PUERTO MEXICO, July l8.-Un-
Willingness to leave behind any
friends who want TO accompany him
into exile and failure to select
vessel 10 carry them beyond the
reach of the constitutiohalists re-
suited in the pOstponement by
Huerta Of his departure for at least
one day With continuous disregard
Tor his enemies in the interior. who
would shove him off Mexican soil if
they were able. Huerta shrugged his
shoulders and laughed at the diff
culties which force him to remain
in the country another twenty-four
hours; but most members of the
party showed much disappointment
because they can not get out before
tomorrow
Especially did the young women
display dissatisfaction For most of
them the trip means the pleasure of
visiting European cities and they de-
sire to hurry affairs. Huerta spent
a dull day, the greatest break in the
monOtony being his call late in the
afternoon on the captain of the
German cruiser Dresden. A small
crowd gathered TO watch him but
there was no evidence of emotion
other than curiosity Huerta went
over the side with the requisite
number of sailors at the rail, but
there was no salute Anything re-
sembling formality was lacking.
General Hernandez, who has been
governor of Puebla, arrived late on
a special train. General Corona, an
active supporter of Huerta and sew
eral other officers, are expected to
reach here before eX-President
Huerta departs. 1t has virtually
been decided that Huerta and Blan-
Quet will go TO Jamaica on the Dres
den. and it is equally certain that
the British cruiser Bristol will carry
no passengers
The Mexican gunboats Bravo and
Zaragoza received orders to coal and
prepare for the sea, and this is
taken to mean that the new govern
ment will place no obstacle in the
way of their use, should it finally be
determined, as appears likely, TO en-
ploy them for the transportation Of
the remainder of the party.
Huerta chatted freely with Captain
Kohler regarding Mexico. He said
the time had come he hoped, when
Mexico would hold its place among
other nations and be entitled to the
respect of all.
1T is civilization my country
needs" he said Mexico is woefully
lacking in education"
Captain Fanshaw of the Bristol
paid his respects to the eX-president
in the morning, as did also the COM
mander of the Dresden Until late
in the afternoon Huerta had not
called upon or seen his wife or other
women members of his family. Nor
had Blanquet seen Sonora Banquet
Notwithstanding the fact that only
customs warehouses separated the
two special trains.
Sonora Huerta and other women
Of the train who had been on the
Bristol were transferred to the Mex
lean gunboat Zaragoza at noon. They
then came ashore and had lunch in
one of the coaches of their train. In
the evening they visited the Dresden
this being the chief break in the
monotony for them also.
Housed in heated railway coaches
and forced to listen to the continu-
Gus grinding of trains and humping
cars, the stay of the women here
Is becoming almost intolerable. II
contrast. the soldiers accustomed tC
campaigning, seem to be enjoying
themselves. They and their "solda
deras" are huddling in the shadows
of the box cars and bathing be-
meath hydrants with happy uncon-
Germ, their camps suggesting thu
intimacy of home.
