HUERTA YIELDS 10 WILSON'S DEMAND (Continued from First Page.) pleased with Charge O’Shaughnessy for his close association with General Huerta. Secretary Tumulty said the president had always spoken of the American charge in a most compli- mentary manner and realized the dif- ficulty of his position. The messages from O'Shaughnessy apparently no longer are being delayed or intercepted. White House officials sald tney were coming through with regularity. President Wilson cancelled travel- ing reservations for tonight for White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., where he planned to join Mrs. Wilson. He may go tomorrow. Ambassadors Were Active, It was well understood in diplo- Charge spectively, had been active through their foreign offices in bringing about a relief of the Mexican crisis. Other Dispatches Expected. Other . dispatches from Charge O’Shaughnessy were expected today, but both President Wilson and Sec- dispatches already at hand® that Huerta had yielded to the pressure from Washington and the dispatch of ck up the demands. Diplomatic representatives in Mex- avert a hac. advised him that to apologize Just about the time Mr. O’Shaugh- Charge Algara, representing Huerta here, was ad- vised that some dispatches had been Teceived but was not fully informed He was given to understand that they brought “Fa- vorable news.” News Spreads Rapidly. Word of the promised rift in the stor.m clouds spread quickly to the ca_pltol, where the house foreign af- fairs committee had just adopted a Several resolu- to su.stain the president was adopteda) unanimously. The resolution will the crisis should not clear up finally and Mr, Wilson should find it neces- sary to lay the situation before con- gress. In the senate and house generally there was a mingled feeling of grati- fication and relief. Officials’ Opinions Vary, . Some officials, becaase of their long familiarity with the evasiveness of Huerta, were not inclined to be too sanguine over the dispatches from Charge O’Shaughnessy. Privately, they said they would be convinced when the salute actually was firea. Others, who knew of the great pres- sure brought upon Huerta, did not question that the dictator had seen the wisdom of yielding. It became known that Huerta haa been led to believe that his own state- ment of apology last Saturday was ample redress; but when President Wilson was apprised of the situation he was not satisfied and demanaed a salute. It was authoritatively stated that the only point remaining to be de- termined was the number of guns and that this would be speedily agreed up- on. At the state, war and navy de- partments officials considered the cri- Will Return Salute. President Wilson, describing his ad- vices from Mexico City as “very en- couraging,” told callers later today that there was no known precedent against returning a salute and that in the natural course the United States would return a salute when fired. Orders Not Changed, The president made it clear that orders to the Atlantic and. Pacific fleets had not been changed. No time limit has been set for the sfllutg, according to the president, and the .inal word on the Huerta offer had not passed at 3 p. m. Rebels Are Silent, In this critical situation, the con- stitutionalists, "who by their succes- victories sover the federal northern Mexico, but re- ports have reached Washington that cabinet toward Mexican waters and the relations be- tween the Huerta government _and the United States generally. ‘Washington representatives of constitutionalists have the telegraphed cautious policy and suggesting that no pronouncement of any kind be in- terjected into the -situation. The constitutionalists here are emphatic in their expressions that they do not recognize Huerta’s government or his right to conduct the international relations of the country, and declare that so long as territory controlled On the other hand they realize that the in- ternational situation in Mexico would be gravely complicated: if Huerta should regard American reprisals for the Tampico incident as sufficient provocation for war and call upon the people of Mexico to rally to the national defense. The constitution- alists, however, do not recognize as legally organized the senate in Mex- ico City, to which General Huerta and from whom he Is understood to be seeking authorization to formally Pacific Fleet Ordered. The order for ‘he Pacific fleet to | as witnesses. proceed to Mexican waters following so closely upon the dispatch of the Atlantic fleet gave naval officers here plenty of possibilities upon which to speculate. Constitutionalists were ‘in- terested to learn whether or not the Pacific fleet would concentrate at ports held by the federals or at Top- olobampo held by the rebels as well. Tampico, as well as most of the towns on the Pacific side, is not fortified, and according to the rules of civilized warfare, undefended towns would not be bombarded. It is gen- erally believed that aside from the moral value of the dispatch of so large a naval force to Mexican waters, the chief purpose of it is to place there large forces of bluejackets and marines for expeditionary movements in case of emergency. Two Americans Held. Two - Americans, Boyless and Far- ias, laborers on the San Enrique ranch, arrested in connection with tha murder of two federal soldiers, are being held in jail at Piedras Negras Their release has been urged by the American consular rep- resentatives, but the Mexican author- ities while asserting their belief in the ‘innocence. of the prisoners have or- dered them held pending an investi- gation, which probably will be ended tomorrow. Newspaper Raps ‘Wilson. London,. April - 16.—Contrasting the action’ of President Wilson in connec- tion with the arrest of American blue- jackets at Tampico with what was done when Willlam: 8. Benton, the British ranch- owner, who was killed at Juarez, the Manchester Guardian, one of the leading newspapers, says today: “Intervention which murder and rob- bery failed to bring about is appar- ently to be the punishment for a merely symbolic slight. on American dignity.” Mexican Policy Doubtful. Expressing its admiration for the ability and mqtives of President Wil- scn the Guardian says it is impossible | tc suppress doubts and misgivings on his Mexican policy. It continues: “Why should Villa murder with impunity and General Huerta be chas- tised with the whole strength of the right arm of the United States for a mere breach of international polite- ness? It should be far easier to bring Villa to a better frame of mind than to teach Huerta manners. In the cne case it would have been enough to threaten the rebels that the em- bargo on the exportation of arms and ammunition from the United States would be re-imposed, but what sort of guarantee is there that®the capture of Tampico by the American fleet will either mend Huerta’s manners or re- lieve the hardships of foreign subjects in Mexico or help any of the interests Fresident Wilson is anxious to serve? “If the United States is anxious for an excuse for intervention in Mexico, an insult to her flag will serve very well; but no one knows better than President Wilson that armed inter- vention once begun cannot easily be cenfined to the limits that are set for it at the beginning. It is next to im- possible for one country to make itself rartly responsible for the good gov- ernment of another and independent country.” ‘Work Being Rushed. Boston, April 16.—Work is being rushed on the cleaning of the battle- ships Virginia, Nebraska, Rhode Island jand Georgia, at the Navy Yard here in view of the announcement from ‘Washington that these vessels of the third division of the Atlantic fleet are to be sent to Mexico.

Wall Street, 10:45 l_,;'nA—Large of- ferings of the principal stocks were absorbed without seriously disturb- ing the level of prices in the early trading today. Steel, Amal, and Reading in particular, were put out in round amounts. There was a good demand, however, «and while the opening range was slightly lower the market soon hardened. The decline of the last few days put down quo- tations close to the year's low fig- ures, a fact which encouraged bullish traders to belicve a substantial up- turn might be expected soon. There ing and the absorptive power of the market soon caused the bears to de- sist in their efforts. On the rally New Haven gained a point. Closing.—The market closed strong. The upward movement continued in spasmodic fashion with Canadian Pa- cific and the metal shares making the most headway. Full recoveries were made in many instances.
