Preparing To Leave America

Washington, April 22-Charge AL
CARA of the Mexican embassy here,
having received messages from Mex
leo City early in the day, intimating
that he mighe be recalle' at any min
ute, was in constant expectation to-
night that Gen. Huerta would notify

This was the one possibility discussed
in Administration circles all day as

Of details Of the fighting at Vera
Cruz were chief developments of the
day. Officials expressed themselves
as greatly pleased with the prompt
ness Of Rear Admiral Fletcher's forces
in taking possession of Vera Cruz and
restoring order there.
Future steps are uncertain. The
President has determined that Ibis
course shall be gradual. No orders
have been issued to seize the custom
house at Tampico. 1t is the purpose
of the Administration to keep order
in Vera Cruz and await the full ef-
feet on Huerta of the first American
act Of reprisal.
There Is every reason to believe
that the railroad running inland from
Vera Cruz for 20 miles, together with
a valuable trestle, will be policed by
American marines and bluejackets.
This section of the railroad is of SUI
preme importance should future de-.
velopments require a movement on
Mexico City.
Beyond the holding of Vera Cruz
and this railroad. the Washington
Government does not want to act at
present, but persons in the confidence
of the administration admit that ac-
ton by Huerta or Carranza at any
time may alter plans.
A high Government official made
public a letter from friend whom he
regarded as trustworthy which read
as follows:
