repeat that my government deplores

"R. ESTEVA RUIZ,
Acting Minister Of Foreign Relations"
Senator Emilio Rabasa and Sehores
Augustin Rodriguez and Luis Elguero,
the three delegates who are to repre-
sent Provisional President Huerta at
the mediation conference at Niagara
Falls, Canada, left here to-day to travel
10 their destination by way Of Vera
Cruz.
Sir Lionel Garden. the British Min
lister, to-day again advised British sub
jects to leave the capital.
There are about six hundred Ameri-
can citizens left in Mexico City.
Words of confidence in the Executive
accompanied the Senate's approval Of
the appointment of the peace delegates
yesterday afternoon.
The Brazilian Legation has received
notice OF the safe arrival at CoatZa-
coalcos of the large party Of Americans
who left the capital on Wednesday
night.
A fair number of Americans are ar
irving here from the interior Of the re-
public, and in telegram TO the Inte-
rior Department General Joaquin Mas
advises from Saltilo that a train with
many Americans on board left that
city yesterday for this capital.
1t is reiterated in official circles that
as fast as Americans arrive here and
express a wish to continue their jour-
ney facilities will be devised to enable
them to reach the coast in safety.
The text of the Senate's resolution
approving the Executives appointment
of peace delegates is as follows:
THE Senate ratifies with applause
the judicious appointment made by the
Executive in favor of Emilio Rabasa,
in the capacity of presiding officer, and
Don Agustin Rodriguez and Don Luis
Elguero that they may act as dele
gates of the Mexican government, and
they are authorized to adjust, debate,
negotiate and sign any arrangement or
treaty with the government of the
United States OF America with full
powers and authority as ample as may
be necessary for adjustment Of the con-
fiict that has arisen between the two
countries"
1t was proposed that the vote, in
stead Of being a rising one. should be
taken from each Senator individually
and by name. This was done, and the
appointments were ratified unani-
mously.

and for two weeks the state Department
had heard nothing from him. 1t was
feared that he had come to HARM ana
through a variety of channels the state
Department endeavored to obtain IN
formation as to his safety.
The French Legation in Mexico CITY
finally learned from the Mexican Minister
of War that Silliman was safe. He was
also informed that the American con-
sulate at Saltillo was under guard by
Federal forces.
The State Department is making IN

embassy staff departed from Mexico City
D'Antin remained behind. Since then

the department is anxious.

from the representatives Of the three
mediating powers that there was no bar
or hindrance in the agreement with the
United States against continuance Of
the Huerta governments measures for
suppression of the revolution.
The agreement to suspend hostilities
pending the settlement Of negotiations
not having been accepted by the Car

clare in their cable message to Senior

Of your excellency's government in re-
gard to the revolutionary forces.

the government of this country to the
revolutionists for securing arms, though

ment a prohibition is in force against
the introduction OF arms into Mexico,

had not taken the matter up WITH the
Gerr1au government Count Won Bern
storff. the German Ambassador, called
az the STATE Department this morning
hut after leaving Mr.. Bryan he said
that he had not discussed the matter
cf the shipment Of arms from Germany
to Mexico.
There n evidently some misunder-
standing concerning the German arms
which the administration is not yet
ready TO reveal It Is not believed
here that the German shippers would
voluntarily sacrifice profits by ordering
on their own volit!on that tho arms be
not delivered. 1t seems clear that TINS
government has brought some infiu-
ence to bear, probably through the
German government. on the consigners
OF the munitions OF war.
Mr.. Bryan said frankly this after
noon that he had no information con-
corning the matter except that from
Consul General Rodgers. He would
throw no light on the sources OF Mr.
Rodgers's information. nor why lnfor-
nation from Havana should be accept
ed as final.
Cargo from New York.
With no American warship at Puerto
Mexico and consequently without the
means Of preventing the landing OF
vit lon IA
might be used against American troops
later on, the only feasible method Of
effective action was an appeal to the
German government to stop the de-
livery. For its part Germany doubt
less would have been greatly embar-
raised by such request, for the reason
that it had no authority to interfere
with its own commercial lines in le-
ultimate business except in time of
war, and it is, of course, known to al
European governments that the gov
ernment Of the United States is not
ready TO admit the existence Of such
conditions.
II is assumed that the cargo was
taken at the shippers risk. and with
the understanding, perhaps. that it
would not be landed if the company
would thereby be embarrassed with its
relations with the United States gov
eminent.
From an unofficial source it was
learned that these arms and the am
munition, like the cargo on the Ypi-
ranga, turned back from Vera Cruz,
were originally shipped from New
York or some other Eastern port; at
any rate, that they were Of American
manufacture and were sent to Ham
turg as likely TO afford the easiest &C
cess TO the Mexican Gulf ports.
