Huerta About TO Quit.

Vera Cruz, June 9.-Following the
official announcement that President
Huerta has rescinded his order for the
blockade of Tampico the anti-Huerta
newspapers of Vera Cruz came out
with flaming headlines declaring that
he is about to resign.
Refugees from Mexico City say
further that his resignation has been
in the hands OF Sir Lionel Garden,
the British minister, since last Friday
and that the minister is holding 1t as
a guaranty that the agreements Of the
Mexican mediators at Niagara Falls
will be carried out.
The official notification to Admiral
Badger about the lifting OF the block
ade amazed the Vera Cruzans. who
looked to see Huerta use the incident
to compel American Intervention and
thus defeat all the immediate pur-
poses OF the rebels.
II Is the opinion here without of
fcial confirmation that Huerta has
taken this action at the request OF the
Mexican mediators at Niagara Falls
and perhaps on the advice of the for.
eign diplomats at Mexico City.
General Funston has determined to
check the smuggling of arms and am
munition into Vera Cruz. squad of
soldiers made raid on two business
houses, where 200 revolvers and some
ammunition were found. All this they
promptly conflssated while the pro-
prietors were put under arrest. Mex
leans who are satisfied with the pres.
ent administration told the officers.

SHAMROCK TO SAIL ACROSS
Sir Thomas Upton Doesn't Want ANY
FsVors Shown Him.

London, Juno 9.-Either extreme
confidence or some soreness" was
undoubtedly responsible for the an
nouncement which Sir Thomas Upton
made here. The Irish sportsman said:
II propose TO sail Shamrock ~. TO
New York. l do not propose to ask
the New York Yacht club for any
further favors; that is, l will not re-
quest the privilege OF towing the
Shamrock. l will sail tho challenger
across. If she sinks we'll and good.
but If she wins she will win without
any concessions and the American
public will grant me tho honor Of
having won without any sympathetic
violation Of deed or gift or through
any favors."
Sir Thomas is as optimistic as usual
and believes that he has with the new
boat tho best chance he ever had OF
winning the cup. The Shamrock. ac-
cording TO present Intentions. will sail
for the United States on July 10.

Think Huerta Is rotterino

Washington, June 9.--Huerta's with.
drawal of his order to blockade Tam.
pico is interpreted here as an ac.
knowledgement that he is tottering
and has finally reached the point
where he must make humillating CON
cessions In an effort to save himself
and his government from the Consti-
tutionalists.
Washington officials believe now
that Huerta's sole hope lies in media.
ton and that he is willing to go to
almost any extreme to bring about
settlement of the Mexican situation.
His reversal on the blockade aues-
tions quickly turned what was n very
gloomy outlook into one OF consider.
able brightness.
Second Lieutenant Samuel III. Hous.
ton, descendant OF "Sam" Houston
of military fame, shot and killed a
drunken Mexican at Vera Cruz who
was engaged In knife fight with the
Mexican police. General Funston com.
pletely exonerated the officer.

cellar and dug down where the strange
vision had showed him the hidden
gold
The dream persisted for several

Huerta Took Hint.

Mexico City, June 0.-Minister Of
War Blanquet formally announced
that the order for the blockading OF
Tampico has been countermanded.
Notification to that effect has been
sent to tho Mexican warships now
proceeding to that point.
Without saying so officially II was
inffrH2!sd that President Huerta was
guided in his action by word received
from Niagara Falls. They first cabled
that II would end the A. B. G. media
tion plans and later came the cable
dispatch from the Spanish minister at
Washington that the United States
would not permit the blockade.
