According TO these reports Gen. Cutter

One report stated that for a time the
Mexican capital was IN turmoil and that
general looting was feared. Gen. Cara
took effective measures for policing the
city however. and the situation Is said
to be fairly quiet. The house OF British
subject was entered. according to a report
received at the British Embassy, but this
was the only case reported.
Gen. Cara In a statement issued yes
terday declared that Gutierrez In advance
OF his departure had ordered the evacua-

small force left there Cara declared
this would have left the city defenceless
and he Immediately took charge in the in

According TO this statement. Gutierrez

from Carranza a copy OF his decree with
respect TO oil properties, accompanied BY
the explanation that companies obeying
his regulations need fear no harm. The
expectation OF oil was forbidden, il was
explained, because some Of the companies
had not paid expectation taxes due.
Unofficial reports indicated that the
companies in question were paying the
sums demanded for the sake of being per-
mitted TO continue operations and that
these payments were nothing less than
forced contributions as the taxes In
