New York. May 9.-The latest at
tempt to readjust the finances of the
Gould railroad system came to naught

their refusal to extend the SIS, 900. 600

80. Washington h d G, May 9-striking developments in the MeSi
can situation, pointing toward war have been numerous the last "a
hours. Secretary Garrison officially admitted today he was assemlbl
ing transports at Galveston. Transports are also being arranged for
at New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and other Atlantic ports. A
vessel has brought arms for IIuerta to Puerto, Mex, eastern
terminus OF the Tehauntepec railroad and a japanese liner is reported
to have landed arms, artillery and munitions at Salina Cruz, the
western terminus of the railroad.
The administration is unwilling to interfere with landing of arms
for I4uerta. Secretary Bryan holds this cannot be prevented under
the armistice.
The cabinet division is undoubtedly responsible for the failure
to fe-enforce Funston before now. Secretary Garrison wants to do
it. Secretary Bryan has been fighting it. The president has held
back.
Mediation Is Shaky.
Wlth mediation hanging by a thread, with the war department
whipping things into shape for military operations on a large scale,
with tension high at Vera Cruz and the Huerta government driven
into desperate straits, the Mexican outlook today is extremely
threatening.
Funston is calling for more troops. The war department is pre-
pared to rush the Fourth and Sixth brigades of the second division
from Texas City to him. Other regular organizations are being got
ready for the field and the way is being paved for calling out national
guard forces. Much of the army is ready for campaigning down to
the last shoe lace. All the army officers want is the word to go in.
High army men today said troops might be ordered embarked for
Vera Cruz from Galveston and other points any hour. A campaign
to Mexico City is regarded as probably unavoidable.
Once it appears that the armistc has been broken and mediation
is off there will be nothing left but to throw troops enough into Vera
Cruz for a Mexico City campaign. The feeling here is that more
troops may be ordered to start for Vera Cruz any minute.
