REPRESENTATIVES OF FOREIGN
NATIONS WIRE DECISION TO
IN CITY is IMMINENT.
MOST CRITICAL PERIOD
SINCE HUERTA REGIME
Secretary Bryan Receives No Word
From Latest Representations to
Carranza Against General Obre-
CONS Threat to Leave City
Unprotected.

Washington, March S.-Diplomatic
representatives of foreign nations will
leave Mexico City in a body.
This decision, wired to Washington,
further complicated the Mexican situa-
ton, brought to a new point of anxi-
ETY. by the imminence Of starvation in
the capital, and the refusal of General
Oregon, Carranza's lieutenant, to ac-
cePt aid offered by foreign residents
of the city.
The situation, topped by this latest
development, was admitted in all quar-
tiers to be more critical than 1t has
been at any time since Huerta precipi-
tated the landing Of troops at Vera
Cruz.
Bryan Admits Situation Is Bad.
Secretary Bryan had received no
word from the latest representations
to CarranZa against General Obre-
CONS DEGREES I'm Mexico City and his
threat to leave the capital unprotected,
with water and light plants out of
commission and the attendant posi-
bilities of looting and killing. Mr..
Bryan said the situation continued to
be bad.
Dispatches telling OF the decision of
the foreign diplomatic corps to leave
Mexico City were received here by Eu-
ropean diplomatists and forwarded to
their governments. Some definite de-
velopment was expected in diplomat
ic circles as the result of the decision.
Where the diplomatists would go was
the subject of some speculation. In
asmuch as the conditions which are
forcing them to leave are being i'm
posed by Carranza's commander, Obre-
gon, 1t was pointed out they hardly
would go TO Vera Cruz.
Villa has invited the diplomatic
corps to join him at his capital in Chi
hauhau. To do so, ii was pointed out,
might be construed as recognition of
his faction.
Says Danger Exaggerated.
Without diplomatic representatives
in Mexico City, the capital and a large
portion of the distracted country would
practically be cut off from the world,
while il is feared all foreigners would
be at the mercy of the factions.
