Attempt is made on
Life Of Mayor Mitchell

sFs
New York, April 17.-An attempt
was made to assassinate Mayor John
Purroy Mitchell as he was leaving the
city hall this afternoon. The shot
missed Mitchell but hit Corporation
Counsel Polk.
The would-be assassin was an old
man and was caught by Mayor Nit
chel himself.
The mayor had Just stepped into his
automobile when the shot was fired.
Mr.. Polk was just stepping into the
car to join the mayor when the shot
was fired. Mitchell leaped out OF the
car and seized the Would-be assassin.
Polk received bullet in the chin.
The bali made only flesh wound and
glanced. He was dazed BY the shock
and several persons ran TO his assist
9ance. 1T was said TINS the wound
was not serious.
There was an enormous MONDAY
crowd in City Hall square at the time
The first report was that the mayor
had been struck by the bullet and
many persons rushed to his side.
The mayor, however, appeared to
be cool and insisted that no bullet
struck him.

The crowd by that time was enor

were thrown about the police station

Vera Cruz until further notice.
1t Is Up to Huerta.

" y
No advancement further than Vera
Cruz on the part Of the United States
forces, it was made plain, would be
undertaken unless some overt act on
the part of Huerta and his followers
should precipitate further trouble and
make more aggressive action neces-
sary.
Situation Appears Ominous.
Despite the purpose of the admins
tration to confne the operations to
Vera Cruz, the situation took on an
ominous aspect, which indicated that
more serious consequences cannot be
ayerted. Though not officially an
nounced, it was reported on high au-
thority that senor Algara, the Mexican
charge d'affaires, had been directed
by Huerta to ask for his passports and
that the Americ:==s charge at Mexico
City. Mr. o'shaashnessey had been
asked to leave.
Mexlcans are Aroused.
With this prospective hrsaking OF
.oa diplomatic negotiations, together
with the reports Of aroused feeling
among the Mexicans, the feeling here
is that it may be necessary in the
near future to resist aoases attacks
from Mexican federal soldiers e
Everything is in readiness for ac
tual wafare If it must come, and Con

tAfying the president's course thus

The Effect at
w Washington

Washington, April 22.-'I'm sorry,
terribly sorry" were President Will
sons first words when news of loss of
life in taking Vera Cruz reached him.
Today the president was sad and
disheartened. AS he walked slowly
to his Office through the White House,
his head was bowed and his face show
ed deep feeling.
The president had hoped the seiz-
ure of Vera Cruz ght have been
accomplished without loss of life He
has determined, however, that there
shall be no backward step. He is try
ing to avert war and prevent further
bloodshed, but he realized that the
American people want to see the dig-
nifty of the flag upheld.
For the present the United States
will content itself with holding the
customs house at Vera Cruz, collecting
duties and preventing SHIPMENTS Of
arms from reaching Hatferta.
Tampico Next.
Tampico is the next objective point
1t has not yet been decided whether
a blockade will be maintained there
or the customs house seized. The
passage of the resolution in Congress
has given the president the feeling
that he is justiaed in going further
ahead nov with aggressive steps, but
he wants to have the full effect of the
seizure OF Vera Cruz impressed upon
Huerta with the hope that he may be
brought to terms without plunging fur
ther into armed conflict.
Bryan Pale This Morning.
Secretary Bryan was the presidents
first visitor early today. He, too,
showed a change in demeanor. His
eyes were sleepless and his face ashen
white. He denied a report in circu-
lation that Charge o'Shaughnessey
had been given his passports or was
about to be recalled, or that Charge
Algara was to be given his passports.
Mr.. Bryan said he had been in COM
munication with Mexico City late yes
terday. No disturbances in Mexico
City, or any demand against Amer
leans had been reported. He said he
thought Charge o'Shaughnessey's re-
port was filed late yesterday after
noon.
Worried Over o'shaushnessey.
Mr.. Bryan appeared worried about
Mr.. O'Shaughnessey, and today cabled
him to report about conditions in
Mexico City. The secretary was sure,
however, that If anything had happen
ed to o'Shaughnessey other Legations
4 ii Mexico City would have. through
their home government. informed the
United States.
Press reports have stated that tele-
graph wires from Mexico City to Vera
Cruz were cut yesterday. which would
probably account for the lack Of in
\ formation. ss
1t was made apparent in conference
at the White House that the United
States viii @sit tight" ct Vera Cruz
and that no furher steps of pacifca-
tion will be taken at this time:
No Immediate Action at Tampico.
For the present II was declared on
