URRUTIA UNDER
 SURVEILLANCE
ARMY OFFICERS OF HUERTA WATCH EVERY MOVE OF THE
 FORMER MINISTER.
A Party of Thirty Americans Trying to Reach the Honduras Border Are
 Reported to Be Lost In the JungIes.

Vera Cruz, May 20.-Marines as- signed to protect Dr. Aureliano Ur- rutia, former minister of the interior of Huerta's cabinet, are keeping care ful watch to prevent a recurrence of demonstrations against him by Mexi- cans. The entire district about the hotel where Urrutia and his family are staying is under surveillance.
 American officers today noted two groups of Mexicans seated in cafes in position to command view of all sides of the block in which the hotel is located Vera Cruz Mexicans in formed the officers that these men were federal army officers and sol ders in plain clothes. Extra precau tions were taken to keep them under watch because no charge warranting their detention could be brought.
 Some MeNcans think that the pres ence of these federals and other Mex ican army officers in the streets of the city indicate a determination to cause Urrutia as much trouble as possible if they cannot prevent his departure from the country. The eX. minister and his family remained se- cluded in their rooms Otday. All meals are being served in their rooms and marines patrol the cor ridor. %
 Mail service with the capital and interior points will be re-established if plans which it is reported are being considered by the Mexican gov ernment can be carried to comple- tion Huerta's minister of communi- cations has announced that the gov ernment probably will empower the postoffice at Cordoba to accept from the Americans mail for Mexi- can points and deliver in exchange outgoing mail for transmission.
 An attempt is being made to re establish telegraphic communication between Vera Cruz and Tampico over the wires along the coast through TuXpam. This would relieve the wireless of the burden of consular business and less important official dispatches.
 Refugees from southern ports have been transferred from the steamer City of Tampico to the Molterey and the former vessel has been ra leased from it's contract with the gov ernment and restored to its regular service. Most of the passengers will go to the United States on the Mon terey, which is waiting the. arrival oi another contingent of refugees, who were expected to leave Mexico City tonight for Puerto Mexico.
 Some of the refugees brought a story that party of thirty Amfl' cans had left Merida to proceed over land to Honduras and had lost their way in the jungle. Their account was vague and is given little cred ence, but British Honduras authori ties have been requested to investi gate the rumor and extend aid to the Amricans if true.
 Reports from Yucatan indicate anti-Huerta sentiment there. The ar rival of Huerta's gunboats along the Yucatan coast, it is said might pre- eipitate disorder as their presence will be resented by the inhabitants

Niagara Falls, Ontario May 20 Stimulus was given today 10 the re port that by self-elimination General Huerta would make it possible for the mediation conference here 10 bring about peace for Mexico. It was announced in a dispatch re- ceived from Mexico City by the Asso- ciated Press that the provisional president had authorized his repre- sentatiyes to present his resignation if such step became necessary to adjustment of the trouble with the United States.
 Later, however, it was stated that there had been an error of transmits sion and that General Huerta had said that his delegates have no in structions to offer his resignation.
 Undoubtedly there was an error in the transmission of the first dis patch, but before the correction came the report that Huerta was ready to efface himself was circuated gen erally and it occasiOned no surprise anywhere
 The enyoys of Brazil and Argos tina who, with the Chilean minister constitute the mediation tribunal, ap- parently were ready to accept the re- port as accurately setting forth Iluertas position, and the Mexican delegates themselves evinced the keenest interest when inQuiring if the dispatch was authenticated. One of the delegates said he had not eX- pected an announcement "so soon.'
 In spite of the withdrawal of the dispatch by the Associated Press the feeling was that the reported an nouncement 'was merely premature,' which phrase was taken from the eX- pression of the diplomats here when he was informed of the correction. Confidence in the amicable settle ment not only of differences between the United States and Mexico, but ill the ultimate pacificataion of Mexico through the avenues of diplomacy was reflected tonight after the first formal session of the three South American mediators and representa- tiyes of the Huerta government and the United States.
 Notwithstanding the fact that con i firmation could not De given to ear fer reports that General Huerta would not allow his incumbency of | the office of president to stand in the way of a solution of the Mexican problem the first days session ds- yeloped feeling of optimism.
 Before the correction of the origi- nal Huerta dispatch was received diplomatas and delegates commented on the dispatch on the theory that it was correct. Those who expressed themselves generally agreed that the voluntary retirement of Huerta would be conditioned upon the making of satisfactory terms concerning sue cessor.
 It is clear that if an announcement ofwillingness to retire comes from Huerta in the near future it will be welcomed as making more remote the possibility of any resumption of hostilities between the United States and Mexico.
 It was argued also that with | Huerta out, the mediators might en- certain hop ethat Carranza and his
