Reports from various parts of the

Enthusiastically in the work and made

While in scme ways it was nm
fortunate that the previous rains
made !mpra-ticable the accomplish
ment Of the intended task hore. the
rlans are still to be carried ont ol
the 22nd, one week later than the
Frevolsly arranged for date.
The enthusiasm aroused by the
originators of the movement is too
deeply ,ooted to admit of it's wan
ing in one shcrt week, rather is it
believed that it will increase, as pre-
liminary work has already been
! done b. the road commissioners
/ which will render tile work Of tho
volunteers more effective.
The material ordered is on tbs
track, ready for placing and the
mad has been seraped from the sur

more effective the operations of the

No time has been set for the fir

that while many Of the vessels viii

President Hucrta's offer and rc-

President Wilson to ask for an opin-

to return a salute.

Washington, April 16.--The fol-
lowing statement on the Mexican
situation was issued today as rep
tho vtswz ef President
Wilson and the Administration:
'In discussion in official circles
In Washington of the present Mexi-
can situation, the following points
have been very much dwelt upon:
at has been pointed out that in
considering the somewhat delicate
situation in Mexico. the unpleasant
incident at Tampicl must not be
thought of alone For some time
past the de facto Government of
Mexico has seemed TO think mere
apologies sufficient when the rights
of American citizens or the dignity
Of the Government of the United
States were involved, and has appar-
entity made no attempt at either
reparation or the effective corree-
ton of the serious derelictlons OF It's
civil and military officers.
Immediately after the incident
at Tampieo an orderly from one Of
tho ships OF the United States in
the harbor of Vera Cruz who had
been sent ashore 20 the postoffice
for the ships mail, and who was in
uniform and who had the Official
mail bag cn his back. which was
significant that he was an orderly
from fho snip, was arrested by local
authorities
He vas subsequently released
and nominal punishment inflicted
upon the officer who had arrested
him, bat it was significant that an
orderly from the fleet of the United
States vas picked out from tile many
persons constantly going ashore on
various errands from the various
ships in the harbor representing sew
eral nations,
Most serious Of all, the officials
in charge of the telegraph Office at
