HUERTA HAS WEEK
TO DECIDE COURSE
Believed He May Be Courting
Crisis to Unite Factions
in Mexico.

Gen. Huerta will have practically a
week in which to decide whether he will
recede from his position OF refusal to
order national salute of twenty-one
guns to the Stars and Stripes.
Though the battleships under Rear
Admiral Badger are steaming away from
Hampton roads today. it will he about
week before they will be assembled
at Tampico
Administration optmists say that the
President and the cabinet expect that
Gen. Huerta will yield before the fleet is
concentrated in position for offensive ac-
ton against the federal regime
Others. and they include some of those
best informed regarding the state of
warfare in Mexico, say that the admin
istration is very averse to starting a
war, and that the hostile movement
against the Huerta regime is merely a.
show of force to intimidate Huerta into
acceding to Admiral Mayo's demand
which the administration has emphati-
cally indorsed. Those who have had in
innate association with Huerta and have
studied his methods assert that if this
concentration of warships is a bluff
Huerta will call the bluff and force tho
hand of the United States.

at Torreon have been defeated and ad

Velasco have again been defeated at San

ceeding to Saltillo with the avowed de-
termination to break their way into Mex
leo City within two weeks. it is believed
by many that Gen Huerta courts a
crisis that might unite the two factions
in Mexico against a common assailant
The crisis in the situation is expected
to come If Gen Huerta declines to yield

being discussed among naval officers
