tween the Huerta government and the
United States. The Mexican delegates,
Senior Rodriguez said would deal only
with external issues of the situation,
because of the attitude of Carranza
that an attempt to compose internal
affairs in Mexico would be beyond the
bounds of diplomatic activity.
Details of the final assault on Tam
pico after months of siege, which came
through slowly to-day, indicated that
reinforcements of artillery enabled
General Gonzales to drive the Federal
gunboats from their positions. Then,
under cover of firing from the large
guns, the Constitutionalists charged
into the town, the conflict ending with
desperate fighting in the plaza.
Fate in Doubt To-day
The fate of the Federals who fled
| from Tampico was in doubt to-day.
In some quarters belief was expressed
that they would be cut to pieces by
lintercepting Constitutionalists long be-
! fore they could hope to reach their
own lines south of San Luis Potosi.
Fears that they might attempt re-
prisals by setting fire to the huge
tanks of oil inland from the port were
not realized. Evidently they We're
moving hurriedly in the hope OF reach
ing a haven from pursuit.
Tampico, reports to-day indicate, and
Rear Admiral Mayo, with the Des
Moines and Dolphin, has resumed a
position in the river in front of the
town. 1t was known that practically
all foreigners had left Tampico before
Its evacuation by the F'ederals, and no
reports OF damage to foreign property

pairing to lead the assault against SAL
ltillo. His army had been provisioned
! for a thirty days campaign and 1T was
said that apparently there We're plenty
Of arms and ammunition for the siege.
Constitutionalist strategists were be-
lieved to have figured that If they took
Saltillo, the Federal garrison there
would concentrate at San Luis Potosi,
leaving that city as one of the points
where Huerta would make final
stand against the Constitutionalist
campaign aimed at Mexico City.
Reports Excite People

in the Parrai district must be under
operation in fifteen days or they would

apprehension in El Paso. Foreign cap
Iital in the Parral district is estimated
at from $50, 900 to $S0,000,000 and
the mine owners who were unwilling
to return under present conditions
were preparing to protest to the State
Department If reports of he order were

Washington, D. c.. May 15.-"All's

the movement of troops"
! This was the answer given at the
War and Navy Departments regarding
reports that Mexico City was i'll dis
order and that troops were about to
be rushed to the capital to protect the
foreign colony.
Mr.. Garrison has stated repeatedly
during the last few days that the War
Department is not expecting move
ment of troops, at least within the
next few days. He has also given
much publicity to the statement that
! the department is merely preparing to
meet any situation that may arise.
! While he does not specify the sit
uations to which he refers, it is gen.
orally understood that the only prepa-
ration being made for troops move
ments at this time are based upon the
fear that when Mexico City falls chaos
may result.

Washington, D. c., May 15.-While
the South American ENJOYS were pre-
pairing to go to Niagara Falls, where
they will complete arrangements for
peace negotiations and the American
mission preparing to leave here to-
morrow, immediate interest in the
Mexican situation centered in the Con-
stitutionalists' administration of their
new prize--the port of Tampico-and
plans for their campaign against Sal
tillo and San Luis Potosi.
Reports to the Navy Department
early to-day from Rear Admiral Mayo
stated that General Gonzales, the Car
rama commander at Tampico, has as

complete protection would be given to
American and other foreign property
about the seaport, including the i'm

First intimations of the score of
their authoriy were revealed In a
statement by Senor Rodriguez, spokes-
man for the party, who declared:

carry no formula, and we shall decide
according to our consciences, always
bearing in mind the nationl honor"

After his return to the capital We

foolhardy and surprise was manifested
that Velasco was not Immediately i'm
