration ,accede to the most
reasonable demand of Admiral
Mayo, time has been given
him. From your telegram it
would seem that this govern
forebearance has been
misinterpreted, under all the
circumstances, for a simulta-
neous salute is as unjustifiable
as is the arrest of American
sailors and this makes it i'm
possible for this government
to consider further delay.
. You are instructed to in
form General Huerta that un.,
less he announces his intention
to comply with Admiral
Mayo's demand by 6 o'clock
Sunday, April 19, the presi-
dent will lay the matter before
congress on Monday with a
view to taking such action to
enforce the respect due our
nations flag as may be neces-
sary. General Huerta can ar
range details of salutes with
Admiral Mayo if he reconsid-
ers the position taken by him.
Should he adhere to the posi-
tion he has taken, you will
make the contents of this tele- !
gram known to the representa- |
lives of foreign governments
and send a paraphrase of the
telegram to all consulates of
America, stationed in Mexico,
so that it may be communicat-
ed to American citizens who
should at the same time be re-
minded of the presidents ad-
vice to withdraw from Mexico !
until order is restored. You are
to inform us as to
General Huerta s attitude and |
as promptly as pos
sible. "

duty. The signing of TO-
tocol would be Objectionable,
in addition to other reasons be-
cause of the fact that it might
be construed as recognition Of
the Huerta government where
as the president has no inten-
ton Of recognizing that gov
ernment. !"
early this morning a dis
patch was received from
Charge O'shaughnessy saying
that President Huerta was
willing to accede to the de-
mand of Admiral Mayo, pro-
viding that a protocol was
signed and setting forth copy
of the proposed protocol.
Charge O'Shaughnessy asked
whether he was authorized to
sign it. I communicated with
President Wilson by telephone
and at his direction sent a tele-
gram to o'shaughnessy Of
which the following is a para
phrase:
Copy of your telegram Of
8 p. m. last night was sent to
the president with copy of my
reply to the effect the protocol
would be Objectionable. The
president replied: Your reply
to O'Shaughnessy is exactly
what I would have wished it to
be. In no case should any con-
cession of any kind in detail or
otherwise be made
"'I talked with the presi-
dent over the telephone when
your telegram of II p. m. last
night was received, to the ef-
feet that General Huerta had
acceded to the demand but
only on condition that you sign
the protocol. He repeated
most emphatically his objec-
tion to any protocol, or agree
ment. He insists that the sa-
lutte shall not be fred as a mat
ter of contract or with any
stipulation that it be returned
by us. It must be fired in an
swer to international custom
as an apology for the insult Of
fered. General Huerta must
trust that the United States
will live up to the require
ments of international cour-
tesy in returning his salute
when it shall have been fired.
The proposed protocol is espe-
cially Objectionable, for it is so
phrased that General Huerta
might construe it as recogniz-
ing his government, whereas
the president has informed
General Huerta and the for
eign governments that General
Huerta's government will not
be recognized. General Huer-
ta's acceptance Of the demand
Of Admiral Mayo must be un-
conditional. The details can
be arranged directly with Ad-
miral Mayo after General HUI
erta announces that he will
comply with that demand.
Make it clear with General HUI
erta that further negotiations
are unnecessary. It is expect
ed that he accept at once in or
