taken on board the United state. cruiser
Des Mones. which is tied up to the dock
at Tampico. All American women and
children have been brought In from out
lying points, with the exception of those
at Labarra. Those who were at that
point boarded the German tank ship
Osa2e. None of the refugees desired to
leave Tampico permanently. according to
Admiral Mayo. but all wish only to reach
places OF refuge during the actual fight
ing for poss ssion of the city.
The E'ederals are hanging some of
their prisoners. Admiral Mayo is in
formed. Two women were reported to
have been hanged because they were at
tempting to release prisoners held In the
barracks. \ repel prisoner was HANGED
for having rifle bullets in his possession.
cretary Bryan said to-day that no
representations have been made to this
Government by any Of the Governments
whose nationals have large interests at
ranpicO. None Is expected. IL was said,
because the presence Of the British, Ger
man. Spanish and French warships at
Tampico gives the representatives OF
those Governments on the spot nm oppor-
tunity 10 take whatever action they may
consider proper In behalf of their clti-

Bryan Appeals for spanSards.
Villas expulsion OF the 600 Spaniards
from Torreon b ing an accomplished fact.
Mr.. Rryan is now asking Carranza not to
authorize any general order or policy for
the expulsion of Spaniards wherever
found In rebel territory. Unofficial ad-
Vices indicate that CRrranza has already
given his approval 10 the policy inaugu-
rated by Villa and adopted by other lead
ers TO the effect that Spaniards shall be
driven out of Mexico as rapidly as pos
sible.
The State Department In its represen-
tations to Carranza virtually admitted the
right OF the Constitutionalists TO e-:pel
from Mexico Spaniards alleged to ha' =
aided the Federals. but obje its 20 a
sweeping declaration In advance that all
Spaniards are assumed to be supporting
the enemy.
1t Is considered here. however. that in
practice the distinction asked for by Sec
rotary Bryan will amount to nothing.
Villa deported 6l2 :paniards from Chi
huahua within forty-eight hours after ,
took the city on the charge that he knew
them to have ciyen aid to e Federals
AS this included all the spanish reside nts
of the city. IL Is not believed here that
, villa made even a pretense 'f investigat-
Ing individual cases.
His claim that they were all guilty of
aiding the enemy has been accepted by
the State Department. for the present at
least. and II IL believed that the same will
occur whenever villa OF 1oHStltu-
tionalist leaders pledged TO this pol cy
take other cities Consequently. while DIS
avowing any intention OF sui g ran
against all SpanNirds the me practical
result would be achieved.
Mr.. Bryan said to-day that no CONF laint
had been made by the BIRTHS AMBASSADOR
against the reported coercion Of the Brit
ish Vice-Consul at Torreon. Mr. ,um-
! mings, into carrying to Gen. Velasco a

the British Embassy 1t was said no nfor'
