Fifth brigade of the first division

that the brigade had been shipped and

Meantime, the department was
busied with conditions on the Texas

plans for further operations in the

ton at the Mexican seaport there will
be concentrated a force sufficient to
hold the city or to begin offensive OPP

away on the railroad line to Mexico
City.

would be undertaken into the terri
tory controlled by the Constitution

The possibility of requests OF sup
port from congress for carrying on
further operations by the president In
creased today. The war department
considered the need for volunteers and
estimated the funds that would be
needed for mobilizing the militia.
At the navy department Represen-

EXTENT OF OPERATIONS IN
MEXICO DEPENDS ON REBELS

Washington, April 24.-What effect
the Gnovement of land troops to Vera
Cruz and to the Mexican border,
coupled with the renewal Of the en-
barge on the shipment of munitions of
war into Mexico. will have on the at
titude of the Constitutionalists was
one of the chief questions which con-
fronted the Washington administra-
ton today. 1t was realized that upon
the attitude of the Constitutionalst
leader, General Carranza, to a great
extent hinged the extent of American
military operations in Mexico. In the
meantime. officials also were appar-
entity without any definite informat ton
regarding the plans of General Huerta,
although there were rumors as TO il
tentions of General Mas, the feder-
al commander who evacuated Vera
Cruz, to attack that city.
One of the encouraging features of
the situation was the apparent friend
illness manifested toward the United
States by General Villa, military lead
er OF the Constitutionalists in an in
terview with American Consul Caro-
theirs at Juarez and it was believed
that his attitude might have consider
able influence on General Carranza.
Considerable uneasinesS continued
TO be felt here over rumors of anti-
American demonstrations in Mexico
City, where there are still many Uni
ted States citizens and over more de-
finite reports Of sirnilar troubles at
Ensenada on the west coast of Mexico
where it was reported last night that
the American consulate had been at
tackled. Steps We're Immediately taken
to afford relief in the latter case by
the despatch of a gunboat from San
Diego. Its arrival at Ensenada was
hourly expected.
The tenseness of the general situa-
ton was heightened by the outward
evidences seen in the seVering Of all
formal connections between the two
countries by the almost simultaneous
departure from Washington of Next
can Charge Algara and from Mexico
City of Charge O'Shaughnessy. Con-
siderable significance is seen in the
election of Brazil to look after Am
erican interests in Mexico in the abb
sence of American representatives.
Where Brazil is not represented Am
erican interests will be cared for by
France.
Scenes of activity were in evidence
early today at the various departments
of the government Immediately con-
cerned with the Mexican situation In
the meantime members Of congress
are giving the closest attention to de-
velopments and it is considered not
improbable that action bearing upon
the situation may be taken by con-
gress.
The embargo in force today against
arms and ammunition all along the
Mexican border was a military meas
ure taken by the war department. It
was declared as a part of the opera
eions of the army and navy and no
action by the state department was
involved. BY this means the techni
cal re-esta blishment of the legal en-
barge. which it was thought might
have embarrassed the administration
in it's attitude toward the Constitu-
tionalIsts in Northern Mexico was
avoided The embargo will be en-
forced by the entire military Eorganiza-
ton on the border and under military
orders to customs authorities.
